The ultimate aim is to automate the server parameters so that they change in response to market pressures during the course of the pool operation. That’s a little way of though and needs some work on what actions the software should take in response to certain market conditions. The upshot of that is that the tolerances will come down and the peg will get tighter.
This operation though is the first outing of a completely new software. It has had testing periods but the only safe way to see that it does the job it is intended to do is to run it in a comparable manner to the software it replaces. That is why the pool parameters have been kept the same, not from wanting to make Nu pay higher than necessary for the service the pool provides, but to allow us to see that pool mk2 is the same as pool mk1. Once that is confirmed, we can start tinkering with parameters.
