Are Braiins Pool Honest?
638 sats \ 6 comments \ @Solomonsatoshi 9h bitcoin_Mining
Have been mining via braiins pool for a while now and today looking at the hashrate of my two miners...
  • the reported rate direct from my miners versus the rate recorded on the braiins pool page is substantially different.
The miners are reporting ~800 GH and ~3.3 TH while on Braiins they are saying the rates are ~390 GH and ~2.7TH.
The Braiins rates are for the last hour and the miners direct rates are from a similar time period.
Has anyone accurately checked the accuracy/honesty of Braiins pool?

I used to mine with brains before i switched to ocean but i have never seen such a difference... Of course if you turn the miner of for a while and the pool calculates an average this could explain it...

Yes but the miner is going continuously and over many hours now the miner reports substantially higher Hash rate than Braiins are reporting...especially on the smaller miner unit. I have noticed a difference before but never as large as I am seeing now. The smaller miner is showing on Braiins currently at less than half what the miner itself reports.
Ocean does sound like a more honest/ethical operator but I think its quite a bit harder to set up for LN payments.

Could it be the small miner can't handle the difficulty? I didn't try setting up ln payments so far..

Sometimes I think it is script running pretending mining on cloud mining sites.

Try mining with Ocean and compare the payouts.

Check how many accepted/rejected shares your miners have. (If the miners show that) Maybe you just got unlucky and did not find many shares in that one hour period. If you find shares only very rarely, it might make sense to mine at a lower difficulty.
And btw, Braiins Pool seems to share the same block template with other pools: https://stratum.work/sankey
