Why is DOA shares SO high?

17% work loss AND 2% fee..  oh yeah this is the answer.  Use Eliguis 100% FREE

Don't use p2pool.org.  There are lots of better and free alternatives.  Post your location, I'm sure there's someone here with a node local to you.

Decentralize your hashing - p2pool - Norgz Pool
Thanks, Norgs, your antminer tweaking tips, I have set up pseudo share as you have them there but not really seeing any difference to what I previously had. It has only been running for 16 hours since I did it.

What results were you getting with them?
The pseudo shares are only applicable if you have other miners on your node and they seem to just smooth out the graphs a bit too.

Am I the only one seeing less shares lately?

That's how it works when there's more hashrate.  The share difficulty goes up, so the number of shares you get will go down.  That will affect your payout.  However the pool should get more blocks, so it should even out.

(Share difficulty is currently at 3.1 million, the highest I've ever seen it.)

Yeah, one of the downside of p2pool hashrate going up but it should even out as m says with more blocks found. there were two just in the last 12-24 hours.

I have Armory installed, but it wants to stop my core from running and thats what I am using on the p2pool  service....
What is the appropriate thing to do?

Don't run your Armory wallet on the same machine as p2pool  Tongue

There is a setting somewhere in Armory for it to use a running copy of Bitcoin Core instead of trying to run it's own copy

Thanks... but I found that setting and it seems to be updating itself with my p2pool bitcore.....
I will see how it all reacts...
So far all is running fine and I am at 65% wallet updated.....

Ok will see what I can do..... thanks again...

Hey Guys... A bit off topic... what wallet do you think is the best to hold coin? I was keeping everything in coinbase, but recently found that that is not that wise???
Thanks for anyones input...

Bryon

There are a few great options, and I'm sure more opinions...

I like Armory, and it does require bitcoind on the same machine:
https://bitcoinarmory.com

Exactly. If you have enough space to keep the blockchain. If you have not got so much space or have bad connection, use MultiBit.

But, again, I would recommend a wallet, that has a local blockchain copy. Use Armory if you can.

I appreciate the info...
OK now ...

Put my wallet on a different computer?   No really an option these days.......
Thanks again for any advise...

Agreed on keeping up the pressure, have about six posts already in their various threads, I suspect we won't hear anything from them till they ship, hopefully the 14th...

I guess my point is they said they would make it happen and they have not let me down yet...

Hardware reaching EOL is a fact of mining, right now I see plenty of regular payouts @ the 40 GH/s level.

That number will continue to rise as the network rate increases...

But statements that "none" or "most" hardware is not compatible will do nothing but scare new miners away from p2pool, an accurate list of what works, what does not, and why would be a great resource...

windpath, I think we're all aware of what Bitmain said, it's what they do that's important. Better to post on their thread with the rest of us to keep the pressure on them rather than copying their posts here I think eh?

Also, there is far more hardware that doesn't work with p2pool than there is that does work. Anything less than 200gh will very soon become obsolete with p2pool, if it isn't already. S1's, chilis & older asic hardware won't be worthwhile running - which happen to be p2pools backbone. The minimum requirement will soon be more like 500gh in order to get any kind of return.

Maybe setting up a table of p2pool compatible hardware would be handy - the do's v the don'ts - as obviously the stuff listed on the p2pool wiki is wildly out of date - it was probably updated the last time p2pool was...... Cheesy Cheesy
