long story short: if it's GPL, you can't close source it, unless you have written permission by all the authors (they are relicensing it for you).

+1 ... That is what I said all along, only in a nice article Grin

The ypool version was open sourced and jh00 was the first to modify the launch miner to much greater efficiency (opensource), which dga then modified and opensourced after a short testing phase. And yes it goes without saying any pool with over 50% it would be beneficial if they took limits to help spread the hash around.

You can use any miner on RiePool!
And enough with the nonsense, please!

Nonsense how lol?

I don't see it as nonsense as well. Simba84 you are violating a license that is a fact.

I would suggest you open source the updated version of the miner so it can be used on any pool and introduce a fee for doing so. Like 1% of the hashpower goes to your pool or 1% of the earnings go to you (not sure if the stratum protocol actually allows the later).

My miner it's completely different that dga's xptminer so I'm not violating any licenses!?!

I't's developed by me and this is fact!

Maybe I was wrong from the beginning to say "optimized version".... but not dwell on small and insignificant details...

P.S. Stratum protocol don't allow developer or others forms of fees

Well for sure you are in violation of (probably multiple) licenses. For starters the stratum mining protocol itself (client or server) ins under GNU GPL v3. Have a look here https://github.com/slush0/stratum-mining/blob/master/LICENSE

From XpoolX HomePage...

.... - Improved the code on the stratum servers so now it will be faster doing calculations ....

Then this represents no problem since it's open source code Huh

If you want to be picky then we say all things as they are!

I'm sure XpoolX can provide us with a patch to download from the pool site. XpoolX, any comments?

I asked gatra to update it at github a month or two ago with the improvements and DDoS protection

BTW there are A LOT of forms to implement fees in stratum protocol, simba

I don't know. dga's stratum miner and xptMiner 2.0 doesn't support fees.

Being such a extremely good coder re-implementing an entire miner client incl. stratum protocol support in assembler in a few months, I guess getting fees supported for stratum or a partial hash-power redirect (if done that myself in a stratum proxy, it is not that hard) would be an estimated effort of a few days if not only hours for you.
So go ahead and please do it or open source your changes to the miner you illegally license.

Absolutely correct, every pool should stop accepting new miners (not users) as soon as they have 49 % hash power of the network for longer than 100 blocks (just a number taken out of thin air, but 100 blocks seem reasonably to me).

Currently XpoolX should start doing that according to the current state of affairs:

I guess both admins xpoolx and simba84 get onto it, so we can settle at least this topic for now.

......there is no way of knowing if it really increases the chance of finding blocks. Its entirely possible it is simply accepting shares that are not really valid solutions.....

WTF???

The miner has been completely rewritten by me and many parts of the algorithm code have been replaced by Assembly code through the use of 64-bit registers.

I worked months to develop the NEW miner and I repeat for the last time: everyone is free to do what he wants, so....

So you don't want to share the code that is entirely your choice but would you not consider disabling new accounts while your pool has greater than 50% of the network hashrate in order to further decentralize the ric network?

Wait a moment guys... look now who is solving 71% of the blocks... XpoolX

So now tell also that administrator please!

But what you have against me? Huh

When there was only ypool not had all these problems....

Hello Pool Admins what about my request of explanation?

Hi, I'd like to comment that a test of 30 minutes is too short to get significative data. Also, shares per second is a good measure but if you don't trust the mining software or the pool the real measure you have to compare is RIC mined per day (or your preferred unit of time), that should tell you which are the best miner and pool to use.
