I would warn anyone to be wary of citb0in due to a bunch of rather worrying issues:
He has posted a list of solo pools, but when I pointed out that he should include this in his valuation of solo.ckpool he has repeatedly deleted it and ignored it.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54405218 It would seem he thinks that people shouldn't know that 'that' solo pool lost a block due to OP negligence, admitted clearly by the OP in that post, and wouldn't payout his part of the full 12.5 BTC block reward (less fee) but only 0.057 BTC to the miner.
You're absolutely wrong. I had overlooked this information but have now discovered it here. Since I see this as valuable information that factually fits in with my thread about the various solo mining pools, I have also included and noted it in the section accordingly. After all, the purpose of the thread is to provide an overview with as much information as possible, so that ultimately each individual can make up their own mind about it. Thanks for the link.
Firstly, he seems to like the idea that I'm gonna die just after someone gets another block, so they wont get their payout
and if he then e.g. dies in an accident the coins will never find their way to me because they are lying around on his wallet.
Stop deliberately distorting the context and content. You should
learn to quote properly by quoting the entire paragraph. And especially not to make false statements: I
never mentioned that I like the idea that you're gonna die. Such statements are slander. I strongly urge you to refrain from such false claims and lies in the future
!The paragraph you referred to is:
I would not like to hit a block and have to watch in the blockchain how the reward for my found block would first be paid to Kano (because his payout address is stored and the reward goes to him first) and if he then e.g. dies in an accident the coins will never find their way to me because they are lying around on his wallet. With ViaBTC you wouldn't have to worry about that, even though you can't mine directly with your own address. Because ViaBTC is not a one-man pool and if someone goes down, the store will most likely continue to run because it is a completely different league and dozens of people work there. So I don't want to risk Kano getting my reward and not being able to pay out to me if something would happen to him e.g. him as a person or possibly his pool would be compromised or anything else similarly bad.
He makes odd incorrect comments like this about the solo run:
Strangely enough, Kano also regularly resets his database (KDB) after a run, which resets certain statistical data on his website, Kano says he does this for some maintenance purpose.
No idea where that comment even comes from. Maybe he doesn't understand that a single user can reset their 'Best' (but not their 'Best Ever')
It's simply my impression from watching your Discord server for months. You reset your KDB often, anyone can see that on your Discord server if they read the history in your channels, go ahead and scroll back in history. I mentioned it because it is noticeable. It was about the KDB which is resetted by the pool operator and not about user-side options, which you try to portray that way. A rogue who thinks evil...
It's even more worrying that he doesn't even understand rented hash rate as per this comment:
Strikingly also that the hash rate rented with NH for these Runs fails without exception with each run in the middle or decreases and thereupon Kano constantly explains or defends the circumstance.
since they do always complete - as the share total shows in the end - you don't rent miners on fuckhash, you rent 'hashrate'.
Clearly he doesn't understand how fuckhash works, but that's probably due to the fact that he's stated in the post that wont use them.
Such moronic statements do not in any way corroborate any arguments you are frantically trying to build.
Also making random claims about the pool without giving any proof at all (since it's fake)
Someone had even commented and rumored that Hashrate sent to a pool would be diverted for own purposes, but that would mean a shortcoming for all pools, but I had heard it in connection with this pool which is why I mention it here.
I googled for it and found a posting somewhere on reddit iirc. It deserved my attention, so I mentioned it.
Personally, it seems to me that Kano and wiggie45 work hand-in-hand and some internal deals exist for these solo fun runs.
We're gonna make a fortune with this internal deal on these $100 solo fun runs
... that certainly gotta be why I've made it abundantly clear that I wont support bigger runs ... right?
Also noticeable is the cooperation with the users "sidehack" (=GekkoScience Compac F developer) and "419mining" (=distribution of the Compac F), there stinks heavily of surreptitious advertising what you read so.
You mean all that time I spend (except with 1 or 2 miners from sidehack absolutely needed to do the software development) I should be doing some backdoor deals with these guys?
At no point did I claim that you were deliberately ripping people off together with them. I mentioned that it is very noticeable how you work hand-in-hand together. There was never any talk of backdoor deals, which you have now mentioned here for the first time, interesting?
Then these sort of comments which are like - wow - someone is trying hard to think up fake ways to dis the pool ...
Someone who reads my posts will undoubtedly notice that I research thoroughly and call a spade a spade. I write honestly and if there is something good to report, then I report it. And if there is something bad to report, I report it too. Otherwise, I would not have talked openly and honestly positive about few points about you (tech skills, not your soft skills cause you haven't) on my review.
By the way, the thread with my experience report was not created overnight, as you mistakenly try to create the impression here. I would certainly not make the effort in such a short time to conjure up this concentrated information to specifically dis your pool as you write it here, you are not worth it. The thread has existed for several months and is known to the community.
These are all in his supposed evaluation of the pool ...
The
thread you mentioned reflects my personal opinion, which you understandably do not like. I have justified my opinions on all points, they do not have to coincide with your feelings. You can delete as many posts here in your own thread as you like, you can only impress yourself, as a narcissist you need that after all. Someone who justifies himself non-stop or tries to justify himself spasmodically, suffers from low self-esteem.
Good luck and all the best.
