Hi there! Curdozer's 365Coin Mining Pool is back on duty.

Due to lack of interest we disabled it until something will change, and it is.

I have upgraded pool and wallet software and also fixed a few minor website issues, that will be soon reported to the dev team.

We changed default anti-51% attack script to disallow registration above 30%.

You are more than welcome, so enjoy! 365.curdozer.com

PS. I will be 0% fee for a while and some spare 365 for Tx Fee.
PS2. It may take a while to find the first block at current hashrate. Previously, our last was #59790.

Great pool, sending some hash your way.  Hope we can get more people on-board.

Network hash rate is up to 524 TH/s, best I've seen.  Expected time to block is down to 15 hours, really great!

I'm operating a 0% fee node on a fast server in Chicago.

Come mine with us!

Maybe ask the owners dwarfpool increase temporarily fee to 2%-3% to help spread out hash power?

It's worth a shot, but the 3% fee on 1gh's maxcoin pool had no effect.  They still have 75% of the hash power.  A 10% fee might just be effective though, and I'm willing to bet that enough people would ride it out long enough for dwarfpool to make a tidy profit.  I think a good fee schedule would be:
up to 30% - 1%
up to 40% - 2%
up to 50% - 5%
over 50% - 10%

Not holding my breath though.  With only three pools it's going to be impossible to balance the hash, we need more pools.  P2Pool would really help but no seems to have the skills to get it working with Keccak.

handsomeone, I would suggest finding a support forum specific to your mining application.  Please also note that this coin uses Keccak, an alternative algorithm and will not work with standard Scrypt or SHA-256 miners.  You need to use the modified cgminer application.

You can setup all the p2p pools you want... And it will help nothing. Miners need to actively move around to diff pools...
And Pools need to control the amount of hash they aquire. Dwarf and 1gh FAIL big time to do this, again it is also the fault of the miners.

The official pool is up and running move some hash there help spread out.

We can't count on the benevolence of miners and operators to do the right thing, it's supposed to be built into the system.  Look at VertCoin, P2Pool works, but they have the infrastructure for it. In fact they have three P2Pools for different size miners and they have a node finder.  People can take advantage of P2Pool to reduce variance and eliminate fees, furthermore if you run your own node you don't need to worry about the pool going down when there's an influx of miners.  Lot's of P2Pool nodes means lots of options for new miners.  The problem isn't the greedy miners or pool operators, it's the lack of options, and three pools isn't going to cut it.  A healthy P2Pool network could solve the problem.

all the pools are shutting down.  I don't like it when  dwarfpool is the only one left.  Centralized, not exactly good for a coin.  The pools are reporting that 365 lost its dev support.

Exactly, that's why I abandoned MaxCoin, where one pool has 75% of the network hash.  Once a pool has over 50% of the network hash it's over.  No one seems to care.  The whole reason we're mining is to secure the coin.  Once a pool has 51% it's worthless, as the pool operator gains full control over the coin, and adding hash rate does NOTHING to secure the coin.  Avoiding central authority is the reason cryptocurrency was invented.

Dwarfpool has 385 GHs out of a total 466 GHs, that's 82%.  This coin is now a failed coin.  Come on devs, help get P2Pool working so we can save the coin.

what is with dwarfpool?
Has anyone been paid in the last few hours?   Huh

Was down all morning for me, my miners fell back to mingopool.  The pool situation is very weak.  365coin is starting show signs of real life, but if we're going to protect and grow the coin we need P2Pool, otherwise we're going to go bust like MaxCoin.  I really like 365coin and I've been working all day on a P2Pool port, but alas my crypto skills are not quite there.

Any devs out there?  Join me!  There's an incomplete keccak port here:
https://github.com/florianuhlemann/p2pool_sha3keccak

I got all the networks.py settings, but it fails to validate shares as the merkle root doesn't match up.  There's probably just an unconverted SHA2 in there somewhere.  This could make our break our favourite coin, so please help out.

KimoCoin P2Pool Up and Running  Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

The first public KimoCoin P2Pool node is online.  Come mine with us!
http://kmc.1js.us/

P2Pool has been a huge contributor to the success of VertCoin.  No registration, instant payouts direct from the coinbase, no need to trust pool operators, and no risk of 51% attacks.  Let's show the cryptocoin community that we mean business, make KimoCoin #1 with p2pool adoption!

Grab the source and run your own node:

address. tx's, headers, checksum and POW are all sha3

He's right, it's failing because the conversion is incomplete somewhere.

I'm working on getting a P2Pool up and running.

Noticed a problem with post #0:
Quote
P2P port: 8869
RPC port: 8868

That's backwards.  The P2P port is 8868 and the RPC port is 8869.

Forgive me if it's been discussed already, but is the store fake?  Seems not one item is in stock.

Megapools are a p2pool base. Try to ask him for publish the code Wink

Sent him a PM.  If any other devs want to help out, I just need the settings for the networks.py files.

Let's get a KMC P2Pool started.  If someone could modify the source, I'll host the first node.  P2Pool has been a huge contributer to the success of VertCoin.  Let's not end up like MaxCoin where one pool has 75% of the network.
295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MAX] MaxCoin - Alive and Kickin' on: April 24, 2014, 02:51:37 AM
So everyone knows about the 1gh.com problem and shrugs.  A week later and they have 75%.  Really glad to see 365coin stepping up their game, because as far as Keccak coins go, MAXcoin sucks.  I hate to be a troll, but I'm seriously disillusioned.  Screw you guys, I'm out.
296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: altcoins are all dying on: April 22, 2014, 09:23:05 PM
Altcoins remind me of baseball cards and beanie babies.  They're fun to play with and I want to collect them all.

For the G-Blade, I suggest using LRP with the advanced speed reporting turned off, then your hash will be reported.
298  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / MaxCoin has failed on: April 18, 2014, 05:13:32 PM
1gh.com is down to 71% of the network hash.  That's a 5% improvement, but it's not going to cut it.  Right now we're giving this pool operator 100% control of MaxCoin.  He can double spend, he can deny other pools from getting blocks, the coin is totally centralized and vulnerable.  He is now the chairman of the MaxCoin reserve, and he has no oversight.  What happens if something happens in his family and he really needs some cash for whatever reason.  It's something that happens to all of us, except we don't all have the option of screwing random people over for thousands of dollars with no repercussions.  If we can't come together to solve this HUGE problem, then you should take this as a sign and sell all your maxcoin while you still can.

If someone could modify the P2Pool source for MaxCoin, I would be happy to host the first node with 0% fees on a fast server with a dedicated IP.  Look at the Vertcoin community, with their strong P2Pool and well distributed hash.  You other pool operators would benefit from a P2Pool network even if you don't realize it, after all a rising tide raises all ships.  As of now, MaxCoin is a failed coin.
299  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][MAX] MaxCoin - Alive and Kickin' on: April 17, 2014, 06:33:14 PM
Just noticed that 1gh.com has 76% of the network hash  Angry Angry Angry Angry

What the hell guys?  They're charging a 3% fee to discourage use, and still 76% !!!

Does anyone here care about the fate of MaxCoin, because if you did you would pay attention and not allow a single pool to have 76% of the network hash, that's crazy!  It opens us up to a 51% attack and sends a terrible message to the cryptocoin community at large.

I just don't understand this, I realize people are lazy, but I would expect those fees to have an effect.  BOOO!

We need p2pool.

Three blocks were found in 21 hours.  I see the logic though, three rounds took longer.
