Just so everybody is aware, blocks are being found at the pools - the crons just aren't keeping up. To lower network load, some of the pools have disabled block updates temporarily. There was over 1 Gh/s on the OctoCoin network within minutes and we were experiencing DDoS attacks on one of our main seeds/nodes.

There have been nearly 1000 blocks found at FusionHash and it's a prop pool so everybody in there will receive their shares. These big launches often stumble out of the gates but the biggest losers here are likely the people that tried to solo-mine - the pools are finding all of the blocks right now.

Will continue to post updates throughout the day - it appears everything is stabilizing. We have 7 more days of the 888 OctoCoin blocks.
