You probably won't lose all of your earnings by switching before a block is found, but you'll likely lose some if the time to find the next block takes a lot longer than average and the pool use the uses "PPLNS" scheme. I wrote a fairly long post about the potential downsides to PPLNS in another thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2898687.msg30133809#msg30133809 which hasn't been commented on so beware of any potential errors on my part.

don't spread missinformation, check 1st merit @ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=209640

Where is the misinformation in my reply? No where on the Zpool website does it state what payment scheme is used and other multi-algo, auto-switching pools do use PPLNS so it was reasonable for me to assume that Zpool did to. Nevertheless, I did write "if...the pool uses the 'PPLNS' payment scheme." which indicates I was not sure what payment scheme is used.

BTW - you could have been a bit more diplomatic - not to say courteous - by merely writing, "Zpool uses the proportional scheme, not PPLNS."



the scheme is PROP not PPLNS

edit... as I see was already corrected Smiley thanks
