thanks.

so far:...


Slushpool:    2% pool fee                  pays out tx fees to miners                 a fair deal                       tested IRL

Viabtc.com   2% pool  fee                 pays out tx fees to miners                 a fair deal                      tested IRL




Btc.com:                     ??unspecified fee                pays averaged tx fees out with pps block reward, takes some unknown % pool fee.
                                                                        might be 2% to 8%, but havent tried to juggle the #s to determine.. looks ok, but
                                                                         the fact is they are very evasive about exactly what they are charging in the way of pool fees.
                                                                            can anyone help me with this??

Btc.top:          uncertain               cant find pool policies on site, have run my translator over everything i could and cant find fee/payment policies
                                     presumed                        not commiting a miner to the test, asking for input on this one, assuming the worst. red flag.
                                     not-good                                 they don't respond to my inquiries as to 'pool rules'.



Antpool:       0% pool fee          does NOT pay out tx fees to miners        Not an attractive option       tested IRL




F2pool:           still checking               no mention of tx fees,                they keep them, and they                   pay +3%pps.  
                                                                                                                another DREADFUL CHOICE


Smaller pools:     working on it


Kano.is                                             Pool paysout Block rwd and  tx fees           Very Fair Deal         pool fee is only  0.9%      
                                                        small (<1% of networ) pool, but your rewards are therefore proportionally larger.. should hit on average 15 blocks per difficulty period
                                                        think ill put an old s1 there and tell you how it does      ...inna bouta fortnite...
 
                                                       


Bitcoin.com:                                     Tosses the miner a 10% crumb bonus on regular pps, which they can
                                                       fund with the tx fees which they don't pay out. NOT a fair
                                                       system unless you are among the priveleged few who burn money in the fireplace because
                                                       "it clutters up the house."   NAH..

Bw.com                                            Same old same old, but absolutely no indication on what pool fee is or if they payout tx fees.
                                                       Why should I bother trying to find out. Wouldn't waste my time on this one either.
                                                       If you know otherwise, please PM me.
                                                        

Solo:...

Solo.ckpool.org    1%   fee                If you find a block, don't fret over the 1% and feed a few stray cats while you are at it.
                                                       [size of a solo pool, large or small, of course makes no difference for solo.]




viabtc.com :          1%                      offers solo connection at a 1% fee, the usual

                                                           many other pools large and small offer solo mining if you dare or have boatloads of hash power... just keep an eye on the fee.




I've posted this for the benifit of those who want to distribute their hashpower broadly across the network without losing a big chunk of
their A22

i will try to complete this list as time allows me.. good luck to you all
a dash of hash in the smaller pools could be good also
