Understood I've been paying .0115-.0117

pushing 100 th/s next 4-5 hours anyone else wanna help lol 
I've been trying for 10 days, but it's been a sellers market on both nicehash and westhash since the last difficulty adjustment (mmr too, and betrarigs is a mess). If the expected return is 0.01131 per TH/Day, it only makes sense - for me - to buy at ≥ 5% below that. ..and it looks like it will get 'worse' on Monday, based on current network hash rate. But I hope you solve one, and it's loaded with transaction fees.

Lets hit a block in the next 20 hours whadda ya say ...lol February 12, 2015, 06:52:45 PM
EDIT: 0.02% reject rate after 13 hours. I'd say it's working pretty well.
Great, thanks for the feedback!

I just enabled it now. Thanks for pointing it out that IPv6 wasn't working!
Sweet. I've got my miner pointed at the direct IPv6 address with the backup1 server for failover just in case. I'm always looking for new ways to get some use out of my IPv6 connection; I think I'm using it for a majority of my traffic now.

Oh nice, I'm seeing that now. Did you just add that or has it been enabled for a while?

Assuming I configured things right, this should now work. mmpool.org now as an IPv6 DNS entry. I tested with the direct IPv6 address as well: 2600:3c00::f03c:91ff:fe84:db84. Let me know if there's a problem.

So this is basically just another way of tunneling IPv6 traffic over IPv4? Will you be adding native IPv6 for those of us that already have it?

A while back the pool used to support connecting and mining via cjdns. cjdns is described as:
I've re-enabled this for testing purposes as another backup in case mmpool.org is attacked or down. It should provide better performance than the tor hidden service option but it isn't intended for anonymity.

Cjdns implements an encrypted IPv6 network using public-key cryptography for address allocation and a distributed hash table for routing. This provides near-zero-configuration networking, and prevents many of the security and scalability issues that plague existing networks.

To get running on Linux, follow the directions at the cjdns gitub. Simple steps to get started would be:
For Windows there is a compiled binary in cjdns_windows.zip. Then:
These steps result in an ipv6 network being configured that access the cjdns machines and you'll have an ipv6 address. You should read the cjdns documentation regarding what this means, security, etc.
As mentioned in the steps above you'll need a peer to connect to. If you don't have one you can use the following peer:
Add that snippet to the 'connectTo' section of 'UDPInterface'. It should look like ('aportnumber' will be your own number):
You can test by visiting http://[fcb6:1bb4:2fdc:8452:283c:dd3d:9aee:efca] in the browser. This should give you the pool front page but retrieved over the cjdns network. If that works you can mine using:
It's a bit of an involved process but if anyone tries it out and gets it working I can document it as another alternative mining option in case of DDOS.

$ sudo apt-get install nodejs git build-essential
$ git clone https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns.git cjdns

...add peer to cjdroute.conf...

For Windows there is a compiled binary in cjdns_windows.zip. Then:
- Install the required tun driver by running tap-windows-9.9.2_3.exe
- Copy the cjdroute.exe binary to a directory of your choice
- Create a shortcut on your desktop to 'cmd.exe'
- Right click on the shortcut and choose 'Properties'. Click the 'Shortcut' tab and click 'Advanced'. Make sure 'Run as Administrator' is checked.
- Run the cmd.exe shortcut and change to the directory you put 'cjdroute.exe' in
- Run: cjdroute --genconf >cjdroute.conf
- Edit cjdroute.conf to add peers
- Run: cjdroute --nobg

// Nodes to connect to.

will hit it hard for first 2billion shares then back off a bit

Block 342828 was found by 06ae84f6 earning them an extra 0.09 BTC in transaction fees.

gonna try westhash since phillipma recommends with MMR some rigs work and some dont with mmpool i have some rigs that no matter what blow rejects I will try with diff set to 85000 and hope for the best... they are also the lowest priced
February 09, 2015, 06:40:43 PM
gonna make another push for the block again in about an hour 200th for 4hr's this blocks gotta fall lol
Hash is overpriced (for me) because of the increase in difficulty, but if you're gonna do it, please solve one. http://rentrig.co/rigs/16213
Edit: he has since raised rental hour limits but also the price when using MMR keep an eye out as about 50% of the time i have noticed significant issues hashing to MMPOOL ....as a follow up to the lower post I created an account at westhash and saw great stability as well as low prices purchased hashrate was well represented on poolside numbers no matter the amount 100-1000 th/s

To prevent this from impacting operations in the future I'm going to spin up a couple of extra servers in different locations as fallbacks. This will enable non-tor miners to use these if the main one goes down. I'll post back here when this is done. I hope to have this up in 24-48 hours.
There is now a backup server on backup1.mmpool.org. Through this you can access the web interface of the pool, and do mining via stratum using that as the pool address. You can use this and mmpool.org as addresses anytime and choose whichever gives you the best performance. February 07, 2015, 08:16:14 PM
Thanks for the update and getting the pool back up glad to know it wasn't a malicious attack

i have no idea how to mine with tor do i have to have tor installed on my pc to point miners there?
I don't think you need the Tor browser installed. If you have command line access to cgminer, I think you just use the 'usewithtor' command and the mmpool Tor address.Code:
$ sudo apt-get install tor torsocks
$ usewithtor cgminer -o stratum+tcp://phkttm64gbquasaq.onion:3333 -u username -d p=1000
(Where 1000 should be the difficulty you want to mine at and username should be your pool username).
