Thanks for donating, guys. I really appreciate it.
Current average donation levels are 1% BTC and 6% NMC.
This pool with all its software is quite an undertaking for one man to create, and I'll probably never get minimum wage for it. So I can certainly understand pools needing a small fee.
That said, things are going the right way. BitMinter is growing by leaps and bounds at the moment. Hopefully it keeps growing. Also there are more donation perks and other features coming.
It will be interesting to see how the change to 3% fee will be received at OzCoin. Some people even call me greedy even though I run a zero fee pool (because I don't release all the software as open source). But I agree, bills have to be paid, and after that there should still be something left to reward hard work. I think if OzCoin is your favorite pool and you like their work, 3% is not the end of the world. But I would have to ask if you have tried BitMinter.
and generated a deposit address there. I send my NMC to that deposit address and trade them for BTC.
