Something is very odd here. I mined few hours HAC on the (official?) pool "hacashpool".

On the pool, one moment I had over 92 million :240 HAC unconfirmed, but when I came back half an hour later, it had shrunk to 2 million :240 HAC unconfirmed (Nope, it didn't just become comfirmed and consequently vanished from the unconfirmed column).
Where did that amount go?
Also, my Ryzen 2700X has a significantly lower hashrate than my i5-8159U, which is very unlikely, too.

EDIT: The unconfirmed balance seemingly went to "DeservedBalance", which isn't even shown on http://miner.hacashpool.com/. Decreasing balance and not telling where it went probably isn't the best way to attract new miners Wink

Does anyone know in which frequency the pool cashes out to miners?


On another topic, the solo miner seems broken.

example output:

when it's supposed to sync the chain. It doesn't download anything.

Question1:
It's not official pool.

Question2:
It depends on how much HAC / how many blocks that miner has mined.

First there's the standard blockchain confirmation, just like Bitcoin. That takes 5 min max.

Then, there's the pool settlement software that handles how and when to pay out miners.

The WP says this: At present, the rules for mining pool settlement and automatic coinage are: every block excavated counts a statistical period, and settles once, and the mined coins are distributed in proportion to all participating computing power in the period. If there are more than 2 reward shares, 10 blocks will be credited into the account in 50 minutes, 0.2 blocks will be credited in 8.3 hours, and 0.02 blocks will be credited in 3.5 days.

The more blocks that you mine the faster your coins will get confirmed and paid out.

Question3:
delete “hacash_mainnet_data”
