bitHopper: Python Pool Hopper Proxy

[joulesbeef]

cool; I guess I can tone down the hate a tiny bit. I do like the 8 digit payout. i'll give them another chance anyways.


If they were on fire AND I actually had to urinate, then I guess I WOULD piss on them


doesnt look like it would help us but interesting enough to share.. a daily luck graph.. made by [this guy

click onthe picture in the reddit link too.. it shows more.

http://www.bitminersunion.org/ these guys look hop able
they list their shares anyways.

they havent found a block yet either..

Yeah I was looking at their site yesterday. It should be hop-able since they have proportional payout but some people were complaining about this and wanted it changed to PPLNS.

More info in his first thread: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=33072.0

Now the question is are the stats delayed or not.

Edit: It seems like the stats are not delayed. Updates on each refresh of the page.

Edit 2: Added it to my pools, so far so good. Going to get the ~40% and monitor the profit to see if it drops any.

Just created a Github account and tried to create a pull request, hope it worked out as intended...

pools.cfg would then contain only developer relevant information, no longer some mess to edit in user names + passwords just because some pool now has a different API address.

Care to share the config? json doesn't look like it's working.

So Sukrim is actively trying to piss off pool operators apparently:

Yeah I see, just hopped in again!

By the way - what is done against people gaming the jackpot by creating (e.g.) 100 accounts and simply running 100 miners on a GPU (not really a problem for GPUs, though I haven't tried with that high numbers) all going at CPU miner speed? I guess that could increase chances to "jack the pot" somewhat significantly and only costs time one to set the whole stuff up once.

Edit:
And hellooo >200GH/s hash rate! Thanks and gratulations to everyone who chooses to mine at massive losses just to make hoppers happy!

[joulesbeef]

so both of those regexs work right?
if so I think I am beginning to understand them and can test a few myself when they dont have json

and do eligious payments show up as "generated"

[muyoso]

Yea, that freaked me out the first time.

Yeah, I gave up doing that because it just doesn't work. I applaud his tenacity, but I think he's going to tread water. I've just concentrated on trying to help hopping be as efficient as possible until there are no prop pools left.

Oh.  I am in it for the money.  I would have stopped mining by now if it wasn't for hopping, and hopping has allowed me to continue.  I have absolutely no problem with pools remaining prop and the users who choose to use them.  There is PLENTY enough choice out there for people right now, I really don't think anyone should be trying to force the remaining prop pools into changing their systems.  Also, doing so means less pools for me to hop, which is bad.

[Clipse]

Im not into poolhopping to get anyone to fix prop or whatever pay methods.

I like the extra payouts, I would prefer everyone to shhhh and just let this keep going

That said, out of the entire network hashrate I could count perhaps 150-200gh of hopping power. that is less 1.5% of the total network, no way we are making a dent at all.

[Sukrim]

Well, the more people use this hopper (and the better it works), the more pools we're gonna break by simply "DDoSing" them. I also want to see prop pools gone for good (or rather bad...), I like the profit in the mean time though, which I see as payment for my efforts in improving bitHopper.

200 GH of hoppers is even quite a chunk of a huge pool like btcguild. Smaller pools are known to double their hash rates due to hoppers. Whoever keeps mining there must be simply crazy...

Nofeemining.com is adding a new pool that can be used for backup (Just use a bitcoin address as a username), its cloud based and I ran them for a while and got 0 stales so I want to use them as a backup. I added the following to pool.cfg

Code:

[nofeebackup]
name:nofeebackup
mine_address:nofeemining.appspot.com:80 
role:backup
#CHANGE THIS
#https://www.nofeemining.com/ 
user:1NnXZ27LyUFBR5r1RQr9gMgepC8zBSSB2N
pass:x

But I get the following error:

Is this pool doing something different that is breaking the hopper?

[macboy80]

I have just finished tweaking my new modifications to the appearance of the stats page. I still need some help getting the red / yellow / green / blue text to apply to the whole line as well as the graph, but that can wait.

What do you guys think?

EDIT: Picture is missing red for disable / api_disable. Works the same as other colors, though.

and i wasnt using them for backup.. are they pay per share now or something?

macboy80

the colors look fine but something is messing with my eyes in the payout section. besides for that, it looks good.

[Sukrim]

Just a heads-up for everyone:

You from now on need to edit user.cfg (copy from user.cfg.default), NOT pool.cfg!

Hope that was big enough...

pool.cfg holds stuff like regexes + URLs that shouldn't matter to users anyways and you can then update easier if there is no change in the number of pools, just in some "backend" stuff.

[joulesbeef]

I just finished copying and pasting  url: fields into each and every one, and did a friends as well and I come back here half an hr later and you split pool.cfg into pool.cfg and user cfg?

I hope your stale rate goes up 2% for making me go through all that!  ;P
