Why do people continue to mine on AntPool? Their latest empty block was 405557. Their last block was very close to empty - it only had 1 transaction.
So, let's take a look at my logs for blocks 405556 and 405557...

According to pool bench, for those two blocks, I was number 2 and number 3 fastest pool to send stratum notification out.
Looks like there were plenty of transactions that could have been included - and
would have been included had it been my pool solving the block.
Spread the word... stop mining on SPV pools.
