Depending on your use case, CashApp can be nice as well. While not strictly custodial, I’ve also enjoyed Phoenix (although watch out for the fees on channel open)

1. Payout structure (PPS+, FPPS, etc.)

2. How much of the hashrate the pool controls

3. Withdrawal limits & options

4. Policies and Legal constraints (e.g. KYC)

5. Protocol support & operational support (e.g. stratum V2 support, dashboards)

There are several points of differentiation pool operators can use to make a compelling offering for miners. It comes down to what sort of trade offs you want to make as a miner.

Hey everybody 👋🏼 Glad to be here 🫡
