PPLNS mining Pools

Pay Per Last N Shares (PPLNS) – Payouts depend on the number of the last N shares, which prevents “pool hopping” in search of easy blocks.

Advantages:

Protection against pool hopping (switching between pools to maximize income).
Lower fees compared to PPS.

Disadvantages:

Income varies depending on the pool’s luck.
Not always profitable for miners with unstable connections.
