uNOMP's github says this:

Development stopped and is now unsupported. The node.js version is being deprecated in October 2016.

If uNOMP is now unsupported, what is the de-facto software for pool development nowadays?

Props to OP for these video tutorials by the way, excellent step-by-step process Smiley

Mine at Jonny's Pool
You need some way to attract miners to your pool.  That's what it all boils down to.  The more miners you convince to hash with you, the more coin you can make as a pool operator.  The problem is that the vast majority of the hash rate belongs to China.  Chinese pools represent over 75% of the network.  They continue to grow because that's where so much gear is produced and hosted.  Cheap all around costs mean higher profits from mining operations.

Look at the non-Chinese pools distribution for the past 3 months...

Slush - about 6.16% of the network
Kano - about 2.35% of the network
Eligius - about 0.12%
Bitminter - about 0.12%

Believe me, if I were running a pool for profit, I'd have closed it down a long time ago Smiley

Can you make a mining pool and profit without mining yourself?
Is it possible?  Yes.  Is it likely?  No.

To make money from running a pool (not including any advertisement or non-mining revenue like donations it might generate), you need to charge fees.  You then need to get a whole lot of miners hashing on your pool.

Here's an example.  Let's say you create a pool and charge 1% fees to your miners.  Let's also assume you manage to get 1PH/s of hashing power pointed to your pool.  Right now, that would expect to earn you about 0.009915BTC per day (or ~$6.50).

Let's use a real-world example.  Kano's pool charges miners 0.9% fee.  His pool has about 28PH/s of hashing power currently.  Expectations are that he'd make 0.24993BTC per day (roughly ~ $164.50).

Sure, it looks like easy money, right?  Good luck!  I've been running my pool for nearly a year and average about 150TH.  That's a drop in the ocean, especially considering about half of that is my own mining hardware.  I have a 0.5% fee.  Therefore, my current expected earnings per day from the pool alone is 0.0007435BTC a day (or roughly ~ $0.49).  That's less than $15 a month, which doesn't even come close to covering the costs of running the pool.
So how do you bring miners to your pool.. is all advertising  strategy and fees?  what about websites that list your pool( like a directory
) is there such a thing and do they charge as well? I am very green in this topic so please excuse my ignorance .  Wink

Both of those (bfgminer and cgminer) are software that interact with your mining hardware (like Antminer S7 or Avalon 6).  Also, are you trying to mine Litecoin?  You're in the wrong forum... you'd need to head on over to the alt coin area: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0

I am using BFGminer since I couldnt find any downloads to the cgminer, I think this is the log(I didnt add everything, because it would be so long, but it seems it has stopped up here). Also when I do a change in the folders, does it update automatically or do I have to do it in a way?

If everyone who mined had their own pool, who would mine to all the pools?
Hierarchical Pools - we must go deeper.

Looks like what I try to find out.
I'm not sure to understand...

I have a few machines and whenever I want to change a pool I need to apply it on all the machines manually...
I thought that a personal mining pool with all my devices connected to it would simplify if I would need to only change the setting on this personal pool... And this personal pool would of course be ONLY a bridge connected to another pool which would be the real one (meaning the personal one would only be an interface allowing me to avoid to lose hours of change of settings (I have 5 different kind of model of miners... so it takes a while to change settings as I need to do it manually in all machines)).

Is what you both talk about would allow me to solve my problem?
Or is there another way for me to do it?

Thanks Wink

I must say these videos are very informing. To be able to get it to work on a local network is a breeze the mail video I followed and it isn't working at the time. I think if he did make some more tutorials that he may just get some more donations for giving us people his time. It also helps the networks too.

Wished I knew what was going on with the email smtp. I did open ports 25 on the windows and the host and forwarded the gateway. Baffles me and has me piping hot. Want to get my coins off. I also want to add more pools but yet to that same interface. Any help with these would be awesome

o/t (unless OP plans on a guide for it at some point), and not quite 'C' - being C#, but have you checked out Coinium?

Honestly, I expected in the last year that somebody would write a C implementation of a pool WITH stratum.

My personal opinion of slush's implementation(in Python) of stratum is....it sucks. I and many others have read his stratum documentation and it's lacking, one needs to read and understand the python code to implement this in anything else.

I've been honestly tempted to write this in C, but there just isn't enough time.

What would the min requirements needed for a server needed to run on. I have a spare system doing nothing with 500GB hard drive on it x4 amd 3.8Ghz

Does everything need to be done in Linux or can a pool be made for Windows etc???

The easiest way is just to use a windows system running VMware or VirtualBox. The system specs you've provided seem good, just remember that you'll need enough RAM for the windows machine as well as the linux machine. I've found that if you have less than 1gb of RAM on the linux machine it's quite difficult to compile the wallet (ie you get lots of errors)

I have a couple of HP Proliant Servers Gen8 with 96 GB memory  each laying around in my study room doing nothing  but it run on Windows server OS.  I am not much of a Linux . Can you create the video utilizing Windows.

It's just in a virtual machine which runs the linux OS.

i checked the git, and shows [[MOVED] Removed include and templates from public [TESTING]]

any idea if we need to do any extra step?

This is becase of the new directory structure in the MPOS software on github.

I've update the tutorial on youtube, but essentially you just need to change the command to conform to the new directory structure so do:

is it possible to make a pool on an windows based server?
You could probably make MPOS work under a VM, but CoiniumServ might also be of interest to you.  Note that it's only the server side, not the public-facing web side (MPOS is pretty much a turnkey solution, offering all of it neatly packaged together).
I can't really think of a good reason to use a Windows-based server for this, though, unless it's all you have available to you for some reason Smiley

If you only have a windows machine your best bet is to run a VMWare (like I have in this video) and have the network set to bridged mode, then just forward ports 80, and the worker port to the local IP of that virtual machine. Downside is that the host machine (windows) has to stay on all the time.

You could probably make MPOS work under a VM, but CoiniumServ might also be of interest to you.  Note that it's only the server side, not the public-facing web side (MPOS is pretty much a turnkey solution, offering all of it neatly packaged together).
I can't really think of a good reason to use a Windows-based server for this, though, unless it's all you have available to you for some reason Smiley

Hi Guys,

After lots of fun making my own pools over the last few months I thought I would make a series of video tutorials which essentially just runs through the MPOS quick start guide with a few tips and tricks along the way.
I've broke it into 3 parts and it's a walk through on getting yourself started on making a pool. Hopefully this will mean more pools which means some more competition.

I've used the relatively new guncoin as my practice coin for this video but obviously this could easily be modified for any scrypt based altcoin, or quark, etc

Thanks for watching Cheesy
