mdude77,  Just a heads up.  Unobtanium now supports merged mining with bitcoin. authpow kicked in at block 600k earlier today.

Uno has a cap of about 600k, active community, stable price and is actively traded on top exchanges. We think it will be a good addition to pools who are doing merged mining.

Thanks,

you need to pretty up your front end a bit. Happy to share some of my code if you like, just ask. Smiley

I'd appreciate a copy - please PM me.

Thanks!

It's on my list. Smiley I assume there's some basic packages out there.  Any tips you can give will help.

thanks.

I started with the nodes web server but have since moved it all off onto a separate server. That way I can do other cool stuff. The front end I have used is the alternate front end from the github link but I've mode quite a few changes and it's all done in div and css now.
Let me know when you are doing it and I can send you some stuff.

nice work mate, I got my little piece of that. I just want to get my stats up and some more drops into the merged wallets (only one hit so far) then i'll send them on to your pay back wallet.

Congrats on the additional miner and keep up the good work.


thanks!

It was up.  Looks like my host is having problems...

My node is back up.  Everything is merge mining except huntercoin.. that one is still downloading.

My node is coming down for maintenance.  I'm not the only there anymore, thank you whoever you are!

I have a lot more memory on the node now, so I'm going to be rebuilding the node to use a 64-bit OS to make use of it.  I'll be modifying the bitcoin config to allow larger blocks and lower transaction values to make blocks more valuable.  I also intend to adding merged mining for Huntercoin, Groupcoin, and Fusioncoin.  As before, all merge mining proceeds get converted to BTC and fed into p2pool for all users to benefit.

I expect my node to be down for most of the weekend.  The longest part will be downloading all the blockchains.  Bitcoin and namecoin get priority, but they'll also take the longest. Smiley

P2pool current hashrate is very small, and now into mining comparison worthwhile.

It's actually higher than it's been.  It'll also get bigger if you join. Smiley

Nowadays with pools having problems and/or questionable continuous bad luck, in my mind, it's the only realistic option.

My pool is back up for the time being.  More work is coming, but it'll likely be at least a day before I start into it.

My node is down for a bit for some maintenance.  No one affected by that except me, but I thought I'd post it just in case someone decided to try. Smiley

Yeah, it confirmed this morning.  Again, thanks for giving back to the community.

I didn't see the threshold discussion, but had tried playing around with the patron_sendmany on my node to see what would happen.  Now that I know about how to set the threshold, it makes a world of difference in the number of addresses receiving part of the donation.

Would you mind explaining/sharing the command you used to change thresholds and send the donations?  Looking at the P2Pool merge mining guide doesn't really explain things other than to say, "To make a donation to everyone use the following..."

Thanks!

Actually it does explain it:

Quote
Note that the amount you donate will be allocated to recent miners in proportion to the amount of work they've done in the last 24 hours or so, but all the miner whose shares of the donated amount are less than 0.01 BTC will have their shares combined into a single amount which is awarded to one of them at random, with the chance of winning this 'lottery' weighted by the miner's recent amount of work done. You can change this 0.01 BTC threshold like this, for example, which says to pay 10 BTC, but to share it amongst more miners that the default, cutting off at 0.001 BTC instead of at 0.01 BTC.

~/src/bitcoin/src/bitcoind sendmany "" "$(GET http://127.0.0.1:9332/patron_sendmany/10/0.001)"

The 0.001 at the end is the key.  I think I ended up putting 4 zeros in there.  I didn't want to drop all the little guys out.  Try pasting the http:// part to your p2pool node to see what the output is.  I kept adding zeros until it looked like I got a lot of users.

Also, GET didn't work for me.  I had to use WGET -O- instead.

Looks like the dust finally confirmed.

Despite the fact that I'm still the only one on my node, I just divvied out the funds.  I had to set the threshold pretty low otherwise only about 6 addresses would get anything.  Most users (myself included) got about dust, and who knows long it'll take to confirm, but it's something. Smiley

Now if more ops would do this it would add up to something.

Thank you for your contribution.  It was definitely dust, and has yet to get a single confirmation.  That, however, is not the point.  The fact that you are giving back to the community is.  As I stated, should my node ever find a block again, I will also donate the proceeds gained from the merge-mined coins.

I just checked out HUC.  Interesting concept - build mining into a game.  I'll look into setting up my node to merge mine it.  Will have to compile the daemon from source (no Qt version for my Mac, and I really don't feel like trying to screw with the code to make one).  I've had nothing but problems trying compile Qt clients - consistently get weird errors.  It's probably something in my environment, but I haven't had the time to figure it out.

I had no problems compiling it.  But wow, it uses a lot of memory on a resource confined VPS.  Now if only I could run it locally ... but I'm bandwidth constrained here. Sad
