Any updates on the topic ? Is anybody working on it ?
i hope they will update it, or someone pick it up since this is really important! Live in hope, die in despair! --- It will never happen. The developers want BTC to get mainstream acceptance. The major issue that Governments and institutions have is the perceived anonymous nature of the BTC system. Therefore the developers will not countenance the idea of increased anonymity, perceived or otherwise. Forget the word anonymous, it has all sorts of negative implications. What we want is privacy, and privacy in our transactions is what we are talking about here. We obviously have to do it ourselves. Therefore start a Topic, find an Escrow holder, start a Bounty for a viable but entirely separate Privacy patch to be developed. Who is interested?? Establish an Escrow and I pledge 10BTC The reason this isn't included in the main client is because it is hard to maintain, and provides very little real benefit in reality. This has been discussed at length in this very thread. By all means, please, please! find someone to take charge of this. But take your bullshit conspiracy theories elsewhere, none of the devs are excluding this to gain favor with "the man". In answer to your question :- “What the fuck is wrong with you? What makes you bring this kind of shit here?” This is what makes me bring this shit here! http://www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/pdf/other/virtualcurrencyschemes201210en.pdfThen I can see you have already seen it but others may not have. So here it is https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=121271.0It's very interesting that you immediately take it that I inferred conspiracy and defend your perception abusively. Makes one wonder exactly why a perceived inference of conspiracy would elicit such a abusive response from Bitcoin Foundation-Life Member. In short what I attempted to convey was. Viewed realistically there is no benefit to BTC as a entity in increasing the level of anonymity. In fact it may be detrimental because the level of anonymity is already a major issue with Regulators. Don't take my word for it on the anonymity issue, read the ECB document, ECB is concerned, all the Central Banks will have exactly the same opinion. It is not a conspiracy, it is common sense. It is called not making matters worse! I don't for one minute think that the developers are as inept as you seem willing to portray. If they saw it as a beneficial priority, they would develop a solution that was maintainable and offered better privacy. It seems it is simply not a priority. Why is it not a priority? see the paragraph above. This topic currently has ~13886 views it is about the fourth most viewed topic on this Alternative Clients board. That indicates that this is a matter of concern for many. I would guess that once more people read the recent ECB document and start to fully understand the possible implications there will be a great deal more concern. Now, as for “the man” as you so quaintly put it, “the man” may be unable to shut BTC down in a single stroke but “the man” can make it so God-damn long term difficult that BTC will become nonviable. Don't try to tell me the developers are not watching “the man” According to the ECB document Gavin Andresen has an “invite” from the CIA to brief them regarding BTC. But if you say so, no, no, the developers are not watching “the man” This is the Core Developer “invited” to brief the CIA. Now, get real, if you are going to deny something, you have to make it at least plausible. holy shit totally paranoid and talking stuff without proof for it? wheres the troll flag  anyway, ignored and b2t. @flatfly: electrum client is someway about trust, trust is bad! @all: ppl who need this dont really need it per GUI, a patch for bitcoind should be fine for everyone i guess? |

yey just 2 blocks in 1 minute  wtf? shut the hell up p2pminers are unionized, if they hear you talking about luck they'll take the week off. lol why should they |

you dont have to compile p2pool, its written in python. 2. + 3. yes put bitcoind and p2pool on a other pc and connect from the RPI to it. this is not a stupid idea in case u want to have the miners outdoors, so u can have ur pc inside and the RPI + ASIC outside  Doh - I knew about Python. But if I do try to run everything on the RaspPi, I will also have to run bitcoin also right? I will try it unless someone says it's crazy, but it would seem that it might be a bad idea. (No HD for blockchain storage, only SD card. Will this be too slow? Will 256MB of main memory be too small? Will the newer 512MB be too small?) Does anyone have input for this part? you can run p2pool on rpi and bitcoind somewhere else, this works. my bitcoind uses 168mB atm and p2pool 234mB so u would need the newer one (version B). as i said i recommend u to run p2pool and bitcoind somewhere else. |

