Hi,

Requesting new Bitcoin Pool add https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=481194.0

Pool: Coinminers
Website: https://coinminers.co
Payout method: PPS
Fee: 1% (currently 0% for beta phase)
Pay Tx Reward: Yes
Vardiff: 16 to 1024
Local Work: Stratum
Pay Orphans: No
Min Withdrawal: 0.10
Merge Mining: No

Thank you

I'll add you to the list - but before I do, are you sure you want to go with proportional reward? It's a bit dangerous for any pool. There are only two pools left doing proportional rewards and neither of them are doing well.

I think that I will change it to PPS .

You could be putting yourself at financial risk by using PPS. Proportional would be safer for the pool.

PPLNS is also available for these pools. Proportional has a better record of killing pools than PPS, from what I can remember.

From what I understand PPLNS could be safe for a pool too.

I would just hate to see a new pool go into debt with PPS, unless they have really deep pockets to start with. But even then PPS would be too risky, in my opinion, which isn't really worth much

So which is the best one for a new pool? First I need some users lol. I may switch it back to prop because pplns has to be tweaked to the right settings to work good.
