Hi there,

ETC pools are shutting down ... I wonder is there one that is good and is not shutting down ?

There are lots of options where to mine ETC if the pool you currently using is shutting down you can check ViaBTC pool.
You can also mine in f2pool or if you still looking for other alternatives you can check this link below.

Thank you, I was just too lazy to google it and actually you gave exactly what I needed ... Im f2pool user now :)

sorry for being lazy :) and thank you again.

Gtpool.io offcourse!

I think there is no point in using pools that are below the 7th line of the hashrate rating unless you do it for certain reasons. The very first pools in the ranking have more stable profits because they mine new blocks more often.

Having fewer mining pools means more centralization of ETC, which is a bad thing in the long term. Therefore, if you are an investor, it is better to think about trying to mine something else or sell your ETH as soon as possible.
2miners.com and f2pool.com are suitable options and allow you to mine another ALT pair.

It doesn't matter for ETC anyway.it's been a pretty fucked up chain anyway for one to worry about centralization  :D
The chain has even suffered 51% attacks more than a couple of times: https://neptunemutual.com/blog/ethereum-classic-51-attacks/


mikeywith has something to say about F2pool — https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5481246.msg63489044#msg63489044. You might want to think twice about it.

Just try it

I doubt 2miners will be shut down and they are offering Ethereum Classic from their offerings to the miners,by the way why are you worried for a coin which I believed hard it had a bright future yet I know it doesn't have any future this type of coin,out of all this last bull run it was the only coin who didn't take steam and I doubt it will ever do so after seeing the behavior of Ethereum Classic during this time.

I suggest you stop mining it or put your hash rate to better use as there are much better options to mine unless you have a video card with less than 8 GB of memory then go ahead and mine ETC.

I saw new announcements here. I don’t know about their veracity, but any video card based on this algorithm has long been useless, unless there is a sharp increase in the price of the coin.

ETC is still POW and mining it may bring some profits and it is better to sell it directly rather than take it as an investment.

f2pool is not the only mining pool that tries to lick the government's boots, and they are the second pool to do this list, but the only difference is that no one asked them to do that.
