I fail to understand how mining with the same rig can double earnings vs doge ? It's about equal nowadays with a bit uppper hand in vtc ? 5Mh/s doge about 0.05 btc. 2.5Mh/s vtc now is about 0.06 btc? Am i missing anything ?

The "double earnings" aspect is with respect to my historical earnings with DOGE. At the current difficulty, estimates put me at about 0.03 BTC/day with my hashrate, so not quite double. Even then, when I compared my average daily earnings over a 14 day period on DOGE, I found that I was consistently about 30% under the what most estimate calculators put me at. So while it's idle speculation, I would still say that in reality, I would be making 0.025-0.03 BTC/day on DOGE, and my actual earnings with VTC (with the suppressed exchange) are >0.04 BTC/day.

Interestingly, it seems that over the past couple weeks I've been able to get very close to my "estimated daily earnings" listed on the pool, which was never the case with DOGE. I don't know if there is just more fluctuation with DOGE or what, but I personally like knowing that at my hashrate, the calculators say 15 coins and I get ~15 coins.
