Geek. Bitcoiner. Economist.

Maybe. But have you seen Pride and Prejudice and Zombies? Me, personally, I prefer the empire dresses… https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1374989/

No. But I donated some to a podcaster who then proceeded to lose them.

As Douglas Adams taught us, a towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. And my preferred type of towel is a tea towel. Even the name is great.

No, seriously, though. Why are the stats so slow to update? Or is it just mine?

Yes. They are doing it, but prefer to call it "spam filtering".

As long as the pool is relatively small, they really won't leave much revenue on the table: there will be plenty of high-paying non-"spam" transactions to include at rates very close to the highest-bidding "spam". It will get more interesting if they grow to a significant size before they fully support Stratum V2, tho…

Agreed. Communication from nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze could be better. It's also looking like they might have found their first block (ignoring the irrelevant history of a long-dead pool shown in the dashboard), but if 819242 is really theirs, nothing is updated on the dashboard…

I was literally just teaching my students the difference between deflation and disinformation yesterday. Thanks for the perfect example for tomorrow's class.

For this looking for more info on nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze's new pool, BTC Mechanic answers some questions halfway through this Twitter space:

There are limits to what they'll allow, though, even if they do that. They may be constrained by OFAC considerations, for example. But, in general, think about the nightmare of how to properly account for some miners choosing to construct blocks with much lower fees. Should they receive the same share of earnings as a pool member who always maximizes fees? Obviously neither fair nor sustainable. But making payouts fair in that case will be both conceptually and practically harder.
