A PPS/variant of PPS pool like abc/btcguild/eligius is good for casual miners. Go take a look in the pools subforum and pick the one with the lowest fee.Title: Re: Best pools for my hashrate? Post by: moocow1452 on March 17, 2012, 03:51:55 AM P2Pool is good if you want to pay nothing on transactions, but stale shares are worthless. Also, bitminter is good if you just want to start mining instantly, since the entire miner is in Java.

You should find the most trustworthy pool with the best PPS rate and mine there. Agreed.Of all the times I would suggest P2Pool, it's only if you're constantly going mine all day/night. |
