Does the shared firmware increase the HS only in the Antminer pool or in all pools? You guys did the update? Or left the default firmware.. I read that someone had problems.. Today Antpool has paid one of 5 payments in pending, slowly slowly maybe they arrive..
It should increase the hash rate on all pools. A lot of people did the update. It increases the hash rate by ~30% which translates to a 30% increase in daily profit. The guy who had a problem turned off his miner while it was updating. I also received one of 4 pending payments from Antpool.
