Topic: Any trust worthy dogecoin pool? (Read 10220 times)
Till now the best pool I mine with is coinking. http://coinking.io/register.php?r=237
I was on a pool, (name withheld to not cause a flame war) and was paying a 2.5% fee. Researched solo mining, and that was not a good fit. Ran across a P2P Pool idea, where it is decentralized. You probably already know about it but I am new to this. I followed the instructions here and created a "node": http://doges.org/index.php/topic,5586.0.html and it went smoothly except for a typo on my part which drove me crazy looking over my work. Running it under VirtualBox so I can sandbox it and test, and revert to snapshots when I mess it up!
Can't testify to Hash Rates or if it is stable, but I am mining with just myself, pointing to my payout address and getting shares in my wallet. Kind of cool to see it as "Mined" instead of "Received with" from a pool. Not sure how the performance will compare to a typical pool.
Apparently you can allow people to join your node. I haven't tested it to see if my internet connection can take it, but anyone is welcome to try. If it gets crazy I can turn it off or get a bigger pipe. What I like about it is you can connect to someone that is close to you or create your own node (I am in Fort Worth, TX). Set it up this morning, so I will see. Running for about 3.5 hours and have 322 shares on a 3.64 Mh/s rig. Anxious to see what it does in a week.
If you want to test it, I have it set for .5% (didn't think anything higher was fair, and may lower it. I just wanted to see if it paid the fees for my test.)
The instructions create a "Front end for the node" http://doge.joinaparty.com:22550 so you can see how it looks. Kinda of different from a standard pool. Probably should create a landing page for http://doge.joinaparty.com with instructions to everything.
Pulled these connect strings that you can try and connect I use sgminer:
cgminer --scrypt -o doge.joinaparty.com:22550 -u YOURDOGEPAYOUTADDRESS -p anypassword
bfgminer --scrypt -o doge.joinaparty.com:22550 -u YOURDOGEPAYOUTADDRESS -p anypasssword
Don't count on this being a forever node to connect to, I am just testing it and if two people connect it might even bring it to it's knees!
Do me a favor and connect so I can test and then go create your own node! If it works out, who knows.
Thanks!

On one thing I have to agree, I also found out that Pools must be skimming off the top.
The other day I compared blocks found from my miners (and coins generated) vs actual payout from the pool. I got more than 40% less payout than if I would have been mining solo. I am talking about a different coin (earthcoin), but the problem seems to be universal. Since then I switched to solo mining, and I got actually at least 3 times more coins than my hashrate's estimate.
You should also check out if you find blocks regularly on the pool you are mining. Maybe it is worth a try (with a decent hashrate) to try solo mining. (By the way I have no idea about Dogecoin and solo mining, but with earthcoins it worked.)

i made my own p2pool at last, then i can cheat myself of the doges 
i doubt my router will manage very much traffic but you are welcome to try it

netcodepool has been awesome!
Testing out dogepool so hopefully they continue to be legit otherwise I'll be totally done with doge pools.
I ran a card overnight at dogepool and it only made 300 coins at almost 700 kh. So I stopped the experiment, granted it probably needs more time. Coinwarz thinks I should be getting over 13K a day with 1400 kh and I'm getting more than that at hashfaster, today at least, with one of the two cards mining at another pool for several hours. So for now I'm a happy camper. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

do you understand what "long term average" means?
In a process with 1 datapoint per minute, 24 hours (1440 samples) is more than sufficient to be considered a long term average.
.....
well keep palming your face instead of that other thing your mama told you to quit doing!! I understand averages, you don't! If the average is 500k, of course you won't hit 500 k every block, duh!! The longterm average should still work out to coinwarz estimates longterm, duh! so no I don't buy your snakeoil either, use it for lubing your facepalmer!
Take a look here and youll see some analyzis of some pools that might give an indication of which pool to use and which scams:

I set one 280x card to your pool, ocminer. To see how it compares with hashfaster, which has been ok so far.
It depends, the orphaned block were pretty small ones, so overall it is not THAT bad.
If you compare the luck and size of the last found blocks, it evens that out without problems:

I am so tired of doge scam pools, new ones pop up everyday and they last for a month or two then they shut down and run away with all the funds.
lol, stop using the open source MPOS pools Thats because People are switching so much, Dogepool.net was one of the First and it lasts
Their orphan rate for the last week is 18%, which is insanely bad. Losing 18% of your work because the pool is poorly connected to the network is just as much a waste as losing it to fraud.pool.dogechain.info's is 1.6% in comparison, over an order of magnitude better.
my orphan rate is 12% or so, but I still get 120% more than I should

