Title: Time for Prop pools to charge a fee?
Post by: martychubbs on February 09, 2012, 06:51:21 PM
I think if miners on prop pools paid a fee, then the pool ops would find an incentive to keep mining their own pools.  I am liking NMCbit & Bitclockers and those models may become more popular as smaller prop pools dry up?  Thoughts?

It's time for prop pools to go away.  Prop pool dedicated miners and pool operators have been largely choosing to ignore the unfixable flaw inherents in proportional payouts.  It's time to come to grips with reality and switch to a non-hopable payment scheme.

It's time for hoppable pool to disappear, seriously.

And maybe it's time people start to use p2pool...
