Any idea why payouts drop off so precipitously when I have any issues with my setup. I mean, obviously the payout builds up slowly over time but surely they should drop of at a similar rate? I made some changes which apparently stopped p2pool from producing valid shares then shortly after that, my potential payout dropped from near .025 btc to around .002 in almost no time.

If your mining on your own public node then it's IP is traceable, if your mining on someone else's node then they can see your miners IP... The latency introduced by using VPN or Tor will kill most of your shares...
That being said its about as anonymous as you can get until you spend the coins, then the recipient can easily tell they are fresh P2Pool block reward coins and depending on what you buy will most likely need some kind of contact info for you. You could mix them first if your really paranoid...
I'd say overall P2Pool is highly private, but like with anything else bitcoin only truly anonymous if you follow strict and comprehensive practices to avoid identity disclosure from day 1.
So what I'm hearing is: Mine on your neighbor's wifi  |

Edit: Nevermind. Blockchain timestamp is UTC. The time difference takes care of some of that. Close enough. Next block, please.
One of the many beauties of p2pool - payments are always correct & always paid. No reliance on any middleman & no chance of being conned  And no chain of ownership Though it surely is not completely anonymous. Just how traceable is p2pool? |

Hmm, my payout is about 1/10 of what my graph shows it should be... Graph shows ~0.02, payout was <0.002 Edit: Nevermind. Blockchain timestamp is UTC. The time difference takes care of some of that. Close enough. Next block, please. |

question was: Have one p2pool process connecting to multiple bitcoind processes via RPC at the same time?
you have answered: No.
how should I undersand this: [BITCOIND_RPCUSERPASS [BITCOIND_RPCUSERPASS ...]]
Fallback option? You might be able to connect to multiple bitcoinds with a load balancer, maybe. |

Anyone know what this means?
Antminer (S5) starts beeping about every two seconds. If I check the status page, temperatures are OK (59 and 63), chains are all 'o' but hashrate has dropped to near zero. After about 60 seconds, there is a long beep then it looks like things recover.
Previously, I have just restarted when beeping has occurred but now I'm wondering if that was pointless and preferably, I'd like to stop it happening in the first place.
It will beep if you loose internet connection or the Pool goes down for some reason. This could be the reason? Rich Hmm. Possible. I'm on a local p2pool and it appears to still be up but it could be something, likely the bitcoind. Seems like it's nothing to worry about though. |

There's never been a boom and bust that wasn't perpetuated by government involvement, except every one that's happened to Bitcoin. Yes Atlas, Bitcoin is so immune that it's no longer worth $1,200. lol
"Perpetuated". It doesn't mean that there aren't booms and busts, just that they tend to right themselves naturally if governments don't try to meddle. I wouldn't necessarily say "never" myself though. |

Edit: If the results are OK in the morning I'll do a reboot to make sure the settings keep - if they do then it's all good & I'll update my other S5's I believe it will not. In which case, I may tweak this firmware instead If I do, I'll make 4.9.0 the default. |

OK, this is a pretty trivial request and others may not agree with me but I'll run it up the flagpole and see who salutes.
I run with several accounts and after I have done working with an account and I am on the "balance" screen, I'll hit the back button, intending to go back to the accounts selection screen to work with a different account and the app will exit.
Now, obviously, this is "correct" given the logic of the UI but it would be nice if hitting back in this situation (and maybe others) would take you to the account selection screen. Having done some android development, I know this would be a pretty simple change.
Thoughts?

Are we on rally now?
I don't think so. I don't think one is imminent either. |

We also have a valuable limit used to avoid spam filling up blocks, I'd also like to keep it that way.
OK, so now we have to define what is a valuable limit for *now*, not what was a valuable limit for *then*. You could spam the network with less than 100th of the dollar cost then. |

Then again, how exactly is status quo an irrational stance?
It depends on how you define the status-quo. I would define it as we currently have more than ample space in a block for genuine transactions. I'd like to keep it that way. |

I would regard this as purely hypothetical. It could be made to work but you wouldn't want to do it. I suspect the varying mains voltage would be the least of the problems. In practice for safety reasons you would have to use a transformer, if you were doing that you might as well step the voltage down, and once you have done that you have created an old school low efficiency linear PSU. Rich Yeah, it was more some idle contemplation but my thought was along the lines of not having to buy a pricey PSU for 10-20% of the miner cost. You could probably have a much higher current running through that too so more cost savings for multiple miners. A full ATX CPU seems like overkill just for a 12V supply. |

There is nothing radical in not supporting XT. Being on the fence as in "half adopting" XT is simply a disingenuous stance. Sort of like the "atheism is a religion" argument. Or being on the fence about the Pol Pot genocide because opposing all murders is radical, "let's compromise and murder just half of the opposition and their families".
Problem is, the public argument pretty quickly turned into a binary choice of sorts, pro XT vs. pro status quo. Given that choice, anything other than being on the fence would be naive. XT is a bit of a red herring. It's more about BIP101 (and friends) and more broadly, it's about how the protocol is managed. |

Referring to the part of your statement that I have bolded above. Even though this is the final auction of this particular series of ceased coins, I would NOT put it past the Feds and/or other Governments from time to time come across BTC and/or other crypto assets in large quantities and to have similar future auctions.
Anyone heard of any pools on this one? I'd love to drop 1/2 mil on some coins but cash flow & all, y'know... |

If you rectified & smoothed 120V Mains would give 168V. You are going to need a very long string, like 210 Chips. Could be done but the strings work better with more than one chip at each stage. S5 has 2, S7 has 3. So that means 420 or 660 so not very practical, and without an isolating transformer, which will have losses, not very safe. When I first thought of it, I had in mind that the chips were 3-4V but that would certainly be a lot of chips. Safety though? Pshaw. Just think of the hashes per Joule  |

Read through that earlier. Hurting and panicking? Potato/potato, I guess. |

Have a look at the subreddit if you want to see the XT crew literally hurting and panicking that other scalability solutions are progressing, undermining their efforts to enforce 8GigaByte blocks and node de-anonymising code.
It's kind of fun to see.
Which subreddit? I don't check in on /r/bitcoinxt that often but a quick look and things seem fairly innocuous. The sidechain thread has 6 comments. |
