the miner works with dashminer.com multipool only

Very interesting, watching.
Before anyone asks - no, that's not me

I know that - not me either. You can tell cause it's on GitHub, and looks like code from SG was used.

not me either, otherwise I would have played the sock puppet Grin

So much negativity, but well... What can you expect from bitcointalk.

Not negativity. Curiosity. I want to see how this scheme will work or how will it fail.

I am trying out this pool just for the fun of it....
It looks like they are actually paying about .2 dash/day on a 290x.
What happened to .4 dash/day?

edit:
Hmm now my diff is set at 8 and I haven't found a share in almost 2 hours...

Thanks for trying out the pool.

0.2 DASH/day is what is shown in miner software. Current promotion is "double payout". So you will get 0.4 DASH/day.

> Hmm now my diff is set at 8 and I haven't found a share in almost 2 hours...
dashminer.com sets share difficulty pretty low (around 0.1) with a target of 3 seconds for low reject ratio. There's no way to get to diff 8.

Looks on par for me. Just received 0.00324 BTC after 24hrs on Dashminer. That's on an 280X generating at 81%.

However, currently WITHOUT Wolf's bin, I'm generating roughly 0.0017 BTC a day at best on Westhash. Now, after promotion and payout goes back down to 0.2 DASH/day (0.002 estimated BTC equivalent) my payout from Dashminer will be estimated at 0.00162 BTC a day. If your miner is better than Wolf's but I'm generating the roughly the same payout elsewhere WITHOUT Wolf's bin, I guessing you are profiting the extra hash since I'm not necessarily benefiting from it. I do find the "we have a fast mining kernel" and the claim that it is better than Wolf's (on the Dashminer thread) marketing strategy interesting because if the statement is true, it actually has no relevance to the miner because, in reality, they don't benefit from it...you do. I'm not saying that's necessarily bad, it is capitalism after all...I just find the psychology behind it interesting.

Yes, your logic is correct for the most part.

However, I'd like to mention these items:

* the 0.2 DASH per 100% (which is currently 0.4 DASH with the promotion) base rate can be changed at any time. It can become higher or lower. This is all business. For example, about 10 hours ago X11 mining was more profitable than it is now.

* I don't know when the promotion will end, haven't decided yet. Currently the pool has about 120mhs of X11 and it is pretty hard to guesstimate the baserate from such low hash. The income is very jumpy (time between blocks is large). I feel that with 0.4 DASH per 100% I can get miners and that's what I am doing (even though looks like I am paying out more than I am earning).

* I am planning to seriously compete with other multipools and I want people to come to my pool and I want them to be happy with their earnings

* My software can switch algorithms, so it is not always X11. It can be X13 for example, so this is getting some extra profit as well.

* Yes, my kernel is faster than Wolf's leaked bins. I am not sure how it competes with his private bins though. And even though it is faster, do you think it is faster like 50% or more??? I wish it was true...

* All multipools take relatively high % from miners, usually 2% - 7%. It's just my payment strategy is different. And I think it may be very compelling to some miners who don't care about megahashes, different coin launches, different miners etc... They just want to mine some BTC and they want it to be simple, yet profitable. This is my offering.

A personal question: A few posts ago there was a claim that you can mine Quark for about 2X or 3X the profit, why are you not mining Quark?

Thanks

I've let WestHash auto-algo-switching take care of it for me. I've calculated my GPU's hashing factors and I've found that in some cases it falls short from their estimated factor. So, sometimes even the current most profitable algo isn't the most profitable for me because my GPU is much better at hashing a different algo. Nevertheless, I like your current offer and the first 24h payout looked good. So, I'm over to Dashminer in the meantime Cheesy
