Bitminter apparently has a 1% fee on income earned since 04.2013 - is this standard? Are there good pools without a fee?
The 1% fee is true, all biggest pools have small fee afaik.
If you want, you may try some small pools without fee, but I dont know how stable and reliable these are
If you want a small pool with no fees, there are a certain amount of risk. For example, if the small pool only have a few TH, it can be very long before you even get a payout. Yes, there are a small amount of medium sized to large sized pools which have no fees. But i havent seen one with decent hashrates and no fees.
