I don't have an answer for the original question, sorry, but will say that p2pool over tor is a horrible idea. One of the main trade-offs for using the onion router is speed for privacy, you loose a great deal of speed to gain incremental privacy. As a miner on p2pool, the competition is tough and speed is everything; latency from miner to node, node to peers, bitcoin's GBT latency, etc... Tor, while an awesome project, slows things down by its very privacy centric routing nature. Tor - great for privacy, horrible for mining bitcoin.

I know this is the wrong forum for this but there is something I have noticed happen with p2pools that go a long time between finding blocks. The Share data Timestamp gets out of sync with the Block Timestamp (share example below). P2Pool > Share 5d2b2435 Parent: 84811fe2 Far parent: 43fe4ebd Children: a62c35b8 Type: Share Local data Verified: true Time first seen: Thu Jul 16 2015 12:14:49 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time) (1437074089.855) Peer first received from: null Share data Timestamp: Tue Apr 28 2015 02:51:43 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time) (1430214703) Difficulty: 0.00732421875 Minimum difficulty: 0.00024413713253701452 Payout address: WZVMSJTXSGSTxUNvEbrswYjxaVN78U39Aw Donation amount: 0.00% Last stale: null Nonce: 2849031433 Desired version: 13 Absolute height: 2738339 Absolute work: 381219517042610 Block Hash: 070892fbf1f9a16577bf5369d29226f0d54fca74566485fe9dcd147a5d2b2435 Header Version: 2 Previous block: 6f09e34bb7ebc14aba03c8b3e6f17e18856bd911ccf2a105c2a5624df2af25db Merkle root: dfeb25ec89a937f0081284e5257067eda1d76a39d3a4f4d3bd5feaed03b68353 Timestamp: Sun Jul 12 2015 10:32:24 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time) (1436722344) Difficulty: 66.48263727902803 Nonce: 2261320128 Generation transaction Hash: dfeb25ec89a937f0081284e5257067eda1d76a39d3a4f4d3bd5feaed03b68353 Coinbase (hex): 03470d1f2cfabe6d6d205454b1fe5ead378f44859adc946bb2cfa216c3348e76bcf2533241f13bb8960800000000000000 Coinbase (text): ?G??,??mm TT??^?7?D????k?????4?v??S2A?;?????????? Value: 40 WDC Last txout nonce (used by Stratum miners): 0000000000000001 Other transactions
After enough blocks are found it eventually syncs back up. The main problem with this is that the share difficulty stays at the lowest possible rate until it does sync causing p2pool to overload itself when large miners come on. A not so important side effect is that if you have irc announce on it does not report found blocks until it is back in sync. If anyone is inclined to look into this I would be forever thankful.

You are probably right so I ll have to give up on running p2pool on this specific coin. Thank you all for trying to help me, very kind from all of the ppl here.

![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) and again ... i have a problem with the shares of P2Pool. Shares don't rise on P2Pool command ... and Bitcoin Core debug.log indicate insane "input already spend". ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) someone have an explaination, or, it's again a corrupted share chain in my folder (local). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimagizer.imageshack.us%2Fa%2Fimg901%2F8484%2FsuBN1U.jpg&t=665&c=M5DALE0RIqMrAw)

Can you post your logs of when the problem started? This looks exactly like the problem I referred to earlier.Also, are you using the relatnetworkclient?

Not off topic at all. Assuming you have a BTC p2pool node setup, you'll need to open up port 9332. To be a "good" citizen, you should have the following ports open: 8333 - BTC peers 9333 - p2pool peers 9332 - p2pool miners Note that opening up 8333 and 9333 will allow multiple peers to connect and you will see higher bandwidth usage.

Email the owner of this site he'll post it up for you on his node finder http://nodes.p2pool.co/

Not in the bitcoind conf file, add it to the p2pool start up command, like so: ~/p2pool/run_p2pool.py --give-author {yourdonation] --fee [yourfee] Add your number without the [], leaving a space between commands.

You type it in a command console to start p2pool. Have a read of the readme, particularly the section on running p2pool: https://github.com/forrestv/p2poolor type in: python run_p2pool.py --help ..to see a list of commands ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

That will give forrestv a 2% donation and will charge anyone who mines on your node a 1% fee.
