Good morning!
  • Last night, Chris successfully deployed ERC20 tokens! The first token available for earnings and payouts is GOLEM. After a full day elapses and we've confirmed that the tokens are able to go through all aspects of the system, then Chris will add a lot more tokens.
  • Chris continues to add Tradesatoshi coins to improve profits. The list of coins will be listed in the twitter feed later today. He still has additional coins to go. Yesterday, we were able to achieve LTC + 10% thanks to Chris's hard work.
  • We successfully deployed the share inserter performance improvements, which will allow capacity to expand for a long time. Thanks for your patience with that. Unfortunately, there continue to remain other mining server issues: the hashrate displayed on the forums, for example, goes way up and down because we think there is some circumstance where a miner can cause hashrate to be added to the total but it is not subtracted. The mining server also seems to send duplicate shares to the share inserter occasionally, and the network connectivity issues with WAMP remain. All work on new algorithms has stopped until existing issues like these have been resolved.

Is this a display issue or a computation issue?

If hashrates are being added and not subtracted, doesnt that give us lower profits than we should have gotten?

We can't determine the full extent of the issue until we've determined the cause. However, it's been present since day one, so if there is any significant impact, it would likely have been detected long before now. I suspect that it's just a display issue.
