Good practices
ALWAYS decentralize POW networks, it's your first duty as a crypto-miner.
NEVER mine directly to an exchange address, rule number one in blockchain: NOT your private keys, NOT your coins.
ALWAYS check if the pool latency, relative to your geographical location, is within a range of acceptance: < 300ms.
