Title: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: MONERO.RS on August 31, 2014, 09:46:42 PM ***GIVEAWAY*** 100 XMR!!! (RE-OPENED) Tell us about new feature you'd like to have available on our pool. We will pick 5 best suggestions and award each poster with 20 XMR! Giveaway will probably end within 72h, and please, no spam posts MONERO.RS (http://monero.rs) team is bothered by the lack of innovation and features provided by other XMR pools. Top pools (with the exception of Dwarfpool and Minergate) run stock software with little to no customization. MONERO.RS (http://monero.rs) was launched on August 27th and has since implemented :
New features to be released next week:
Winners:

Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: sandor111 on August 31, 2014, 10:16:49 PM If you can implement it; merged mining with other CryptoNote coins.
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Yanakitu Tenatako on August 31, 2014, 10:41:10 PM Free porn every week, buy tokens on xxx webcam chats and share it with users :)
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Coindgr on August 31, 2014, 11:12:54 PM - An option to pay in BTC, it would be the first cryptonote pool with this
- A graphic with network hashrate and difficulty over time - Merged mining (mentioned by sandor111) would be great Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: ciki022 on September 01, 2014, 07:54:53 AM Mining to exchange address
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: coinits on September 01, 2014, 07:59:53 AM - ability to download my footprint on your site in a nice neat zip
include hashing history block discovery history transaction history - miners who find a block get a bonus - part of your fee or a % of the block total. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: drawingthesun on September 01, 2014, 08:07:53 AM Could be great a multipool for crypto coin. possibility to select the prefered coin (like www.coinmine.pw) This is a good idea gwada, I would get back into mining a little coin if I could use a CryptoNote multipool. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Globb0 on September 01, 2014, 08:17:46 AM Enhanced miners dashboard with explorable history, graphs and stuff.
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: BitcoinForumator on September 01, 2014, 08:30:43 AM MinerGate (.com) type of GUI. With optional CPU or GPU mining or both.
Ease of use is very important. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: wachtwoord on September 01, 2014, 10:24:58 AM 1. An increase in usability of the client. This doesn't need to be a GUI per se, but now people need to run two separate executable before it works. Additionally you need to execute a specific command to save the blockchain before closing the program (or your computer crashing) or you lose all your downloaded blockchain data. Finally, without typing refresh the balance isn't updated based on fresh blockchain data. All of these things can be smoothed down so less skilled people can also run their own wallet (which is extremely important).
2. Cold storage functionality (maybe team up with Armory client): As the amount of money increases cold storage functionality gets more and more important. I see you have implemented a mnemonic of a certain number of words to regenerate your wallet. This is very good, but extending the client with automated printing would be better (low threshold). What's more, you want to be able to save the keys on an offline system as is possible for Bitcoin with Armory. You want to generate the transactions on an online system (with Blockchain), sign them on an offline system and then broadcast them on the online system again. This way the keys never touch a computer which can be compromised and security is increased by a large factor. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: myagui on September 01, 2014, 10:45:49 AM The ability to customize each user's mining payout threshold within a range defined by the pool OP.
This could be set for instance, by mining with a password matching the desired threshold value, and possibly only allowing threshold values greater than the default, not smaller ones. Smaller ones are not meaningful, since the default is already as low as it should be, and you're already doing frequent payout intervals. Advantage for miners: Any users setting a threshold value higher than default, would gain by having a lesser number of TX inputs. While not dust, small payments eventually sum up to make larger transaction sizes by the time one spends those coins, and the time will come when the weight of transactions will correlate directly to transaction fees. Advantage for pool: With some users setting higher payout thresholds, there are fewer payments to execute, and there's an opportunity to save on transaction fees. Savings might not be immediate as the current fee is fixed, but will certainly be an advantage as soon as fees are established as factor of transaction sizes.

2. a line with "my" estimated income on the next block 3. a line with "my" unconfirmed income (this was always missing and almost made me not mine monero at the beginning) 4. (this was already mentioned) an option set the withdraw threshold (in some limits) or to not get coins at all 5. a manual withdraw option I will try to add more ideas inside this post. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6. One thing that drives me off most pools.. the timeouts. You should really try to do better on them. I am a very small miner and until now only one pool manages to almost completely avoid timeouts. I mean this: Code: [2014-09-01 15:53:45] Pool set diff to 6348.01 Later edit: it looks like you guys fixed something there, it is MUCH better! I'd say it's as good as my previous pool. 7. I've seen a great idea on another pool, another coin, quite some months ago: if you came to this pool based on a referral, some 0.5%? 0.05%? of your income goes to the one that gave you the link. Now the more beautiful part: if you didn't come from referral that % goes into a "basket", or if somebody referred more than a max amount, the extra goes into that same "basket". Every week (or month) a drawing is made and one miner (that mined minimum x hours) can win that amount of XMR. I hope I explained it good enough..

