huge drop from $34 to $10.5 in less than two days. and back to $15 within minutes. more or less steady at $11+ now. what a wild market!

Rowan, the client doesn't contribute to the safety of the network, that's what miners do.
when you get your payout sent from pool, it goes to all unsent transactions which are picked up by miners for solving next block. in this case you may see funds appear in your wallet as unconfirmed, and once more blocks being solved transaction will be confirmed by more and more nodes. very low transactions 0.01 and below have default fee attached to them, in a new client (0.3.22-beta) it is set to 0.0005 btc i think and on older version it's 0.01 btc
