please note isr-il.zapto.org p2pool is going down for now
also the p2pool node scanner
for now i change the dynamic dns to point to one of the other p2pools. hopefully the miners will be pointed to the other pool and not lose much mining time
thanks for 0 coin donations (not related for shutting down)
i just need to reboot to other OS for awhile from time to time
if you can get me access to a VPS in Israel i can move it there
i am moving the dynamic dns to point to 84.111.129.84
which seems stable.. but it have 2% fee (i used 0% to support small miners)
thnx
Hey.
I'm the owner of P2Pool-IL (
http://84.111.129.84:1948)
I've changed the fee to 1% a month ago, but I didn't restart the server since, so it's still 2% like it was in the testing period.
I'm using a 1500$ dedicated server in Israel that does only 1 job - being a stable ISR p2p pool. No other pools or websites on it.
I promise that I'm not making any profit from this 1-2% fee (unless ISR price will go up at least by 10000%)
I'm doing this only to support ISR, and to give the miners a local stable option for mining,
when their international internet connection is slow (99.9% of the time in Israel).
The bigger problem is that the Israeli's summer is near and I'll have to spend another 1K$ (at least) during the next months to cool the server,
and I'm not sure I can afford this kind of expense.
So I'll probably point it to isr-il.zapto.org soon
when the heat hits.
I also want to share something:
I got an offer from the dev to join the isracoin team a few weeks ago.
I wasn't sure about this project then, about the team's dedication to its success, So I didn't gave any positive answer then.
With every day that passes by, I see more clearly that the the team is very dedicated and making a huge progress.
I already managing the pool and helping a few hours a day on the official local isracoin forum + by mail,skype and phone to the local isracoin community.
I'm really thinking about taking it to the next level, and helping the team full time in the coming events (the airdrop, implementation in businesses...)
Today I can say that if all goes according to plans, this project is going to be the next big revolution in Israel, And I can't see myself not being a big part of it.
What are you guys thinking?
