Waffle (or anyone else), One of my recent payments (at approximately 18:00 (GMT) yesterday, 16th) was for 0.005, which is less than the usual threshold of 0.01. Not complaining or anything, just curious why this happened. Don't worry if you don't have time to explain, I don't have a problem with it at all, was just wondering.  Has it happened to anyone else? |

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

When am I paid?
Payouts are processed multiple times a day, and anyone with a balance over 0.01 BTC is automatically paid in order of when you reached the threshold. On Sundays we pay everyone with a balance over 0.001. |

Yes. I believe it is normal. I think once a week they pay out under 10mBTC balances. |
BTC, BCH, BTG, UTC

Thank you! Feeling silly for missing that bit.  It's just that it's never happened before (and I imagine I always have some positive balance, and have been mining here nearly from the beginning), so that's why I thought it was out of the ordinary... When am I paid?

On Sundays we pay everyone with a balance over 0.001. Its possible you've never seen one before just due to when payouts went out previous to the sunday payout. Perhaps on last saturday you just happened to have over 0.01, so it looked like a normal payout (maybe the payout before that was early, so it had more time to accrue, etc). |

Thanks for the further clarification Waffle, makes perfect sense. And thanks for all your hard work! |

What about mine DOGE, still will be profitable for multipool after the changes ?
No one can reliably answer this question, and if they could predict the future, then I am not sure why they would be spending any time here. (unless their future vision were limited to this realm) If anyone can give you a definite answer on this, they are only going to be as accurate as a coin flip. So reach into your pocket or just wait and see... |

So a quick update about whats being worked on (today is a WP work day, woo woo!)
Our stratum endpoints (the geo located ones) are still a bit overloaded. They were never intended to get this much traffic really. One weekend I was like "middlecoin is kinda cool eh, I bet I could do that", and hacked together the initial version of WP. It was built reasonably well (no glaring performance issues, etc), but it certainly wasn't designed to eat double the traffic that MC was taking (at that point I had only dreamt of being half the hashrate of MC), so the "what if it hits 30GHs" wasn't a real question.
Essentially, I think our endpoint code is holding us back a bit (which is awesome to say, because we're staying competetive/on-top with sub-par code). So today is me furiously hacking away and testing new code. Our existing stuff is a terrible mix of Python, PHP, and bash scripts. I'd like to move it to C/C++ for the performance gain (I love me some C). I doubt I'll get it done today, and if I do, it certainly won't be in production, but just in testing with a small fraction of the pool.
The reason I think it is holding us back is a cascading effect. When a block is submitted, the current system has to do a ton of things (validate the block, submit to daemon, broadcast internally, broadcast externally, etc). During that time, that particular server locks up a bit (and this is the part thats tough to track down unfortunately), and stops processing incoming shares for a few seconds, and then processes them a bit later. During that time (and depending on the time it locks up), some clients disconnect since they think we're not responding quickly enough, and get shifted to a different server via the loadbalancer (spiking load on the other boxes, which makes them more likely to find a block and do the same thing to other servers). Also during that 5ish seconds when we're not processing data during a submit, with lower difficulty coins, thats a full time for block (one of the reasons I think we're having trouble with small coin mining).
We'll see how it goes, but thats the next major thing on my list for today.

Nice, perfectly correlates with my miner disconnecting every minute. I was like "a server can't get offline and be back available in 10 seconds, pings are okay too, something else is the reason for that..."

Why does your hashrate jump all over the place?
Is that because of the coin, or the coins difficulty at the time?
Eg you were mining LTC at 30GH/s
Now you are Hashrate: 11.92 GH/s for Dodge?

Because we have a single miner who contributes close to 20GHs, and he jumps on/off whenever he chooses |

This whole pools hashrate is 30Ghs with around 5000 people, Is that 20ghs included or that ramps up to 50ghs when there on... I cant see that being a single miner, is it possible to aim a private pool at this multipool or possibly 300 different miners with 1 address and they are working together.. |

WF confirmed, its just one guy! (maybe its the representative)... I really would like to see pictures of this imense warehouse... think about it... 20GHash! How many GPU´s would have to be to achive this kind of power... Even with gridseed chips (5 per usb is 330khash), how many would be needed to archive the 20000 Mhash that is now! Its just insane...

He'll be back. He's currently raping the ghash.io 2x reward down to 1.25 single handed... pretty sweet.

The whale's not gone, he's probably just busy making arrangements to bring another 5 megawatts of electricity into his server farm... |
