As I see there no point to mine Monero on a typical machine if your point is not to help the network, I do have 10k/h just to help Monero. So, why would anyone mine monero?

I have been mining since about November of last year and have gotten ~0.12XMR for my efforts. Sure its not much, but i did obtain it permissionlessly. I also have not had 8khs the whole time. Most of that time was with 2khs. Most of that 0.12XMR has been earned in the last 3 months since getting to 8khs.

I assume you're mining in a pool? If so, may I ask which one you're using? Definitely not a small reward in my opinion, this would be of use to me, especially since I have servers and SBCs just sitting there doing nothing. Might be worth getting them setup.

I am using monerod.org because i am not contributing to centralization by using one of the large pools like supportxmr but am still getting regular payouts.

Was looking for something like this! I didn't want to contribute to one of the massive pools but was having a hard time finding a good pool to use. Thank you very much! Do you have an XMR Address that you could share? I'd like to send a micropayment your way as a thanks!

You can also check out gupax.io

It makes it a few mouse clicks to setup your own xmrig + p2pool install on your computers.
