Dear miners,

As you might know, we have been merged mining Namecoin (NMC) for several years. However, due to exchanges delisting it and a general lack of liquidity, it has become infeasible for us to exchange NMC for BTC in order to add it to your payouts.

Therefore, we have decided to send the accumulated NMC reward directly to any users who provide an NMC wallet address to claim their reward during the next two months. We apologize for the inconvenience this causes, but we feel it’s better than not distributing the NMC proceeds at all.

Moving forward, we will stop distributing NMC rewards due to the aforementioned reasons. We will reconsider this decision in the event that NMC becomes substantially more valuable in the future, but for the time being, we will begin using NMC merged mining revenue to support our open-source projects such as Braiins OS and Stratum V2 that bring benefits to the whole mining community.

Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
