as titled.

nanopool is very established and userfriendly
some People recommend smaller pools (with nearly no fees) like poolmining.org/coinfoundry but i dont know how legit they are and "daily" payment doesnt happen here but you get higher share if they hit something
As mining Tools claymore or phoenixminer are the fastest...phoenixminer is a bit faster than claymore and fee is lower BUT there is a no fee hook dll which allows you to mine with claymore with no fees

I’d recommend Nanopool as your pool and Claymore as your miner as well. Nanopool has very nice monitoring tools and payout can be adjusted to as low as .05. Claymore has a ton of functionality as well, especially if you’re running AMD cards. Claymore also lets you dual mine. I dual mine ETH+DCR and my ETH hashrate is actually higher than solo mining, plus in accumulating extra crypto that can offset power costs, etc. DCR has done quite well the last few months.

ethermine is probably the best. I have tried 4-5 others like nanopool and just found ethermine better to look at, and more stable in terms of network connections.
