Title: GPUMax Passthrough
Post by: aseldon on June 23, 2012, 09:23:42 PM
Hello Everyone,

(If this is against Pirate's GPUMax rules I will remove the posting. I take no responsibility for GPUMax downtime)
 
I know many of you are on the waiting list to get a GPUMax invite. I am one of the lucky ones who was able to get in a few months ago. Unfortunately, I am a small miner and as such I am not able to take full advantage of GPUMax. What I am offering is to setup separate miners on my account and use those as a sort of "passthrough." I am thinking that charging a small 5% fee to use my GPUMax account is reasonable. Right now when purchases are running I make easily over 10% extra on GPUMax so you will still be better off than a standard pool. Here is how I plan to set it up:

1. Start with 1 user and their miner to make sure I don't overwhelm my accounting abilities (you may choose your own PPS price or use the price I do).
2. Setup a unique GPUMax worker.
3. Setup the backup pool. That way when purchases aren't running your hashing power goes right back to your normal pool.
4. GPUMax has recently added the ability to see how many BTC each worker has made. I will take the total for 1 week of mining (0000 Monday - 2359 Sunday) and when Pirate pays out on Monday I will send 95% of the mining profits for the week :).

I would like to start with just one user preferably with a high has rate, 5 - 10 GH/s, to make profits worth my while. To start I can also do payouts more frequently to prove I am not a scammer. Let me know if you would like to take advantage of this or any tips you may have thanks everyone.

P.S. Here is a positive transaction with a member on the board for a large sum of BTC. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83973.msg934860#msg934860 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83973.msg934860#msg934860)

Since pirate pays out everyday so should you be able to, the only days I have not seen payout are when they are small little ones of around .1-.3btc owed.

David_Benz had a GPUMax passthrough here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83991) (I know that it was a GPUMax passthrough because I signed up and he told me via PM); Pirate made him shut it down.

Yup. The point of invites at GPUMAX is to limit volume, as opposed to BS&T, where Pirate wants to ensure trustworthiness. In the former case, a passthrough would not be conducive to the functionality of the service. In the latter it wouldn't be an issue.
