Title: Preconfigured mining pool just plug and go according to the seller Post by: EtihadBitcoin on November 09, 2017, 01:40:49 PM This is from the ad I have seen. Can this not be just created by yourself instead of paying this individual who is selling it on a hard drive preconfigured?
Start of ad: Bitcoin Namecoin Litecoin Dogecoin Merged Mining Pool used mining pool. Brand new custom programmed pool. Mine multiple coins at one time as a result earning more money.

Pool Features Bitcoin Mining Pool Litecoin Mining Pool Merged Namecoin Merged Dogecoin Fully re-written GUI with Smarty templates Full file based template support VAR-DIFF Integration Reward Systems PPLNS PROP PPS New Themes BRAND NEW Live Dashboard Interface AJAX Support Overhauled API Scale Web Bootstrap Web User accounts Re-Captcha protected registration form Worker accounts Worker activity Worker hash-rates Pool statistics Block statistics Pool donations, bonuses, fees and block bonuses Manual and auto payout Transaction list Admin Panel Cron Monitoring Overview User Listing including statistics Wallet information User Transactions News Posts Pool Settings Pool Workers User Reports Notification systems IDLE Workers New blocks found in pool Auto Payout Manual Payouts Mining pools are a way for miners to share pool resources. Therefore all together they add hashing power and as a result they solve blocks faster. Shares also are awarded to members of the Bitcoin mining pool who present whats called “proof of work”. As a result the solution to this problem was for miners to pool their resources together. Now hence they could generate blocks quicker and in conclusion receive a portion of the Bitcoin block reward faster. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So my question is, why would they be selling this for over $6000 alone minus the hard drive being used to host the pool is a ssd which would be around $450 for one? And how much space would be needed available on a drive to start a mining pool for these various coins? The one he stated in his ad is a 1TB ssd. Any help with this would be appreciated since I am brand new to how mining pools work. This ad just struck me as odd as anyone can just download the required databases/pools and set this up on their own. And just spend $450-500 on the drive and save themselves of paying the asking price from this seller is wanting for the work he has done for you to start one for your own. Thank you.

b. deals mostly with altcoins - post in those sections, not here as this is Bitcoin-only area c. sounds incredibly scammy to me. Running a pool entails being directly responsible for a fair amount of money changing hands. That means you need detailed knowledge of what is going on behind the curtain. If it even exists a pre-made solution will most likely mine mainly for whoever wrote it with the sucker (you) getting little and worse, probably they will want you to expose wallet keys.
