Title: Which Protoshares (PTS) pool is working the best for you?
Post by: SpeedDemon13 on November 12, 2013, 11:03:50 AM
PTSPool, Alpha Miner Pool, Beeeeer PTS or Ypool PTS?

So far, I have the best success with Beeeeer. Ypool is still buggy and haven't tried the other two. Still it's viable to solo mine still, but the pools make it more of a guarantee to get at least some PTS instead of waiting to get a block on solo mining, if it's not rejected.

PTSPool for me finds shares infrequently but gives a decent return, seems to be working.  Alpha Miner has been up and down.  They find lots of shares but the amount per share is therefore low.  I haven't used beeer.
Ypool seemed good but isn't working anymore.  Is it normal that pools go down so often or is PTS a bit unique?

Ypool is still having issues even when it was up. Beeeeer pays ok, I'm mining with 16 physical cores at the moment. How many cores do you have directed at PTSPool? What's you payout looking per block? I'm averaging 0.02 PTS per block at the moment and just started a little over an hour ago.

I have 25 cores pointed at Beeeeer and i'm doing ok. I haven't tried the others because I'm currently happy mining there. :)

Beeeer is more stable than Ypool at the moment. But Ypool will probably get it right in the next day or so, they are the original cpu mining pool...lol....What's you result with the 25 cores? Are you running physical cores or VPS?

Any updates on this?

I like beeeeer for xpm, but not sure if it's the best choice for pts.-
