Exactly! And not a cover band either...

Re: multipools and autoswitching in single algo coins, I came across this interesting thread that EVERY dev, current or future, should read (ahem, Truckman):
https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/1vrish/multipools_are_bad_for_the_health_of_cryptos/

I'm going to look into the issue further when I'm free later (even though it's not my job). I'd like to hear about the status of hexpool and what happened and whether it will be back up?

For the time being, let's try to get more miners interested in mining DAS to point their rigs to topcoins and sopool to get some growing and stable hashrates to counter the effects of granatgas-pool entries/exits in DAS. That's the only immediate solution I can think of.

Truckman: I've sent several PMs. This issue REQUIRES your immediate attention.
