What about the entry at Sept 14th 2010: "Block 79,764 is first to be mined using split allocation of the generation reward." ? – Kinnard Hockenhull May 21 '13 at 17:14
@KinnardHockenhull I don't really understand what it said in the Sept 14th entry. I understand it says something about the reward being generated from many places. I don't see the connection with pool mining – rdymac May 23 '13 at 21:45
