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.

So here's my HHTT in memoriam post: http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2014/01/17-goodbye-hhtt-coinbase-will-never-be.html

fireduck, may your piles always be small ones, and your bunions always fade.

Ha, I didn't think anyone noticed.

I mostly stopped adding things because I changed some database security stuff which made it a pain to get to a system that could write to the db to add entries.

I should note that carefully shutting down something you have spent so long building is like strangling a kitten with your bare hands.

I'm having the last node refuse connections for one hour to help people figure out something is wrong. After that, I'm going to bring up a p2pool node with a payout address of Sean's Outpost.

Fireduck,

I went solo one month ago since I had a few more meat-space duties to follow.

It is a sad day today and I can feel all your pain.

I've enjoyed your pool since the autumn of 2011 when I first started mining on it.

You made a great pool, the best in my opinion, I was not even using backup pools when I was mining on HHTT.

That said, you're a brilliant mind and I'm sure you'll soon find new ways to improve the BTC environment and have fun.

My best wishes for a great 2014!

Looks like I've lost a few days worth of profits... Never got paid. Angry

No block
Fireduck, thank you for running this pool. To see it go is a loss for everyone.

Me too... Very sad Cry

But more sad of the fact HHTT, funny and cheap has gone.

Fireduck, better lucky for you in 2014.

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.

Even though I never had a chance to mine here, I'm really sorry to see the pool go. It was innovative, stable, and fun. I have no idea why it wasn't more popular than some of the other larger and less stable pools. I also loved some of the weirdness you included in the coinbase.

Thanks for running a great pool, Fireduck. Good luck with future endeavours.

I just can't lost 0.49070038, it's too much. Please fireduck, do something. It's easy: keep mining solo and after 1~4 months when a block is found, just redistribute the revenue. Fireduck, I trust you, please do something. This service wasn't free, we paid fees. Thank you! Kiss

Yeah, this is why it was in no one's best interest to have this pool at this hash rate. I am absolutely not going to solo mine with my hashing power.

If you are out ~0.5, I am out 4.5 from my own hashing. I'm not going to get that either.

It wasn't free for him to provide the service to you either. In my opinion he has no moral obligation to do this for any of us. He certainly has no contractual obligation to do anything. He mined in his pool and lost the same future reward potential as everyone else with the shutdown.

I totally understand that, and I agree, but I think something can be done. Fry the brain and find a solution. I loved HHTT, but this is worse than horrible and terrible.

Fireduck, you said you have a fund to make payment liquid. So I think you can take this fund and distribute proportionally. Go fireduck! Go! Do something... Cry

Fireduck, what happened with my 0.49070038 PPLNS Share? Since last block found (26 Dec) I contribute with a lot of GH/s. I think you should keep mining alone and distribute the award when you find the block.

Thank you!

Yeah we all contributed lots of GH/s since the last found block. But this is not a PPS pool. The problem is that the difficulty is so high and the hash rate of the pool could not keep up with the difficulty. Too much variance was killing the return. Your PPLNS work is lost, move on. ;-(

Thanks for your effort in hosting and running the pool. It was a good run and I believe it to be one of the most stable pools out there. Good luck with your future plans, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Cheers!

I have a few projects in mind.

1) A notification site, you put in bitcoin addresses or electrum master public keys and then you get a notification on any transactions that occur on any of the addresses.

2) A funds splitting app, where you define a split for funds. Example: 25% goes to address a, 75% to address b. Then you are issued an address and any funds that go to that address is split as defined automatically.

Both of those would be enabled with a bitcoin transaction processing engine using bitcoinj and electrum servers. The transaction engine would be good for people building all sorts of bitcoin related things.
