Title: Generated a tiny amount? Post by: Gareth Nelson on May 21, 2011, 02:14:39 AM I thought new blocks were meant to generate 50BTC?
What's this in my client? http://image.bayimg.com/paiceaadd.jpg Title: Re: Generated a tiny amount? Post by: fpgaminer on May 21, 2011, 02:15:43 AM Are you part of a pool? Some pools send their payouts with the block that gets generated, so it shows up in everyone's client as Generated.

It may have been some transaction fees. Title: Re: Generated a tiny amount?

It may have been some transaction fees. Shouldn't that only come alongside an actual 50BTC block? Title: Re: Generated a tiny amount?

Title: Re: Generated a tiny amount? Post by: grndzero on May 21, 2011, 05:27:23 AM Did you ever connect to Eliguis (Luke-Jr's) pool. It doesn't usually distribute payments < 1 BTC unless you haven't connected in which case it will payout whatever is left in your account.
Other than that it could be someone transposed a character in their bitcoin address and it happens to match yours. Or it could be a bitcoin address clash even though the possibility is statistically minute. EDIT: Doesn't distribute payments < 1 BTC unless you haven't connected for a week or more.

I've connected once to Eliguis, found that the balance on coin-explorer was actually going backwards so didn't bother with it any further - that's probably what happened. Thanks. |
