Why I am paying for the Extra rewards to miners?

Some buyer pools are generating lots of work restarts. This is usually a symptom of coins with very low difficulty or multi-pools switching coins very fast and don't have an efficient implementation of coin switching. Sometimes, this is also the result of custom private pools. Excessive work restarts reduce the efficiency of miners, especially on fast ASIC miners with weak controllers. We have addressed this issue by rewarding providers (sellers) with extra shares paid by buyers when quick work restarts occur.

You will also pay for the extra rewards if the pool drops connection (disconnections) and an order cancelation. The compensation amount will reflect the number of rigs - the more rigs an order has, the higher the amount.* Both extra rewards are worth 10 seconds of mining for ASICs and 1 second for GPU/CPU miners.

* For buyers that want to avoid paying the compensation, ensure that clear jobs are submitted at a slower rate and that connections to the pool are stable and permanent. In the case of a canceled order, orders must either be canceled when no rigs are on order or halted gradually by taking the following steps:

First, lower the speed limit on the order to the minimum.

Wait until the majority of rigs are moved to other orders.

Then cancel the order.

Example of high percentage extra rewards:

In this case, we suggest you contact the pool operator or switch to a fully compatible pool.
