Re: Mining pools list

[organofcorti]

Can you please update my listing in the first post with the following info:

Hostname: multipool.us (no longer multipool.in)
Fee: 1.5%
Payout Alg: Proportional
Share Difficulty: User-defined
ASIC-ready: Yes

thanks!

Hi flound1129,

Can you tell me a bit more about your modified proportional reward method? It might actually belong in "Prop variant" rather than straight "proportional".

I will PM you.

Updated, as per your request.

Please change Eligius to "pays TX fees? YES!". Its been paying TX fees for something like a week or 2 now.

OK, but I usually only update when a pool op requests it. Could you post a link to the thread where it's mentioned?

What is a TX Reward?

What is the appropriate difficulty for 40-60 GH/s?

What is a TX Reward?

Bitcoin transactions are incurred when sending coins. These fees go to the block finder and currently usually add ~1 btc to the total block reward. Some pools pass these fees on to the miners as extra income, some don't.

What is the appropriate difficulty for 40-60 GH/s?

Updated.

Thanks for keeping this list going.  Good source if info.

[organofcorti]

Np, glad it's useful. Let me know if anything needs fixing or changing.

I'm using BTC Guild right now, but they have a %7.5 fee. Eligius is free. Would I have better luck switching to that pool? Just looking for a nice pool to use and I think because BTC Guild is old and been around a while they have the higher fees.

You should use PPLNS.  PPS makes no sense with BTC Guild's current network share.  Variance over the course of a full difficulty is virtually 0 with BTC Guild's current size.  It's mostly kept around for legacy purposes but everything defaults to PPLNS which is a much lower fee (and pays orphan blocks, txfees, and name coins).

warning for 50btc!

hacked 1 week ago - propably all coins are gone. almost now reply from pool owner. withdraw not possible since 6 days. smells fishy (check hashrate drop). communication bad if any. i would strongly advice u to not farm there until 'we' know whats up.
