I know everyone is upset with lower profits than we all are accustomed too. I don't like it too. These are just market conditions and we really can't do anything about it. All other pools have similar or even worse results.

I will work to optimise the pool choices even more and maybe split our hashrate between couple of smaller coins. It will be easier when miners will be spread over more servers so I think I'll launch more regional servers now. But these are small optimisations and the reality is that most of altcoins aren't that profitable now. This market has its ups and downs and if you take a look at 30-day chart http://www.clevermining.com/profits/30-days you can expect that better profits will come back soon, as usual.

Of course we mine directly LTC at the moments when it's the most profitable. But there's a variance and there are hours with more blocks found and hours with less blocks found.

The high unexchanged balance is a backlog of manual trades from couple of days ago. I will process them manually within 24 hours and it should be cleared out to pay tomorrow.
