btw. whats about the idea supporting p2p pools somehow..? masternode donation seems quite interesting..

whats evans opinion?  Smiley

As owner of three masternodes I strongly disagree with redistribution of MN income.

Let the market decide whether P2P pool will be used or not - the key is to improve the user experience and make
it accessible to total Linux newbies not to bribe the users to mine there.

 Linux newbies? bribe? say what? ... no way man. In my proposal I merely suggest that a MN owner could choose to contribute and incentivise the use of p2pool. What is wrong with that? Choice, not imposition. I would gladly do it.

 Any serious miner will do p2pool because it is way better and safer and makes the network much more robust. Running a p2pool node, yeah thats a different thing and not for anyone. But without doubt, the best gains come from running and mining from your own node.

 I would gladly give back a few % to the p2pool network. Its decentralised, impossible to 51% attack, impossible to DDoS, no account hacking, no need for logins and 2FA, no bad actors stealing, and without any central authority whatsoever. The only problem is most hobby miners out there dont understand it fully and tend to flip pools or algo's looking for better gains. And the ramp-up really does suck.

 Once you get serious about mining, there is no better experience than p2pool. Payouts just roll without effort, and are statistically better than any central pool. All in all, p2pool is the ultimate solution for ultimate network stability.

didnt see that ... Smiley but thats basically what wallet implementation would mean doesn't it?

Making wallets p2pool nodes themselves = ugly pain in the arse. Enabling wallets to 1-click mine via p2pool nodes = beauty, wonder and joy.

It would probably trigger the Second Coming of Satoshi, to bless Darkcoin for being true to His original vision.

- Found the issue causing "last darksend was too recent"

Mixing should be much faster now.

Thank you yet again Evan--will do asap.

i see the point, but in general the network will gain huge advantages from decentralized mining..
Every coin, including btc, is dominated by huge pools. If drkcoin had primarily p2pminers it would be safer than btc from that view..
(this could affect the value of your investment also Wink )

Yeah it would be a big PR win, a market win, and a huge embarrassment to every other centralised PoW coin.  Cool

I get the added value - would be nice to have another perk but the P2P mining itself should be made more attractive rather than subsidised.

How hard would it be to add the p2pool server software to wallets?



Not entirely trivial. I've thought about it. p2pool is in python and has a lot of deps, official wallet is c++, result would be unwieldy...

I think they are best kept separate for now, but a simple to install (1-click) prepackaged p2pool would be awesome.

Someone could even create a vm drop in image with all the stuff needed, so 'end user' needs only to open specific ports, or enable upnp maybe only.
Not too complicated, and could be run with for example free vmware player on any platform (although, I prefer virtualbox myself).
I would vote against including this in standard wallet.


as far as i read there were following suggestions for p2ppool enlargement:

- implementing p2pmining in the wallet, which seems to be quite difficult since wallet is written in c++ and p2ppool in python
- donations to p2ppool from master nodes
- enforcement (?) of p2pmining
- oneclick installer for p2pmining

imagine, if dark coin network would have more than a half of p2p miners...
this would be a huge step for security and the original idea of decentralization.


Not sue if you saw my edit, but giving users the option in-wallet to mine via their nearest, or a specified p2pool, rather than solo mine, wouldn't be difficult to implement.

Sorry to interrupt all this price talk, but I would like to buy a sweet Darkcoin sticker for my snowboard. Any ideas?

I got one  Grin


Did you pay with darks?? Wink
where can i buy this sticker?

I got it by sending a message to this guy on the snowboarding subreddit offering Die-cut graphics for cheap. Used paypal, shipped quickly.
