Following my last post (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.29724361) where i tried to check multiple pools and when and how they are paying i continue with this week testing:
Some observations:
Some observations:
- all values are approximate; day1 was in fact half a day, that's the day i voted, so it's not so important;
- this is somehow irrelevant because daily pay is correlated with how many blocks that particular pool forged in that day; this is only for testing of pools. plus if a pool has too many votes the payout will be smaller, so try to spread your votes as much as possible;
- even though all animals pool (from alligator to lobster) (https://semux.info/pool) is the most professional with everyday pay and a great website, they have a very big fee so i will remove all my 650 votes;
- last week i tested generals (general01-04) pools they never paid me until this week in the middle of the week (0.36 once, for 100 votes last week). i found their website (http://semuxpool.info/) and minimum payout is 0.5. i won't vote for them anyway, too big fee 18%;
- i wil remove all my votes from pools with more than 8% fee. i think that is too much and i won't help them. i'm still waiting for pools with 1-2%, that's a standard in cryptocurrencies pools. Animals fee of 25 is way too high;
- you can check user levyashin post (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.29319963) he is keeping a great list of pools and fees. Or go to official discord (https://discordapp.com/invite/qQVckKZ) and there's a channel #pools if any questions;
- semux has 2 very good block explorers https://semux.info/explorer and http://semuxchain.info/;
- if anyone can make me a good offer for 1300 votes PM me
(VOTES only, i'm not selling).
Yeah, I don't think there's enough data points yet to come to any firm conclusions but I like the idea and effort
