Title: [0 PH/s] www.multipool.in 0% PPLNS [Stratum Only] Multi-currency
Post by: flound1129 on May 03, 2013, 08:32:08 PM
That's right PETAhashes, why not start big?

Currently offering the following coins:
Bitcoin: stratum+tcp://multipool.in:3332/
Litecoin: stratum+tcp://multipool.in:3334/
Terracoin: stratum+tcp://multipool.in:3333/
Feathercoin: stratum+tcp://multipool.in:3337/
Mincoin: stratum+tcp://multipool.in:3339/

Eventually I will lower confirmations to 20 for all currencies.  Need some reserve coins first though.

My eventual vision for this pool is something different than I've seen before.  More details will be forthcoming soon.

Currently PPLNS only but I plan to add a PPS option on the pools once we have generated enough reserves to get through dry spells.

Good luck with your pool!
The front-end of the site could use an upgrade, though, in my opinion.

What changes would you suggest?

Since you link to Vircurex, just a little caveat from the Vircurex accounts page:
Quote
DO NOT use Vircurex addresses for mining purposes. We cannot credit coins generated (instead of being send).

Also, what are MNC? Typo? ;-)

Edit: Got it: http://teksyndicate.com/forum/litecoin/mincoin-become-early-adopter/137741

Any plans for NMC?

I want to set up merged mining but it's not enabled at the moment.

Doesn't really apply, but using pool addresses is still a bad idea, generally.

You mean the above only applies to solo miners?

Not necessarily just solo miners, mining pool software as well.  No end user of a mining pool would need to worry about this.

But it's still a bad idea.

It does impact pools which pay out directly in the coinbase (Eligius). Bter has the same problem. "Generated" coins with no "input" are ignored/lost by those (all?) exchanges, because they don't look at any deposits in that section (which they should).

Right, and I suppose it would impact p2pool users as well, and that's most likely at whom the announcement was targeted.
