Get around 30% cut? #43

Closed jackeown closed 6 years ago

jackeown commented 7 years ago

From what I can tell, CoinHive takes 30% of your potential profits...can you use this to bypass them?

soyuka commented 7 years ago

nope, try this: https://github.com/cazala/coin-hive-stratum

cazala commented 7 years ago

You can setup your own stratum proxy with that package ☝️ and mine on a pool like nanopool.org or minexmr.com which have like a 1% commision. I built a toy service minero.pw that works with coinhive's miner but takes only a 2% commision, and you can get payed in a different currency than Monero. You could use that or even build your own.

So you're saying with this you don't have to pay coinhive, but you can still use their code to mine?

cazala commented 7 years ago

Well, yes, technically their miner can be configured by design to point to a different proxy thru the CoinHive.CONFIG.LIB_URL and ConHive.CONFIG.WEBSOCKET_SHARDS properties.. so it is just a matter setting up a proxy, and their miner can be used as it is... no need to mod it or anything.

If you are interested in mining on a different pool, I just created a tool to deploy a stratum proxy to now.sh: CoinHive Proxy

Theoretically, I don't see profit of using other miners than coin hive, because of "difficulty". For example, supportxmr.com (d=1000) will recieve 4x times less hashes than CoinHive (d=256). Correct me if I'm wrong

cazala commented 6 years ago

Yes and supportxmr.com will also give you 4x money for your shares. Difficulty doesn't impact on profits, only how often jobs will be submitted.
