You could only allow wallet address changes when the balance is below a specific threshold (like 0.1 for example, or even zero, since the payouts are only done at the end of rounds).

It was only the wind.
True, Keyloggers would get around this  Grin. I am paranoid when it comes to security and keyloggers are less common on linux but still exist..

If we wanted to be extra paranoid we could all use RSA Secure ID tokens for login :-)

But those can be stolen, so better to use a password, an RSA Secure ID token, and biometric ID.  Roll Eyes

An easy fix would be to set a 2nd password for any withdrawal transactions. If a hacker does compromise an account then its unlikely they will crack the 2nd layer password for the withdrawal. The withdrawal password must not allow the same password as the ltcmine.ru  login password. I think this would stop the majority of hack attempts.

I agree that this will prevent majority of attacks, but second password could be compromised by keyloggers without any problem. Temporary codes for withdrawal address edit operations are much more secure than "static" password for the withdrawal.  Roll Eyes

Sent you a PM Balthazar about my account on the pool. 

BTW awesome pool.  First pool I have mined at in awhile where I actually earn my projected daily LTC.

When are you planning on unlocking the possibility to change the payout address?
It's planned for the next week. But it will be available only for google authentication sessions.

Users will be able to generate codes and use it with mobile application or desktop client like this:

I have had to switch to a different pool because of this connectivity issue.  I am assuming your server is in russia and have you thought of getting one in EU or USA?  
No, this server located in Ukraine.

Latency affects only the steps of the connection and disconnection. Server location shouldn't matter when you are using stratum based pool, because it's a protocol, which based on persistent connections.
But if you are using json-rpc based pool, it would affect you very much.


I was using stratum+tcp in my miner settings and was receiving a lot of disconnected from stratum pool messages.  I tried 3 other pools and did not have this issue.
