Judging from the leaderboard, there are only a handful of miners that are even due a payment.
Ive been holding out till ASICs are released. I still have about 3 months worth of points I can use. me too.

I just sent an email to Chris asking for an update. Hopefully we'll hear back soon. Has anyone else tried to contact Coinlab staff?

Just sent a message as well. They usually respond on a Monday.

I would be very disappointed. Part of the gamble for both miner and Coinlab was how the price would change given they were paying out in USD. I certainly hope they hold to the value based on when the payout was due.

I've emailed Peter Vessenes via his Bitcoin Foundation address, and also Charlie Shrem (BF's vice chairman handling their corporate member class.) I saw on one of Coinlab's previous forum posts that they share office space with BF; maybe Shrem or someone can take a peek and make sure their furniture's all still there. This is not to say I think Coinlab's scammed us; they've generally been communicative, up-front, and accomodating, and have been known to fall behind on payouts and public relations. However, Bitcoin businesses seem flighty practically by nature, and after two weeks I think we should start asking for news from anyone who might know. Beyond this incident, I'm concerned that we haven't had an update on the HPC business in some time. Coinlab previously expressed difficulty in finding customers for their admittedly non-standard infrastructure; and the custom client is well behind. They received $500,000 in VC in April, and it's not unthinkable that they've run out by now. If I don't get a response from Vessenes or Shrem, there are other people I plan to contact: VC firm Draper Associates, investor Geoff Entress, and CFO Jack Jolley were mentioned in that article. I'd encourage you guys to contact some or all of these people if we don't get a response soon.

Seems I just got a payout, although a bit less than half of what I've earned the past two weeks. No human contact though, so I'm still not sure what's going on. Has anyone else here seen at least some of their payout? My transaction (I received the smaller amount ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) )

I have also got an payout tonight. It's not the full payout as expected, but better than nothing.

Charlie Shrem promised to put me in contact with Peter Vessenes, but Charlie says he hasn't heard from Peter so far. I just sent an email to Joel Yarmon, a contact for the VC fund Draper Associates, and sent another to Roger Ver. I'm wondering how else we can effectively escalate this, particularly to get the attention of other notables in the Bitcoin community. If you'd like to send some emails yourself, here are the names/addresses I've contacted already: Peter Vessenes, Coinlab CEO and Bitcoin Foundation executive director: peter@bitcoinfoundation.orgCharlie Shrem, Bitcoin Foundation vice president of the corporate member class: charlie@bitcoinfoundation.orgJoel Yarmon, Draper Associates: 6502339000@drapervc.comRoger Ver, Bitcoin angel investor: rver@memorydealers.comEdit: I also contacted Chris at Coinlab, chris@coinlab.com

This is the current 'top' leader board. I have not had a payment since Jan7. I have less then 100 dollars coming and I am almost always near the top... I would say just relax and let them do what they need to do. Coinlab is not going anywhere!

This is the current 'top' leader board.
Is that the leaderboard for the redeem pool? I'm still mining on protected since prices have been fairly strong and ASICs haven't hit yet. There's about 70GH/s of power on protected, and that's a decent chunk of coin. What bothers me most is the lack of communication for weeks. That's really unlike Coinlab.

Why would anyone use their loyalty points on the redeem pool now? $2.5 per GH/s per day is less than 100% PPS.
