Probably because pippins is sick of all the bullshit you a scammer your stealing hashrate bullshit because people seam to think if your miner says 20mh and the pool says 18mh that means 2mh of hashrate is being stolen well shot doesn't work like that the pool side is a estimate being made by the shares your miner submits

Shame I really liked zergpool only had that one issue which was sorted quite quickly via discord the next morning then a few hours later saw the closing notification

I will miss this pool, it was the best one.
Pinpins really put in the effort, but I guess there's a point when dealing with the nonsense just ain't worth it any more.

Very sad to see the pool shutting down. I just wanted to say thank you to Pinpins and everyone else involved for the hard work and dedication you’ve put into this project. I’ve been using the pool almost since inception and I never experienced any major issues or felt cheated out of any earnings. It’s been a good run. Good luck in your future endeavors.

I just find it extremely questionable that no advanced notice was given on shutting down, except the notice itself. I loved this pool with all the algo that the other btc-payout pools didn't have. But i find it questionable that no advance notice, nor reason was given. Did the russian mafia catch up to him?
with advanced notice, i'm sure a few of us could have gotten above the minimum threshold.

The payouts are finished (it was posted on discord yesterday) - if you're below the threshold you don't get a payout.
(update: altcoin payouts - other than btc/ltc) didnt work, ad he will do the rest today)

I didn't reach to the threshold because he shut down the pool. So he is a Scammer If there were 1000 miners like me, he robbed about BTC1= $6300

So he is a Scammer If there were 1000 miners like me, he robbed about BTC1= $6300 Totally agree with this, I don't get how a pool can post a 24hr closure with no warning and just take anything they want from those that didn't make the cut on reaching minimums. Definitely was not handled morally in that aspect. Which astounds me a lot seeing I actually felt I could trust this place. Me, didn't catch this news in time, I do profit switching so fell under this amount. Is it alot of money? not for me personally but this pool definitely wasted my power bill when I could have had the warning in advance and put my resources on other pools that actually stick around. Not cool but enjoy the lump sum from everyone, if this pool ever pops up again, won't be adding it to my list on Awesome Miner ever again. This seems to be the scam exit year for so many pools and projects....but its good thing maybe in the long run, with some luck these types get out of the industry and maybe 2019 we can less of that activity on users trying to back Crypto as lifers

we removed the pool from our autoswitching software as soon as we got the news (and all users with our clients were automatically updated) - still lots of users miss some bits because of threshold. We also lost some mining fees there.
Personally I would be curious what happened, that he shut down the pool in such a short timeframe. Maybe he was hacked (by some stupidity, so he don't want to say) and pays from his own pocket, maybe it's some sort of blackmail, maybe tax reasons, maybe investigations (in that case he would not be allowed to say anything)
