Could you add CoinFu to the list to try out?  It's showing higher profitability than everything else right now on PoolPicker and I'm trying it out myself today... but would like to see your comparisons for this pool.

I'll be removing HVC over the next few days, and will probably replace SimpleDoge with another DOGE pool - too much variance for a meaningful comparison and their hashrate is decreasing.

Suchmoon: what's the story with the big rise on Scryptguild recently... did they add specific new coins?

I don't know. I wouldn't read too much into the daily spikes. It could be something as simple as them exchanging coins at a better rate than originally estimated. Yesterday's spike at Middlecoin seemed to be similar. But if it continues for a few days then they might be onto something.

It's CleverMining's turn now for a DDOS. Other than that, it seems to be settling into a new "normal" range of 0.004-0.005 BTCMHSD (BitcoinMegahashDay? Bimd? BMD?) for most pools.

No major changes for today. I think GHash.IO had some downtime yesterday, my rig was on backup for a while. This would explain the dip in earnings.

several pools like middlecoin offer the ability to see the coins actually deposited in other people's addresses.


This seems the most accurate way to determine the actual payout of those operations over time.

Thanks for clearing that up. I think I'll point some hashrate next week at your pool to see how you are doing and to help you grow,

Thks!

although I probably won't put it on the the chart just yet. Let's get at least into triple digits first and see how you cope with scaling Smiley.

I understand your concerns and agree with you. It'd probably be better to compare us to the other multipools when we have a higher hashrate.

I appreciate you taking your time, and putting your money, in potential earnings, and set up on the line to provide such an invaluable service to a community and I believe everyone in this forums thank you for it too!

While adding Vertcoin is a relatively fair proxy for Scrypt-N, I believe you should rather bench scrypt switching pools against a proper Scrypt-N switching pool. So far I've only come accross trademybit.com (there might be others).

I'll take another look at trademybit. Last time I looked they were using CryptoRush, which was a huge red flag. It seems that they didn't lose much there and will be covering it out of pocket so maybe it's not as bad. I would like to see some stats though, doesn't seem to be much available on the site.

No significant changes for today. A quick note about Heavycoin (HVC): its performance is affected by the rapid development of miner software (cgminer for AMD and ccminer for NVIDIA) and volatile exchange rates. For example cgminer hashrates have nearly tripled since the first version has been introduced just a couple of weeks ago, and there have been new releases every few days. Exchange rates often go up or down 20-30% within a day. In other words, this is not "set and forget" type of mining, this needs some babysitting. With some work however it can be more profitable than the chart shows - I'm not dedicating a lot of time for GPU tuning, trading on exchanges, following latest developments, etc.

Ok, it's much clearer now)
Nice statistics work, may be useful for people to choose a multipool not only based by the one day data (esprecially in time of fast changing scrypt world).
And in time of scrypt-asics invasion I would suggest, additionally to scrypt-N (Vertcoin), to consider addition of some keccak (sha-3) coin, such as Maxcoin.
P.S. Oops I need to do some research on Heavycoin)

Hello Suchmoon.
In your spreadsheet (performance data) I see two tables with data - upper and lower of the "average line", these data are quite different for one specific date, can you clarify this a little bit? May be this is the data from different rigs or something? Thanks.

The lower table is "moving average". Each number represents the average for the last five days. E.g. on 2014-03-26 it takes the average of numbers from the upper table for March 22, 23, 24, 25, 26; on the 27th it's the average of March 23, 24, 25, 26, 27; and so on. This is used to create the chart called "5-day moving average", which due to this averaging is a bit less spaghetti-like than the main chart. I hope this explains it. I was thinking to add some explanations to the spreadsheet itself, I can see how it might be confusing.

If you see a specific discrepancy let me know which pool/date and I'll check it. It is quite possible I messed something up, happens to the best of us  Grin

Thanks for looking.

There is a bit of a problem with the size of the pool, isn't it? Smiley

Thats true, we launched about two months ago but haven't been too active in the forums until just a couple of days ago when we have finished a new version of our backend and website.

The other thing that worries me is the issue with the exchange posted on the stats page. Which of the recently deceased exchanges were you using and how is that going to affect future profits?

Yea, that was disheartening. We were on Vircurex when they prevented withdrawals for a couple of days and placed a notice that they were going to freeze the wallets. That's when we had to make a once-off decision to trade our available BTC to DOGE, transfer them to another exchange, trade DOGE to BTC and excute the payout rather than withholding our miners earnings any longer.

Our approximate BTC/MH/day for that period, based on one of our miners, http://stats.altcoinplex.com/users/bitcoin/1MjNG9pGippwTSHraPnB1MBKwjr4q2ykiY.html, with an avg hashrate of 1.3 MH/day from 20-24 March is ~0.00604216 BTC/MH/Day for that interval.

Hey Suchmoon,

 Why the huge dip in Vert yesterday? Was it market or hardware or pool? Just wondering. Trying to get a decent vert miner setup but I want to mine GPUcoin I think. I just want to know I can fall back to Vert if that doesn't work out the way I have planned.

The way I understand it (and I'm in no way a Vertcoin expert so take this with a truckload of salt) this was due to a sudden difficulty spike. Vertcoin adjusts difficulty with every block, i.e. reacts quickly to hashrate increase. Over the last few days network hashrate roughly doubled - perhaps due to low profitability of other coins and favorable VTC/BTC exchange rate. This caused difficulty to rise from ~150 to ~300 or so. This obviously reduced earnings per MH/s. Now the exchange rate is down from its peak, hashrate is decreasing, and difficulty is also moving down towards 200. I wouldn't worry too much about the daily spikes. I prefer the 5-day moving average chart, I think it provides a more balanced view, although some context is good to know - e.g. Wafflepool issues with DDOS will be holding its average down for a few days.
