https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@barton26/6500-grc-superblock-bounty-will-be-paid-out-today

The 6500 GRC bounty for fixing the superblock delays is being paid out today!

As of the time of writing, 6200 GRC of the total 6500 GRC bounty has been approved for release. Currently the payout will be:
80% (4960 GRC) ~200 USD to @iFoggz
20% (1240 GRC) ~50 USD to @Marco Nilsson
Thanks to all our developers for their efforts not only on this issue but many others in the Gridcoin wallet.

Dunno why this is being paid out, the superblock is BROKEN again and has BROKEN twice in the last week or so.

Could the pool be updated with new options? Signature campaign on cryptotalk and this forum would be most beneficial for the community!

Client 3.6.0.2 Windows 10
Lockups and crashes are back after the latest update. It randomly crashes, from a few minutes to a couple hours. No problems before last update.
Thanks.

* security issues in Gridcoin https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/GRC/issues/34

> So the superblock issues has been fixed? or is it just start of the development? If it has been fixed why there's problems with the not included projects or the fix was something else (generation time?)

Sorry for so much questions, but I'm still new in the grc community it's hard to follow recent developments.

Given the intensity of the roadmap, a similar function should be useful
