THANKS FOR REPLY

----------------------------------------

I see there are indications of fraud from a big bitcoin mining pool company, which redirects our power hashrate miners to other mining pools.

what do you think?
at this time I'm not willing to mention it,
but someday I have to mention it here because this is outrageous and fraudulent behavior

Perhaps you just encountered a hack and someone redirects your hashrate, this happens quite often, first you need to contact the pool support service and ask them if the ip to which the redirection is going to be their address, often large pools use several servers for load balancing.

I see no evidence for what you're saying.
If this is not a hack, then perhaps the hashrate is sent for mining other more profitable coins on the same algorithm.
If the hashrate behind your mining equipment does not match the hashrate on the mining pool, then you need to check your equipment. Large well-known pools do not engage in such fraud.

I am also not seeing any indication of this and right now I am even using one pool that is ranked lower compared to others and by mining the algorithm that I do mine,we are just 18 miners,anyone can take over this pool if they wanted yet they do not care.Also every big pool has mechanisms in place to check for fraudulent activity,the big ones for sure have state of art or next generation firewalls with the latest technologies because there are a lot of hackers who want to make a quick buck by redirecting the pool hash rate to their address.As long as this is not happening you have nothing to worry.

there are indications that we can both see at https://mempool.space
there is a bit of explaining,  
when the block with long time - and it relation to other pools that get, I see the hashrate is almost the same

I just want to give a warning, so they don't act fraudulently

Need Mitigation

So why are you advising in altcoins instead of bitcoin forum. 

Seems you dont really understand where you should post. 

That's called luck.

I think you need to explain it a little better. Why exactly do you think that one company redirects hashrate from one mining pool to another? Are there specific indications or pieces of evidence that you've noticed that led you to this conclusion?
