ran some 24 hour tests on this coin. results are not even close to the estimates as others have said. and not by a small margin...at least short by 40%. you cannot contribute that to bad luck given 1) one pool has all the hashrate 2) it's so ridiculously far off.

nice to mine though with the low wattage but no thanks.

the community needs to do more about the concentration of the hashrate in one pool. i'm not sure what the best way to do it would be. it's obvious miners won't switch to other pools individually if there is no concerted effort. that would mean potentially sacrificing their rewards. however, if there is a concerted effort to move hashrate from MPH to, let's say, suprnova, then more people would switch over.

is anyone else concerned about this? let's do something about it.

Thats why I moved to MintPond a few days ago and just see what a really small pool would give me. I was afraid it would just never find a block, or at least take a very long time. So far Ive contributed to finding 3 blocks and returns are AWESOME, like 50% more than I got on MPH. Could be that pool luck was just good, of course.

If you do not Algo/Pool switch but rather want to focus on just mining Lyra2z (for me because of high electricity costs its most profitable), I do not see a disadvantage of profitability in the long run. I dont care if I get a large chuck every 2 days or this steady stream of small amounts from MPH.

MintPont is also growing quickly. It has no fees and a great UI, dev is friendly and I love to support this

yes, i'm trying mintpond now as well. i like the UI.
