bitHopper: Python Pool Hopper Proxy

[simonk83]

I hope everybody isn't completely sworn off Bitclockers - they've found 4 blocks today.

And look who one of their top workers has been:


gnaget are you hopping them or riding 247?
Hasn't been a bad time to be 247, tbh.
Also, I've been running with Cherry Picker on more and more rigs for the last day or so. BitClockers doesn't seem to block, delay, QOS, etc. using CP. Interesting data point.

Well I hopped them for a bit, and of the times that the pool wasn't red or dishing out stales, none of the work I actually did is showing up on their system.   Screw that.

for the love of whatever you believe in, please edit the user.cfg file to make it easier to read in notepad/wordpad or whatever. its a giant garbled mess and it would have been a lot easier if you just put in USERNAME and PASSWORD isntead of a bunch of your own usernames and passwords. im left searching through the file wondering what to delete and what to keep in...  all the role and Xrole junk throughout the file... come on... you took the time to code and release this but the one most important file, the user config file is the most confusing part of your work...

i would even donate if the user cfg file was user friendly. im sure ill eventually figure it out, but its really gotten on my nerves!

specficially the mtred_user_apikey:#####################################+role ... is that an error? or is the +role a command? because the xrole thing seems to be your username or password or whatever... so im supposed to put my mtred password after the api key? or before? or why is the +x beforehand and the +role after the key...

haha I think you should get a better text editor and come back if you have issues
the user.cfg.default file should look like this

if the user cfg file was user friendly.

Should have seen it before it was cleaned up and separated from the rest of the pool info.

I'm not sure why you're seeing a "role" at the end of the api key for mtred (maybe a copy/paste accident?) It should look something like this:

Code:

[mtred]
# Good for hopping, fast pool for hopper-starters
#https://mtred.com/user/registration.html
#CHANGE THIS
role: mine
mtred_user_apikey:d91c52cfe1609f161f28a1268a2915b8+
user:scarium
pass:x 

You want to replace all of the text after mtred_user_apikey: with your api key (in the example in this file, it happens to end with a +). And, of course, user and pass as appropriate.

Ok, so I'm a little confused (get used to it ).    As I said, I've mined at Triple and Pol for a while and then the script changed me to another pool.   The Triple and Pol shares are now decaying down to zero.     I thought the point of hopping was that you used pool's that didn't decay shares, so that even when you jump away you still get paid for the work whenever the block ends up getting solved?

Like I said, I'm easily confused

Your shares isnt decaying, it just becomes a smaller percentage of the overall shares, thats how prop works and thats how you score out of prop system.

Right Ok.  Same end result though isn't it?  No payout for the work done unless a block is solved just after you jump out?

Hey, watch what you say about notepad.

actually it follows a downward curb, starting from 150% for ex. slowly decaying to 110-115%, your total share efficiency, can't find my graphs in here to show you an example, and you actually stay at over 100% at  2 or 3 * difficulty, if I got that right.

No, with prop your shares will allways be worth a payout, even if you do 1 share and the block total shares is 10million, you will still have 1 share worth paid out from the 10million shares, whatever that value would be.

I think I got LP fixed. Or at least less broken. Those on the bleeding edge may want to update.

Righto.  Well you guys are far smarter than I am so I'll take your word for it

On another note, do any of you get super retarded stales with slushpool? mine is avging after 30k shares ~20% stales, rest of the pools <1% stales lol

1/10,000,000th of 50, I believe or 0.00000500 - 500 satoshi will probably buy you a candy bar in 10 years.

yes - up to 33%

I wonder if this is related to slush not running LP on his pool.

[muyoso]

I'm getting 2.1% stales with slush.  Did you try the alternate address?
