And why don't you mine on Give-me-coins or Simplevert?
Very easy-intuitive mining pools with great hashrate. They pay, of course... verified.
When I mine I always use one of those pools

give-me-coins has a lot of hashrate mining vertcoin.
We better not mine there

P2Pool FTW!
Edit: give-me-coins as 8% of hashrate, simplevert as 22%. Combined, this two pools got 30% of global hashrate. This could harm the coin (51% attack) if they keep getting higher hashrates.
http://www.verters.com/block-analysisYes, but that two pools are not from the same owner. Example:
Give-me-coins + Simplevert can have the 51%
in total, not individually, so... i don't know, it's different than owning the 51% of the total network.
As well, It's the same debate as in the Bitcoin reddit & forums. It's the 51% attack really good for them? If it's not good for the coin it's no good for them.
Now, I think that we don't need to be scared, lol.
It's important to spread the hash of course!
