Whattomine has been inaccurate for a very long time. A month ago, it was reporting double earnings than the real ones. Now it reports closer to reality, but it is still inaccurate.
Estimating earnings is not that simple and it depends on the time period the average is calculated. If this period is for example one day, the estimations' validity depends on the global hashrate, the pool hashrate, the pool luck, the difficulty and the price of the coin in $. As you may guess, if these numbers fluctuate significantly, then the estimations are quite inaccurate.
For example, you may see that the pool estimates that you will earn 5 coins in 24h. If the difficulty and the increases during these 24h, you will get less coins than expected. If the price in dollars drops as well, then you will get even less dollars!
Let's say I want to see Estimated earnings of coins per day.
let's say Network diff will not change, then WTM will show the correct Estimated earnings ?
