Thanks for the reply, ill be letting all my beans auto split for the most part now, I had been recombining them into 100k chunks to try to optimize sprouts. Ill probably go a lot lower now.
As far as that pool goes, I did deposit 100k into it, and after the initial 6 hours, ive been getting stakes there, and have gotten over 100 bitbeans in stakes since then. I am currently getting 3.928 beans per stake. It says there is a total of 34 users as well if that helps anyone.
Distributed Network Promotion Contest
As far as pools go, I am not a fan of them, as they centralize the network. Running your own node (BitBean-qt or BitBeand daemon/server) helps to support the network and that is the purpose of the reward structure (1,000 BitBeans). The SPROUTs are meant to reward those who are providing resources to the network. If everyone put their BitBeans into a handful of large pools, BitBean would become centralized like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Future releases of BitBean will build upon the foundation of a distributed and decentralized network, along with tighter metrics to reinforce the strength of the network.
To encourage users to run their own BitBean node, I will be paying out a 100,000 BitBean reward, for up to 20 unique new BitBean nodes (1 reward per user and node) that are consistently active and sprouting new Beans on the network. This contest will run from now until the release of BitBean (v1.2.0.0RC, target date is in August). To participate in the contest, you must email me your BitBean node IP and associated BitBean address(s) [no latter than June 20th., 2016], which is currently not existing on the network, but is a new node (BitBean-qt or BitBeand instance). After your details are received, Bean Core will monitor your node periodically until the release of v1.2.0.0RC, and if it is found to be consistently active on the network and SPROUTing, the associated address will be sent 100,000 Bitbeans when v1.2 is released. After your details are received and it is verified that you are running a new node, if you also attach a screen-shot of your active BitBean-qt node, you will receive 10,000 BitBeans immediately To receive the additional 100,000 BitBeans, you must keep your node active until the end of August 2016, or v1.2 is released (which ever occurs sooner). Only the first 20 verified participants will be eligible.
The BitBean Network currently has 92 active nodes.
These are the currently active and existing nodes on the network:
