[1500 TH] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool

[n0nce]

I am new to this and love the idea of the p2pool. My target is not to earn money, it is more supporting the network as I understand that miners are needed for creating new blocks. I'm running a full node on Mac OS too. Unfortunately i am stuck in the installation process of p2pool and the instructions for Mac OS are a little bit confusing for me. The latest version of python and p2pool are downloaded and installed but I won't get it to work. Maybe its because my processor is a M1 or what I am doing wrong ? Is there somewhere a more detailed instruction for dummies? Thank you for the help!

These days it doesn't really make sense to use anything else than an ASIC. Even if CPU mining was supported (I highly doubt it), it will put a lot of stress on your shiny new MacBook, barely help supporting the network at all and also not generate any revenue.

If you're interested in this topic however, I highly recommend buying Compac F by GekkoScience or Futurebit Apollo if you'd like a bit more hashpower and better $/hash value.

You need to try to install jtoomim GitHub repo (pyrhon 2.8+pyPy), that is the latest one, but it is incompatible with the taproot update, as I know. Or You can rely on our c2pool upcoming release...

Yet another P2Pool node comes online, https://btc.zeropool.io Nicehash compatible.

Wow, didn't think p2pool was still going. Where's the latest software, I'll at least fire up a node or two.

I congratulate you!, this solves the control of blockades that China has on the miners
