I have withdrawals confirmed on slugmonkey but they have not went into any of the two wallets I used addresses for. Is this because oof the fork? I emailed the pool admin but he hasn't replied. Any suggestions?
same
unfortunately if the pool has forked, then any coins mined since it forked are gone, nothing you can do to get them back. I think it might have forked earlier in the weekend as someone else said above.
If the admin is not responding, I suggest mining somewhere else.
Slugmonkey is the only pool finding blocks. They are running 73MH/s right now. So where are all those coins going? There is no since in using the other pool because they will not find blocks. They need to close the pool and pay people cause I know someone got the coins.
The coins will only exist on the fork, and as far as I know, they are the only ones on that fork. If you continue on this fork, you will keep those coins, but they wont be the official hempcoins and you wont be able to interact with any other hempcoin wallets outside that fork, ie: exchanges,merchants, your hempcoin friends, etc.... Unfortunately, they are gone and nothing can be done to get them back.
Other pools may not be finding blocks as often, but the blocks they find will actually pay you out and the payout will be bigger. Whether the pool has 10 or 100 Mh, you will get the same amount of coins in the long run anyways.
Mining on that pool is a waste and everyone should move to another one.
You could try this one, only 3Mh on it now, but if everyone moves there from your pool, it will be the same.
http://pool.altcoin.center/In the future, when you start seeing issues as you did, it is a good idea to compare the block your pool is on to the block explorer. If they do not match, the pool has forked and you should stop mining there immediately.
BTW, what is the network hash reported on that pool ? I am guessing it is the same as the pool hash as the pool seems to be finding every block on that fork.
