Are you like these guys?

I'd anticipate a number of improvements in the site over time but it's worth pointing out to some of the new miners in the pool that the site was attacked a month ago and in the hack, all miners coin balances were stolen and the user database fully compromised.

The pool operators took the honourable and unique step of reimbursing miners for their seven days earnings leading up to the attack. They then worked tirelessly over the holiday period to get the functionality and security of the site restored. It's been a tough time for those guys and I'm sure they'll get round to cosmetic and functional changes when they've got the core fully strengthened and previous functionality fully back up-to-speed.

In the meantime, welcome, hang in there and enjoy the Hashcows experience.

Will you guys be making an effort anytime soon to make the site more mobile-browser friendly?

Don't get me wrong, your site is decades ahead of pools like Middlecoin who look like a notepad document, I love the look of the site when I'm on my computer. But if I use my Droid's browser (or the Chrome app) there is no black bar at the top to navigate through the site. To view my stats, change account settings, etc. I have to know the URLs by heart (or make bookmarks) to be able to get to any page other than the homepage.

Making it more mobile-friendly would be fantastic for everyone wanting to view stats or do coin management away from their computer, and I bet it would help boost the site's popularity as well.

Just started mining at your pool. Looks promising!

Is it possible to update your layout or make it look a little bit more professional?

No.

The point of profit-switching pools is the higher payout, not decorative crap.

Why not mine a new coin like NobleCoin or DigiByte? They are tradable on coinmarket.io and could make us a good amount of BTC. If the devs don't have a way to trade on that exchange maybe have it set to not auto-trade those coins and people can do it themselves? I feel we are missing out on something good here.

I wouldn't use that exchange even if I was paid to. It looks very unstable.

why would anyone want to rent a rig for more than it can earn on an average day? Doesn't make sense.

i've seen people try to prop up shitcoins by temporarily increasing hash rate. myopic, short term, but people still do it.

leased rigs could be used to bring additional hashrate to initial mining phase of a new shitcoin. some people make a good living getting 100M cagecoins at low difficulties.

i can see a scenario where someone is investing long term to look at the daily returns as less important as what the coins will be worth in a month, year, or decade from now.

lastly, someone who does setup a rig themselves also has an up-front cost and a break-even point to start turning a profit. someone can start mining immediately without needing to know how to set shit up. from some of the posts here and in the mining forum there are no shortage of newbies in that position.

Renting gives a more stable income stream that is not subject to altcoin fluctuations, exchanges fees, pool hacks, etc...

Um...no it doesn't. Renting hashing power gives you the hashing power to use in the exact same way as a miner. I think the only reason to rent is if you want to accumulate some coins without buying mining hardware and without buying the coins outright, but even that doesn't make much sense as you have to have coins to rent the systems in the first place. Basically, renting is a gamble that apparently a few people are willing to take because they think they can earn more than the cost of the rent. "Tomorrow, I predict that mining CoinX is going to pay me 0.025 BTC per MH, so I'll pay 0.02 BTC per MH and come out ahead!" Unless I misunderstood something?

I am speaking from the perspective of the person renting out the equipment to others: He or she knows the what the compensation will be. As for the person paying to rent the mining hardware, your statement is correct: They are hoping to make more mining altcoins than the amount they pay in rent.

Never understood that thing of renting hashing power, if it is so profitable, why renting it?, when you can mine yourself, i don't get it.

there are a lot of companies selling shares, specially of BTC ASICS, why would you do that?, isn't that much better buy the rig and mine yourself from a client point of view, and from a company point of view, isn't much more profitable to mine instead of sell shares?.

Even more, why would anyone want to rent a rig for more than it can earn on an average day? Doesn't make sense.

Gee, I think I'll pay 0.020BTC/day/MH so I can earn 0.018BTC/day/MH (what I earned on Middlecoin last night) . . . UMMM . . . wait, whuuuut? Shocked

I have decided that the 'all eggs in one basket' approach doesnt work - in my opinion there are two good multicoin pools - i have two GPU rigs - one on each (roughly 1.2-1.4M/hash). If a good third pool came into existance, i would split my rigs in 3 Wink

it might not be the most profitable route but it does create the situation where in a worst case scenario i can cover my running costs and if one pool makes a substantial profit and the other doesnt i still benefit - rather than thinking 'i wish i'd been mining there!'

Totally agree, that's what I am doing, I split in three, 2 multipools and 1 litecoin mining.
