Meet Whalesburg Maintenance Release 0.5.3: bringing you the most anticipated front end features!Hello again to our long term supporters and welcome to our hundreds of newly joined miners!
You may have noticed crazy growth in the number of miners and the pool hashrate over the past couple of weeks, despite the recent market decline. Miners stay strong!
In case you were wondering what prompted the spike, the answer is that we have launched a massive YouTube marketing campaign that caused a bit of a stir within the Russian miner community. We will get everyone talking about Whalesburg soon!
On the topic of product development, the past few weeks have been incredibly busy for our development team as we are approaching the token unlock and token integration (update coming soon). Not to mention we are working on adding new Ethash coins and the CryptoNight algorithm.
Meanwhile, we still found time to bring you some exciting new features in this latest release.
Enjoy!
UX/UI
Minimum Payout
This is by far the most requested feature ever. Yes, now you can manually change the minimum payout amount in your account settings

Multi wallet monitoring via Telegram Bot
Many of our miners have been asking for the option to do multi wallet monitoring. With this release, you can add up to five wallets that you would like to monitor. This means you can get convenient notifications from our bot if there’s a problem with your farm. In case miners wish to add more than five wallets, we will add such option later.

Easy registration
In order to speed up the registration process, now when you enter the wallet, the system identifies whether you are in the referral program. This means that you won’t have to enter a promo code again.

For your convenience we have also added a description for errors that occur when you have entered the wallet that mined with us before.

Enabled instant refresh of the rewards list. This means now you don’t have to wait for the table to update.

Under the Hood Maintenance
As we are growing rapidly, we care more and more about stability and security of the pool. In order to be able to scale easily and to get the best performance possible, we have added more CPUs which resulted in significantly increased pool performance.
Good news: we work for ALL miners and therefore we’ve come up with a solution for miners with 3GB cards.
Keep an eye out for our next update. Very exciting features are coming soon!
