Mining Wrong Coin

Post by CritterDog » Wed May 03, 2017 4:18 pm

My miners started mining ETH just for no reason.. I had forfeited ETH a while back and it popped back up and my miners started to mine it instead of what they are set on LTC... I did not change any settings so this has to be on your end.. On back up until this gets resolved.. Thanks

Yeah I think the negative changes today are making those who forfeited their coins re-mine them to bring them to zero balance..

On my account I never had a neg balance and it mined about .70 cents worth of wrong coin before I caught it, But main problem is I can't stop it.. I don't even have a ETH wallet so don't know whats wrong

Moved all of my hashing power to backup pool. Now that all of my forfeited coins have reached a positive balances, those are the only coins i can earn on now. and NOW i have the coins i didn't want to begin with...

to further youre point.. if its not a bug for forfeited balances.. youre going to forfeit them again and again be forced to mine back the fees.

I didn't even have a negative balance after ETH popped back up! Yet still was forced to mine it...I am on back up pool now also. Just glad I caught it right away.
