[2.5+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); World's First Mining Pool

[Crypt_Current]

4 hours ago actually; still nothing 

Transaction is in blockchain already:

Looks like blockexplorer is stucked (again). Not so unusual...

Cool; yeah no worries.  I looked at my client in passing a few minutes ago and noticed the payout is there and everything is fine.

I did not know that blockexplorer.com sometimes has this problem of getting stuck!  For some reason, the no-frills plain look of blockexplorer was interpreted by me as "more official looking" than blockchain.info, so I had come to mainly trust it.  Now going forward I will check that trust with the alternate source.

Thank you Slush for giving this trivial matter such prompt attention!

Does GUIminer now report stales? Can you send me a screenshot of your issue?

I can say for sure that you did not have 0 stales per 100k accepted before :-).

People asked me how to disable namecoin mining. It was impossible until now, but now you can just empty namecoin address and save the form. After confirming the email, you won't hear about namecoin anymore...

As I promised months ago, in effect since block #209295, pool is now giving transaction fees to miners!

I decided to implement such feature only to Stratum pool, so if you want to collect transaction fees, please use some miner with native Stratum support (latest GUIminer, cgminer, bfgminer, poclbm) or use your preferred miner with Stratum proxy. Setting up Stratum mining will take literally 5 minutes and you will get lower stales and now transaction fees!

It works very well, I can confirm. Thanks Slush.

Wait...GUIminer was finally updated for Stratum!?  Why haven't I heard this breaking news.

How can i see if it is working? (=

[slush]

If you mean guiminer - it prints "diverging to stratum" or something similar to console.

Well, latest guiminer contains updated poclbm with stratum support. As far as 80% of users are using poclbm backend, i tried to simplify the statement...

Full stratum implementation for guiminer is nontrivial and I'm lacking the time to do it properly.

Yeah, I knew it wouldn't work with all GUIminer kernels since that would require a working phoenix implementation.  But like you said, almost everybody on GUIminer uses poclbm since that's the default kernel.  It's still great news, since I've noticed far more users on GUIminer than I originally thought.

rejects over 1% wtf?

There may be more factors involved, but I definitely recommend you to use Stratum interface.

I'd be willing to bet that in about 26 hours, we'll get a flood of people on this thread with a post count of less than 10 asking why their reward just got cut in half...

[slush]

Yes, I expect the same :-). I just found nice article, it's worth reading for newbies: http://bitcoinmagazine.net/block-reward-halving-a-guide/

I also predict that if the exchange rate doesn't significantly rise in the next few weeks, several pools will close their doors (not slush). They have fixed overhead (hosting, bandwidth, etc) that won't go away and suddenly they will be earning half as much in fees.
