Hi fellas!

 I would like to promote the P2Pool!!

 During 30 days, I'll donate a small amount almost everyday to the P2Pool miners!


NOTE: For both Litecoin and Bitcoin P2Pool miners (at a random time during day).



 For the Bitcoin P2Pool miners:

 * In the period 10/02/2012 until 17/03/2012 I'll give 1.5 BTC / day;


 For the Litecoin P2Pool miners:

 * In the period 10/02/2012 until 10/03/2012 I'll give 200 LTC / day;



 My idea is to promote P2Pool technology and its miners...

 If you have any interest and don't know how to join P2Pool, please, read my guide here:

 A Complete Guide to P2Pool - For Ubuntu Linux...:

 Holliday post a quick guide for Windows! Check it out here:

Thanks, BTW you have a strong command of the English language. Keep up the enthusiasm!

will you be sending 1btc to the pool? or 1btc to each of the pools miners? :o

164 users mined for the last block (https://blockexplorer.com/block/0000000000000027aafb3b399eb60be707ceb402259cd4b018c91b4ff41ac5a9). I am pretty sure it's not 1btc each he'll be sending ;)

What happened to common sense around these parts?

LOL ... what do common sense and basic mathematics have to do with mining?

LOL

Just to be clear, I'll run almost every day:

To Bitcoin P2Pool miners:
bitcoind sendmany "" "$(wget -O- http://MY_P2POOL:9332/patron_sendmany?total=1.0)"

To Litecoin P2Pool miners:
litecoind sendmany "" "$(wget -O- http://MY_P@POOL:9327/patron_sendmany?total=200)"

Best!
Thiago

Thank you!! You're very kind!  ^^

I would love to donate more to Bitcoin P2Pool miners but, I don't have enough right now...
Maybe my action inspire more donations to ourselves!  :D

Cheers!
Thiago

i've been learning ubuntu slowly.  once i get a better command of it (or get cgminer to recognize my gpu's) i'l try it out

What has linux to do with p2pool?  ???

It runs it better, same as it runs any server software better than WinBlows from M$. Also, ThiagoCMC has written an excellent Linux guide for P2Pool setup.

I've read it, with the same effort you could probably dial some planets with a Stargate...

I have no problems with cgminer on Windows, it runs fine and installing it and p2pool is much faster

I can help you out... In fact, if you install Ubuntu 11.04 64 bits at your mining rig, and install TeamViewer6, I can set it up for you.  ;)
Including Catalyst, SDK and the latest CGMiner...

Simple:

P2Pool is written in Python.
Python is a native language of Ubuntu, Debian and any other professional Linux distribution.
So, it was build for Linux!
P2Pool for Windows is a workaround for me... lol

You're absolutly right!
And thank you!!! ^_^

Well, good for you! I had all world's problems with Windows (3.11, 95 and 98), so, never used it again... When I tried Windows 7, it frozen in one day of use... So, it is the same crap of the past with new icons...
Did you have any benchmark to compare each other?

98 was 14 years ago...

And i never had a problem with Windows 7.

Never had problems with Windows Vista.

And about XP... dunno, if i had problems, i don't remember.

About benchmarks, i never epic overclocked my 6950 or did experiments

Dats off topic! *flails*

I really dont see how running P2pool with Linux would SomeHow make it run faster than P2Pool running on windows...

I love how mac is sitting all alone and lonely in the corner, being ignored by everybody  ;D

By the way, I had no idea there was a Litecoin P2Pool. Do you need a separate special P2Pool for that, or just point P2Pool to your Litecoin port?

WOW!! I complete forgot one important step of Litecoin P2Pool!!

Please, give a couple minutes to review the guide...

Yes, the Litecoin P2Pool is a separate pool, if you want your P2Pool for both Litecoins and Bitcoins, you must run P2Pool daemon twice.

Sorry!!

Hi!

 The first 200 LTC donation to Litecoin P2Pool subsidy will occur on 2012/10/02 at 14:00 PM -0200
 Great to see Litecoin P2Pool grow!! ~800kH  8)

Cheers!
Thiago

Just started mining both my bitcoins and my litecoins on p2pool about 4 days ago.

THIS IS AWESOME!!!   ;D
Nice move!

Hi!

 I just upgrade the promotion "rules"...

 The Bitcoin prize rise up in 0.50 Bitcents and it will be subdivided in 3 payments of 0.50, 3 times a day.

 The Litecoin prize will be done at a random time during the days.

Cheers!
Thiago

When I wake up I will have received a little more coin then usual. Feels good man

Oh and look!


Marvelous.

Just a great fucking day, pool gen is up, LTC price rose 20-30%, and I recieved .45BTC from mining 14 hours alone at 260MHash/s.

 ;D

Just a last minute update...

I haven't received any payments in the last few days.

They also don't show up here: https://blockexplorer.com/address/1Kz5QaUPDtKrj5SqW5tFkn7WZh8LmQaQi4

What's the cuttoff currently?

First 200 Litecoins donated!!  ^^

Dangit, you made me think I had found a block for a moment. :P

 :P

.01 I believe.  Not entirely sure since I've been above .1 for a while now and still have never seen a 'donation'
Oh well, our pool has been pretty lucky lately and my personal share luck is back to normal now too so I guess I can't complain too much.

First 1.5 Bitcoin donated! aca39f64e4f71f984b9693fe1dbd6dc9361162d94db10b1b814121cf3da44a9f

Enjoin P2Pool technology / approach!!

2.75LTC went to me alone, sweet!

^_^

Holy fuck! That's BTC

:D

I am so glad to see the Litecoin P2Pool grow (from 400kH to 3000kH!) that I'll donate extra 1000 LTCs on sunday (tomorrow)!!!!

Lets make Bitcoin P2Pool reaches 1THash!!!

P2Pool is the future of Bitcoin / Litecoin Mining!!

Enjoy!!

LTC is at 3620kHash/s now, holy fuck!

I love that?!?! Maybe I have influenced a lot of people?! Hope so!!

But I need more work because Bitcoin P2Pool doesn't grow as I expected...

SURPRISE!!! 1000 Litecoins donated to the Litecoin P2Pool subsidy!!  ^_^

Enjoy!!

I missed it  :(

Aaaahhh...  :(

Be ready for the next time (maybe next sunday again)!

Will do! Missed because timezones are off I think, I was still using my computer at 1AM (Around when you sent the LTC out).

Hi Thiago.

Can I suggest you put "total=0.5/0.0001" instead of "total=0.5".  If you put a / and then a number, that changes the smallest amount that goes to any miner.  If you don't, it defaults to 0.1, and anyone whose share would be less gets nothing.

When you're sending such small amounts, only the top few miners in the pool will get anything if you leave the cutoff at the default of 0.1.  (And one lucky other miner will get all the other guys' bitcent fractions in a lump sum, at random, like a lottery).

Check the output of the wget command on its own to see the difference it makes...

Great Idea... I think we should do this again as the pool defiantly needs a boost of hash.

A new p2pool is born =)

My hashing power is not the biggest. Anyone an idea how to promote it a little bit to get some miners?
