No idea why people are still mining the crud out of the old one as the main nodes will have the plug pulled on Nov 11.
Eh, not apposed to them mining it though.
Simple really.ESP1 still has a pool, ESP2 doesn't yet.
So mining esp1 and swapping is the easy thing to do.
I think it will affect supply because all the esp1 pow is converted to esp2 while on the esp2 chain, there are fewer pow blocks thus more pos blocks than there should be
Perhaps a pool for esp2 should be a priority right now. Maxminers should have no problem switching if asked
Not to argue however we've noticed on the explorer that most of the blocks are seeming to be PoW blocks.
It shouldn't affect the chain though as the new one was created wtih ESP1 being mined in mind.
Edit: Emailed maxminer, thanks
