I think it's a great idea! I'll donate to help support the pool.

Donate hashing power, coding, or something else?

Sorry, to clarify I can donate bitcoin and/or coding help. I don't have any hashing power unfortunately.

IMO the idea is good. My neptune is dead tho and KNC doesnt wanna fix it.

It would very much depend on the type of pool - are you thinking about a p2pool node? That would be possible.

Setting up a brand new pool would mean very unpredictable payouts.

I have some KnC hardware, but much of it is starting to fail. No point in fixing it anymore. I also do not know how long I will keep them turned on, there is just so much hashpower that has been added - I am monitoring it all the time but there is a time when I must call it a day (and admit I had a lot of fun, and learned a lot, by being involved in mining).

(If there is anyone in Iceland who is willing to fix some machines for an affordable rate - let me know. It is not worth flying over, and it is not worth tech support at the DC fixing things).

A mining pool is a good idea. I would commit to buying ~7500 watts of hashpower to put towards a pool if you were running it.

Would it be asking too much to take it a step further? If you do this, would you organize an ASIC supply store for your users as well? I am not savvy enough to know which of these ASIC rigs to trust, but I would trust your judgement.

You need large mining pools, not solely used for mining power - but for leverage.
