They have large exposure to ETH mining, 11% of the hashrate afaik. And that is going poof overnight in a few days I imagine that doesn't help. As a side note mining pools seem to come and go in bitcoin although the market seems more established lately. But who remembers btc guild and gigahash.io

Why would somebody even join a mining pool without setting up auto-withdrawals? Lack of education? You would expect that somebody that put enough money to buy a bunch of ASICs also put some time to understand what they are mining. This is very strange.

Possibly they want to do manually withdraws to pick a time when the mempool was not busy. To save sats on fees.
