I'm with you on avoiding the KYC/AML and shitcoin pools. Presently my Braiins dashboard shows 5.82 EH/s, while btc .com pool monitor shows 5.07 EH/s and 1.39% of global hashrate, which is over 5x what Braiins pool was 24 hours ago. And in the past 24 hours, we've hit five blocks.

I looked a few of the top pools because I was curious, and the only pool that I didn't feel like I was entering a casino was Pega Pool out of the UK. They also advertised their payout per TH, which I couldn't easily find for anyone else. They have just under 3EH/s and their payout is $0.0704/TH (fluctuates), which pretty much equals what you would make with Braiins pool, when you average it out. But I like the fact with braiins pool that they pay you from each block so you're getting the actual freshly minted bitcoin. I just like the guys too, they've done a lot to make mining more efficient and secure.
