Great thing you did. It is a difference of 11% a lot more than 2% that is shown on their website and we should be careful if this is happening again to use only the pools that are not stealing from us.
I was wondering if we can help each other by publishing pool performance using identical rigs that are mining zpool and ahashpool for the best algo that is selected by AM from each pool.
There was a lot of posts on this forum about zpool stealing 30% from the income, also other posts accusing ahaspool stealing so, real income tests is a must, until Patrike will implement my proposed solution to fix this issue.
So, if we have 2 identical rigs with the daily income in btc earned from each pool, we have a status and we can advise users to disable a specific pool and we can also advise Patike to add more trusted pools in the list.
I brought to you the problems that we all had with HashRefinery last weeks and as a result people verified and removed HashRefinery from AM settings and HashRefinery went from 13k gpu miners/day to just 300 gpu miners/day.
Right now HashRefinery is reporting $90/rig/day on Phi for the best 24 hours average performance and all the other pools have the best performance around $25/rig/day and this happens for weeks and I do think we should not tolerate misleading reports from pools like HashRefinery is misleading all of us. Because of my warnings miners removed HarsRefinery from AM settings and helped them loosing money.
I do advise Patrike to remove pools that are not acting correctly and sending misleading reports on a regular basis and replace them with pols that are fair with statistics and are well maintained.
Keep doing that and soon there won't be any pools left to mine on...
We are talking about huge amounts of money that they are stealing from us every day and that you are not aware of.
You need to have 2 identical rigs from 2 pools that you consider the best let's say
ahashpool vs zpool or
ahashpool vs MiningPoolHub and the rest of your 100 rigs mining on the best results from previous days.
After you have the amount that was stolen from you, you can disable the ones that are not performing correctly and also inform the community about your findings to get rid of the pools that are owned by unfair people that do not care about the others, and the result can be seen on HashRefinery that is misleading statistics every day and as a result they went form 10k gpu miners online 200 gpu miners online, all because it is very easy to see when you are being ripped by HashRefinery and you loose money. If you remember HashRefinery had the same issues last year also, when Patrike removed HashRefinery from AM, and HashRefinery did not learn the lesson. Important is the amount of btc you are receiving after 24 hours and not the advertised fee that is not relevant.
Also we have to advise Patrike to add some new and better pools in default settings from AM because of so many users, we have to spread the miners to avoid "connection refused errors" that now appear more often than ever.
We need pools with fair owners that are also monitoring the pool 24/24 and is taking care of avoiding mining orphaned blocks or reporting misleading statistics to AM, that is the worst, because on zpool, for example , when reposrts are the highest from the list, I noticed that income is zero and that can be seen on statistics from pool payments per Khash/mHash.
Have a nice day.
