Mining War: big CPU Timestamp Attacker vs USB ASIC solo MinerA mining war continues between a big CPU timestamp attack who stamp block time always 2 minutes forward, and 2 minutes backward in order to get more profit in NENG mining.
My USB ASIC (futurebit moonlander2) mining is on fire to profit from this, and getting profit away from this big CPU timestamp attacker.

As seen above screen shot, total of 8 minutes, 3 blocks mined, 1 block rejected.
My one USB ASIC's power is limited, probably maxed out on two blocks within two minutes. Hopefully more Moonlander2 solo miners can join in mining NENG and get profit away from this big CPU timestamp attacker.
The current setup is default, no expiry=10 option, uses default 600 frequency. Tested with expiry=10, not good on this situation. The best option is default, settings on two rotating nodes.