Is it possible and reasonable to run p2pool in a Raspberry Pi? As I understand it, to run p2pool, you also need to run the bitcoin client to get the blockchain. Here's my situation:
I'm currently running a BFL (FPGA) Single using cgminer on a RaspPi. I do not use p2pool because of BFL's way of handling shares is not efficient with p2pool.
In the near future (hopefully), I will have 2 ASIC units that I would like to run on p2pool and I would like to use the RaspPi for this also. So, although I can compile the source for p2pool and the bitcoin client, I am not sure if the RaspPi will be able to effectively run bitcoin.
1) Has anyone successfully run p2pool on a RaspPi?
2) Is there a way to mine on the p2pool without running p2pool on the mining machine?
3) Could I run the bitcoin client and p2pool on another computer then have my RaspPi w/ ASICs "point" to the other computer? (Seems like a stupid idea. At that point, I should just discard the RaspPi and simply mine on the computer.)
4) Are there trusted nodes on the network that are running p2pool that I could point my RaspPi to?
Unrelated questions: Does p2pool support stratum? If not, will it soon or how will p2pool deal with the high hash rate of ASICs?
you dont have to compile p2pool, its written in python. 2. + 3. yes put bitcoind and p2pool on a other pc and connect from the RPI to it. this is not a stupid idea in case u want to have the miners outdoors, so u can have ur pc inside and the RPI + ASIC outside 4. search for the p2pool node list. but this is rather a bad idea due to latency, running it locally (or in your network) is the best idea. no p2pool does not support stratum nor GBT yet, as far as i "know" the dev of p2pool, as soon ASIC comes out there will be a simple solution. stratum/GBT isnt good for p2pool anyways since the ~10 second Longpolls. I think hes going to implement a higher Diff Share system (the one already implemented isnt complete yet). greetings |

Added "super scamcoin" option that will allow to take away 15% of scamcoins in existence.
awesome |

I followed the steps for installing dwmingw and nothing appears when I click on the icon. After installing it, programs crashing will give you an option to debug. I ran bfgminer, it crashed and nothing showed up for a debug. What if you run it at a commandprompt with bfgminer -T -DIt crashes and goes to the windows close program or look for solution box. It should still print out some debug info first...? I don't see a debug file. If there is what is the name of it. luke why helping him? scammer flaged |

Growing 86% on v8 right now. Hardfork is because we gonna have new feature: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=18313.msg1280137#msg1280137Transaction preforwarding Transactions that you're mining are sent to peers before you get a share, so any block solution you find can be broadcast virtually instantaneously. This could theoretically get our invalid block rate below any other pool's thanks to our large network of nodes. gonna take some time for the others to switch... |

i just joined this pool. i'm already feeling good vibes from it. i appreciate the work on the implementation
well we are unlucky atm  |
|
|
|
|
this is still a problem...
|
|
|
|
nope
2bad. I've just updated the p2pool client to v8.2 still worth it, soon there will be less orphans |
|
|

This is a great idea for new Scamcoin 3.0
hahaha |

gaise pls, it's just botnets.
Anyways I deleted it. Everyone do as you please.... As long as you downloaded it through the link at the top of the thread, yer fine... It has been included with malware so the botnet operator can use other people's computers to mine. That's why cgminer and minerd got tagged by the virus scanners. It isn't a virus itself, it was just the payload, but the scanner companies don't really care about that. They aren't as thorough as they used to be. >shrugs< -- Smoov Ok I'm confused here. I am to allow someone access to my computer's hashing power? Am I missing something here? is this how this pool works? *scratching head no you do miss understand him. Botnet Operators are deploying this binary among their victims/zombies to mine BTC for them, therefore the companys to flag it as "virus". |

Can anyone put my anxiety at ease here. I dl the new cpuminer and this is what came up after the 4th hash  I trust spybot and it never failed me to date. I know some things can be accidentally added to DB's However this has never come up with these miners. This one is the first miner program that has done this. check the MD5 from the github dowload and compare it with urs, if its the same then its a false positive, otherwise u maybe got a problem I really don't know how to check MD5 from github. I'm pretty sure I'm safe. download the file, check it? aint that hard. DL it with https too |

Two ideas for improvement:
1) Compression: this will easy shave off 25% of the file size. My 2.6 G blockchain file uncompressed became 1.9 G compressed with zip.
2) Split it up in multiple files. If I stop using bitcoin for a couple of months and then start using it again I might still have a large chunk of the blockchain left on my computer. I really only need the new block. The current mainline has a new way of storing blockfiles (.bincoin/blocks/blk000?.dat instead of .bitcoin/blk000?.dat) each with size 128 MB (instead of the much larger .bitcoin/blk000?.dat files). These smaller, 128 MB, files would be nice to have available via a torrent, making it possible to limit the download to only the latest blocks.
im sry but zip compression totally sucks... read this fora nice list: http://www.maximumcompression.com/index.html |

test the one already there, GLIBC is backward compatible Wink I tried that allready, guess i wouldnt demand for it if your upper version would work on rpi, is there a way on debian to crosscompile?? En Gruess A friend of mine got a RPi, gonna ask him if i can use it and build the miner on raspbian. RPi is ARM6 not x86/x64 therefore it wont work on it En gruess |
