someone make a multimultipool.
connects to the most profitable multipool Grin

I was actually thinking of making this.

My understanding is that this would undermine the components of PPLNS that make it successful. Basically, the longer you stay with one PPLNS the more you get and it can take over 24 hours for the full profitability to be reached. For such a thing to work it would have to be able to evaluate and project profitability encompassing time spans over 24 hours. This would be really something. For now, it's just as well to use something like pool picker. Just watch it day by day and see how various pools are doing and then make your decision or change up based on weekly trends.

Something to consider is what the multipool is in fact mining. The pools that are mining away on the more profitable coins, especially your new hot altcoin de jour, seem to have a higher output compared to a pool mining more mature coins. That could possibly explain why hashcows has been more profitable these past few days, all according to poolpicker.eu
I can not say anything for the longer period as I just switched to this kind of pool mining one week ago.

You guys should really try www.altcoinspool.com >> new/young pool with a great owner!
Im currently mining at it, but we need a bit more mhs so its more prof for all of us

Profitability (BTC/1Mhash/24hr):

Feb-28: 0.00844617
Feb-26: 0.00423872

The results are in! The winner is CleverMining!

CleverMining	0,0429
WafflePool	0,0423
Hashcows	0,0327
Hashbros	0,0306
CoinSolver	0,0262
MiddleCoin Amsterdam	0,0223

It was a close call between CleverMining and WafflePool, they gave me practically the same results. However, CleverMining has a high reject rate (10-30%), with closer servers coming in the future I expect higher payouts. MiddleCoin admitted they had problems with stats and founding blocks, so their result may not be representative over the long term, as said earlier they gave me the highest payout before. Unfortunately, Hashbros announced they will shut down soon - so they don't really count anymore. And for some reason I can't find my results for the MiddleCoin EU mining.

tl;dr: Mine on CleverMining or Wafflepool

Thanks for doing this! I want to add for CoinSolver that they are still in beta and they have new stuff coming soon

Average for 14 days:

Quote

Days Middlecoin CleverMining WafflePool HashCows
14 0.0084644 0.01098014 0.0101796 0.00902857

So in order from highest to lowest:

1. 0.01098014 = CleverMining
2. 0.01017960 = WafflePool
3. 0.00902857 = HashCows
4. 0.00846440 = Middlecoin

Well, then, set up your pools in that order, failover mode, and you have 3 backups. Every week or so, look at the averages, and re-arrange your pools.

If you have 4 separate rigs, set up each one with a different primary pool, and the others as backup.

Put all of your rigs on either a timer or a script that detects problems, then reboots each rig.

Cash out some coins, pay the electric bill for the month, take a vacation and drink a pina-colada on some tropical beach.

Those of us who only have 1 or 2 rigs, well, what can I say? hehehehe.

Hey guys, little question: Those earning shown on poolpicker.eu are with or without the fee ?

Because that's different for all pools middle is 3, cleavermining 2 and wafflepool 1... Could be interesting to know that too ! If someone can answer Roll Eyes

If they are using the paid out numbers from all three pools, then that would be after all fees are taken out. Middle, Clever and Waffle all post paid numbers after fees are extracted.

The issue here is that waffle has almost 3 times the number of hash power and mines completely different coins because of such power. Where as Clever mines smaller coins. I watched clever grow from .7 to 5.1gh and it's profits were down consistently as it grew.
Point is, you have to compare pools at equal hash rates. When Clever was below 1gh it was doing better but as it grew it's payouts declined.

they are on http://poolpicker.eu

That site is not related to the OP.

Might as well be; the whole point of the OP was to get what the website is giving you live.

There is no longer any point in waiting for the OP results.

Except there are only 4 multipool sites and none of then do Scrypt-N or any of the other coins.
We need expanded results Cheesy

Has anyone split equal miners across all the pools for, say 48hrs?
