Title: starting a mining pool, need suggestions
Post by: rh1n0 on July 24, 2014, 05:42:16 AM
I have recently become "crypto crazy". Now I would like to start a mining pool, but it seems like there are so many! So far I only have a vertcoin pool setup, planning on adding myriadcoin in near future. What features would you like to see in a pool? I want to do some merged mining and maybe some sort of multipool. Let me know what you think!

VTC POOL

STRATUM:   stratum+tcp://rh1n0.us
PORT:               9171
Username:   VTC address
Password:   anything

1% mining fee

you can't get new miners to come unless you already have gigs of hash there. don't waste your energy. get a job at your local mcdonalds is better than starting a mining pool.

Thanks but I disagree. Working at McDonalds for minimum wage is a total waste of energy compared to operating a mining pool. I'm not going anywhere haha fuck fast food my pool will succeed. Why is everybody around here so discouraging?

i think you should start pools for algo/coins which have less options..that way you have better probability and people will spread the hash's

I am kind of confused, what is an example of an algo/coin with less options? I know VTC mining can be extremely complex, but I don't want to mine up all these new X11 scamcoins.
