[ANN][The Original Multipool - Scrypt/SHA256/Scrypt-N/X11] multipool.us

[flound1129]

I think I've nailed the issue on the disconnects..  It seems that in my infinite floundery wisdom, I mistakenly enabled difficulty below 16 across all the scrypt pools.  We were getting flooded with difficulty 1 shares.  I've fixed this issue and the pools should be a bit more stable now, especially in EU.

[flound1129]

Just added a new custom diff scheme for BTC P2pool.  Hopefully this should help with the astronomically high difficulties people have been seeing.  Details in latest news update.

Any chance on adding Goldcoin or Galaxycoin? They've been quite quite profitable on and off the past few days.

I am mining sha-256 and it seems like it will mine any currency but BTC.  When it switches to BTC, it will stop mining.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

If you're mining through slush's stratum proxy (e.g. with ASICMiner blades or cubes), there's a known problem with p2pool (and this gets passed through Multipool) - it won't work with that proxy.  Some have suggested that it's best to run with the bfgminer proxy, but I'm not sure if that gets around the p2pool problem since I can't run it more than 6-8 minutes before it declares the devices SICK and restarts them, killing my hashrate.  This latter is a known problem with certain devices, wireless, and QoS - it's a tough nut to crack, and I haven't had time to troubleshoot.

I'm using bfgminer v3.4.0 with two ASIC USB miners and it does the same thing.


I updated to bfgminer 3.8.0 and it showed that there was active work (on multipool site), but then stopped again.

Interesting.  I have several USB ASICMiners and a couple of USB Red Furys - neither have that stopping problem with any 3.x versions of BFGminer.  I'm on 64-bit linux.  But I used the USB miners via stratum directly and not through the bfgminer proxy.

Dear Multipool Miners,

I have sent an open letter to flound the operator of the multipool.

------------------------------------------------------------
Dear flound1129,

With this kind of trading on Cryptsy where orders are crossed for hours from 1 Satoshi and levels that force the multipool to push the coin to insane difficulty levels, I formally request the Luckycoin to be removed from the multipool.

Please comment in the community forum.
luckycoinfoundation.org

Best regards,

Titan

I invite everyone involved to comment on the topic in the Luckycoin community forum, luckycoinfoundation.org : Cryptsy, Multipool, Miners, Luckycoin community.

I'm glad you flound the solution 

How's it going with ANC and TAG?

Is TAG still forked?

BitBar is another I'd recommend.

Huh, "...from 1 Satoshi and levels..."    No idea what this means. Is a "Satoshi" a unit of measure?

So it sounds like LKY is just too wimpy for mining. Is it just a hobby shop project?

I'm in favor of eliminating LKY permanently and not just until Vern says Cryspy is ready to try again.

Of course, satoshis are the smallest bitcoin unit 0.00000001 BTC, for example LKY trades for 2900 satoshis per piece right now, or 0.00002900 ;-)

[united-scrypt-coin]

Request: can you add support for mining UnitedScryptCoin? This coin can be merge mined together with any coin similar enough to LTC.

Highlevel overview of merged mining (explanation for 1 child chain, with more it becomes more complex):

• request work from USC with getauxblock
• put hash of block in coinbase script of parent blockchain (preceded by merged mining header)
• solve block of parent chain of difficulty in getauxblock
• provide auxpow (auxiliary proof of work) to USC with the following info
  
  • block header of parent chain
  • coinbase transaction of parent chain (this contains the hash of the USC block)
  • MerkleBranch linking parent coinbase to parent block
    
• you have mined a block of USC based on a solution to a block of the other blockchain!

For a detailed description, see for example the sourcecode of p2pool.

Very interesting and nifty to see something new like this in the scryptworld!

LKY is not trading at all. The market at Cryptsy is broken and you can't trade. Even worse, if you put an order you can't cancel afterwards. Those prices are meaningless.

[flound1129]

Yeah I was going to do this anyway.  LKY is removed from the Multiport until Cryptsy resolves its market issues.

[flound1129]

Site is down for 20 minutes or so for some DB updates.  Be back soon...

[TrippyPippy]

Mining also seems to be down apart from the site

Hmm looks like the pools are more upset than they're supposed to be..  DB tables are loading, it'll be soon now.

[killua123]

Hi guys, I really hope someone here can help me out. Ive been mining with multipool for the past week, and for some reason I always get A LOT less then I should be based on what all the calculators are saying and I think that I might be submitting a lot less shares then I should be for some reason?

For example I am mining WDC now. I have 3.7 Mh/s worth of kit and so if the pool has 820 mh worth then I have roughly 0.004% of that. This means that each blook should give me roughly 0.004% of it right? which is around 0.2 WDC... yet im getting close to half of that with each block found. I am running 2x 7990s and 2x7950s.. could it be that I am submitting a lot less shares then I should be? How am I able to stop this? as this is literally losing me money every day !!

I'll even throw in a LTC to anyone that solves the issue for me! ( not much i know but all i have!)

Kind regards

[flound1129]

We're going to be down for another 30 minutes or so..  Hit an unexpected snag.

[pengoau]

I just sold LKY on Cryptsy OK.

no wallet/deposit issues reported with lky on cryptsy's twitter feed...

Not sure what issue there is?

Are you able to add anoncoin into the scrypt mix?

You are right, LKY market is working fine now at Cryptsy, first time I can deposit+trade luckycoins in a week. Thank you for the heads up!

[pengoau]

Maybe with its removal from the multipool its had a positive affect on Cryptsy?
