Which brings up an interesting point - why is this happening?Quote from: Stan on November 19, 2013, 02:11:35 PMQuote from: MisO69 on November 19, 2013, 02:04:25 PM
Being a complete noob; What does that mean and what are the consequences of such actions?
The job of miners is to do the work of the network, for which they get paid in mined shares. Instead of processing all our transactions, doing just one transaction per block is doing as little work as possible and still getting paid. So everything is slow because most of the "workers" are just standing around leaning on their shovels. :)
Not really. They're doing the same amount of work whether or not they include transactions. It's actually beneficial for them to add transactions, as they get paid in fees.
Either the majority of ypool's miners are slow to upgrade, ypool is slow to enforce the upgrade, or ypool miners don't care about the network... or something else?
I don't think miners get to decide whether or not to include transactions. The pool gives them a block header to hash, and they hash it.
