is there any way to "prefer" 7 chain and up instead of tiny 6 chain values?

I'm getting those numbers


getmininginfo shows


something is off. I'm using a 32 core instance and 60GB of RAM. How does it look like when a block was found?

what is the best configuration for 64GB of RAM and 32 cores?

I'm using -s 2000000 -d 15 but it doesn't seem to be finding more shares than usual (at 88k PPS)

yes, I didn't attempt to withdraw any coins because I knew something was wrong, I didn't own that many coins, that's for sure.

no, i'm just suppossing, nothing official. for the global pool difficulty to have changed like that, something went terrible wrong (from 800ish to 18), after my miner lost connection, I went to the site to see if it was online, then I saw it.

EDIT: see the last "created block"

http://hypernova.pw seem to have been hacked, the difficulty dropped to ~18, and everyone started getting tons of shares each second, ended up with hundreds of coins in the accounts, but now is way down to 0.0000000000 LTC. They didn't even bother to use a backup or anything like that, just decided to zero everything. Pretty pissed right now.

Improved the docs a bit. The main server part is completly functional. Only missing the automated tests!

yup, that's why I added the 'conflict' member of the result of the function, so you might resolve the conflicts by yourself (either by querying a block explorer or the daemon directly)

done, finished my hacky detect cryption library (using base58-native) for node.js

https://github.com/pocesar/node-detect-cryptocoin

nice! the more light weight, the merrier. should focusing in making it modular and independent, but that work well together.

I've created a pull request for the gyp binding to build base58 on windows.

hey jgarzik, I'm already following you on github

thanks for the links, they are pretty important, mainly for the base58 that I didn't find in npm earlier! I'm at the moment finishing a hash address detector, simple quick and dirty way to detect which addresses belong.

I've learned a lot from reading the bitcoinjs-server source, but couldn't make it work on Windows, unfortunately.

thanks man, really appreciate it. I should finish the coind part by this weekend I think (along with forking the process with the proper command line parameters).
after that, I will focus on testing every part of the server, using mocha and sinon (for mocks and stubs), and then try converting some python code for the stratum mine pool from slush to see how well it performs and add a benchmark to it as well. AFAIK, node is pretty good at handling connections, so I'm confident it will handle a large amount of data and connections per 'cluster'

Gotta love the Fallout game reference

Thanks, it seems to be working, but the faucet is always regenerating now, is it expected?

It's built from scratch using dependency injection, D.R.Y. paradigm, event emitters and deferred/promises.

https://github.com/pocesar/node-stratum

• Defer and promise based code instead of callbacks (avoid callback hell)
• Simple but powerful API for managing both server and client
• Build-in support for spawn coins daemons (bitcoind, litecoind, etc) process and accept RPC calls
• Easy for you to add your own procedures do the RPC server (using expose)
• No need to worry about .conf files for the daemons, everything is passed through command line the best way possible (but you may override arguments)
• Optimized code reuse with class methods and dependency injection
• All classes based on EventEmitter by default (through the Base class)
• The client part make it easy, along with an RPC server, to setup your own farming pool for coins
• You can create a proxy from it using the Client interface, mix up Stratum with your own RPC definition and commands
• It's up to you to choose the logging module (like winston)

It's currently on active development, only missing the bitcoind control from the code, and then creation of the automated mocha tests, and should be ready to go. Preliminar tests showed it to be working well (with cpuminer and bfgminer, for example)

oh nice, thanks for sharing

I just stumbled across this: http://webcl.nokiaresearch.com/

This enables OpenCL usage inside the browser (along with asm.js for faster math operations, Firefox only). Although it's experimental, wouldn't it be possible to create a miner directly inside the pool page?

say you create a game with 10 tickets, and you buy 9, leaving 1 for others to buy, at 0.005 BTC each, they lose only 0.005 and you MIGHT lose 0.045 BTC, since you still give 10% chance for them. High risk for you and low profit for you, high profit chance for the other user at a small price, it's pretty simple.

I'm kinda addicted to this site, and losing everything after a long winning streak, every time, it's a bad sign of my addiction...
