Just to follow up on my post, look here at the average block size for the last 30days by pool. I think this gives you a good idea of the ethical pools vs selfish ones.

Mining pool   Average size
Solo CKPool       997,415
Kano CKPool      913,563
BitMinter            776,757
BitFury              764,694
myBTCcoin Pool  749,260
NiceHash Solo    749,069
KnCMiner           698,215
21 Inc.              660,633
BW.COM            653,842
BitClub Network 652,797
AntPool             643,672
F2Pool              577,282
BTCChina Pool   576,451
ghash.io           559,856
Unknown          535,832
slush                 527,274
Eligius             431,685

Could you continue discussing this observation?  I know for certain that some of these pools with lower average block sizes don't participate in SPV mining.  I recognize that a lower average block size != SPV mining, but I would like to understand this better.

Cheers.

Bitcoin Talks Bullshit Walks
January 21, 2016, 09:29:45 AM
This is because the likes of Antpool mine empty blocks. If a pool do not include transactions in their blocks, then transactions get backlogged until someone does include them. This is what hurts the network and could hold people back from using BTC as payment for goods. Imagine waiting in Starbucks for 14 hours until your payment is confirmed Undecided . If anyone cares about their investment and the Bitcoin network they should mine on an ethical pool.

LMAO.. i find that rather ironic dont you think.. They cant even get out their own payments due to themselves and their buddies mining empty blocks.. Bitcoin has so many ways of dealing with the bad actors it isnt even funny!

Make Bitcoin glow with ENIAC
January 21, 2016, 06:33:55 AM

I saw that the backlog of payouts finally was cleared from my antpool page and I found them in my wallet as separate transactions from the dates they were supposed to be sent. It looks like the transactions were just stuck in the transaction backlog on the Bitcoin network.

considering that antpool is one of the biggest mining pool's into the bitcoin ecosystem they should send a proper answer why the payouts was't sent :-/

If it's customer support you're after you'd better change pools......

That's exactly what I did yesterday... Kano here I go! Cheesy

No payment today. I have troubles connecting Antpool web-site. Workers are still connected to antpool.

I do not receive payment in January 20 , I have already announced to antpool but still unanswered .
This is a faulty link remittance

Hey guys, did you get paid today?
Haven't received any payment, but the amount still in my account balance  Huh
Shouldn't we be paid daily?
Daily Payouts -> http://prntscr.com/9sgwk0


No payment seen either, gonna switch pools till it does.  Gotta cut your exposure.

I already switched to Kano.is  Grin

I did not have problems with Antpool, but I swithched to support smaller pools, and also avoid mining empty blocks and SPV.

I'm currently using Stratum protocol and PPLNS. I noticed that with P2P protocol Antpool would also pay Tx Fee to miners.

So would I earn more in P2P?



You would earn more and learn more using a smaller pool, several which are much more profitable than anthole...i mean antpool. I mined on Antpool for a long time, some days had great payouts, other days had terrible payouts and when averaged out I could have made a lot more elsewhere. Antpool also SPV mines which is dangerous plus they have grown way too large along with a few other Chinese pools. Protect your investment and mine elsewhere.
