BitMinter is changing the minimum auto cash out threshold from 0.001 to 0.01.
[+explanation on why edited out]

I always thought BitMinter already had a 0.01 threshold for payouts, every other pool I know of are already at 0.01. And I totally support your analysis on protecting the newbies from shooting themselves in the foot and avoid them piling up tons of very small coins without knowing what they're doing.

Being new I assumed it was safer to take coins at 0.001 to my wallet, to protect against the pool being hacked or going away ...
Why does it matter what my wallet was built with?
If the wallet now holds BTC50 and I pay out BTC10 surely it matters not that the BTC50 was saved up pennies ?
