Dumped all mine at atomic-trade.com when I shut my node down.......

That's the one with a bunch for sale but none being bought.

that's the one. i think it's on another exchange too, with the same no-buyer buy list.

Does anyone know how the PetaMine voting is trending?  Are we going to get a huge influx the next few days or is it looking like they're going to stay on GHash.io?

Thanks for bringing this up!

This could be a nice boost for our overall hashrate, and p2pool is just about perfect for PETAMINE....

I offered to give them a clone of the front end free of charge or fee, I just hope it's not to late in the voting....

************URGENT**********

I am currently in email conversation with Bitmain regarding the issues with the S2 (& soon to be released S3) & p2pool firmware/driver incompatibility issues. Bitmain have requested more info from me regarding the issues, however the type of info they require is a few levels above my paygrade/capability - so can someone either post here or PM me the exact problem & I will relay it to Bitmain.

This is an opportunity for the p2pool community to help increase the hardware availability for p2pool, something that so far has been severely lacking for the last year, and is especially important for the upcoming S3's - let's not miss out on this chance.

@forrestv - This is your chance to prove to p2pool users that you actually care - I & every user here would like to see some input from you regarding this - please provide any info you can.....

Anyone else who can provide info/solutions etc - please let me know asap.

Peace.

Edit: Screens of S2's mining on p2pool have also been requested by Bitmain.........

Did you not see Forrest is pissed most people turn off donations

[PatMan]

I did - but not as pissed as most of the p2pool users are with him. This is his chance to actually participate - let's see

BIG +1, S2's and upcoming S3's are ciritical to our success.


I'd like to start a bounty for forrestv to complete this.

I will start it with a BTC0.50 bounty offered to forrestv for a working solution for p2pool/anitminer S2 & S3 compatibility with the Ants achieving expected hashrate and shares.

Anyone is welcome to contribute to the donation address, bounty is paid to forrestv (or his designee) upon a working, distributed solution or returned in full in 30 days, I will pay return tx fees for any donation over BTC0.001, if your donation is less, consider it donated.

Please contribute.


Edit: Any additional donations (over BTC0.001) will be returned to donation address or paid to Forrest or his designee on or before July 25th, 2014.

My hope is to pay Forrest for work done, lets make the bounty worthwhile.

He does if he wants people to switch on donations again. Anyway, if we can't ensure that future mining hardware is usable with p2pool - it will die - simple as that. The hash rate drop since his spectacular fail of a "statement/moan/bribery attempt" shows which way p2pool is going, it will only get worse as everyone gradually switches off their S1's.......

Copy/Paste of my last received email from Bitmain:

"Hi,
Thanks for the info.
Please kindly provide us compared version of screenshot showing that the different speed when you use the p2pool and other pools. we need to provide more details to engineers to investigate it.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Best Regards

BITMAIN"

As my node is no longer online (stripped down) I am unable to provide these - can anyone chime in with these?

Peace.

Hit up Kano... he's done a crapload of work on cgminer trying to get it to play nice with S2 and p2pool.  Unfortunately I'm in Tokyo again, and don't get back until the end of the week, so I can't send screens of the S2 on p2pool.

[PatMan]

@ jonnybravo: Doing that now......

@ windpath: Personally, I think it would be quicker if we done it ourselves. I've spent over a year trying to get forrestv to communicate with p2pool users in this area to no avail. If he chimes in - all well & good - but I'm done waiting & done donating, as are quite a few others. I've had to shut down my node because I no longer have any compatible hardware after over 2 years of mining on p2pool (sold the last of my S1's & chilis). I'm doing this for p2pool - not him.

edit: fixed typo

I feel your frustration, the goal here is to change the compensation method for Forrest if he is amicable.

My node does not donate because I want to attract more miners to p2pool, and I believe Forrest is entitled to compensation for work completed.

This is a bounty for work completed within the next 30 days, if it's not completed any donation over BTC0.001 will be returned to the sender in full.

If it is competed, and the Ant S2 and S3 work as expected with p2pool within 30 days, Forrest (or his designee), will receive the full bounty.

If forrestv doesn't show up - a fork will be a required necessity........

Anyone using mining_proxy with p2pool, doesnt work here - Im doing something wrong maybe. It keeps connecting and closing.

They don't work with p2pool - never have. One of the many........
