25 Ghash - Solo mine? Or GPUMax?

[BinaryMage]

I mine with p2pool for the cool factor more than anything

I like how it brings Bitcoin back toward its more primitive state, when there were not pools which could have influence on development.

Interesting choice of phrase. I'd probably go for "less centralized".

Whatever you do, don't mine at Deepbit. Tycho's a nice guy, but his pool controls way too large a percentage of the network for anyone's safety.

Well it appears that he has competition from other pools with slush at 12%, Deepbit only at 9%.

Also appears to be a large amount of "unknown" miners.

not sure where you are looking to see that (Ozcoin was biggest Bitcoin pool recently according to blockchain.info 24 hour chart)
http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/top.php is recognised as the most accurate atm

Deepbit has about 3 TH/s, or about 30% of the network. I'm not talking about 24 hour distribution, that's susceptible to a lot of variance.

As long as you don't mind your cards being used for shady purposes.

That's the 2nd time you said that in this thread. You need to understand people letting GPUMax lease their shares don't give a flying fuck where their shares are going, as long as they make extra profits.

And you don't always know its "Shady". What if someone is leasing shares because he wants to test out his new private pool and needs a stress test?

I thought that you can only purchase work to approved pools.

Oh, well that makes it even less shady imo.
