Status as of Saturday, January 24

[Steve Sokolowski]

Chris certified multiple exchange trading today, so we will be issuing a release throughout the day today, in stages.

• First, we'll change the database schema to support the new code.
• Second, we'll change the existing trading code out for the new code, without enabling any new coins or exchanges, and look for and fix errors.
• Third, we'll enable Poloniex for trading on existing coins that Poloniex supports.
• Last, we'll enable 10 new coins for mining that are only supported at Poloniex.

Profitability will improve later today for two reasons. First, sometimes the sell prices are higher or the buy prices are lower at Poloniex, so the exchange rate is more favorable to miners. Second, we will have a wider range of coins from which to choose.

There should be no impact on mining, and it will not be necessary to stop the mining server. All of the changes necessary on the mining server side were released during that huge downtime in early November.

This release has been completed, and we are already seeing results. Profitability rose to 6.7 cents after the release due to Poloniex coins.

Feel free to report any issues if they arise.
