Re: Another day of profitability: September 17

Yes, that is a consequence that is unavoidable with a higher hashrate. That said, 60% of our revenue comes from Gamecredits, AsiaDigicoins, and Novacoins, and even with the current hashrate we still represent a very small fraction of those networks.

A few minor updates for today: There are two minor changes to the website that will go out in the next week.

Good evening! A few updates about what we accomplished over the weekend: Much of our time continues to be focused on eliminating bugs from the latest performance improvements to the mining server. Performance improvement releases seem to be the most risky releases, and there have been several instan...
