/**
* This defines how rewards are paid to users.
*
* Explanation:
*
* Proportional + PPLNS Payout System
* When running a pool on fixed mode, each block will be paid
* out as defined in `reward`. If you wish to pass transaction
* fees inside discovered blocks on to user, set this to `block`.
* This is really helpful for altcoins with dynamic block values!
*
* PPS Payout System
* If set to `fixed`, all PPS values are based on the `reward` setting.
* If you set it to `block` you will calculate the current round based
* on the previous block value. The idea is to pass the block of the
* last round on to the users. If no previous block is found, PPS value
* will fall back to the fixed value set in `reward`. Ensure you don't
* overpay users in the first round!
*
* Available options:
* reward_type:
* fixed : Fixed value according to `reward` setting
* block : Dynamic value based on block amount
* reward:
* float value : Any value of your choice but should reflect base block values
*
* Default:
* reward_type = `fixed`
* reward = 50
*

$config['reward_type'] = 'block';
$config['reward'] = 450;
That means calculate estimated based on 450 per normal block, but the 'block' portion means if the block is WORTH more or LESS than 450, then use the real block value.
In essence, the blocks are paying exactly what they are worth.
