T Nelson fixed the solomining bug. Please donate some beers to him if you solomine....
next week i will be setting up a couple more servers ...
could you please pm me your details t-nelson so that i may be able to setup the donation server? ...
so far there are three more that i need to setup ...
- tsiv ( still no contact ) ...
- pfool - have all the details now ...
- t-nelson ...
tanx ...

I've never understood this. Why don't you input their BTC address on a multipool or Nicehash and mine to it? Or if you're really picky and want to differentiate yourself from normal donations, ask them for a new BTC address just for mining.
HAMPSTERWHEEL MINING--
It started as a joke, in this thread, about the time Neoscrypt was really a hot algo. I kept saying I would mine on my "hamster wheel", a 6x 750ti rig, for the code. I did, for a while. Why be so critical? It is another way to donate, and privately. --scryptr

its not only another way - but its a simplified way to donate also ...
- ONE url ... that is easy to remember ( donate-
) instead of a btc address ...
- the url never changes ... even the ports stay the same for the various algos ( even if we add or remove ports ) ...
- if the dev decides to change the btc address for ANY reason ... the donation mining doesnt ... so no messing with the miner addresses for the life of the donation systems ...
- anonymous ... if you want to stay anonymous ... like i do ...
- amalgamated into one worker - no matter how many people mine ... which gives more processing power if miners were to mine all at once ...
the explanations and resons are all there in the thread - as well as the btc addresses - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/a-chainworks-industries-cwi-project-donate-by-mining-dbm-1089744 ... so it is a concentrated base of info ABOUT the devs as well ... at least as much info as they are willing to allow me to put on there ...
which means - with the setup the way it is - when the new multipools and setup is finished - it will make it an easier integration into the granite ecosystem and thefarm integration ...
anyone can donate anyway they like ... i just want to make it an easier way to do so - on a more regular basis ...
there are much more things happening behind the scenes also ... the upgrading of the servers is next - then the upgrade of the stratum proxy software ... and a specialized server for mining ONLY for the devs ...
mostly - its a way of trying to get the mining community together FOR the devs - not just for the USE of the devs products - and to make it as easy as possible to donate by mining ( dbm ) ... possibly even withthe devs coding the addresses INTO the miners for an easy switch to donate to them at the discretion of the miner themselves ... maybe even a command switch -dbm 25 ( donate by mining 25 minuts evenry 7 hours ) that can be added by the MINER and not forced by the dev - to the hardcoded addresses within the miner ...
that way - no hash goes astray - and it is at the miners discretion whether they wish to dbm for the dev and how mich hashrate they are willing to allow for the dev ... in the thread itself - it says that nicehash is CURRENTLY the sole site - but can change anytime ... so that more pools may added to maximize the hashing potential of the donations ... all this is done without the miners themselves fiddling with addresses settings ... just set it all once and your off ...
just ideas ...

Nicehash is anonymous. No one knows who is mining on a BTC address besides Nicehash itself unless you advertise it, same with multipools. I highly doubt devs will ever change their donation address unless they lose their wallet as it's impossible to change all the posts with it.
It seems as though you're trying to take advantage of donating time. Who controls the pool you're talking about? All of this can be done without a specialized pool. This all kinda smells like a business plan..
I in no way, shape, or form would want my miners going through a third parties proxy in lieu of donating directly to a developer.
That aside a voluntary miner fee is a good idea. Just the developers should implement it and it shouldn't go through a third party on the forum. It would be just as easy as adding a mining fee. Just hook whatever algo up to Nicehash or a multipool and then every X number of shares, Y number would go to the pool. Pretty straightforward. It could even be simplified to a % quite easily.
like has been said before - and will say it once more ...
this is another avenue that i believe miners can use ...
your smell has been disjointed for a long time bensam ... so what it 'smells' like to you - is not what you infer that it is ...
never has been - never will be ...
all that aside - it is YOUR choice which way you mine / donate / help ... YOUR CHOICE - and yours alone ...
i have been putting all of this on the line and DOING something about this whole dabacle about donations ... many have donated - one way or another ... most WILL get off their backsides and donate / DO something ... not just bitch about it ...
im astounded how creating another avenue for donation to the devs - has got up your nose ( or under your skin ) so badly ... or its it just that its ME that is DOING and YOU just bitching ( as usual ) ...
its a sevrice that is coming from MY pocket - not yours ... do what you will with your hashrate or donations ... please ... the devs need it ...
i will continue to create and make things happen - whether you 'smell' or not ... i get nothing more than the satisfaction of helping ( yes - HELPING ) the devs in the ways that i can ...
thefarm ( yes - that thing you bitched about many times over ... you know the one - that apparently my 'rich parents' bought me ... yes - that one ) has been mining as donations to devs for a long time - and its VERY fiddly to muck around with configurations and settings ... especially a setup like thefarm ... so i decided to create something easier ( easier - at least in my opinion ) ...
this will be integrated all together when the multipools and systems all come toegther ... this is MY project - MY way of DOING something about giving back to the devs that helped me build thefarm ( i mean - helped my parents buy me thefarm ) - MY direction forward to resolving the donation issue ...
i understand its not for everyone - i really do understand that ... but get your nose out the area your smelling at the moment - and see that there are people here that actually CARE about what happens to the development of the miners and the optimizations alike ... even if it comes at an expense to from the pockets of those doing ...
bottom line is simple ...
its YOUR choice ...
mine or dont mine bensam - it really is your choice ...
nothing sinister here ... im going forward with all the help i can for the devs ... you can continue bitching and leeching off them ...
