Title: [LTC][Pool][0.5% P2Pool] rpi-pool.tk
Post by: narayan on February 08, 2013, 03:45:54 PM
Due to the scope of this project increasing rapidly with future ideas. I've decided to put this on hold until further planning is implemented.

I'd like to introduce, what I believe to be the first public P2Pool running on a Raspberry PI. The raspberry pi has been tweaked to handle running P2Pool and testing thus far has proven it to be stable.

You can point your miners to 87.194.166.217:9327 (you can use rpi-pool.tk:9327 but the plan is to get a decent domain) using your LTC address as your username and anything for the password.

Current Stats: 08/02/2013 13:58GMT

Pool rate: 38.9MH/s (21% DOA+orphan) Share difficulty: 0.0695

Node uptime: 1.140 days Peers: 6 out, 13 in

Local rate: 37.5kH/s (15% DOA) Expected time to share: 2.21 hours

Shares: 5 total (0 orphaned, 1 dead) Efficiency: 101.3%

Great idea - did you change anything to get it to work on the RPi?  I'd mine there but I have p2pool set-up locally.

There was another pool that was going to use p2pool as the backend and had promised code at github.  I don't think it ever occurred - but sure simplecoin's old code could be adapted.

I didnt change anything within P2Pool to get it to work, but a few tweaks to litecoin and a fair few to the pi!

Fairly new around here, so not sure what the simplecoin project was, a frontend? Either way im building my own as this is just one part of a much bigger project.

Considering the really low overheads that a RPI brings, the fee has been decided as a permanent 0.5%.
