I did a trial of
Rigly (nprofile…kc8a)'s pool mining today. It was 1000 sats for 3hrs of 120TH/s hash power using the Braiins pool. It was easy to sign up, pay the invoice, and begin hashing. I was able to monitor my workers the whole time with the hash rate fluctuating between 105TH/s and 120TH/s. I made 595 sats over my 3 hours.
As well as it all worked, I'm a little confused as to why I would pay for larger hash contracts given that my return on a 1000 sat investment was 595 sats. I'd effectively be paying to receive about 50% of the expense. That doesn't make sense to me. Am I missing something? #musings
