napoleon, I've added the pool to the main list. There is an important discussion happening about what P2pool settings should be the DGC standard. You can read the previous posts to get an idea.

p2pool\networks.py
Code:
       SPREAD=90, # blocks
        IDENTIFIER='7696CFD6441FB537'.decode('hex'),
        PREFIX='4C2530B5ED0E1EB5'.decode('hex'),
        P2P_PORT=23396,
        WORKER_PORT=8810

I can see that the published P2Pool code in post #1 has alternate values for the following :-

p2pool/network.py
Code:
       SPREAD=72, # blocks
        IDENTIFIER='a5aed03050126d6d'.decode('hex'),
        PREFIX='b6c0601991aa19a3'.decode('hex'),
        P2P_PORT=25396,
        WORKER_PORT=25397,

Would you be able to let us know why you chose those values?  At least that way we can all come to a consensus P2Pool.

I chose SPREAD=90 since from research on the forum I found that this is suppose to be based on the block target time of the altcoin.

bitcoin SPREAD=3 block every 600 seconds           Baseline
litecoin SPREAD=12 block every 150 seconds         600/150=4       4x3=12
bbqcoin SPREAD=30 block every 60 seconds          600/60=10       10x3=30
digitalcoin SPREAD=90 block every 20 seconds       600/20=30       30x3=90

Please correct me if this is wrong!

IDENTIFIER, PREFIX and P2P_PORT are random but have to match from pool to pool to successfully connect. Again, got this from researching on the forum so please let me know if you find something to the contrary. Also, not sure if my values are valid since I just used random 19 digit numbers and converted them to hex.

WORKER_PORT is the port miners will connect to. This can be unique for each pool.


bitcoin SPREAD=3 block every 600 seconds           Baseline
litecoin SPREAD=12 block every 150 seconds         600/150=4       4x3=12
bbqcoin SPREAD=30 block every 60 seconds          600/60=10       10x3=30
digitalcoin SPREAD=90 block every 20 seconds       600/20=30       30x3=90
worldcoin SPREAD=120 block every 15 seconds      600/15=40       40x3=120

Added my spread setting for worldcoin. The guy who really knows this stuff is Narken as he has a release for a lot of altcoins:

sorry i havn't had a chance to connect you your pool yet. i will try to do it later tonight.... for those of you whom are going ot try i suggest making a new pool folder so you don't have to worry about deleting data folder. and for simple upgrade just run the new pool on the same port as your current pool so you wont lose connection for your miners.

edit: i updated my source www.github.com/novaspirit/p2pool
Funny thing is I almost used xsync as the domain name as I own that for other stuff Smiley

What do you think of the SPREAD value? I'm not opposed to changing it. dgc.xpool.net as found 12 blocks so far today. Two appear to be orphans. If SPREAD=30 would reduce that I'm all for it but everything appears to be running so well from both the server and client(miner) side with SPREAD=90.

I think SPREAD=30 came from an early post in this tread where someone had a sample network.py setting. It was a copy of the settings for franko as he missed changing a few parts from franko (it said franko in parts).

I'm sorry but this doesn't seem remotely like a fair launch to me. I was on different coins sometimes a whole day later than this one and had more coins in an hour than I do right now. I now have been throwing 1400 kH/s at this for 2 hours and a 1000 kH/s for an hour before that and have 58 coins to show for it, 5 of those being donated from some nice miner. Part of the fun of a new coin is finding blocks solo, I remember when I found 2 litecoin blocks in 2 days when everyone said it was not worth soloing a few months after it had launched and that was with a single 4890, lol. I know all my settings are correct as I mine all kinds of different coins and have different cgminer folders for each miner. Infact this is my settings except I turn the intensity up if I am not at the computer, my other 2 PCs are running at 18.
So you're saying a fair launch means get you a ton of coins?  Roll Eyes Fair launch means that tons of people get a small amount of coins. Which seems to be the case with this coin.

Dude, did you skip the wallet pic with over 5K in it?

YOu hating this coin so much that u changed your default pic to it?

I just found another github source for P2Pool which includes a
Digitalcoin configuration.

https://github.com/novaspirit/p2pool

Please help create a consensus P2Pool for Digitalcoin.   Smiley

He sent me a PM yesterday saying he was going to try connecting our pools today.

Switching back to SPREAD=30.  90 was a disaster found only two blocks both orphans I think that is just way too short a spread for local pool

Hmmm, 90 seems to be working well for me. Perhaps you need to delete the digitalcoin data directory when you make this change. I have seen "disastrous" results making changes without doing so.

Oh ok thanks. but i was looking for more of a feature like on bitmit where you can show only the items from the specified country but still able to browse the entire site not just those within the search results.

I see a lot of new items being listed on the DGC marketplace which is awesome! but i would like to put a suggestion out there. Since there are so many people listing items that are in different countries, perhaps implementing a filter to sort items from different countries?

That should be easy to check. All that's needed is for two people to try using the matching configuration.

Please someone correct me if I am mistaken.  I am not a Python coder.

I have taken a quick look at the code and from my limited knowledge of Python
it seems that if "IDENTIFIER" and "PREFIX" values in p2pool/networks.py are not equal
between P2Pools, the pools will be working on their own individual shares (a block in P2Pool terms)
and not a collective block distributed amongst ALL P2Pools.  This is where the fragmentation
happens and results in a number of decentralised P2Pools.

So it seems the key here would be for ALL P2Pools to use the same "IDENTIFIER" and
"PREFIX" values.

So taking an example from akabane's kind submission to github,
if ALL P2Pool ops had the following in their p2pool/networks.py,
ALL P2Pools would acknowledge each other and work on the same
share (block)..

Code:
       IDENTIFIER='a5aed03050126d6d'.decode('hex'),
        PREFIX='b6c0601991aa19a3'.decode('hex'),

Please please correct me if I am mistaken...




As an example take a look at the litecoin pool at p2pool.org

The section at the bottom right has 4 peers out and 24 peers in  Grin
