Slush Pool was announced on November, 27, 2010 under the name Bitcoin Pooled Mining Server<ref name="thread"/> and operated on a share strategy that involved an artificially low [[difficulty]] method that has since been determined to be vulnerable to cheating. The pool now follows a score-based method, where older shares (from beginning of the round) have a lower value than newer shares, which serves to demotivate a cheater from switching between pools inside a round. Balances accumulate on the server, and are sent out when a user-set threshold balance is reached. There is a fixed fee of 2%, as of December 10, 2017<ref>[https://slushpool.com/terms-of-service Slush Pool: Terms of service]</ref>. | ||
