Title: [ANN] First Bytecoin Mining Pool | 2% Fee
Post by: Gerco on April 02, 2013, 09:21:48 PM
Like every sane individual, I believe in Bytecoin! Bytecoin is the future and is going to overtake Bitcoin due to it's enourmous list of vastly superior features (which will be determined and listed later).

Come mine at my pool here: http://radon.gdries.nl:6327/ and make some BTE before someone starts dedicating his Avalon's spare cycles to a 51% attack. We need to protect our coin (and become Bytecoin Millionaires)!

Pool address: http://radon.gdries.nl:6327
Username: your BTE payout address
Password: 1

I'm running a modified version of p2pool software but there are no other nodes alive at the moment...

Happy mining!

A large amount of hashing power has just been added to the pool (power tripled over the last few minutes) and the fee calculation seems to be getting confused. I set the fee to 2%, but the fee I'm getting is sometimes much more. Perhaps it's better to relax the mining power a bit to keep the pool fees resonable?

I restarted the pool and set the fee to 1%. Hopefully the fees will return to normal now.

How do I get this setup? Do I have to change the bytecoin.conf? Or do I leave it be and enter details into guiminer? And what do I put for the port if I just use guiminer? I keep getting told Valueerror: need more than 1 value to unpack

Thanks a ton in advance for the help

The port number is 6327.

I'm mining with 1 MH/s, you think I'll be able to get a share?

Those without payouts, check if you are mentioned on this page:

http://radon.gdries.nl:6327/static/graphs.html?Day

That should contain anyone that submitted at least one share and a breakdown of whether that was good or bad. (Possibly only since the last pool restart, not sure about that.)

PM me your address, I'll check the logs for your address. Must be something weird going on. I take it you also have not received any BTE?

payments are not instant. you may get shares and you will get paid for those shares many blocks found later, when it's your turn. the list on which you are looking at is not showing who is owed how much but it just shows who will be paid in next round.

is it either that or something really wierd going on.

It seems that some people who have gotten shares are not getting their payment.
I've gotten about 10 shares, no payments :(

I'll be the first to admit that I have no idea what I'm doing with this pool software. I hacked it together and it appeared to work right at the beginning. That said, people are receiving their payouts but I noticed there can be a significant delay. You may not get paid in the block that you helped solve, it may take several hours for that to happen.

I don't know how p2pool keeps track of shares, but it does remember that you solved shares and people are receiving payouts even after they stopped mining for the pool based on the shares they solved hours ago.

If you think you're not getting paid, do these things:
1. Check http://radon.gdries.nl:6327/static/graphs.html?Day to see if you are mentioned somewhere. If so, you will get paid, it may take a while though.
2. If you are not on that list, wait 5 minutes and check again. The list doesn't refresh in real time.
3. If you are still not finding your address anywhere, stop mining and wait a few hours. If you're still not getting paid, something is probably wrong.

I've checked the logs for some people and noticed that their addresses are nowhere to be found in logs or data files. When that happens, there really isn't anything I can do about it. I don't know enough about p2pool to do much other than that.

Lets just hope that someone starts up a non-experimental pool soon. I don't have the time or patience to become a pool operator, this is just an experiment for me.

[edit]
The source code for the modified version of p2pool is here: https://github.com/gerco/p2pool
Do send me a pull request when improvements are made, please :)

I cleared the logs recently, so I don't know about before an hour ago, but in the current logs and datafiles, that address is not mentioned anywhere. If you mined them recently, wait. If not, perhaps your miner is incompatible?

it was about 12-24 hour ago, but don't worry, i mined also with two other addresses without a problem.

Same here. I have no record of that address ever having been used in any of the pool's datafiles. There is obviously something going on that I don't understand, how else could it be that shares are being found, but I don't see any mention of those miners?? Anyone have this issue with p2pool before?

If anyone could spare a bytecoin or two to get me started that would be awesome.

Well, I'm stopping mining at 576 shares, last one accepted at 8:41:00AM, until I can confirm that I'm going to receive my payout. Can someone inform me how to start solo mining BTE?


Title: Re: [ANN] First Bytecoin Mining Pool | 2% Fee
Post by: Gerco on April 04, 2013, 11:37:35 PM
People over in the announcement thread for bytecoin have found out that GUIMiner just doesn't' work with p2pool (or bytecoin, but more likely the pool). If you are getting some authentication error and guiminer, it's not working.

Apparently, GUIMiner is incorrectly reporting shares or is doing something else p2pool doesn't like and you will not receive a payout (whether those shares are contributing is unclear at this point, I don't get any information from anyone using GUIMiner in my log files so I cannot confirm or deny any of this.)

[edit]
As of now, this pool donates the 2% fee to the faucet. Happy mining!

seems to be working, small amount of coin in my bytecoin wallet, with more still listed as "immature" though

Looking at my transactions, the pool pays out small amount every 10 to 15 mins approx, these in various states of being confirmed
