e.g. people who mine on antpoo vs kano.is get less BTC. Simple.
They just have no idea what they are doing...
As far as "unrelated", I call "balderdash"!
There are those of us (or I may just be the only one, who knows) that use "solo pools" because of reliability issues vs. a full solo setup. When you take that into account and look at how not serious folks here seem to take it, other solo pools become a more viable option. When the "fans" of a pool treat that pool like a wanton whore, you can't really get all butthurt because newcomers feel the same way!
Sorry you mine at antpool,f2pool or any pool in China .
But part of your comparison is correct. In that antpool is one end of the variance spectrum and solopool is the other end of the spectrum.
It is sad that you do not see why antpool is a fail compared to Kano.is. But I do agree that your thread was about very high variance and vs very low variance,thus Kano.is pool did not apply since it is not at the far end of the spectrom of variance.
Good luck on antpool after the 1/2 ing. I will be with Kano.is and sometimes take a pop here.
