Topic: [ANN] New BTC pool, stratum, vardiff, outrageous pool-fee (25%) (Read 930 times)
Very interesting idea. I was just chatting with my wife about a similar pool idea last night. A couple of questions - what influenced your decision to choose 23% for the charitable amount? How did you identify your initial list of charities, and are you limited to charities that only accept BTC? Do the donations come from you as an individual, or through the Angel Miners business entity (should there be one)? Thanks for the replies!

Stop ego mining, start sharing! That's our motto at the Angel Miners pool.
The Angel Miners Pool has the most revolutionary and transparent fee-policy of all mining pools: we charge an outrageous mining fee of 25% !
We pay you 75% of your income based on the PPLNS method (pay per last 'n' shares) and we keep the rest... That would sound like robbery in any other perspective...
The Angel Miners Pool spends 25% of it's Bitcoin mining revenue on charity! 2% of which is kept by the pool for maintenance and infrastructure. We let you vote on your personal charity from a selected flavor of reputable International projects. We distribute the remaining 23% of our mining income among the charity projects proportionally to the miners' votes. Donations are made on a 30 day basis.
This is 2014, this is charity 2.0!
Please read about our pool and our mission at https://www.angelminers.org
We'd like to invite you to participate in our 2 month beta test period, through may 1 2014.
During the test period you'll be rewarded 1BTC if you mine a block.
Thanks and kind regards,
Martin Beek.
