Because of that, you can't put P2Pool and Eligius in the same boat regarding trust.
Absolutely. IMHO there are only 2 ways to mine that are completely, 100% trustworthy:
P2pool.
Solo mining.
..and only a few pools that are run by proven trustworthy operators:
Kano.is
ckpool (solo)
Bitminter.
(& BTCGuild - RIP)
I pointed an S3 at this scam pool for less than 2 minutes & I feel cheated

God knows how miners who spent days/weeks on here must feel.......
