Title: A question to any and all sha-256 pool owners. Post by: philipma1957 on April 24, 2018, 08:02:30 PM Would you consider adding Halong Miners T1 asic boost to your pool?
I helped bitminter with testing and they added asicboost to the pool. I have 1 T1 point at his pool. please comment as to whether you would want to add asicboost. Note i am a gear guy I can only point the gear a T1 for you to test . I am not a coder. Title: Re: A question to any and all sha-256 pool owners. Post by: Shazam!!! on April 24, 2018, 08:41:10 PM You're doing a GREAT service for the Community here Philipma!!! Love it or hate it, asicboost is unavoidable at this point. I believe that it would be in the best interest of EVERY pool, to allow the use of this technology. Not for the sake of following suit with trends or hype, but to allow more consumers, who purchase AB enabled equipment, a bigger field of options. Not to mention, keeping them all in one area, is the first step in Centralization.
With the flood of the Dragonmint alone, not to mention future releases, any Pool operator looking to keep growing with the difficulty, should jump at this!!! Hopefully, we'll see some activity here. Once again, Great support of the Community Philip!!! Thank You!!! Title: Re: A question to any and all sha-256 pool owners.

Actually if enough pool owners adopt it . Bitmain loses its edge of covert asic boost. My position is to be against overt aisc boost is to be for covert asic boost. thus you are helping the largest asdic company there is Bitmain. As to whether asic boost works better we can't tell unless we get enough pools able to do it. -ck solo -ck pooled bitminter slush India btc pool makes 5 pools allowing it.

Like I stated : love it or hate it, it's unavoidable. The point will be missed if this turns into a debate. We have those threads already. Regardless of it's true efficiency, consumers are buying them. The important issue is, offering more available pools to chose from. Title: Re: A question to any and all sha-256 pool owners.

A very generous member of Kano Pool, finally ,received his Dragonmint. He is working with Kano on implementing the code for Kano's Pool. This should add an additional Pool to the list of options.

The miner is locked down - you can't login to it until someone releases the login information - not sure why someone would help make a miner completely against the spirit of opensource.

A "very fast block change system" would make that unlikely. Title: Re: A question to any and all sha-256 pool owners. Post by: krisgt30 on November 13, 2018, 03:31:01 AM I reached out to asicboost directly weeks ago but got no response for our sha coins on bcmonster. The asicboost from bitmain is working just fine on our pools but would definitely like to add for inno and dragonmint compatibility if the help was there.
