suggestion what if somebody creates a btcz miner and like ewbf certain % goes to the developer , what if we make use of that fee to get us listed on those exchanges that requires payment.
That is briliant. Someone sent email to suprnova about a special fee for development and no response. Then pcmining.xyz introduced that fee but miners are just not joining. This could change things...
Seems like a good idea worth looking into.
Dunno who sent that email to me, but I didn't receive a mail about "special fee for development".
However, I don't think this should be MY (or the pool's) decision, the miners should decide if they want to donate for development or not, i'm just running the pool. I can post a text in the header of the pool with an address of the dev's where donations should/can go to if that would help...
Ocminer I sent you an email from supernova pool BitcoinZ where I was logged in my names stealth on pool,I asked if you would offer option to donate 0.5% from pool earning towards dev fund and if you could highlight miners who are mining with this option like you do for pool donations with the small icon on mining page,we didnt here back from you and thought that strange as I know you are responsive to community,maybe there is a problem with your pool PM service? This was to be completely voluntary with no pressure on miners to donate but most know the importance of getting BitcoinZ on larger exchanges,thanks mate.
Hmm, maybe I'm getting too many support mails there, but I'll check again.
Sure, I can add an option for that, however I often have promos on the pool where mining is completely free for 0% fee etc, so from the "pool earnings" it's probably not really much which could help.. It would be better if miners could directly donate a certain amount of coins for the exchange addition. When reading through the last posts though it seems not many are interested if that would happen directly from the pool, so maybe a different approach for that would be better.. Maybe a twitter/slack campaign or so ? I can add a text to the header on the pool referring to a certain post in this thread or on the homepage which then again refers to the exchange addition bounty.. Maybe it helps.
