Anyone seeking for a decentralized Bitcoin mining pool
About P2Pool
P2Pool is a decentralized Bitcoin mining pool that works by creating a peer-to-peer network of miner nodes. As opposed to usual pools, P2Pool helps to secure Bitcoin against double-spending and 51% attacks. P2Pool's initial setup requires a little more effort but provides equivalent payouts with a higher variance and no need for trust in a pool operator. Due to SegWit already activating upgraded users of P2Pool must not mine SegWit transactions as they are incompatible with older P2Pool versions. After v17 shares activate a new release will be made which removes this restriction. Within a few minutes, it should start showing sections like this (notice the pool hashrate - Pool: 115TH/s - is now shown), indicating that the sharechain has finished downloading. As you can see from the timestamps, here it took about one and a half minutes. It will vary depending on your CPU speed and Internet bandwidth.

Instead on Ethpool you accumulate credits towards a full block payout and only receive a payout once you accumulate enough credits to be the first in line at the top of the payout list for the next block found by the pool.

Litecoinpool
Welcome to the first true pay-per-share (PPS) Litecoin pool. Every valid share you submit to this pool is instantly credited to your account at the current pay-per-share (PPS) rate. This rate, expressed in litecoins, also takes into account merged-mined coins such as Dogecoin, resulting in higher payouts than a regular Litecoin pool. Thanks to merged mining, you have to pay no fee; in fact, your earnings will be higher than with a 0-fee PPS system. This is not a PPLNS, SMPPS or RBPPS pool: we always pay for your work, even if the pool has not yet solved enough blocks to cover the earnings generated. On other systems, miners are only rewarded when and if a block matures, but sometimes blocks get orphaned from the Litecoin network, and therefore yield no reward. A PPS pool, on the other hand, takes on the risk of bad luck so you don't have to deal with variance and orphaned blocks.

Hashalot
Join other miners to find blocks as a group. When anyone finds a block, everyone earns a piece of the reward. Mine on your own. You'll get the full block reward when you find a block, less any pool fees. Confirmed balances are processed once per hour. It takes 100 confirmations to confirm a block before balances are confirmed. The transaction fees for all balance payments are paid by Hashalot and included in each pool's fee. Once a block is confirmed, the reward is paid proportionately to the work that was done to find that block between all miners. Every share has a final value, where as in PPLNS, shares expire after some time. This payout scheme rewards the finder of the block with the entire block reward, less any pool fees. This is best for those with large hashrates.
