Title: Software to share mining earnings with group
Post by: nexus99 on February 12, 2014, 05:45:05 AM
A group of friends and I are going to split the cost of an asic miner. Is there any software out there to help distribute the proceeds of the mining? There will be 10 of us so it would be nice to have an app that can keep everyone's public key and do the split math and work in the cost of the transaction fee, etc.

You can run BFGMiner or cgminer with a --quota argument instead of the normal -o argument for specifying the pool URL. By doing so you can list a series of pools (or one pool with different worker names and passwords) to split up the hashing.

You can use Cex.io to do this.

Method 1

Mine with cex/ghash.  Use their distribute feature to have 10% go to 10 different addresses.  All earnings will be divided however you want.

Method 2

Mine with whoever you want. (BTC, bitminer etc).  Have their earnings deposited to the CEX deposit address.  Then use the cex distribute feature.  This way you aren't mining at all at ghash (which some people take issue with),  but you can use their distribution feature for free.  Only catch is that it introduces at 24 hour delay in the distribution of earnings.




I use method #2.   I have different pools all depositing btc earnings at CEX.  Once a day cex distributes the btc earnings to the addresses I specify, in the % I specify.

The second method seems to be a great idea. Thinking about doing the same
