Even ETH alone is almost 2 times more profitable than LBRY on a 970 given the current difficulty and public miners.
Not to piss in anyone's cereal I'm only saying this to show that an upfront price plus a fee won't attract many miners who do basic math (but it's mostly the upfront price).
Just checked..
Not twice - almost same +\- depends from pools lags and exchange play
Yes, discard my previous post (partly).
I only ever look at current figures of profitability and not averages. LBRY jump a lot up and down.
Anyway, I barely spent any time with mining lately but still, Eth's profitability is pretty poor compared to other alternatives and LBRY - even if it might be slightly better sometimes it probably won't be for long.
Sp_ please ditch the 0.1 fee, we subscribed a few times for that amount for different miners but you always come up with something else we should subscribe to.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you don't deserve it but it's just not a transparent and reliable system. What if you never make a newer version or decide to opensource it tomorrow? Or what if it doesn't work for us as advertised for whatever reason? And for most miner 0.1 is either too much or too little.
With a fee based version none of that's an issue. (Yeah, I know it introduces a bunch of other issues but a fee based miner is more reliable and user friendly.)
