Have you guys looked at the block distribution?  There are 3 miners with and excess of thirty workers each and one with about 14.  I would say that is slightly ridiculous.  What is the point of resistant coin if this happens?  Honestly all these guys wanna do is sell off for btc or eth or something. But that is my opinion.  If that is not the case then I apologize.

P.S.

I have no objection if you have five i7 or i5 pcs. I object to 30 of them.

Right, I sort of feel you.  The thing is, if they go through the expense of buying a Full node and mining by the rules then they get the equal reward.
However, I might consider limiting the miner count to 20 workers per user address, so we dont break the pool.



I'm afraid you can't fight this .   what prevents them from creating 10 accounts 20 CPUs each ?

I agree, not trying to stop them from mining.  Just trying to stop them from polluting all the reports, in specific, the Stats column in block_distribution.

Also, technically if I did add the limit of 20 workers per account, they would have to manage 5 accounts, which is cumbersome, and would definitely slow the pace of the expansion down.

Not sure yet; Im also considering just grouping large accounts by minerid and letting them run rampant.  Its a tough one.



I don't think managing 5 accounts will be cumbersome, because all they need to do is changing the worker id in the biblepay.conf file. The only problem is login to different pool's account for stats and reports.

I think it is better to have more pools, I know someone is waiting to setup a new pool for biblepay  Grin
