Here's the proof that was private messaged to me that shows H2O is scamming and taking much higher than 3% fee:
I've mentioned to someone for a few weeks now that MiddleCoin is starting to have the earmarks of a pool scam, like ArsBitcoin and Bonus Pool have done. (Look up threads on Burning Toad or Clipse for more info, or I can find the threads if you like...)
I see even more earmarks lately.
H2o can clearly run a pool. But, suddenly, he seems to not be able to run a pool anymore. Two servers even running completely different configs. Clipse pulled this same stuff.
(Actually, i wouldn't be shocked if Clipse has returned as H2o, but I haven't investigated that possibility...)
Suddenly MiddleCoin isn't even mining the most profitable coin.
Ridiculous accusations you say?
Here's my typical farm on MiddleCoin:
http://middlecoin2.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/reports/1BAdzvknPux2zqG2eNawvgitCW1aqwE4bb.htmlHere's a rig pointed the past week or so at MiddleCoin, but sneakily using a different wallet (nothing wrong with this, but I wanted to see if the two graphs would differ):
http://middlecoin2.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/reports/137Y2XKQH9qHRDPL5dBNq7xUL3XSeL9uPg.htmlAs you can see, in the past few days they really look different.
My farm's unexchanged is actually going down (after H2o "fixed" some DB error whatever), while the single rig is going up.
Look at the previous days' graphs, they all look similar. Until the past few days, and the past 24 hrs especially.
I did this split rig deal as my graphs were looking quite different from the pool's total graph. Unexchanged was going up, while mine would flatline.
And yup, move a rig to a different wallet address, suddenly it looks better.
New wallet? Give it a better payout. Bait them to stay, make them think higher payouts will come. Then lower them cleverly after a few weeks.
Seen this before. And I'm seeing it again.
It's a scam pool. Same people defending it tooth and nail right now will be the same ones crying foul when H2o splits with hundreds of BTC (which by the end of the yr, will be valued at millions $ or so...)
I just got this spat at me by the EU server:
a bunch of rejects
rejected (Job 'DOG_a2' not found)
DOG? Isn't it on LTC? That's what H2O said he switched it to
http://middlecoin2.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/reports/18YXY35z1HgMoKqBFgiShGuqnhR7zdwwC6.htmlThat guy a crap-ton of hashing power (150,000 hash rate) Obviously he knew it was time to leave.
(and his graphs look like my farm, instead of like my single rig/pool graph. His mining wasn't following what the pool was saying either)
'That guy' is me. I leaved because H2o is not communication very well. But I am back with a different address right now. If this pool is not fixed by monday - i am gone here.
