We've just deployed two fixes for the Lyra2re2 based pools Monacoin and Vertcoin. The hashrate should be in line with the actual values and the payouts should be distributed more evenly according to hashrate. I will monitor this constantly.

There appears to be a Dash block stuck at 0% for a couple of hours now. Any idea what is up with that?

The Dash pool minimum payout has been lowered to 0.03 DASH effective immediately. This will have no impact on fees. In the near future you will be able to set a personal payout limit.

I'm planning to integrate the mining operation under the existing coinfoundry.org organization. The domain poolmining.org has originally been chosen for SEO purposes. But as some people have repeatedly voiced here and on twitter, the name is simply too generic. The rebranding will occur completely seamless. Miner configurations will not need not to be updated at all and both the main website and this support site will redirect to their new locations. I will announce the exact date of the change a couple days before its scheduled to happen.  

How do i know i am ever going to be paid out?

Dear Miners

I'm generally quite happy with the progress the pools have made over the past months and how a tight knit community has emerged around here. I like browsing the forum spotting familiar faces helping out with answering beginner questions. It just feels good and I'm incredibly grateful for that. Yet, I think we can do better. As of now, only the DASH pool keeps the lights on because it's the only one finding blocks at a frequency that does not cause miners setting off for supposedly greener pastures. 

In short, the other pools need to perform better which requires more miners. I'm already actively promoting all pools via SEO, Social Media and some forums, but I can only post so much before promotion turns into outright spamming - which is not my thing. Like most people, I despise spammers. This is where you could help us a bit. If you like what we are doing here and you stumble about a relevant question posted somewhere, why not provide a pointer to our forum and/or pools? Stumbling over a pool directory? Let me know or register the pool yourself. Same goes for Social Media Likes/Mentions and Polls. Every bit helps.

Thanks for your time,

Oliver

Looks like the pool managed to travel back in time and mine the last block again, unlocking a bonus reward for the stubborn persistence of our Monero miners. Creative little bastard.

I can't believed my eyes! 

4 blocks in 4 days!  :)

The Electroneum Team just announced that it will discontinue operating its own pool, so this could be a chance to gain the critical mass of miners. You may also promote our pool in the facebook post mentioned above.

No block in 13 hours. Don't really believe in that. Please check.
