I made more BTC in the last two blocks than an entire month of mining at Antpoo (back when I did not know any better!) or three weeks at Slush - even though the hash rate was almost identical.
Even though my 26TH is peanuts to most folks, it is still my primary way of building by BTC balance and Kano's pool is the best way I have tried - wish I had switched years ago!
Some like you get it but there are always skeptics out there who will only test for 1 day or 1 week, get angry, and then go back to wherever they came from
This is why I ask questions that might seem stupid. I'm new to this pool and I'd like to make properly informed decisions.
You are doing the right thing...no question is stupid.
