presently I shall ponder this under the tree of woe.

2) The p2pool does adjust share difficulty, but on a global basis.  So with just my miners attached, everyone who connected will see about 1k share difficulty, which is again problematic for small miners.

I suppose you mean the difficulty for each worker, since it reads like node-basis (i.e with your miners...).
Actually everyone can adjust this by append the number they want to the username (address or not),
for example, 13qnEgPTxJW6mm88dLpnHXZyryN5EXBciq+16
But I think it just make the graphs looks nicer for small miners  Wink


Ah, didn't know that.  But that auto adjust to something to keep the graphs pretty would be very nice.

Hi fireduck, back when you posted I hadn't even looked at p2pool before but I've been into it a lot lately. I made a patch that addresses your point #2 above.

https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/pull/174

It's actually live on the whole VTC p2pool network and works well. I didn't do a similar change for the pseudo share difficulty (the one for graphing/etc) because I was concerned about the increase in bandwidth if a large public node suddenly went from globally 1 share per second to having 1 share per second per miner. Of course, normal pools tend to vardiff people to submit shares every few seconds anyway, so maybe I should do that. It's easily enough to change.

Not mined here but seeing a pool close is sad. (i'm an altcoin pool op myself)

Maybe this would help you to open a mini pool piggybacking off the p2pool net?

This can be done easily, but such a "big pool" feature might not be suitable for p2ool,
I guess it is why forrestv does not implement or hear the request.

You could try --miner-share-rate or --address-share-rate in auto-worker-diff branch of my git fork:

Poor impulse control.
Well the point of p2pool is that everyone should run their own p2pool and not connect to someone else running it, right?

p2Pool is not viable for smaller miners, so a p2Pool proxy is a good alternative.

Ah okay. I've not used it myself. How much hash power should someone have for it to be viable to run yourself?

Most p2Poolers say a share per day should be the minimum. I'm not sure what that means currently, but from the chart below you can see that the bulk of the p2Pool miners are above 100 Ghps.

Just attempted to fire up some mining to this pool and failed which led back here Sad

Sorry to see this closed down. Thanks for all the hard work Fireduck and I hope you have success going forward.

p2pool address given does not resolve for me. Never mind. I got it.

I'll be shutting down the pool today.  I would be surprised if there were any more blocks.

Thanks everyone.

For whatever it is worth, I've switched my personal miners to slush's pool with BTC Guild as a backup.


If you would be so kind, could you please explain your reasoning for switching to Slush instead of any other pool? I tried to run my miners there, but there are constant issues with payouts and reward calculations. It is like the opposite of the stability, reliability, and transparency that HHTT had. I want to support a lower hash rate pool, and I don't mind the variance so much, but not at a significant cost in profitability.

Thank you for your input on this!

I am actually trying p2pool now.  I have a node setup with a 1% fee:
http://b.1209k.com:9332/static/

Note: I might take down or change this at any time.  It is not redundant.  Your username has to be exactly a bitcoin address or you won't get anything.

I've considered building a wrapper around p2pool to make a viable smaller pool but there are some problems.

1) With p2pool, you have to find mini-shares to get paid.  They are about 1m difficulty, so ok for large miners but not good for smaller guys.
2) The p2pool does adjust share difficulty, but on a global basis.  So with just my miners attached, everyone who connected will see about 1k share difficulty, which is again problematic for small miners.

I could pretty easily run redundant nodes (I am not yet and not sure I will) and could write some code to aggregate stats from them to give people reports so it has that going for it.

I might be able to solve problem #2 by hacking at the code a bit, but I'm not sure I want to mess with that.

Alas, good luck fireduck. The backend of HHTT with all of the Amazon services was a work of art. Smiley I do very little BTC mining since I mine on my own TRC pool, but I'm still sad to see HHTT go.

Another pool I'd suggest people take a look at is bitparking (offers merge mining, and uses some of HHTT's back end software).

Unfortunately http://stratum.hhtt.1209k.com:9332/static/ is currently DOWN!

Hey fireduck, what's going on?
He's closing the pool.

I don't mean HHTTMP, I mean the new pool he opened, the P2Pool.

closing the pool

Hey, man. Great pool you had. However, WTF is everyone whining about you closing it, the new p2pool node you run is way better idea! I'm speaking of this: http://stratum.hhtt.1209k.com:9332/static/
I've already made 0.03 bitcoins in that pool and it has been online just a couple of days now.
Maybe I'm missing something but that page doesn't even look complete and how is one supposed to mine off this "new pool" let alone see the hasrate as a whole for said pool ?

It's fully functional, please refer to this: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2Pool

All the JSON stuff is working so that I was able to modify my ASIC monitoring script, the pool just found the 3rd block today!
Thx but I look at that and my head hurts lol...
