I personally think that it depends at the end how much that bring to your pocket. If on the big pool you get more, stay there. If on the small pool you get more, you stay on the small pool. Big not always is better. Stability is also other side of the question. Just keep in mind that at the pool with low hashrate you need to mine at least 60 to 90 blocks to get good statistics.

I've been mining ETN for a few days now, but wondered what people with more experience would rather have out of a pool with a few hundred miners, but a very low hash rate or a pool with 10k+ miners and a hash rate around 20 times bigger.
I don't know whether to stick with the pool I'm currently in or switch to one with a higher hash rate.
After mining for a few months, I have realized a few things. The size of the pool makes no difference. It just affects the frequency of payment. Big pools find blocks frequently, so you get your small share of the reward frequently but with small pools you get a big chunky reward at once but it may take days or weeks. However, over a significant period of time, you earn the same. What's more important is how reliable the pool is. Most pools are highly unreliable and often go down as they don't have competent admins to protect against DDOS or high loads. Some of them don't even record your hashrate correctly. So I say stick with the pools having the highest uptime irrespective of how much fee they charge. A difference of 1% fee won't kill you but frequent downtimes definitely will.

Anybody noticed low earnings last day on space pool? I noticed big jumps in hashrate in and out , probably due to the nicehak users 'getting' our profits

Perfect answer - this is exactly the kind of information I was looking for an pretty much confirmed what I was thinking. I'm mining on hash party as the OP seemed to quite like it and I must say it's been reliable and pays out just fine. It's just a shame the hash rate has dropped so much on the UK pool that there's only a block every 11 hours or so.

I have my gaming pc running 2 8gb sapphire rx580s i7, Ucrypto was giving me 60/day w/stacker, 3 blocks a day, I was getting 20 per, then they hit 2 orphans in a row a few days back, the whole network hit zero blocks for hours. Eventually I saw the network hitting blocks again, but not Ucrypto. Jumped to spacepools, never been happier. Pulling down 90-100 a day. I'm staying there for a bit, at least a thousand etn. Spacepools for the win.
*** Edit because I unfairly smeared UK, apologies, it was ucrypto etn pool., NOT UK, as I initially posted. Corrected.

Their new SUMO pool is only paying 32.x SUMO per block instead of 36.x. Beware of any pool that says they have "0% fee".

I tried different pools and have found also there is not much difference between hashrate of the pool if you see that pool is able to find at least 10 -20 blocks per 24 hours. After checking several of the pools for best payout I stopped at etn.fairhash.org, I get more then on any other pool I tried sofar. The community there speak russian, but admin speak english if you need help, just wait for him in chat.

Hi All, I'm mining on etn.spacepools.org and my hash rate is little over 8K. Seems like my payouts are reducing. Do you have any idea about this?

I've noticed the same. The pool is doing a lot of extra effort to find blocks. I would also like to hear what is going on.

Definitely spacepools has slowed down. I waited 2 days to be sure. You can see in the blocks list huge gaps of 45 minutes to an hour with no blocks. If you scroll way back through the list you can see it started 3 days ago, and it seems to be happening more frequently. And hey ucrypto guy, your pool hit double orphan and freeze for hours two times in 3 days. I respectfully suggest that you have your own issues to adress.

Man I thought I was going crazy these last few days, trying to figure out what was going on. I thought there was something wrong with my miners or that maybe the site had been updating incorrectly. Do you think there's a chance they'll find their way back to normal speeds or maybe it's time to jump ship to another pool?

I've also had goodluck with them, I tried a few different pools for a few days and I think i'll be switching back to fairhash.

I agree, we had been using this space pool for about 2 weeks but in recent 3-4 days they yield much less than usual. Now switched to fairhash pool and enjoy mining there.
