I'm currently using the cryptovalley.com pool for mining dogecoin and there are times when there are no payouts for 6-8 hours or more. Other times it can be great paying out a few times an hour but I'm still not sure why it pays sometimes and why it doesn't at all other times. If someone can suggest a different pool or if they have an opinion about using a p2pool.org mining pool I'm curious about those as well. It seems like they are resistant to DoS attacks from what I was reading and there aren't any fees going to the mining pool as well. If its such a great setup, why don't more people use it instead of using a pool that takes a percentage out of each block found. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
