Here's a quick status update:
  • We fixed the problem with found blocks being displayed on the earnings page, so everyone can now see the blocks they've mined.
  • We discovered a catastrophic bug in the block explorer that relates to something called "non-standard transactions," which are transactions that don't output to an address. Previously, these transactions were ignored by the explorer, but it turns out that tracking them is important because they can actually be spent. We had to discard 2 billion rows of indexed blocks and start from scratch. Unfortunately, it is possible it could be August before the block explorer is back to full operation - but some coins will start appearing immediately.
  • Profitability hit an all-time high yesterday at 11.11 cents. Unfortunately, while everyone else is making money, we are being stymied by bad luck. Hopefully, there will be a payday for Chris soon.
  • Chris spent a lot of his time yesterday fixing coins that were in error. He was able to repair at least 10 coins, which will increase profitability because we have more coins to mine. He even fixed the Blackcoin daemon, which was incompatible with Debian 8 previously.

I take the last point back. Congratulations to Megavolt, who just found a Litecoin block worth $206.77.
