When pool “pending” should not hit your ledger
Mining treasurers often book pool UI pending amounts too early. Here is how we time recognition against wallet receipts.
Pool dashboards are useful for operations and misleading for close. A “pending” line usually means the pool intends to pay — not that your labeled wallet has received coins you can reconcile.
A practical cutoff
For clients on institutional treasury monitoring, we treat pool pending as operational context only. Ledger recognition waits until the payout address you designated shows a matching receipt, within a tolerance you approve for fees and batching.
Why it matters in Korea close cycles
Controllers preparing KRW-translated packs for directors need a story that survives auditor questions. Booking pending early creates phantom receivables that reverse days later, cluttering Crypto Portfolio Desktop exception lists.
What to bring to a review
Two months of pool statements, the payout addresses currently in use, and any mid-period address changes. With that, a mining portfolio review can show where bookings drifted from receipts — before you commit to ongoing monitoring.
