On a (possibly) related note: Does anybody know what the recent jump in pps rate was caused by?
We don't maintain a public list, but right now we are merge-mining: Bells, Canada eCoin, Dingocoin, Dogecoin, Luckycoin, Myriad, Pepecoin, Viacoin, Worldcoin.
The recent jump in PPS rate was mostly due to the rise in price of LKY.
Junkcoin is adding a significant amount of profit to pools that mine it such as Mining-Dutch. Can this be added to the merge-mined coins here?
We are looking into it, but don't expect it to make a huge difference. At its current profitability level, it would affect the PPS ratio by less than 1%.
On mining-dutch, a Bitmain L9 16G in one day makes $69.79 worth of DOGE, and $16.91 worth of JKC (Junkcoin)
My bad, I didn't account for the fact that JKC's difficulty is still low because it only adjusts every 1440 blocks. With all scrypt miners on it, it would have a factor of about 7x to catch up to, and get there in about a week's time. (We're currently looking into this among other things.)
Still, the figures you quote must be for the luckier side of proportional-type results. The ideal-world (100% PPS) output from DOGE is currently about $58 a day at 16 GH/s.
