I'm getting pretty miffed from the lack of support for p2p mining. Mining for 24 hours and only 4 blocks found- netting me an average 50% less than what I should have gotten if I was pooled.
I really do not understand why p2p is not preferred to pooled mining? No sign up, no autocash out, no pool fees? Am I just crazy?
To that end, are there any pools that I can connect to over port 80? Besides mu.pool since the hashrate there is waaay too low.
Some P2pools charge pool fees just so you know. Miners like consistency and they don't want to venture away from where the hash is since they want to even out their rewards. While p2pools can do equally well assuming there is enough hash behind it and enough time is given, most just follow where the hash is parked. Thus resulting in a catch-22 with decentralization/centralization.
