Regardless, I still make more money here than anywhere else, period. And I have tried the majority of big pools out there; both individual coin mining as well as multi pools. Time is money and zpool eliminates significant expenditures of time to maximize results.
I didn't want to believe that it was what others had said, but looking at the price I've received for the coins on Zpool vs the price on Cryptopia it correlates to a solid 20-25% less than what you would get on market.
I calculated payout of the coins mined vs how much Zpool pays for those coins and market price of me selling and see for yourself in the screenshot. Across the board there is a 20-30% disprepency lower for every coin I mined. I was going to give Crackfoo a chance to response in private, but given the value of SIGT right now I think people should know how much you are losing.
Tell me you told me so, because you're right and I was naive and blind. Zpool is stealing a lot of value from your mining even if it is paying out better than Nicehash miner. The values below do fluctuate as the price of the coin rises and falls, but there is always at least 20% gap between what should be paid and what is going to be paid.
Read back through this thread and read my post history. You will see me saying the exact same things you just said. There is a reason I'm saying what I'm saying now.
I believed it was just exchange fudge, but I guarantee you that I saw it with my own eyes. I've been a HUGE proponent of this pool...I am no longer. Believe me or don't, figure out the math yourself and you'll see what I see. I started this math originally to do away with the nay-sayers and finally have the hard facts to backup my beliefs. I ended up finding the truth instead. My post history speaks for itself.
If you are fine with paying 20-30% fees then by all means keep mining here. I'm not willing to do that anymore when Exchange accounts are free. Especially on a coin like SIGT when we're talking a loss of BTC not just mBTC.
