Mining now works in a different way.
At the top of every hour, a button appears on the miner. If you click the button, you earn 1.25 HWL.
The button only appears for 10 seconds, at the top of every hour (So at Midday exactly, at 1pm, at 2pm etc). Those are your 10 second windows to collect HowlCoins. This means you no longer need to leave the miner running on your PC. All you have to do is offer your 'time' by being there at the top of the hour to collect your coin. This means a millionaire and a broke person have no advantage over each other- if they are there running the miner at the top of the hour they will get their coin when the button appears and they click it.
This is also a much more secure way to distribute coins. Depending on what happens, we may eventually introduce a Captcha style puzzle to solve instead of it just being a button.

I really liked the idea to mine with "time" - leave it running in the background and collect from time to time (would be even better if it would become automatized). Now this system that you have to click something is very similar to faucets (even Captcha in the future), which I find very frustrating. If the main reason for this change is to equalize mining for rich and poor , then why not just do 1 device per IP (it would be too much hassle for "rich" to set up multiples mining places just to mine with a few more devices).
Sorry, but I am greatly against this change.
I also do not like this change. You can restrict per IP address.