Sorry for the bloat (PM me if you wish me to actually delete the original and this post). Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: equipoise on September 01, 2014, 12:01:03 PM There are some good suggestions till now. Here is another one to consider - option for the user to add additional donation address and donation % - you could add the monero dev donation address or a friend address like this:
Code: your_miner -o stratum+tcp://eu.monero.rs:4444 -u YourMoneroAddress -p UniquePassword.AdditionalDonationAddress.DonationPercent Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: shivamchawla on September 01, 2014, 01:31:11 PM Better design
Estimated coins for the block Estimated coins/day Mining to pool address instead of wallet And many other features that mpos provides. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: mmortal03 on September 01, 2014, 01:31:23 PM
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: chup on September 01, 2014, 01:33:01 PM E-mail notification for worker failure after 5-10 minutes (user selectable?) of worker not submitting shares. It will eliminate need to check from time to time (read: all the time) pool dashboard just to check is everything ok with hashrate and workers. Should give relief to pool's web frontend.
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Yanakitu Tenatako on September 01, 2014, 02:43:01 PM Don't change anything, just give me money :)
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: MONERO.RS on September 01, 2014, 02:45:10 PM Great suggestions, everyone. Keep 'em coming!
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: wachtwoord on September 01, 2014, 04:05:03 PM SMS (paid?) notification if your worker hasn't submitted a share to the pool in a certain amount of time. The amount of time can be calculated based on performance in the past, for example 4 standard variations longer then the expected time to the next share (I'm assuming the probability of finding a share within x time follows a normal distribution).
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: rdnkjdi on September 01, 2014, 05:09:39 PM Estimated "Weekly Bitcoin Bill Pay \ Save the Rest" feature.
Auto convert my estimated power costs (should be a calculator of $ + Kw/H). Pool auto cashes out amount of bitcoin I need to pay my electric bill and just keeps the rest in Monero. Would need input of $ per Kw/H, est watts, and bill due date. Have to pull current value of bitcoin to calc how much to cash out - maybe slowly auto convert over the month to get within 5% of this by bill due date. A donation pool towards devs that miners can contribute to and the pool matches. Display a ticking counter somewhere. Monero is underfunded ... don't want the goose that lays the golden eggs to die. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: equipoise on September 01, 2014, 07:25:57 PM SMS (paid?) notification if your worker hasn't submitted a share to the pool in a certain amount of time. The amount of time can be calculated based on performance in the past, for example 4 standard variations longer then the expected time to the next share (I'm assuming the probability of finding a share within x time follows a normal distribution). Isn't it a gamma distribution (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_distribution)?Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Miki on September 01, 2014, 08:03:59 PM Affiliate/Referral comission! My how-to mine $currency instructions and tips get thousands of page views a day. I dont want a check from google, i want referral comission!
Implement a new variable in the syntax, eg. -r $refID. I'd be happy with 1% of the income people i refer to make :) Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: wachtwoord on September 01, 2014, 08:53:19 PM SMS (paid?) notification if your worker hasn't submitted a share to the pool in a certain amount of time.

Isn't it a gamma distribution (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_distribution)?Could be, statistics in uni is getting a bit rusty. If I'm not certain I always fall back on the normal distribution because it's applicable more often than not and if it isn't it usually doesn't deviate too far from the truth.

Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: iCEBREAKER on September 02, 2014, 12:42:52 AM
1) Please make a script to install ^this^ on Debian/Ubuntu, like the normal [git clone git://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero && cd bitmonero && make] one. 2) Don't forget DDOS protection! If your pool is a success, people will try to nuke it from orbit. KoDDOS.com takes BTC, maybe you can get them to take XMR. 3) A Hall of Fame for block solvers is always nice, as are teams. If you are very ambitious, a tech support hot line would be helpful. 4) Be sure to pass on some XMR to the dev fund. You could even make the % user-adjustable. EDIT ONE: 5) Make it hop-proof with PPLNS or whatever. EDIT TWO: 6) 2FA for security. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: wooder on September 02, 2014, 08:50:50 AM 1) user login where the user can deside when the payout happens and other options
2) user and pw are both monero address and payout is split between both adresses 3) top mining addresses on this pool 4) top hashrates on this pool Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: pepperino84 on September 02, 2014, 10:17:37 AM - hashrate diagram for workers ;)
- live profitability for user hashrate in BTC & EUR & USD - logo - weekly winner x% form pool fee low quality sample: https://i.imgur.com/iJp6To1.jpg Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: MONERO.RS on September 02, 2014, 05:17:52 PM 24h left before we choose the best ideas!
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: MalMen on September 02, 2014, 05:38:36 PM Total Hashes Submitted and dificulty in Kh, MH, Gh (the nearest one so we dont have large numbers)
option to take claymore fee or the number choosen of fee to the dev (i will gladly give part of my claymore fee to dev team of monero, they deserve it way mor than claymore in my opinion) Estimate earn by day on front of current hashrate based on last hour hash rate Edit On the graph if there are more than 2 workers show the hashrate of each one separated, so we can compare Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: papa_lazzarou on September 02, 2014, 08:00:49 PM No-fee mining week for the miner with most blocks found in the previous one. Or most shares submitted. Whichever get's you more miners.
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: 24core on September 02, 2014, 08:52:22 PM The challenge with most of these sites is :-
Should we create a login so we can remember your address, then we can you your stat's etc.. The solution is quite simple just have box at the top of the screen that allows you to enter your address. Then store the address in a cookie. This way you don't have to re-enter your address every do dam time you want to check your stat's Also you can create quick links to additional functionally as and when it is added. To extend this model further you could create light-weight settings that stored in the cookies. You delete your cookies you start again!! You can then offer full login for those people who their settings stored on the server so they get the same experience on multiple channels. This framework would allow all the great features to be added appropriately to the different types of logins(lightweight and full). Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Globb0 on September 02, 2014, 08:59:54 PM Random miner bonuses.
No fees happy hours Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: MONERO.RS on September 03, 2014, 11:59:41 AM Thanks for all the input everyone! We will now be picking winners for the giveaway one at a time.

Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: MONERO.RS on September 07, 2014, 09:22:07 PM We are unable to pick the final winner for the giveway. While we have read all entries, there are numerous that suggest features that are already implemented into the pool. We cannot pick these, therefore we are re-opening the giveaway for the last 20 XMR. Good luck!
Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: myagui on September 07, 2014, 10:25:06 PM I can't ever get enough Moneros, so here's a couple more:
Purely Cosmetic: Add a theme feature to the pool website, so that one can pick at minimum between the standard/bright theme and a dark one, much better for viewing during night time or in a dark setting. Informational: Add a "Resources" page containing the various points of interest for the Monero community, containing links to the Monero reddit, the various discussion threads for Monero, links to the IRC channels, available exchanges, block explorer, and so on. Functional: Add a "Ping-Me" link/button to each of the stratum servers available, so as to assist a prospect miner with the decision of picking the pool (this feature would check latency from host <> pool, and post results). A loyalty incentive: Pick a random winner of a certain XMR bonus at the Pool OP's discretion, from the set of miners that have been active/mining every single day of the period in question. The loyalty range and the XMR bonus could be whatever the pool op decides. An example could be: From the group of miners that have been active over the last week, and only those that were at all times connected/mining (say, maximum no-shares or disconnected time of 4 hours for example), take a random pick and give the lucky miner a 2 XMR bonus. The winner from a previous award would not be excluded at the next period, as the point is really to promote loyalty and prevent pool hopping. That's it. I'll edit this post if I can think of anything else. ~ Myagui Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: sandor111 on September 07, 2014, 10:59:55 PM We are unable to pick the final winner for the giveway.

Just give it to the devs fund, there is not much to be done with a pool anyway, I'm glad you didn't implemented registration since its both annoying and security issue. I agree, the devs have a rocky road ahead, they need it most...

Ohwell.... Congrats to the winners. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway Post by: Miki on September 08, 2014, 04:01:49 PM +1 for the dev fund

Your pool is very innovative amongst the competition out there. All of the ideas here are positive, but giving back the the dev's is paramount for the longevity of XMR. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: MONERO.RS on September 09, 2014, 02:44:11 PM I can't ever get enough Moneros, so here's a couple more: Purely Cosmetic: Add a theme feature to the pool website, so that one can pick at minimum between the standard/bright theme and a dark one, much better for viewing during night time or in a dark setting. Informational: Add a "Resources" page containing the various points of interest for the Monero community, containing links to the Monero reddit, the various discussion threads for Monero, links to the IRC channels, available exchanges, block explorer, and so on. Functional: Add a "Ping-Me" link/button to each of the stratum servers available, so as to assist a prospect miner with the decision of picking the pool (this feature would check latency from host <> pool, and post results). A loyalty incentive: Pick a random winner of a certain XMR bonus at the Pool OP's discretion, from the set of miners that have been active/mining every single day of the period in question. The loyalty range and the XMR bonus could be whatever the pool op decides. An example could be: From the group of miners that have been active over the last week, and only those that were at all times connected/mining (say, maximum no-shares or disconnected time of 4 hours for example), take a random pick and give the lucky miner a 2 XMR bonus. The winner from a previous award would not be excluded at the next period, as the point is really to promote loyalty and prevent pool hopping. That's it. I'll edit this post if I can think of anything else. ~ Myagui Great suggestions, thank you! Donating the remaining 20 XMR to Dev funds is certainly not a bad idea, we're still thinking about it. Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: myagui on September 09, 2014, 03:09:10 PM Well, if you'd consider one of my additional suggestions as a possible winner, I hereby pledge that the award would be split with half going towards the monero dev team (just let me do it for a better spot in the hall of fame ;D)
Cheers! ~ Myagui Edit: I'm proposing half and not the entire award, for the simple fact that it was not easy to come up with those suggestions, damn hard work I tell ya! :) Title: Re: MONERO.RS 100 XMR Giveaway (RE-OPENED) Post by: MONERO.RS on September 12, 2014, 03:49:47 PM For the fifth and last winner, we decided to split the reward. half (10 XMR) goes to myagui and the other half goes to XMR Dev fund.
