New P2Pool Node - East Coast USA - NO FEE!

wrapper

P2pool shares are global. If your site goes down it just picks up at another p2pool. That may be why you already had shares.

It is possible to extract information via p2pool by adding the following variables to the site name e.g.

http://2.80.39.11:19327/difficulty

Variables available from p2pool :
difficulty
rate
users
user_stales
fee
current_payouts
patron_sendmany
global_stats
local_stats
peer_addresses
peer_txpool_sizes
peer_versions
recent_blocks

Oops. so apparently when I close the putty session, P2pool closed as well, sorry. Its back up now.

are you running on linux?

Then checkout the screen program

screen -dmS P2pool ./run_p2pool.py <PARMETERS>

This starts a disconnected shell.

You can connect to the shell with

screen -r P2pool

and leave the screen session with

ALT-a d  <CR>

I am a little curious as to why I dont see a miner on your site for address:

yet it is receiving big payouts each block…

That would be my address. The p2pool node wasn’t public.
It is now. I’m testing a few things.

Hi and welcome! Seems like we have had some decent luck today.

How do I set my diff for your pool?

Set it as part of the payment address. There is an explination here: http://xpool.net/faq.html about half way down.

I have about 1.2MH/s and I used this as a difficulty setting: address/0+0.00145

You also can mine on the pool without specifying a difficulty setting. Based on the shares your miner submits, the pool should adapt the difficulty, if the pool version is >= 13.4-7x

Would be great, if you try it out and give a feedback.

Yeah it seems to jump all over the place, going up to diff 32 and then dropping suddenly down to diff 0.010 and rejecting all my shares. Hence why I want to try fixed diff. Not worried about it though, still mined almost 3k ftc yesterday lol.

That is strange. It started at 0.1 for me and then increased up to ~ 8 and staying around that diff.

nevertheless 3kFTC per day is a lot :)

I get ~ 25 FTC per day with my 125kHash machine.

Well mining about 12-14 hours per day only… ;)

I was going to mention the adaptive difficulty Wellenreiter added to FTC p2pool. It’s been working great on all my tests aswell

RIPPEDDRAGON

went with 0+0.00300 to give me diff 12…ish

overall valid rate is up a little bit, stale % is down

AmDD

Updated the pool to feathercoin 0.9.3. Outtage was only about 30min. Thanks to @Wellenreiter for more assistance, seriously somebody give this guy a raise! :)

RIPPEDDRAGON

I am so surprised with how many sites burning people we don’t see more on p2pools.

I am crushing blocks on this node, but would love to have more friends! Come join my 7+MH/s farm.

I agree with @RIPPEDDRAGON , that is why I’ve always supported p2pool, and such as @Wellenreiter and @Ghostlander did so much work to make sure, anyone can run a fair / open source and distributed FTC pool, especially on the Neoscrypt change over …

AmDD

I also agree. Its one of the reasons I stuck around with Feathercoin. It always seemed like p2pool was pushed here more than another coin. Granted our hash distribution doesnt really show it with cointron controlling so much but the people in the community, the ones who really matter, are pro-p2pool and thats great!

Hash away my friends!

any guesses who is running the 80MH/s rig on coinotron? I feel like I need to get rigs 4 and 5 built so I can get more than 10 MH/s…

Why not sold the parts and buy FTC directly while the price is low?

I have sold off 1/3rd of my parts so far, I am currently buying FTC with real $, and with these custom rackmount chassis costing me $550 each I am unlikely to sell off the remainder of my parts.

Mining is also a method of heating for my house every winter and will continue to heat my house as long as its cheaper to heat than oil. Even with oil at $1.55 a gallon here its still a better deal for me to mine.
