Speaking of the DGC pool from the above post, I have a question on one of the blocks found.

Here is a block that we found:

http://dgc.xpool.net:8810/static/share.html#5c38ae808c49af64723e0649169d64f5fd00f44ad2b049eefbefe02eeaebba16

This shows who received payments:

The above show that the 20 DGC was sent to the current miners. 

Then I seen this:

http://dgc.xpool.net:8810/static/share.html#d1c557e8c942f8e5f68e05003d0ed1e0047d664f2db3906188df0b122e2c0843
This looks just like the one above showing the same miner found the block.  But look what we find when we look at the dgc payouts:

None of those are DGC wallet addresses and none of these addresses are on the server mining atm.

This has happened more than once since I have been on this server.

Hi Shallowgas,

The pool uses a PPLNS reward system. Simply put it pays based on the number of shares you submit over a period of time.

To illustrate this take the example of D99erPFYxti2gcT7xTQNgTRrdUtguh7Qka. They started mining on the pool a couple days before you joined. His portion of submitted shares is much greater because of this. Over time your portion of submitted shares will outnumber his (due to your higher hash rate) and your payout will increase accordingly.

Here is a charts showing your payout increasing as your portion of submitted shares increase:



Another miner with 1.5 Mh/s started shortly after you did so they are also increasing their number of submitted shares along with you but at a slightly higher rate due to his higher level of submitted shares:



The effect of both of you starting to submit shares is decreasing the % of shares D99erPFYxti2gcT7xTQNgTRrdUtguh7Qka is providing. The reason his payout is still higher than yours is because of the two days of work he has submitted before you came on board:



You will notice that if you completely stop mining the pool you will continue to get payouts for a couple of days because of the submitted shares you are currently contributing.

Look at DTWPTRSi9HoLh69NPd2fbDWUGHrx1nLdmk for an example of this. He has not been mining for a little while but will continue to get (decreasing) payouts because of the work submitted while he was on the pool.

I hope this illustrates how the payout system works. If you like I can provide links to much more in-depth explanations.

Hi,

I am mining on the DGC P2Pool for nearly 24hrs.

Can you explain how address D99erPFYxti2gcT7xTQNgTRrdUtguh7Qka is receiving 8 coins per block mining at 1.1MH/s and I am receiving only 4 coins per block mining at 1.4MH/s?
My address is DTB4cvmoX2ahqhJJou59pSiEw3aA7D2SM7

Many Thanks.

bitcoind updated to 0.8.3
litecoind updated to 0.6.9.2

Maintenance release to fix a denial-of-service memory exhaustion attack.

Updated Litecoin wallet to 0.6.9.1.

0.6.9.1 is final, pending Gitian build verification by the full Litecoin Dev Team.

The official public release of 0.6.9.1 will commence on Litecoin.org soon.

Bitcoin pool back online!

Hi ckolivas,

Bitcoin will be back later today!

Are you going to be running a bitcoin pool again in the future or does this not belong in the bitcoin pool section any more?

Updated Litecoin wallet to 0.6.9.

0.6.9 reduces the mintxfee by 5x down to 0.02 LTC.

Thanks saber!

Yes, the server is located at the Savvis datacenter in Irvine, CA. It is one of the best datacenters I have seen. Unlike a lot of other pools this one does not share resources in a hosted environment. It has it's own dedicated equipment.

For your question related to distance of your miner to the P2Pool please reference this link and look under section "What matters for good P2Pool results: low latencies":
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=153232.0;all

This web site lists latencies of various BTC and LTC P2Pools:
http://p2pool.hostv.pl/

Notice the ping and GWTL columns. This will give you an idea of some of the better performing P2Pools. Please take note that performance is based off the location of the web site and not your miner so only use it as a general guide. You will have to test latency to the pool from your miner.

The minute a block is found your portion is immediately deposited into your wallet. All the confirmation happen in your own Wallet. The number of confirmations depends on the crytocoin.

Please feel free to ask any more question and I will do my best to answer them.

Great DGC pool.

Couple of questions!

Just to make sure, the main DGC thread lists your server location in Irvine, CA correct?
Does the distance from the server affect anything at all?
Finally, how many confirmations after a block is found?

Changing server to (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time. Restarting pools. Mining should only be interrupted for a few milliseconds. You should not notice any anything

Changed the site menus to optimize space. Looks much better now

Where is the statistic link?

Remember, this is a PPLNS pool so your payout will increase within the first 24 hours.

What's the statistic for 1 hour of mining?
I've a Rig with 1.85 MH/s
