In case anyone was thinking about mining at mmpool.org: Do not mine at mmpool.org
admin@mmpool has not replied to any of the several emails sent to him since 28 December 2022.
By the way, I might have accepted the missing block scenario he describes in his news post.
It might have been a way to move forward if this wasn't already full of lies and fraud.
It might have resulted in a large payout to me.
It is a shame that I wasn't asked if that was ok despite being owed so much and despite my several attempts by email to continue the conversation.
If he had posted that here on BTF back at 16 December 2022, then we might still be mining right into his next fraud.
Instead, I have found his location and let him know that location via email.
Then he posted the latest news entry with more facts for you all.
I'll hire an investigator and a lawyer in his english-speaking home country (far from Sweden!) to follow up on my behalf.
He doesn't want to engage directly, so I now have to invest more to continue the conversation in person.
In the best-case scenario, the admin is negligent and he has allowed a thief to steal the reward of the last round while also neglecting his community of miners.
In the worst-case scenario, the admin is the thief.
I won't mine at mmpool.org and you shouldn't either.
I wish you the best for your researches. I hope you will find him
I am personnaly still thinking that mmpool is the thief. So easy no ? Steal 100K USD and post 2 emails without any proof on your own website, it doesn't look to be so complicated. Good reward for the efforts done, no ?
An honest pool operator would not ignore his users emails, especially emails from the user who solved 90% of the last blocks.
I agree with ctya, no one should point any hashrate to Mmpool, why should we trust him again ? We have NO PROOF that he is not telling us absolute bullshit on his news webpage. He is not able to give us security, and probably did a crazy exist scam. Why should we give him the opportunity to fuck us twice ?
I really hate this lack of transparency from mmpool. He could do an exception to his "Bitcointalk boycott" and come here to explain us how he managed to have such vulnerabilities on his server when his hosts a BTC mining pool.
Crazy
