What if you just let it sit there on the chain, and, say, collect it all in 3 months? Can that be done? Too bad they chose Ethereum ... I'd be all over it like a pig in sh mud otherwise. Still could get interested though. Could you mine it and just leave it there for an indefinite period of time?
Edit: there's no other way to know if your miner is operating correctly?
