Run a node on a Raspberry Pi. It's way more inexpensive than the device you linked to. You can get even get external storage for it.

and how much would you be willing to pay?

how much would you be willing to pay if it could also mine (~200 or 250 or 500 h/s)?

how much would you be willing to pay if it could mine and also ran the pool software (so, you'd have your own private pool)?

how much would u pay if it could run additional decentralized software?

and why ssd?

I don't think the price should exceed 200$, and the "dedicated" means that box should only keep blockchain and run the latest daemon. All other services should run outside the box, as they are able to communicate with daemon over TCP/IP network, aren't they? Perhaps there are security or performance issues in TCP/IP versus shared memory, I don't know. I assume, when running daemon and "service" on the same LAN subnet, it should work OK.

Well yeah, using SSD might be an exaggeration. My own testing showed that starting / exiting daemon on SSD is way faster that on regular drive. So when you need to do some daemon maintenance, SSD should reduce the downtime. In regular operations (in my case, one wallet communicating with daemon Cheesy

), indeed, there is no difference between drive types.

Current map of nodes:

MAP

I'm not sure how accurate that map is. I have been running a full node in Italy now for a little more than a month and it has yet to show on the map.
(yes, it's working, > 30 INC connections)

Could you check your node's IP on this site https://www.iplocation.net/ and tell me which country it reports for "Geolocation data from MaxMind" (the last one from the list) ?

Thanks!

Italy

Hmmm... weird, maybe the DB has no coordinates for it and that's why it's not showing up. If you would like, please PM me your IP and I'll check what's going on (I'm the one running monerohash.com). I'll probably do that tomorrow as I'm goind to bed right now.

I'd like to announce a product request, something like http://bitseed.org/product/core/

Instead of running Monero node on a home PC or VPS, I would prefer a dedicated router-sized device, which consumes less power and has no additional overhead. With built-in updates management, i2p capability and equipped with SSD - that's what I'm looking for )) Hardware developers, can U here that?

New Zealand, India, Spain, and Mexico need some Monero love. Others too of course, but those were obvious to me.

Quite funny, i noticed that i am a Senior Member by now and secondly i just found out that i am the only full node in my country Shocked

Both findings make me kind of proud yeeeaaahhhhh Grin

reminded by that graph that there's no presence in south america.

Well that's kind of sad if you take in consideration the naming of MONERO. Maybe we should host a VPS there....

based on that map,

shhhhhhh

don't tell the chinese en masse about Monero ....yet. Grin

anyone have any testnet XMR they can donate/send to me?

Just do start_mining? The testnet difficulty must be pretty low so you'll get blocks within a few minutes I'd guess. You'll have to wait for them to mature though.

that's what I planned on doing but in the interest of saving time (not sure how many i wanted to mine) as I was waiting for the blockchain to download/sync i'd ask any testnet millionaires

<- That guy volunteered for the PT translation, atm just waiting for the multi-language backend to be ready.

i'l volunteering for a dutch translation and an attempt at a translation to Esperanto Wink

backend would be useful... We could use transifix or something like that.

Transifex was suggested a long time ago. Read fluffypony comments about jekyll to understand some reasons for the delay. Many people have plans that are on hold now until next tagged release and website translations.

Well the strategy should be presence in south america, so we would need a native translation to esperanto

Huh... maybe Spanish would be more useful than Esperanto?

Portuguese and spanish if you want to cover the southern continent of america Cheesy

i thought someone did do a portugese translation .....

This was adapted from a previous one that was outdated. We just need more content to attract the brazucas

Just asked this on the mining thread but wanted to post here as these pages are viewed a lot more than the mining thread.

Has anyone here ever mined with a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B? If so which mining software did you use or is there any support for mining with R-Pi?

Then I got to thinking is mining possible with multiple Pi's running in tandem. So I'm wondering if mining can be done by linking the R-Pi's together with a program like Putty?

Any thoughts, links appreciated.

I just bought a R-Pi with a small case and 3.5" LCD that you mount to the case. Setting up another Node with it as soon as it comes in.

I'm not understanding how you would link them together with Putty. Putty is just an SSH/Telnet/etc client. It's not something like OpenMPI or clustering software.

Pi's don't have integrated AES, so the hash rate is going to be abysmal. Absolutely not worth it in any way.

But let's pretend...

Let's say you had 5000 of them, power is free, and Wolf's modified (non-AES) CPU miner would run within the memory constraints of a Pi. I'd probably do a (i)PXE boot with a standardized image and build one server as a pool. You'd get pseudo-linking/clustering via the pool.

My noob ass knows enough to sound stupid, thanks for the enlightenment

I'm just looking for ways to improve mining and do a little weekend tinkering while I have some time. I am looking forward to the Wolf AMD GPU miner. My 280x's could be pulling more especially after seeing some screen shots of some beta testers that have run it.

For now I will just tinker with setting up my R-Pi as another node help the network out.
