Title: Cloud mining that allows me use my own pool
Post by: osoverflow on January 03, 2014, 07:48:57 AM
Hi! I want to know if there is a cloud mining service that allows me to write my own mining pool url user and password.

Currently all that I see in the market uses their own pool, and I want to choose my own pool, and only use their hashing power.

Thank you

I would be interested in such a service as well.

Why exactly would it be better ?
I don't think it would make a difference in payout.

Is it a trust issue ?

Trust is an issue, but I think diversity is a more important one. We just saw HHTT close its doors and I expect some other pools will as well when they experience similar longer periods of dry luck. I would feel a lot better about renting temporary hash power if it were going somewhere other than ghash.io, for example.

I want to choose the pool with better reward and lower fees. And maybe another coin with the same hashing type.

That would require them to actually own as much hash rate they're selling.  That's asking quite a lot from "cloud mining" services.

BFL allows the user to select the pool but with their track record that is a risky pre-order.

LOL.  Too true.

It's never ceases to amaze me at how Bitcoin participants consistently reward the least ethical people in the business.
