has anyone gotten paid from hashkings? i dont understand how PPLNS works, i take it i have to wait until a certain amount of blocks/shares have been accepted?
pplns is pay per last known share.. its an algo designed to screw hoppers. It basically calcs only the shares close to when the block was found and since hoppers like to come in at the beginning of the block.. it screws them.
its also kinda meaningless to your question and is just how reward is calculated. If you were there the entire time hashing, you should get close to the same reward as any algo.. sans the hoppers.
when mining.. unlike exchanges, every block needs 120 confirmations before it is accepted on the block chain.
A confirmation is a subsequent block. SO you need 120 blocks to be found after that one, to get your coin confirmed.
