I have recently observed that there has been an accumulation of addresses like 45bd----------------------- in the pool, whom doesn´t match the look of casual ROI adresses often with much hashpower.
These ones may contribute for the network, but the coins will never be received. Maybe a Pool Administrator should check who´s connecting with previously mentioned adresses and should disconnect this one.

I think there is simply unnecessary energy consumed.

I think the pool admin has no interest on disconnecting wrong addresses because he will receive all coins for himself which cannot be send to the real owner. Or am I wrong?

I think coins sent to the wrong adress are burned and could not be retrieved back ..?

You can do a quick experiment... just open your ROI Coin wallet and click send and now type in a wrong address... you will see the box turn red and that address won't be accepted. If there is a way to send coins to a wrong ROI address I am not aware of how to do it. The system "checks" that sending address and can refuse it if that makes sense. In the case of a pool I suppose if you mine pools with an invalid address those coins would in fact get mined but I don't believe the pool could then be able to deliver them. In other words this would likely be free coins for that pool

Maybe a pool operator will chime in here with a more clear explanation...

I also checked the mining address in block explorer and it cannot be found. So pool admin is not able to send coins to this address and will laugh about the stupid people when he gets many thousands extra coins. Shocked

You can't find it because its an etherium address
