Multihaslet, maybe brown, i guess!!!!!
you cannot change the pool of a Hashlet Solo, it sticks with the pool you bought it for, in your case Multipool Wafflepool (is the brown one)

What happens if the operator of Wafflepool shuts down the site?  I didn't really understand the price increase just for the ability to switch pools or stay on one pool.

Did GAW make deals with the pool operators?  Like Clevermining and Wafflepool?  It hasn't made sense to mine SCRYPT on Wafflepool in a long time, or am I missing something?

Most people are accepting that they are being pointed at the "Zenpool" and getting payouts; but if they are buying the WaffleHashlet then it's mining on the Wafflepool as SCRYPT?  Which is currently showing 75% profitability vs LTC?

If a pool shuts down what happens to your miner pointed at it?  I'm sorry if this has been answered somewhere, I haven't seen it.

AFAIK all hashlets are mining on the ZENpool, however, if your hashlet is a "Clevermining" hashlet, your payouts are set to match the payouts of Clevermining. So your hashlet is in fact not mining on the Clevermining multipool. As the payouts differ from day to day on all pools, the payouts are set to whatever this level is. Now should a third party pool close, then I assume that GAW will "convert" the hashlet to another 3rd party multihashlet, e.g. make all Clevermining hashlets to Wafflepool hashlets. All they need to do is change the payments for the affected miners to match that of another 3rd party pool.

As the hashlets become more advance perhaps they will be able to be pointed to an arbitrary 3rd party pool, but for now the user gets to choose the pool upon purchase of the selected Solo hashlet.
