Minergate unconfirmed balance?

[itssawai]

I'm mining Monero on minergate pool using ccminer for a week, but all the amount I've mined till now is showing in unconfirmed balance and I can't use it in any way. What should I do now? How to confirm or withdraw it?

Minergate gives a bit more information about their so-called "unconfirmed" balance at https://minergate.com/faq/what-is-unconfirmed-balance - but not really anything useful. However, they're not a very popular pool and I suspect partially due to their lack of transparency on issues like this (as others have noticed) I tend to prefer other pools like dwarfpool or nanopool, albeit they're a bit harder to get set up.

There's more info here: http://miner.mars-media.net/2017/08/14/minergate-balance-confirmation/
but I agree with the general sentiment that Minergate is a bit shady.
