HM Pool BTC has updated its payout structure to match our DGB pool. Lower dev fee, bigger finder bonus, and a new flat participation reward for all connected miners. Live as of today.
Before vs After on a real 3.125 BTC block:
Old:
Dev fee 2% 0.0625 BTC
Finder bonus 10% 0.3125 BTC
Participation None
PPLNS pool 88% 2.75 BTC
Total to miners 3.0625 BTC
New:
Dev fee 1% 0.03125 BTC (cut in half)
Finder bonus 20% 0.625 BTC (doubled)
Participation 5% 0.15625 BTC (0.000521 BTC × 300 workers, for example)
PPLNS pool 74% 2.3125 BTC
Total to miners 3.09375 BTC (+0.03125 more)
Who wins:
The miner who finds the block gets an extra +0.3125 BTC on top of their PPLNS share. For example, every worker connected for 1+ hour gets ~0.000521 BTC flat regardless of hashrate (example based on 300 connected devices). Small miners (Bitaxe, NerdMiner, USB miners) collectively gain more per block combined than under the old structure.
The 1 hour minimum on the participation bonus prevents anyone from connecting right before a block just to grab the reward.
