Nicehash is anonymous. No one knows who is mining on a BTC address besides Nicehash itself unless you advertise it, same with multipools. I highly doubt devs will ever change their donation address unless they lose their wallet as it's impossible to change all the posts with it.
It seems as though you're trying to take advantage of donating time. Who controls the pool you're talking about? All of this can be done without a specialized pool. This all kinda smells like a business plan..
funny that you say that, because Nicehash IS a business plan
(actually, from time to time it almost seems that this thread is about NiceHash... while it isn't the best choice for mining a coin or just for a coin you want to support...).
Yeah? Not sure what kind of point you're trying to make. Chy is attempting to set up something regarding donations, it should always be donations, not a way to funnel away mining time from people who are donating hashtime to devs.
And yup, mining has definitely moved away from single coins and on to algorithms. On occasion you end up mining single coins, but for the most part you seem to be contributing to someone else that wants to pay a premium to mine certain coins. I don't think there is anything wrong with supporting a coin, but I'd say the majority of miners that take it seriously don't play around.
In this case Nicehash just happens to be the easiest to use service for a voluntary or involuntary mining fee. It's all already setup and can handle larges amount of hash. There are some multipools that can also handle it. Devs can setup a personal pool if they want, but what seems to be the trend in this thread is the more 'effort' that has to be put into anything the less likely devs are going to agree with it.
and that is the whole point ...
it is NOT a way to 'funnel' hashtime ... it is ANOTHER WAY of doanting to the devs ...
and so you are saying that i dont take this seriously? ... and thefarm is one of the larger nvidia farms? ... i take it damn serious - which is one of the reasons it exists ... its all about options - not 'funneling' ...
but you know - you will believe and say and do what you believe say and do ... its just your nature bensam ...
you were the one stipulating a while back that a company needs to be formed for the devs - and now you are 'smelling' that same thing ... which it isnt ...
you were the one pushing towards another way of donating to the devs and i have issued another OPTION ( not forcing anyone ) - and you have an argument about it ...
you were the one saying that nicehash is ripping people by the charges they make ( contradicting the first point about forming a company for the devs ) - and now your backing that same company that we are 'funneling' the miners hashrates ...
im a miner to my CORE ... i have always been - and i will ALWAYS ... its why thefarm is the size it it now - and will contuinue to grow ...
i have used sgminer - ccminer - cudaminer ( in the early days ) - and the different incarnations that come out from time to time ...
there will never be a time that anything 'shady' will be going on - no matter how hard you push that matter ... your contradictions are constant and your accusations are ( not only unfounded but ) completely and utterly false ...
what i have setup is an OPTION ... use it or dont ... thats the crux of it ... NONE of the hash goes anywhere else but the devs address - none of it ... dont trust that? ... kool ... dont mine using the links ...
when you accuse ANYONE of 'funneling' - you are simply stating that no one has a choice in it and that the hashrates they supply is forced ... its NOT ... everyone has a choice - and this is another option they can look at to help with donations to the devs ... there are STILL people donating directly to the btc addresses of the devs here - not just sp ... is that funneling their hashrate also? ...
ill continue to try and add value the best way i can - while you bitch and make nonsensical judgements ... making paradoxical statements is a pasttime of yours obviously ...
if you actually had CONTSRUCTIVE criticism - instead of outright ( as well as round about ) accusations of things that arent there - then i could look at it and improve or adjust the system ... but you dont ... you never really have - even when the devs are trying to make a dollar you bash them for trying because YOU dont agree with the way THEY do it ...
TOUGH! ... its THEIR code - its THEIR time - its THEIR effort you are using for YOUR own advantage AND bashing them for it at the same time ...
you have bashed djm34 for trying to make a living ( private miners ) ...
you have bashed wolf0 for trying to make a living ( private miners ) ...
you have bashed sp for trying to make a living ( private miners ) ...
and now your bashing me for trying to help the devs via community coalition ... and im not making a damn cent out of any of this ... im doing it all for the passion of it ... im so glad you have proven yourself over and over again how much of a spineless twat you are ... bagging everyone but never taking responsibility OR taking action to DO something about it ...
now that we have hijacked sp's thread over this crap you keep bringing up ( and in so many other threads like spreadcoin - of which sp has a private miner as well - DUH! ) - i will apologise for that ... but people like you bensam are just as much to blame for the inherent failings of crypto - as the 'fudsters' that exists in life 'just because they can' ... meanwhile - there are those of us that are trying to make things better - make things easier - and make a living as well ... why dont you help also? ... or is that too difficult to do for you - and bashing those who DO and TRY and GIVE much easier for you? ...
just amazing ... sheesh! ...
