Few things to bring up.. Official pool was the subject of a few losers yesterday. Original stratum server we had was patched aganst an old expoit that was found a few months ago that allowed users to use cpu to send massive amount of lowdiff shares the pool would see as regular valid shares. Equating to the illusion of a higher hash rate.
Clearly a few losers found their way around this patch.
The stratum was brought offline for a while last night where this hole was fixed. The users accounts that were suspect were locked.
Any user with a locked account can get their account unlocked and the funds tied up in the account sent to them by simply proving they had the hash to begin with... If they fail to come forward than the
funds in those accounts will be released to the valid miners of the pool.
All n all we caught this fairly quickly so minimal damage was done. Everybody currently hashing should see increase in payouts to properly reflect your hash rates!
http://pool.365coin.net/ the frontend now displays correct hashrates for each user (or very close to)
Expect the pools frontend to change a bit in the future, Also we need more hash the fees generated by the official pool will go toords further development, to include (hopefully) a new and kick ass block explorer, some work with other teams and the advent of pushing to get added as a payment method for some merchants!
Mintpal trading is on fire 166 btc volume in the past 24 hours!
However I do feel sorry for the people who are continuing to dump at these clearly low numbers.
I guess the majority of you just HATE making profits!
When you see people putting buys in for 25+ btc you do not put sells in for under 5. But thats ok I am enjoying buying the cheap 365!
I do expect to see about 100 posts on here in a week of people crying that they sold at under 5 when you see 365 in double digits.
Don't forget bring your gridseeds over to
https://hashco.ws/ and get paid out in 365 to mine scrypt coins!
Try spreading the hash out from dwarfs as well this concentration not good for anybody.
Pools such as dwarf and 1gh while I love the ability to just jump on and mine without registration they MUST do something to limit the amount of hash they accept. If they refuse to do something about this I will look into ways to prevent any pool from gaining to much hash for 365. Till that happens if your mining @ dwarfs please consider moving elsewhere... Split your hash rate if you wish cgminer can split your hash rate between a number of pools.
I will post detailed instructions on how to do that. Splitting your hash rate also allows you to get a piece of EVERY block mined by any of the pools u put hash on not just the blocks the single pool you mine on finds.
