MemoryCoin Pool - $100 USD Expires Soon

[FreeTrade]

Update:

The MemoryCoin Foundation lost its grant and administrator has resigned. To allow anyone who had been working on this to complete it and claim the bounty, it will remain open for 48 hours from the date of this posting. After that the bounty will expire.
-----------------

Any pool owners interested in collaborating on a MemoryCoin pool?

I expect most MC miners will prefer to be part of a pool rather than solo mining. On the client side, I'll also be building pool functionality into the MC wallet . . so new users will have zero configuration to do to start mining in a pool.

Edit: Seems it is not as easy as I thought - I've added a $100 bounty - see below.

I am on it.

Give me about 20 minutes.

I didn't notice this was Scrypt-Jane.

I must have not seen it mentioned on the OP.

Very sorry about this, but, I can't make a p2pool for this, yet...

Ok, sorry to hear that. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

How similar is MemoryCoin to YACoin?

I know there is P2Pool source for YACoin.

Bump! Anybody interested in this? If not, why? What am I not understanding about pools?

I guess it has similarities with CPR, so I might do it at some point. Ill try first to make it work proper with CPR before going for others. scrypt-jane p2pool sources are kinda obsolete code so theres still some work left, altho yacoin could work for mem out of the box. biggest problems with CPR is with very small amount per block. (Im talking bout p2p ones)

Okay, thanks for the consideration. We've just hit an exchange (Bter) so we should have a clearer idea of what a MC block is worth very soon.

Hmm, I took some preliminary steps into getting pool running for this. first thing that I stumpled on is that I kind find external miner for this, Its kinda hard to pool mine with internal miner isn't it?

I'm not sure - I don't know much about pools or external miners. I'm here to help if there's any changes you need for the QT client or memorycoind that you need answered.

Also I'm adding a $100 USD sweetener bounty award from MCF for the first pool. It might require the creation of an external miner. For the bounty, any client code that needs to be run should be open source, and the pool needs to be zero configuration for the user . . so no account setup or anything like that.

im out then, you cant exactly run a good pool without accounts.

I've seen pools where users can user their address as a username . . so it's easy for new users to get involved. If you want to use that information to set up an account for the user on your system, that's fine. If you want to offer the user an option to set up an account that's fine too, just so long as it is not required. Or if you want to set up a pool that does require the user to set up an account first - that would be great, but not eligible for the bounty. I'm also not well educated in this area, so am open to reasoned argument from better informed people.

I guess im near finish with the cpr p2pool. I guess could look into this after its finished. I suppose the hashing algo was somewhere at the coins main thread.

Yes, it's all open source, downloadable from github, and I'm here to help as far as my talents allow.

that doesnt really provide much of an option since it restricts it to a p2pool, which although ive run before, i prefer not to use nowadays. A standard pool stores the coins in its own wallet till maturity then the user's are able to withdraw it from their own accounts. The reason a p2pool doesnt require a user to set up accounts is all payments are sent directly to the user's address
