Hi,

I cannot trace having recieved my last payout from the pool on the 15th , probably an issue my end is there a way to track it please?
The last transaction has been sent out, but not confirmed.
Bitcoin transactions have 2 steps:
1) Create a transaction and relay it onto the Bitcoin network
2) A miner confirm the transaction into a block

Step 2) can be slow or fast depending on the general network mempool size (transaction backlog) and the fee included in the transaction

In our case I only put a (very) low fee (42,000 sat) so it will be confirmed if the network isn't busy.
However, since we're a pool I can also ensure it's in the next block we find after I send it out.
So in the case of 494458 it will prolly not confirm until we find another block even though 494405 did.

The side effect is that no one has to pay fees for the payout transactions.
