The pool website has a 'Registration closed' message, so for the moment I've removed Deepbit from the list and placed them here: (in case the pool starts up and I need it again) |

Why is antpool missing?
Isn't that a hardware manufactures private pool? It might have been private once. Nowadays they publish connection information: https://www.antpool.com/home.htmAccording to the FAQ it's PPLNS (0% Fee) Ah, OK, then I would guess that they have not asked to be put on this list. Thanks Yes, os2sam is correct - they haven't approached me with their pool's details yet. |

Lets see how reliable blocktrail.com will be instead
I've been using them for a while, reliable so far. |

Yesterday I saw over 100 cars on the road that I didn't recognize. I think it's safe to say that it was the same guy driving all of them and that his name is "Unknown". He must be very rich to have so many cars.  Not sure if you refer to my posting. However, the 27 blocks from "Unknown" were mined by the company which is financing MBP, so I assume they are the same... not excluding, though, that I'm totally wrong. I'm basing my results on many different generation addresses that MBP uses, not just coinbase signature, and I update my list regularly. I don't think Blockchain has updated their MBP addresses for a while. ... and they haven't updated their coinbase info from git for more than two months  https://github.com/blockchain/Blockchain-Known-Pools/issues/20So who knows how reliable any of their pool detection is. These slackers get other people to do their work for them, and then don't even use it! I appear to be outraged! I'd imagine every week you're shocked that they haven't updated the information, as well. Quite so. |

No, I'm fine with Google products generally, just not authenticator. Much prefer to use a Yubikey. |

I like 2fa, but only of the yubikey type. I really don't want to use Google authenticator.

SargeR33, can you explain the following comments? Unless you have big power, any of those chinese pools are going to pay very poorly.
If you support those chinese pools(f2pool, ghash, btc china etc) you're part of the problem btc is facing. Get out of there.
If you have 1thash of power, your payout from f2pool is 0.01097974 per day. With 1thash on power on Slush you will make the same amount with 3 - 4 blocks, depending on pools power and the luck. Apart from the last week, and only the last week, I've made approx .03 - .04 btc per day from Slushs pool. This is not even over a 24hr period. From BFA you will stand to make .012 btc per day and that is not including the bonus if I recall correctly. Sure power to pay scales the higher you go, but like I said, for a small user, you will be slaughtered with power bills running a miner 24hrs a day to earn <$2.50 USD per day. For what, a pool which quite likely insta dumps the btc they find. The pay on Ghash.io is also far too poor to be effective. Honestly I've had better overall luck at MMpool than I have at any of those big dominating pools. Sure you get consistency but its such minute amount its not worth it at all. I may have made a mistake about ghash.io being a chinese pool, I bought two miners from a local here(who was chinese) and he mined ghash.io because "they're a chinese pool". It took him 6 months of mining ghash.io 24/7 with 2.25thash to break even with his miners cost, this does not include power. This was factoring in my purchase off him too. I've read here many times that those Chinese pools are a problem. I don't think btc is being treated the way it was intended to be. Its severely abused. Especially when you can find miners being dumped on eBay from China as "Brand new" when you know they have been thrashed and run non stop for who knows how long. I haven't read anything about Chinese pools being bad. In fact, all I hear about AntPool, for example, are good things. I could be wrong, so can you post some links you mention reading (about Chinese pools being a problem)? |

Newbs gunna be noobs? Sheep follow herds? What kind of answer are you seeking here? Because I bet it will be at least as interesting as the ones you were quoting. I'm always interested in the things on which people base their assumptions. "Chinese pools are bad" is a new one on me so I wanted to see if it was part of a new anti-chinese bitcoin movement or something. |

UN enforcing heavy gun ban all over the USA.
All states must now comply to the gun ban laws.
Ha! Sprung! You totally made that one up, Tom. There is *no* US-wide gun ban enforced by the UN. You'll find out soon... Obongo illegally signed the USA on to a weapons treaty that, in effect, prevents the transport of guns and ammo across international boundaries. It holds no merit in the USA and UN Laws do not trump the US Constitution. Regardless of gun and ammunition export treaties, I repeat there is *no* US-wide gun ban enforced by the UN. |

Is Ghash even Chinese?
No, not close. Not even chinese-ish. |

I don't think Blockchain has updated their MBP addresses for a while. I don't look for 'relayed by' since for that to be accurate your client would need to be connected to every pool client. Unless you know all the pool client IP addresses, you'll actually need to be connected to all clients. Today blockchain.info is only connecting to 1600 nodes, and that's only about a fifth of all possible nodes, so "Relayed by" will only be approximate. |

where has all the hashrate gone?
Judith Durham wrote a song about that in the 70's
I thought it was 'Peter, Paul and Mary" and in the 1960s. |

Maybe ASICMiner is Unknown? Unknown group - very interesting guys, they change address every month, so it's somebody very secretive  I haven't seen any evidence of this, and I can't find any large bitcoin income for ASICMiner from blocks solved by unknown sources. |
