Looks like I've lost a few days worth of profits... Never got paid. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) No block Fireduck, thank you for running this pool. To see it go is a loss for everyone.

I should note that carefully shutting down something you have spent so long building is like strangling a kitten with your bare hands. I'm having the last node refuse connections for one hour to help people figure out something is wrong. After that, I'm going to bring up a p2pool node with a payout address of Sean's Outpost. http://stratum.hhtt.1209k.com:9332/static/Fireduck, I went solo one month ago since I had a few more meat-space duties to follow. It is a sad day today and I can feel all your pain. I've enjoyed your pool since the autumn of 2011 when I first started mining on it. You made a great pool, the best in my opinion, I was not even using backup pools when I was mining on HHTT. That said, you're a brilliant mind and I'm sure you'll soon find new ways to improve the BTC environment and have fun. My best wishes for a great 2014! spiccioli

Ha, I didn't think anyone noticed. I mostly stopped adding things because I changed some database security stuff which made it a pain to get to a system that could write to the db to add entries.

closing the pool
Hey, man. Great pool you had. However, WTF is everyone whining about you closing it, the new p2pool node you run is way better idea! I'm speaking of this: http://stratum.hhtt.1209k.com:9332/static/I've already made 0.03 bitcoins in that pool and it has been online just a couple of days now.

Maybe I'm missing something but that page doesn't even look complete and how is one supposed to mine off this "new pool" let alone see the hasrate as a whole for said pool ?

It's fully functional, please refer to this: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2PoolAll the JSON stuff is working so that I was able to modify my ASIC monitoring script, the pool just found the 3rd block today!

I don't mean HHTTMP, I mean the new pool he opened, the P2Pool.

I'll be shutting down the pool today. I would be surprised if there were any more blocks.
Thanks everyone.
For whatever it is worth, I've switched my personal miners to slush's pool with BTC Guild as a backup.
If you would be so kind, could you please explain your reasoning for switching to Slush instead of any other pool? I tried to run my miners there, but there are constant issues with payouts and reward calculations. It is like the opposite of the stability, reliability, and transparency that HHTT had. I want to support a lower hash rate pool, and I don't mind the variance so much, but not at a significant cost in profitability. Thank you for your input on this!

Alas, good luck fireduck. The backend of HHTT with all of the Amazon services was a work of art. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I do very little BTC mining since I mine on my own TRC pool, but I'm still sad to see HHTT go. Another pool I'd suggest people take a look at is bitparking (offers merge mining, and uses some of HHTT's back end software).

I want to support a lower hash rate pool, and I don't mind the variance so much, but not at a significant cost in profitability. Thank you for your input on this! I am actually trying p2pool now. I have a node setup with a 1% fee: http://b.1209k.com:9332/static/Note: I might take down or change this at any time. It is not redundant. Your username has to be exactly a bitcoin address or you won't get anything. I've considered building a wrapper around p2pool to make a viable smaller pool but there are some problems. 1) With p2pool, you have to find mini-shares to get paid. They are about 1m difficulty, so ok for large miners but not good for smaller guys. 2) The p2pool does adjust share difficulty, but on a global basis. So with just my miners attached, everyone who connected will see about 1k share difficulty, which is again problematic for small miners. I could pretty easily run redundant nodes (I am not yet and not sure I will) and could write some code to aggregate stats from them to give people reports so it has that going for it. I might be able to solve problem #2 by hacking at the code a bit, but I'm not sure I want to mess with that.

Just attempted to fire up some mining to this pool and failed which led back here ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Sorry to see this closed down. Thanks for all the hard work Fireduck and I hope you have success going forward. p2pool address given does not resolve for me. Never mind. I got it.

Well the point of p2pool is that everyone should run their own p2pool and not connect to someone else running it, right?

p2Pool is not viable for smaller miners, so a p2Pool proxy is a good alternative.

I suppose you mean the difficulty for each worker, since it reads like node-basis (i.e with your miners...). Actually everyone can adjust this by append the number they want to the username (address or not), for example, 13qnEgPTxJW6mm88dLpnHXZyryN5EXBciq+16 But I think it just make the graphs looks nicer for small miners ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
