New blog post: Multipool trouble
http://blog.spaincoin.org/2014/03/21/multipool-trouble/
tl;dr: Multipools are hitting us, causing trouble for miners and lowering the coins value. The Spaincoin network itself is completely healthy thanks to KGW. Well fix this issue completely with a hardfork soon, so multipools will stop hitting us.
that would explain why the diff has been jumping from 100 to 700 lately...
SpainCoinDev: is there any way to make newly mined blocks mature after some large amount of time, like 2-4 weeks, while still having fast transaction confirmations? That way you can't just mine them and dump them, you have to hold for at least awhile this is why companies have their stock options paid to employees vest over a certain long period, usually years. That way they can't just dump their options immediately.
if this is technically possible it would destroy the multipool problem, or at least cut its effect by quite a bit. it would only attract miners that are in for the long term.
