You are correct, the payouts are higher than other pools and other algos. At least for now.
I regularly check poolpicker.eu to see what's going on.

Hi all!

Some people demand transparency and I came up with a "Pay Per Speed" payment idea for GRS miners (BTC mining stays PROP for now).

This is a variation of "Pay Per Share", where each for each "Accepted" share you are given some coins.
Because the miner can switch between algorithms, share from one algo has different price from a share from other algo.
In order to overcome this, I'll be "buying" your hashrate and paying proportional to your mining speed.

Each day there will be a GRS price per 1 MH/s of hashrate mining 24 hours straight. I'll be publishing it in twitter.

This price will be 1000 GRS per MH/s for tomorrow. The value will be set once a day during payouts. Similar to exchange rate in banks.
So you can decide for yourself if you want to mine on this pool or not before even doing any mining.

This way, any risks like incorrect forks or "bad luck on pool" do not apply to you.
All risks are on pool operator.

Of course, the statistics will show your detailed hashrate and you'll be able to see in real time how these numbers increase.

For example, if you have a 600KH/s R9 280X and you mine for 12 hours on my pool, you will get 300 GRS (0.6MHS * (12/24) * 1000GRS = 300GRS).
This way you can immediately decide if you want to mine on boostpool.com today or not: just take your hashrate, multiply by per MH/s price and multiply by GRS price and you'll get your profit in BTC.
Compare it with other pools using poolpicker.eu and decide. For example R9 290 is 930KH/s (0.93 MH/s), GRS price is 0.00000200 BTC. That gives you 0.00186 BTC per day.

Or if you are GRS supporter, then just mine here. The price will continue to rise every day until a certain level (I think 500 - 1000 satoshi). Then it'll be harder to predict, we'll see...

Please note that 3.5% of total GRS payout will be donated to GRS community for paying for various projects. For example, if all GRS miners got 64,000 GRS paid one day, then donation is 2240 GRS.

PS: This way the payouts can also be simplified and run not manually once a day but automatically every hour. I'll work on this later, now primary goal is to show proper stats.

Thanks

I did not remove it, I just rebranded it into boost-sgminer. And the link is still available on 1st page of this thread.

It even has a comment for curious souls like you.

More than half of multipool miners get BTC as payouts, not GRS.

As for GRS - yes, it's good for GRS.
And no, I don't have a big bag of GRS. But I have enough and I bought them myself for around 400-500 satoshi on mintpal and poloniex a few months ago.
I did not get them for free, like the 5% that DMD devs get or AidBit. And I did not get them from premine.
I posted even long time ago, that I see GRS price at 700 satoshi or even more. I tried to hold the price previously, but could not.
So it went down into 100+ satoshi range.

Now I have means to hold the price. And I am going to move it to 500 or even to 700-1000.

Wanna get some profit? Buy GRS now and sell in 1 month or 2 weeks.
The price has already risen from 105 to 180.

PS: Not sure if you know, but I am also paying out 10% of grs fee to support Groestlcoin.

Why do you state cryptohunger.com fee as 20%?

Where did you even get this number?

From that "HR" guy?

After all, look at block explorer and do your own maths.

Actually, I thought more on this and I take your point. Having this optimized miner is not good for a coin, because of the fee dumping.
And BTW, I did not dump it. I was selling it and trying not to go too low. Cause I could just drop millions of DGB and probably it wouldn't have been that nice for exchange rate.

But... it is good for a multipool!

Cause on multipool, especially the BTC multipool, miners don't care about anything other than the price they are getting per MHS every day.

And I am stating that price and even publishing transaction IDs.

If you want to see me as the dark force of crypto world... So be it. I'm fluttered.

I am not transparent and I don't want to explain myself or provide details... Just leave my pool if you are not happy.

PS: I'm deleting only stupid posts. Like "you're scammer" without providing any proof or explanation.

Not true, but whatever. I am not going to persuade you.

I can even keep this post of yours here if you like.

Fair and to the point.

For some miners this is bad and I recommend them to move on.
For some miners it is ok and they stay on the pool.

And BTW, there are wattage measurements somewhere in grs-sgminer forum, so that is not hidden.

fuck off

I do whatever I want. I write whatever I want and don't write what I don't want to write.

I am not going to disclose me fees. That's my position.

I'm not going to delete this post. I don't like when somebody calls me a scammer.
I really hate it. Cause I'm not a scammer. I am a professional developer and my time costs a lot.

I never disclosed my fees, so I did not lie to anyone. And I am not going to lie in future. The hashrate that you see is what you are paid for.
And If I can make mining 5X faster, I'll create a miner with 80% fee. Just wait for it :-)

You don't like it - don't use my miner and my pool.

I even changed the wording on cryptohunger.com:81 to this:

What you see in grs-sgminer is what you are paid for (your displayed hashrate is premultiplied by the fee). No other fees on top of that.
Fee is undisclosed and is rather high. If you don't like this - please find some other pool

Wrong guess. But whatever, I don't care...

Statistics on the website is currently switched off.

Values are not changing, that's ok. I'm working on it.

Mining is fine.

9 September stats:

136.315MH/s in 10 BTC users, 0.00179768 BTC per MHS
53.772MH/s in 25 GRS users, 1190.51792 GRS per MHS

If you need to specify a failover stratum server, please use stratum+tcp://optimizedpool.com:3333. This is a temporary server, I'm using it for development. Don't set it as primary server, only as secondary.

I'm not even going to delete this stupid post (even though I could).

There is no "double wallet" trick. There is optimized kernel which is a lot more profitable than sph-sgminer. I wrote it. I'm getting fee from it.
I don't see any problem with that.
My kernel allows my miners to get 10% - 30% more profit and it allows me to get some fee from it.

I'm going to write these optimized kernels for other algos as well. It just takes quite a bit of time.

As for dumping DGB... Of course I sold them, I have no use for them. I am only interested in BTC and GRS.

Thanks

> How is my payment? times a day in an hour ... or more like that? Thank you

Hi!

Sorry, I do not understand the question.

Thanks

> -k optimized write invoked. Is this normal?
Yes

> And sometimes shuts down miner what can be?
Possibly, the overclock values are too high.

Could you share your configuration please? And your speed.

Thanks

Yesterday's numbers are:
32 users, 99.691 MH/s Total

49.952MH/s in 9 BTC users, 0.12071917 BTC total (0.0024167034352979 BTC per MH/s)
49.739MH/s in 23 GRS users, 92465.61762020 GRS total (1859.016418106516 GRS per MH/s)

> Thanks for the quick reply, another quick question, I have added _1 _2 behind my address for pool username. But when I view my rig in boostpool.com it doesn't show each rig. Did I do anything wrong?

It should be fine. I haven't done the per-worker statistics yet. Should be done shortly (this week probably).
Sorry about this.

If you are getting "accepted" in grs-sgminer, then all is ok.

PS: If you are worried, please PM me with your wallet address and I'll look it up for you in the backend system.

Thanks

Hi!

You are correct. The failover server is being set up and will be available shortly.
If you really need to write something right now, please use stratum+tcp://optimizedpool.com:3333 But it is not working yet.

PS: Later the stratum servers will be available at sf1.boostpool.com and ny1.boostpool.com (for San Francisco and New Work locations respectively). But right now it is not possible, as the allowed server names are baked in inside grs-sgminer.
