then hit sign and copy/paste the signature. After you submit changes, it will say signed successfully on top of the page.

What do i have to write in the textbox below?
My Eligius - 2013-11-14 18:32:48 UTC - NMC_Address=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ?

You copy and paste everything in the first box on Eligius to your "Sign Message" in Bitcoin-Qt.  Press the "Sign Message" button, then copy and paste the string of characters in to the second box on Eligius.  If it works you'll see "Options changed successfully!" or something similar half way down the screen.

Armory 0.89.99.14-testing supports Bitcoin-Qt-compatible message signing, so Armory users can use My Eligius and similar functionality

Thx folks, it worked

I notice my last payout from Eligius has a regular icon rather than the usual crossed hammers.  Anything?

Manual payout to catch up the payout queue.  Happens occasionally.  Lately about once every few days, actually.

I saw that 10 block line ahead of my last payout as well as some strange effects last night, since explained, and wondered if the reward for those 10 blocks had gone astray.  Also wondered if the connect failures to mining.eligius.st:3334, now understood to be depreciated in favor of stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 or getwork.mining.eligius.st:8337, could have reduced funds for payout.  But you say this happens every few days?

Greetings Eligius Miners,

Just wanted to make note here that Eligius is the first pool to tentatively adopt a patch to our mining node to help deter address reuse. Due to concerns about people promoting address whitelisting/blacklisting in Bitcoin we're trying out an experimental feature that prioritizes transactions which use fresh addresses, as Bitcoin was designed to expect from the start.

This is experimental, has no real effect on miners or earnings, etc, and will be adjusted as needed as the patches evolve from here on.

Happy mining!

Beyond encouraging behavior that improves privacy for everyone and making censorship more of a non-starter, this has a benefit of giving naturally more equitable access to the shared resource of the blockchain:  If someone is self-identifying as a single user by using an address over and over again, why not use that information to give other transactions (which may all be from independent users) more equal access?

I'm kind of confused about what this means.  Are you saying every time the pool solves a block I should start mining with a new payment address?  Or are you saying that every time the pool solves a block the rewards will be sent out to miners from a unique address?

If I read correctly, neither.

The pool would prefer transactions to addresses which have not been reused.

Are you saying it would prefer addresses that have no record of use in the current block chain?  If I'm understanding it correctly, it seems like this would be a tricky situation because of the payout method used on this pool.  I was operating under the assumption that I would continue to mine until my reward reached something around 0.16xxxxxx, at which time it would enter the payout queue.  If I wasn't at the computer to immediately switch to a new address I would continue to accrue a small amount of coins that would probably be lost after switching to a new address because they are under the minimum limit.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks!

Chad

If it has no real effect, what exactly is the deterrent ?

And the confusion begins... I'll just quote myself:

Wow.

You make a confusing announcement almost devoid of real information, and then respond condescendingly when people unsurprisingly have questions.

Wow.  That is just not necessary dude.

A better response would be to just explain the change in more detail.

Its not confusing.  The announcement was quite clear.  And I'm not being condescending. The specific questions posed were answered in the announcement already in the one line I reiterated.

There is also a link to the thread containing more detail in my initial post...

I get that the announcement stated that there were no changes that affected miners, but people read these things quickly and it is certainly not surprising or unexpected that you would get such questions - and even those of us who were not confused would still like to know more detail about this change.

I don't know how you can say you were not being condescending.  Reread your response and think about how it reads to the people you were responding to.

It was more a joke really, mainly because I was just talking on IRC about how people were going to be confused.  I do apologize if it came off offensively, however, as that was not my intent.

In any case, full details about the patch are in fact in the thread I linked to, and that opening post includes details and a link to the actual source changes to bitcoind.

Hi,

How long it take for payouts to be confirmed? My one seems to be taking hours.
