I hope this will serve Miners in Europe, since it is a powerfull low latency and highspeed full node. 5% fee. Thank you.

I have gone through the steps in the link above, but I still have couple questions.

1. Do I need to run bitcoin-qt in my miner, if I'm not running p2pool node locally?

2. Only if I want to setup my machine as public p2pool node that I need to have bitcoin-qt in my machine with full bitcoin blockchain?

3. I have seen some public p2pool node, we can order them according to our preference in the config file? but some public p2pool node does charge additional fees?

I'm sure it has been answered somewhere, direct answers or pointer to links are fine. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I running p2pool with multiple currencies and I would like to know how to calculate minimum hash rate needed per worker to solve share. Cause some miners not gathering predicted payout as other.

I'm getting this message in p2pool logs:

New work for worker! Difficulty: 999.984741 Share difficulty: 4637653.326135 Total block value: 25.123766 BTC including 705 transactions

And for example will miner with 180GH/s(or 600GH/s) can accept & solve this share?

I am interested in formula, not just answer (cause in future I want to make script which will help user to decide to mine on p2pool or not)

Also if for example 180GH/s is unable to solve that share, but are 3x180GH/s(or more) on same address will be?

Thanks for yours answers.

The constant work restarts are eating like FOUR HUNDRED khs out of my 4x R9 290 rig. What a total piece of garbage! This is my opinion from my direct experience. If you are using P2Pool you need to compare it to something else with full uptime with great scrutiny.

HI I am somewhat new to p2pool. I have setup a BTC node. now i want to set up a Darkcoin node on windows 7. Problem is, I cant seem to find any instruction for this anywhere.all i find is litecoin and vertcoin. Can anyone point me to info regarding this topic?

I'm new to P2Pool, I might have the terminology wrong, feel free to correct me. I started off on some public servers, but now I'm experimenting with my own node. Since I'm the only one connecting to my server, should I bother with the /1000+512 at the end of my 'username'?

From what I understand, those options are there mostly to play nice and reduce network traffic. But I assume that is only traffic between my miner and my server, and I know that there's bandwidth to spare. Are there other considerations?

I've been mining for a few days on a public P2Pool server. I'd like to redirect the payments to a different address. Am I correct in my understanding of PPLNS that I can switch at any time and won't gain/loose any payout?

For example, if a block is found soon after the switch, the old address will get paid lots and the new address a little. If the next block is a long time after the switch, the old address will get less and the new one lots. Either way, it should (roughly) balance out, right?

I see on p2pool.info that the last block found was 7 months ago. Is P2Pool dead? What happened? Why didn't P2Pool take over the entire mining pool market? It seems to me it essentially solves the centralization issue since the transaction selection rules are enforced by open-source software.

I have the option of placing my P2Pool server on a fast, stable network that is remote to where my miners are. I can't move the miners to the same location. Would the faster network (gigabit vs. ~30Mb) be a benefit? It would mean more lag between the miners and the server, but less lag between my P2Pool instance and the rest of the network. I'm not sure which has a greater effect on stales/orphans/DOA shares.

Your thoughts and opinions are welcome, thanks in advance.

I run a small p2pool node that merge mines scrypt coins. I've never made the pool public because I never figured out how to payout the merge mined coins. Is there an easy way to do this?

I run a crypto trade signal groups and as a result have managed to find some political, economic and diplomatic connections who have links to large volume buyers like banks and various other large companies who want to purchase BTC in tranches of 100k- 1million BTC in one transaction.

We now have a robust process using a top 100 worldwide lawyer based in London and TMF group to provide KYC and AML checks.

We want to avoid the usual OTC brokers and exchanges because these clients want 7-20% discount below the spot price of Bitcoin.

Hope someone can connect with us.

hello,

anyone can give me a step by step discription to setup a p2pool node scanner? https://github.com/litecoin-project/p2pool-scanner

this is my p2pool page where i want to integrate the scanner --> http://www.eu-pool.net

i want to setup a node scanner for each coin. but we can begin with the example for litecoin.

thanks for help

Post your P2Pool nodes here in the following format:

Node address: hostname:port

Fee: x%

Data center: Yes/No

Location: City, State, Country

I use Malwarebytes Premium. I've put the p2pool folder and p2pool.exe and monerod.exe in the allowed list, and I've opened 3333, 18080, and 37889. I'm constantly getting IP blocks as exploited. It seems tons of the peers on p2pool are on the malwarebytes naughty list. Thoughts?
