What exactly do you mean by miner? This is not a POW coin AFAIK.
Did you understand anything what elastic does?
XEL, to explain it to someone who seems to be not able to read, is in other words an Appcoin for Elastic.
You buy computation power to solve cryptogrphical problems and the so called miner gives the computation power to the decentralised network, it solves tiny parts of the "problem" on the mining rig who's running our "miner" - for this work he would be paid proportional to his sum of work he done. The coins to pay the miners comes form the researchers that give work to the Network and want a soloution.
I know what the purpose of XEL is and that's why the term "miner" seemed out of place. And what you describe I would not call a miner as it can confuse people. A worker app or something would be more appropriate
You could have clarified it as you did without being a jackass.
I lost a few btc there. Since that I'm really careful by trusting such centralised structures. Because it is the infrasturture that gives an appcoin a value - without it, it would fail)