Hi guys
I have mined at two sites since yesterday using 7970 GPU.
This one: http://doge.netcodepool.org/, i mined there for about 6 hrs and only got 7 coins.
Then i joined https://www.suchcoins.com/ and left my pc on all night. I had a quick check late at night and saw few coins confirmed.
But can't access this website anymore, because its down.
Can anyone from experience plz let me know how many coins should i expect using 7970gpu per hr?
and any good pools which i should join? Thanks

On any pool block % is luck based. During the period you mined we found a lower coin block by luck, next one had thrice as big coin reward.
This is common to all pools, it gets averaged out once you mine for all 24 hours.
Any issues on netcodepool, email: [email protected]
Btw netcodepool is in mining business since more than a year, much older than any other pools you will find here. We have payed out over 70,550+ LTC over this period to users. 1.1 Billion DOGE have been payed out to miners, that accounts for more than 1% of the total coins.
Also, note that netcodepool is an admin on Dogecoin's official sub-reddit, /r/dogecoin so even the creators trust us
You could have just dropped a mail or approached any online admin on chat.During the major hack before last week due to which there was one week downtime, our hot wallet was stolen, but we made sure all users got their coins and paid them from our pocket (never made an issue of that) - thus maintaining the record of never loosing a single user's coin.
Always calculate the amount of DOGE you will earn in 24 hours based on your hashes on a website like coinwarz, then based on that join a pool which gets you the closest amount to that.
Make sure you spend atleast 24 hours on a single pool to get correct statistics.
Always research about the pool's history before you mine there for longer duration time, because it involves your "real money".
Doge pools are scams in regards to how much they pay out, I mine for 72+ without stopping and am only at 60% of what coinwarz and the pool estimates, percentage is not based on luck after enough time has gone by. Bottom line, doge pools are taking some of your coins and pocketing them. SCAM
Read my post above you bro. No scam there
So your pool will payout close to what Coinwarz estimayes over a 24 hour period? Your pool won't be 50% or 60% of that???
You did not understand what me and some others wrote before.
You're probably better off mining something else
I am perfectly capable of deciding what I mine, thank you very much. I along with many others believe that dogepools are scamming unsuspecting and suspecting people. Sorry, I don't buy your snakeoil, I know when I am being scammed.
You have no idea how much of a facepalm I had when you failed to realize that coinwarz uses averages of the random block size. It uses the possible values of a block (in the case of dogecoin, that's 0~1,000,000) and picks the middle point (which is 500,000). It is statistically against you earning EVERY SINGLE BLOCK at 500,000. If you don't believe me, look at this:
Now, assuming that a pool is scamming you is completely wrong, because if you look at this:
you'll see that block 72950 only gave out 146,609.71 Ð, and it took more shares to find it compared to the estimate (8,614,905 actual shares, compared to 4,173,662 estimated shares). That means that this specific block took a bit over double the time to mine, and gave out 29~30% of what the estimate of 500,000 was.
Now look at block 72937, see how it gave out 895,594.00 Ð instead of 500,000 Ð that coinwarz predicted? and also look at the shares: it was estimated to need 4,173,662 shares, but only required 199,665 shares; that's ~2090% LESS shares than predicted to be needed, and the payout was ~180% HIGHER than coinwarz estimated; so that block was ~3700% MORE valuable than both the pool and coinwarz predicted.
If this info doesn't prove that the pools aren't scamming you; you should either: solo mine, or find a non-random block value coin. ocminer wasn't selling you snake oil, he was trying to explain that you were seeing this wrongly: the coin has inherently random payouts. it's impossible to predict how much you'll earn in a small period of time.
well keep palming your face instead of that other thing your mama told you to quit doing!! I understand averages, you don't! If the average is 500k, of course you won't hit 500 k every block, duh!! The longterm average should still work out to coinwarz estimates longterm, duh! so no I don't buy your snakeoil either, use it for lubing your facepalmer!
Congratulations to be the first on my ignore list
Well with all your fancy Powerpoint presentation there, can you show me anyone who got paid way over their 24 hour estimate, see luck, and estimates, and averages go both ways, if everyone is always being underpaid, then that proves scamming. So who has gotten significantly more that coinwarz, coinchoose or pool estimate?

That was a quick failure, Prolificmining gave up on PPS already. I got a couple thousand doge out of them before they failed, and I thank them for that, though it was clear that they weren't very good at running a pool. Payments didn't work right and they can't even keep the website up. They complained about people doing payouts of a couple coin, but the transaction fee is set to 0. No wonder. They're now 0.0026% of the Doge hashrate, completely inconsequential. Also now refusing to do a manual payout of my remaining balance, which is the true mark of a scammer.
I've gone back to pool.dogechain.info; I figure being part of the Doge project they're at least a little bit less likely to be a scam. Though the payout for the last 24 hours has still been under 50% of nominal, which is statistically unlikely to just be unlucky.

I have yet to find a doge pool which doesn't skim off the top at least 30-40%. Most people are to ignorant to realize this and are such believers in the coin that they don't care.
