Title: Avalon users - merged mining NMC? Post by: iammagicmike on July 02, 2013, 06:47:34 PM I'm a proud owner of a single Avalon for 2 weeks today. I've reviewed different mining pools (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Comparison_of_mining_pools) but currently I really love Slush's pool because of the following:
I'm interested in running in a merged mining pool for about a week or two so I can compare the payouts of Slush's BTC mining vs another pool's merged BTC+NMC. I've had great luck so far with Slush's pool, on average 1.9 BTC/day (70.4 GH/s), but I'm interested to see what payouts I would get with the Avalon. I am certainly closer to a newb than I am a pro. From what I understand about mining with an Avalon, it is in my best interest to find a pool that supports Stratum. Naturally, I also would like to least amount of fees. Could anyone comment on their experiences with merged mining?
I understand that Slush's pool is simply one of the best, a 2% fee is well spent. Slush also shares the transaction fees (according to the wiki) which adds a little value. I have no intention on jumping to another pool just because they have merged mining, it has to be worth the move. If other users comment with their data, it would help me make a better decision. I appreciate any help. -iammagicmike Title: Re: Avalon users - merged mining NMC? Post by: Bogart on July 02, 2013, 08:47:31 PM When I poolmine I do it on mmpool.bitparking.com. They pay me BTC, NMC, DVC, and IXC all at once.
I am definitely mining there just because of the MM support, and am sacrificing other niceties like charts. |
