[ANN][TomPool][Auto Profit Switching - SHA256/Scrypt/Keccak - 95+ coins]

[pallas]

At this stage with only two coins in the Keccak multipool I won't be adding a Keccak TomCoin just yet. I'd like the coins to all be available on major exchanges before making the move as TomCoin makes use of the Cryptsy API for trading, at the moment only MAX is on Cryptsy.

I understand.
Today I found another two new keccak coins (galleon and sloth), they are popping up like mushrooms, lets hope we can take advantage of them soon!

Now I finally realized why my TomCoin profits are less than when mining bitcoin: you are not mining bitcoin at all! Bitcoin seems to be most of the time the most profitable SHA-256 coin. Can you please add that to TomCoin and mine the alts only when they are more profitable than bitcoin. Thx!

I'd like to and I'm trying to come up with a solution but haven't gotten far on it yet, the main problem is the pool doesn't have anywhere near enough hashing power to find a BTC block. It'd be months between blocks, I'm trying to see if I can somehow redirect to a BTC pool when its more profitable.

I've been looking at 365 coin but haven't found any exchanges yet, where is it listed? The exchange needs to have an API so I can get the latest trade data.

Looks like the CoinEx wallets were hacked so all funds are gone, for what its worth I know exactly what they're going through, it isn't a great feeling logging in and seeing everything gone!

Yes, it will be great to redirect pool to ghash.io (0% fee) when BTC is more profitable.

If you do it, i will try mining with your pool.

I have 10 AntMiner S1 = 1,9 Th/s (SHA 256)

Please post if you can do it.

Perhaps becoming a proxypool? somethig like this would help you although would require some mods

What is your average BTC/Mh/day

[ADRIATICon]

Sorry I have so many messages a day its hard to keep track of them all with the time I have.

Looking at your ANC account I see you've been credited, however your auto payout threshold is above your account balance. There isn't anything wrong with the ANC pool but the ANC network can sometimes be slow to confirm blocks.

As for GLX if you've taken a look at the main TomPool site or forum you've probably seen the pools wallets experiencing problems. More specifically it can't even start because it throws an exception and crashes, I'm doing what I can to restore it but at this stage I haven't been successful and the GLX dev has thrown in the towel.

Any update on applying the Dev Team's new GLX wallet, including using their instructions? Other pools and Cryptsy have cut over already. May not be optimal for auto-switching, but works for dedicated miners so far it seems.

I've done some calcs and produced a dump of TomCoin profitability:

I've added some new coins to SHA256 recently which might be the cause for the higher payouts in the last round, I might need to add some more Scrypt coins, Scrypt seems to be suffering lately.

[Tommo_Aus]

I understand.

I'm happy to add more Keccak coins so long as they're decent and have made it to an exchange with an API.

I'll see what I can do but I'll need to find the time in between everything else to see what can be done, it might be possible to redirect your miner to a chosen BTC pool where you register with the same details as with TomPool. I.e. if your username on TomPool is abc and you have worker 123 you'd sign up to a BTC pool with username abc and worker 123 so when BTC is more profitable your TomPool personal pool port is redirected to the BTC pool. Will need to look closer at this concept.

Perhaps becoming a proxypool? somethig like this would help you although would require some mods
https://github.com/dogestreet/proxypool

Am I right in saying this pools a bunch of workers with different usernames/worker names under the one username/worker? i.e. lets say there workers are connected:

abc.123
def.456
ghi.789

It could redirect them all to worker tompool.1 at slushs pool, for instance? Does it have a way to keep a tally of shares submitted by workers at my end?

[Tommo_Aus]

Hi there. I noticed the payout threshold for Tomcoin SHA256 is 0.01. Because I only have a couple ghash, it will take a long time to reach this. Could you implement weekly payouts for 0.001, just like on middlecoin and clevermining and other pools?

Yep I've been looking at doing that, I'll add it when I get a chance.

Trying to but the wallet keeps getting stuck on block 18924.

correct. it should have a way of tallying shares although im not 100% sure (thats why i said it might need mod's )

quick question, mining tomcoins.  I entered the mining address used my bitcoin wallet number as login followed by .1 and password x.  I am using minepeon.  My wallet number never came up in the hashing list, even after a few hours and was wondering if i got the format for user/pw correct.  Am offline at the moment pending any corrections from anyone.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

Good concept.
Tell me when you done it, i will try.
Thank you

I don't recall which pool it is, but at least one of the multipools switches to Eligius when they are mining bitcoin. So I know it's doable. I'll try to find out who and let you know. I'm gonna try you again here, and see how it goes. Last time not so well, but if I can get it to hash stable, it looks like more fun than just BTC mining

EDIT: It's www.multipool.us

 Here's their Eligius stats.

[ahmed_bodi]

i could swear flound pointed to p2pool :/ he even posted on the p2pool thread that he submitted a patch which allowed a p2pool to add shares into a mysql db. (thats whats needed to get a btc pool working which is hooked up to the p2pool net)

[UNOE]

Your both right and wrong.

He used p2pool then used Eligius briefly but now uses CEX.io

[Biomech]

Been on for about an hour now... Rejects higher than eligius, but not outrageous. Hashrate at the pool (stats) is still at a variance to cgminer, but not that significant. Probably due to switching.

All in all, performing well! It appears you got the kinks out. Last time didn't work so good for me Thanks for continuing to improve the pool.

Kevin.

Edit: after a couple hours, I'm seeing similar hashrate in stats as cgminer. Definitely fixed the issues! Outstanding!

Are you on vardiff or fixed diff? Some miner have had problems with vardiff causing massive rejects (i.e. 50%...!!!) so if you aren't already using manual diff maybe give that a shot to take them down further
