I was mining z-coin on mininpoolhub and boy did it pay off , from 10-12 $ price at that time to 34 atm , Just auto converted on mininpoolhub , On average I earned around 5-6 $ per card for the past 30 days only , but don't know why buts what to mine calculations are always off about this coin ,Pool luck is a B***** , Anyways the power consumption is amazing on this algo around 400 watts for whole system with 3 1080 tis , I was amazed when I first saw the consumption .
zcoin is love, zcoin is life. Saw a few here complain about mining on MPH, but i really have no issue so far. Zcoin's payout and consumption totally deter me from even trying other algo.

it is hard to argue here, very nice coin indeed!
though I would liket to have other pools there, like yiimp.ru for example
cause nova is stealing shares, mph - well I have huuges suspicions doing the same
but unfortunately there is NO alternative
i mined XVG at yiimp before it was stolen, then went at hr. then yiimp was up - i returned and remarked, that profit become 25% down from before and hr.
