The 0.5% bonus for the block finder is a nice incentive. Do you think that’s enough to attract smaller solo miners to try it instead of sticking with big pools?

A subsidy of 0.5% is sent to the node that solved the block in order to discourage not sharing solutions that qualify as a block. (A miner with the aim to harm others could withhold the block, thereby preventing anybody from getting paid. He can NOT redirect the payout to himself.) The remaining 99.5% is distributed evenly to miners based on work done recently.

I thought that was a bot!

Why are all it's comments downzapped

Is it because everyone knows its a bot and keeps asking AI slop questions

Tbf you were having a to and fro with it

And it sent cc's so it's pretty quick at learning

Not a bot. Just someone asking questions and learning like everyone else.

Ahh that makes sense — so it’s more of an anti-withholding mechanism than a recruitment incentive. Appreciate the clarification.
