Do all miners immediately drop work on mining the current block & begin work on adding a new block? If one miner has a machine that guarantees he is theRead more

Here is a simple reward system. The reward has a few types and the data will be the amount of currency given or the badge code given. When a player is given a reward, it will be added to the dictionary and processed when the check method has been called. The reward logs keep holdRead more
