Thinking about switching mining pools

I've been with Slushpool since I began mining. It seems lately that my rewards are decreasing more than I would expect them to. I mine with 4 Antiminer S9's at 13.5 TH each.

My question is to those who also mine with Antiminer S9's - what pool are you mining with and what are your daily rewards from the pool? I'm not asking about costs, electricity, etc, just daily rewards from your pool.

Thanks,

BMQ

Localbitcoins Biased Support - Mishandling my case

Here are series of events and I need opinions from experts here

I open trade for $41500
Seller sends bank details
I couldn't pay as bank was closed so I cancel
Next day I reopen trade and confirm bank details again
Seller confirms and I pay
Seller texts me on phone to cancel and he will send btw directly to wallet.
I refuse and argue
He gets pissed and disputes
Admin asked for ID next to trade screen I provide
Admin asks me to provide ID next to payment screen. I explain that I paid in person at branch and provide receipt and lbc screen in a photo
Lbc asks seller to provide account statement and he refused claiming he never sent details
Lbc paste his messages and ask again. He says it was copy paste error although the second trade was 12 hours later.
Admin once again asks me to provide online banking screen and id together. I once again explained the situation about in person payment and I sent receipt held next to phone screen, ID held to phone screen, bank statement showing transaction stamped and signed by bank, bank letter in reply to my complain about transfer where bank states they can't give me refund as funds have already been credited to beneficiary. I sent 24 pages of evidences and explanations.
After waiting whole weekend , lbc once again asks me to send id with Internet banking screen and same explanation they asked before I uploaded 24 pages. They simply asked same question without reading my attachments. Plus they gave 12 hours deadline or it will be resolved against me with other party haven't provided a single evidence

If you realise seller provided nothing yet. Just 2 messages in last 7 days. Is this fair? Why they don't read attachments that we provide? What next I should do?

Trade number is 25406498

Just realized I lost 3 Bitcoin b/c of my inexperience with paper wallets last year

Bought some Bitcoin a few years ago. Last July I decided to finally move them to a safer option than Coinbase. I created some paper wallets and sent them over. I remember being extremely nervous b/c that was the first time I sent anything out of Coinbase. Everything seemed successful and I’ve checked my balance using my address every few months since then. I finally decided to move them onto my Ledger and claim my forks. Apparently I clicked the BIP-38 box and created a password. I have no recollection of this and no record of any password or passphrase. The frustrating part is that I have created many wallets since for other coins and take every precaution with backups/laminating copies and putting them in a fireproof safe. All I remember is reading that as long as you had your private key you are good to go with the paper wallet. I can’t find a copy of a password anywhere. I’ve reached out to WalletRecoveryServices.com and hope they can help, but I’m feeling pretty hopeless here. Anyone have any other ideas or success stories?On the bright side, I have a job, a home, and an amazing wife. I’d also like to think that the fact that one can lose these coins so easily because of a simple mistake, we have a ways to go before it goes mainstream. It definitely stings quite a bit today tho. If anyone has any ideas let me know. Thanks via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2vmS55L

Uncle died with no will. What do I do with bitcoin? (x-post from /r/personalfinance)

My uncle recently died unexpectedly without a will. I am his next of kin. He had no assets except several bitcoin.

I have my both my uncle's computer and cell phone, which gives me access to the bitcoin. He had also recently added me to his bank account as a joint owner. I'd like to avoid a lengthy probate process. What is the best way to go about taking control of the bitcoin? Ideally I'd like to convert it to USD as I know very little about bitcoin and I'm uncomfortable with the risk.
