I'm not keen on antpool as I've read some pretty salty stuff about them on here, such as them making a million a month and like with heavy fees, also although just a tiny fish I don't like all this mass centralisation with antpool and I'm not at all sure I wan't the return on my investment interrupted by a communist regieme - unlikely, not impossible.
Read that Nicehash may have been hacked for $60million! Anyone know more about that?
One of the biggest motivating factor in choosing a pool will be getting coin out and onto a ledger once a day. I hate to say it - but meh, what odds if I do, not going to effect anything. But the 2 biggest threats to bitcoin are 'tether' and bitfinex going under and antpool or another pool being hacked/slapped with regulation. ,
I would like to insulate myself - to a degree - from massive variance and I don't really want to get too swept up in the 'Ant' mega corp (although no idea why NEO is so low)
I have to say though that I really don't mind which SHA256 coin I mine. Whichever pays the most. I support a football team, Not a $ £ euro or Yen. Plus BTC's transaction fees are beginning to grind my gears. So Ideally for the 2 S9's I'd like a pool that can offer all of the above, without the shit parts of the above - if you get me!?
Suggestions most appreciated
Thanks
