Quote Neighbourhood Pool Watch 1.5: Bitclockers.com summary (http://organofcorti.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/15-bitclockerscom-summary.html) Starts here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=66026.msg779543#msg779543) Neighbourhood Pool Watch 1: No-one should mine at Bitclockers (http://organofcorti.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/no-one-should-mine-at-bitclockerscom.html) I gave Bitclockers.com an opportunity to explain themselves on the bitclockers.com thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=10127.msg760406#msg760406) with no answer to my concerns. So I've decided to post what I know about how they are underpaying their fulltime miners. From the post: Quote if Bitclockers.com are reporting block solve times accurately, they are underpaying their miners by about 21%. Since they have claimed they actually are reporting round lengths correctly, the only conclusion we can draw is that fulltime miners at Bitclockers.com are receiving only 79% of what they should be paid. Who's to know how long they have been doing this? and Quote So here's my first rule in choosing a mining pool: organofcorti's first rule of Bitcoin mining : Do not mine at a pool that publishes false statistics. A corollary of this is: Do not mine at Bitclockers.com until they disclose their actual records.
