Market goes through the roof... Profits decrease?

Noticed a huge spike in earnings last night as the coins started to take off... Woke up this morning to find the "error" had apparently been corrected... only now at the end of the day I see I earned about 10% less today than I did yesterday... Seems fishy.....

yeah im def not meeting my target today despite prices going up. Wondering if prohashing has some updates that cant keep up with the price increase so suddenly.

Hopefully if thats as such we get reimbursed later.

Chris discovered a bug in the share inserters that caused some shares not to be inserted. He was not able to determine the cause of the problem, but issued manual corrections and will continue to monitor the system today to see if the issue recurs.

If it helps at all... The night that I saw the spike.. my profits had increased by about 1500% instantaneously.. I assumed it was an error and was not surprised to see the next morning it had been corrected. I know Chris made some changes the last time this happened... maybe it was those changes that were the "cause" of the share issue? Just a shot in the dark in case it might help :-)

The problem was a Dash "superblock." These superblocks occur on the second of each month and require some of the block reward to be paid to other addresses.

We weren't aware of that, so these blocks were erroneously interpreted as owing all that reward to us. We were finally able to figure out what the problem was after I posted a message to the Dash developers, and we checked in changes to the mining server to resolve the issue permanently. It will be released sometime later in April, before May 2.
