I've just started using Awesome Miner and also very new to mining but I'm really liking Awesome Miner.  Can someone please explain what this plugin does and why it is useful?  The only thing that clicked on the OP was "Updates coin statistics inside of AwesomeMiner for coins not on WhatToMine. This can be extremely useful for new and bleeding edge coins." but I only see that as useful if you wanted to mine those specific coins, but then why be bothered about coin price at that point?  If coin price or daily profit was paramount, aren't the more established coins better off?

Thanks!

Pool groups my man!  When you setup a bunch of pools for these individual coins into a pool group in Awesome Miner, you now have the statistics to do your own profit-switching between real coins and not through a service like Zpool, MPH, ahashpool, etc.

Also, it's good to keep an eye on some coins in one spot rather than having to go check web sites like WTM, crypto-coinz.net and the like and having to put in your hashing power over and over.  AM already knows your hashing power, so you will get more accurate results.
