Mining rewards have been increased to 104 PPS% @ http://suqa.elitehash.net! Can it get much better than this?

Even if it was 100% legit the idea is dubious, to be polite. What does it even have to do with mining?

Hello miners, come enjoy great payout rates @ http://rvn.elitehash.net, 100.7% PPS and still going slowly up.

Payout rate increased to 103%, and it's been a few weeks since the last payout delay.

BTW those high reject rates are from someone who is only spamming rejects, they even return from another IP address whenever banned. If you look at the miners list (which only shows miners who actually have accepted shares, too) you'll notice the reject rates are normal for everyone, with this clown having 99.x% rejects if they actually managed to find one valid share at some point. Maybe they're from another pool who don't like to see competition, and want to make the stats look bad?

There's no fee now, we're trying to have the best possible payouts. "Payout rate 102.8%" really means the fee is... -2.8%? That's why we display the payout rate instead of "fees".

Offering 103% PPS at http://gin.elitehash.net/, but everyone is paying a 4% fee at the F2Pool for same kind of PPS payouts, only less. Is it actually just 1 big miner paying a fee for themselves, owning most of the GIN network?

Rejects have been over 1% today, my new approach is to increase the payout rate in situations like this. It's working as intended, can't avoid the higher reject rates totally, but the higher payout rates should compensate. For a moment I thought about making the rate go up automatically in such situations, but that would so ripe for exploitation it's better done manually.

They only do customer support in Twitter. Here you go: https://twitter.com/tradeogre

Never had any problems with TradeOgre, but their lack of communication channels is a bit surprising.

I've toned down the automatic restarts, clearly it wasn't a good approach. Now the needless restarts are kept to a minimum, while rejects are being more closely monitored with automatic restarts of specific ports in case of problems. Overall reject rate is again below 1%, which is the target. It can be higher than elsewhere on this pool, but the high payout rate acts as compensation.

Payouts have been stable now for some time, hoping to keep it that way!

RVN really seems to be the best coin to mine right now. It's been on top of the profitability lists for a long time. What's been a better option, really? For people who don't want to switch the mined coin all the time?

Here's a collective thread for all Elitehash mining pools, which finally have this awesome looking main site: http://elitehash.net

Aiming for good payouts here, not looks.

99.5% of hashrate is on F2Pool according to https://miningpoolstats.stream/gincoin. Now I know it doesn't know about all pools, but that's the worst I've seen for any coin. They're even taking a 4% fee. Why is everyone there?

US Virginia server added today, welcome!

As a result of the changes ensuring no extra shares get counted, all the stratum ports now automatically restart multiple times per day in a continuous rotation. Connections are automatically routed to the slowest port, so the chance that such a restart causes even a second of idling is low. But most miner programs today are too dumb to return from a backup pool on their own. These automatic restarts can trigger the switch to a backup pool, so if you have other pools than Elitehash servers defined, it might get annoying to track if rigs gets stuck on backups too often. Please let me know if this has become a bigger issue - the automatic restarts have been there since the beginning, but with much less frequency until now.

I recommend TradeOgre, never had problems with them and the UI is very responsive & bug-free. Obviously only for coins with sensible volumes there.

I've been using TradeOgre with some coins that don't have many good markets. Never had a single real problem, the only time they had delays in BTC withdrawals that was conveniently displayed as a warning on the balance page before trying to withdraw, and the situation only lasted for an hour or two. Mostly everything just works like you'd expect, even the UI is very responsive and bug-free. Being such a tiny exchange, they'll probably list a coin like Bitcore for little trouble give it a try, https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScolXS8WMCDG7j8dIAbmutrQR6BWD5BrOCcRKJLCFfgPTBwoQ/viewform

Launched a new PPS pool for SUQA, http://suqa.elitehash.net. Direct copy of my other PPS pools, with the newest updates. As usual, you'll get paid good rates without variance, even if you were the only miner on the pool. Payout rates have traditionally been under constant change at Elitehash pools, right now it's 99.2% on SUQA, meaning 0.8% fee. Displaying it that way starts to make more sense when it goes over 100%

Currently paying 98% PPS, check out http://sin.elitehash.net
