- Flypool reports 24h hashrate right there in the graph. It's the rightmost orange dot or the value reported at the top for average, e.g.

- Luckpool only gives you a 12h average, which is shit (and all miner stats are lost when their GUI goes down, which it does almost daily), it's the small number at the bottom of the first box:

STOP using Luckpool. You're aware that it gives a full coin to the block finder (that "jackpot" shit they have), and reduces the payout for everyone else, right (block finder gets 1 ZEN, everyone else shares only 10 ZEN instead of 11 ZEN)? This advantages the large miners. You will lose profits with it unless you have a large hashrate larger than the majority and you mine for very long periods uninterrupted. Don't listen to the idiots who claim that everyone has the same chance to find a block and get the jackpot. That only holds if *everyone* mines an infinite amount of time. Otherwise, guess who will find more blocks per unit time, and who is more likely to leave the pool before they find a block? Anyone with some statistics background can see the scam behind this. If that bullshit were true, casinos would be going bankrupt, instead of thriving (they have more money than you).
Go build your own cuda miner
Awww, isn't that cute. There had to be someone who'd resort to the fabulous and very constructive argument of "do it yourself if you don't like it" ... sounds like you're either a genius who can do everything and needs nobody or are content with everything thrown at you. If you're happy paying bminer 2% despite some suspicions of fraud, good for you. Some of us aren't. Some of us care about frauds being exposed if they are indeed frauds.
Fraudulent behaviors will not get you very far and it hurts the community. That's not what I'm interested in.
I see that the relationships between miners and developers are partnerships -- the mission of the developers of bminer is to bring the best mining software to the community. The miners can benefit from a faster and more reliable miner.
There are significant amount of users that are actively using bminer and getting more payouts from the pools every single day. That's the value that bminer brings to the community and that's what I care about. If there are bugs that prevent you to get the maximal benefits from the hardware then I'm more than happy to look into it and try to fix them for you.
To the technical points, there are some confusions about the connections to api.bminer.me. I explained a few times that bminer will request runtime and licensing information from time to time. It might be a better idea to add it explicitly to the LICENSE file, I'll try to do it in the next release.
Bminer is a relatively new miner and I understand that it might not get the benefits of doubts. I can assure that there are no fraudulent behaviors in the miners, it is always difficult to claim or verify the statements given that it is close-source miners. The argument not only applies to bminer, but also any closed-source miners, including dstm, Claymore, and EWBF. If there are no mutual trusts between miners and developers then FUDs can fly around -- therefore I think it is always a good idea to test whether the miner works well for you. At the end of the day the important thing is to mine more efficiently.
I would suggest not using bminer, or any other miners if you don't trust them or you do not agree with the LICENSE file. There are slightly slower, but solid implementations for EquiHash miners available (e.g., kudos to nheq). While I'm trying hard to make the miner work well for you as many other users, at the end of the day it is always important to find the miners that work best for you and you're comfortable with (e.g., open-source miners).
