Title: [ANN][BTB][P2pool] - BitBar P2Pool - Now that Profitability is at 350% !
Post by: gritter on July 01, 2013, 06:51:03 AM
BitBar P2Pool Server:

Now that profitability of BitBar is so high I decided to setup a P2Pool Server to mine it, its on a fast connection/server.

Server:
http://bitbar.crabdance.com:8336

  • based on baloo_kiev's P2Pool Code from here https://github.com/baloo-kiev/p2pool
  • P2Pool uses a PPLNS based system, so payouts take a while to ramp up
  • BitBar Profitability is currently at 350%+
  • 2% Fee

Mining User: Your BitBar Public Key (NOT Address like on P2Pool of other coins!)
Mining Pass: Anything

cgminer example:
Quote
cgminer --scrypt -o bitbar.crabdance.com:8336 -u yourBitBarPubKey -p x --gpu-threads 1 --queue 0

To create a BitBar Public Key follow these instructions:
In BitBar-QT Client go to Help / Debug Window / Console and type the following into the console, then use the key it creates as your mining user (BitBar P2Pool requires a PubKey instead of a BitBar addresses for worker payouts!)
Quote
getnewpubkey "someaccount"

Tip:
I suggest using Queue=0 and GPU-Threads=1 in cgminer for P2Pools, like in above example (or set while cgminer is running by pressing S and then Q to change queue to 0)

cudaminer example:
Quote
cudaminer -o bitbar.crabdance.com:8336 -u yourBitBarPubKey -p x

cpuminer example:
Quote
minerd -o bitbar.crabdance.com:8336 -u yourBitBarPubKey -p x

I take it this pool is down? I can't connect to it but have no problem connecting to anything else.
