Bluebox update to Firmware2.0 should be going on right now.

This update will bring Allanons latest dashboard to blueboxes which will take payout addresses that user have given to the dashboard. This applies to Telos and XBTX as well as any future coins that will be added to Blueboxes.

This means that while payments have so far been processed manually, from this point on, payments will happen automatically to these before mentioned addresses.

However, notice that if you haven’t given for example Bitcoin Subsidium (XBTX) payment address yet, you need to give one by logging in to your user account at https://portal.blueboxing.net and updating it in “profile” section where the wallet is asked at. Oh, and make sure there are no empty spaces, neither in front, after, or even at the middle of the address, otherwise current system won’t recognize it as a wallet address.

In addition, user can choose a payment threshold, as for example 10 XBTX, which means that when bluebox have made 10 XBTX, then this amount will automatically be paid to the given address – minus the 20 percent fee to the company. By other words, it will be a somewhat familiar system to those who in their past used those ancient technology bitcoin mining pools.

As already mentioned, updating is already in process, and this takes no extra effort from users, but the update will be handled by the company.

First will be updated blueboxes of users who are planning to pay their standing orders using XBTX. After these customers Bluebox update have been handled, next blueboxes will be updated according to their serial number order, which in practice means that earlier you bought your bluebox, sooner your bluebox will be updated.

Dev however promised that if someone is in urgent need of their XBTX to buy a new kidney, he can in that case move that ones bluebox update up in the list.

New blueboxes that have not been delivered yet, will automatically have firmware2.0 on them from now on.

In this same announcement Dev also mentioned that while Running Telos master nodes on bluebox at home you need at least 10 Mbps Upload speed, mining Bitcoin Subsidium (XBTX) will however take much less. For XBTX mining you will only need 10 Kbs download and 60 Kbps upload speed. So if you having trouble with internet connection speed, then the option to fully mine XBTX only is the way to go currently.
