REGARDING DOGE.NETCODEPOOL.ORG:Our pool and its operations are completely encapsulated in their own back-end area and are completely abstracted from the front-end.
In other words, the frontend may be down (stats, etc) but the backend pool is up.
Your shares, payout information, and work done are all safe and sound.
We are up as of 12:38pm.
