Title: What is Slush doing with all the NMC? Post by: GriffinHeart on September 13, 2015, 09:48:15 AM So, namecoin and bitcoin have merged mining, we all know that, heck, the main dashboard on the slush's pool website shows all the namecoin blocks that are discovered and mined... So they've disabled the namecoin payouts for years now, namecoin is still being mined by the pool... So where is all the namecoins mined going? Straight into his pocket? 1 NMC = ~ 40 US cents and the pool's scoring hashrate is ~ 30 Petahashes. That is a hell of a lot of coin. If it isn't going down his fat gullet, then where is all of it disappearing to?

Slush wasn't merged mining for over a year, it only just started up again (I assume it's an option on the site somewhere to opt-in to receiving them). And while 1 NMC = $0.40, a pool only generates ~2.5 NMC blocks per BTC block. Title: Re: What is Slush doing with all the NMC?

under the rewards page my bad https://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/profile/rewards/?page=1 These links may or may not answer all your questions, if you look at the top of the rewards page there is link to check the NMC you are mining.

It was pointed out in the post above yours if you read it. Slush converts the NMC to BTC and credits it to miners as BTC. Title: Re: What is Slush doing with all the NMC?

Ah, that's a shame, the pool could've done a world of good for Namecoin if they just left it as it was. |
