When you look at mining pools, what do you look for?


What makes a good mining pool?


Are the things you hate?

Or do you just use whatever?

It is not easy to say if there is a "best" pool. But if you are looking for a reliable one, I believe kano.is is a safe choice, good transparency too and reputable service.

a pool should also offer different multi-algo coin accumulation variants, not only most profitable "now", but also something where I can accumulate coins based on low difficulty, because nobody wants to mine them "now". and free selection/grouping of my multi-algo selection (from what's available in the pool of cause), alternativly to fixed variants. maybe someone understand?

I'm still learning all the pool things server and such.

I just wish there was a pool based on higher coin values not lower.

BCC or Bitconnect is worth 200.00 a coin LTC is worth 54 a coin I think no pool should mine any coin worth less than 1 dollar US

take zpool for example today lots and lots of beaver coin worth 0.02 according too his site yet only worth 0.000000834 BTC according to true values.

I did some estimates if he used all his hashing power of 610 Gh/s in scrypt and only mined two coins BCC and LTC my average profits per day would be 0.02 BTC

That would be awesome but since the pool mines the garbage coins worth pennys average is about 0.005 or 0.004 a day.

At that rate I might as well shut off my miners because it cost me 5.78 dollars a day to run them.

I am not really looking for the best pool, I am just trying to understand what people like and don't like

Can you tell more about multi-algo coin accumulation variants that you would like to see?

I'd say uptime, the low fee and a low ping

Its not about coin value,
the pool calculate how many coin reward per block and how many block per hour, and the most important is the diff
