I am starting to get disappointed about this too. Without ability to point to my own pools, I will get out. What other services you can choose to point your miners?

AFAIK, currently only cex.io and nicehash. Not even sure about cex.io. Can someone confirm?

AFAIK, currently only cex.io and nicehash. Not even sure about cex.io. Can someone confirm? Cex mines only on their own pool (ghash.io). Nicehash is not quite a "cloud" service, you rent hashrate from third-party rig owners, so NH is just a broker. Bitmain (Umisoo) allows to chose pools for their hosted hardware, but probably not for the "per GH/s" cloud (HashNest) - I don't own that so don't know for sure. Obviously a couple of issues with pool choice is that you would need to own blocks of hashrate matching the hardware capacity, and pay maintenance fees out of pocket (because revenue goes directly to you and the provider can't take a cut), so it basically becomes hardware hosting.

No need for blocks of fixed hashrate, you could spread the hashrate of a single miner over as many pools/workers as you want. Just count the submitted shares, and switch whenever appropriate. Or do simple time slicing. As for maintenance fees, these can be paid up front if the contract is for a reasonable fixed duration, many cloud providers do that already anyway. Then there is no problem pointing it to any pool you want.

I don't think that would be as simple or as accurate as you make it sound. At least not to the level of 1 or 10 GH/s, which seem to be the common denominations of hashrate in clouds. Splitting a 2 TH/s miner into 100 GH/s pieces - maybe, but with the vastly varying pool difficulties and depending on how pools report hashrate there still might be trouble in getting users to understand how it works.

How long would the free 10 GH/s last? I registered on Hashie yesterday and received my 10 GH/s today..
|
So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.
Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!
Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

It's yours forever. You can't withdraw your earnings unless you buy something.

Maybe after 20 years will make 1 bitcoin lol

Then there is no problem pointing it to any pool you want. I talked with Sahra about this in several PMs. Hashie has already worked out a time-slice mechanism, to the extent that they know there will be a 4% increase in cost associated with time slicing because miners cannot instantly switch like CPUs can so there is a need for extra capacity to handle the time slicing (all of this had already been figured out by Hashie a month or so before when they promised the feature would be coming soon). Not sure why it hasn't been introduced yet. Would love to have it now to mine Paycoin.

Hmm.. seem long but.. worth it. Dont you agree? Two days, and I mined 0.00011616 BTC! Well.. it is better than playing at Freebitco.in.. LoL!

LOL i will give you props and also bust out laughing if you do the 30 weeks to be able to buy 20 GHS minimal required ghs for free without having to spend any bitcoin of your own. Now keep in mind iff diffculty rises may be like 1 year or may be less if drops never know but still funny
