Good on you for picking up the pieces...I'll give it a whirl

Thanks!

Keep up the good work

Hey Ghost,

The link to the PhoenixCoin block-explorer seems to link to a .com domain while the block-explorer is on a .org domain.

Phoenixcoin P2Pool

There are many P2Pool nodes either set up and maintained by me or other community members. P2Pool is a secure decentralised anonymous pooled mining solution with no registration required. Use your wallet address for all your workers. The password can be any or none. Both GetWork and Stratum are supported. Payouts are sent automatically once a block is found.

My nodes operate with a 0% fee, 1% donation towards the development, 2% block finder's reward bonus.

atlas.phoenixcoin.org (Nuremberg, Germany)
sigma.phoenixcoin.org (Los Angeles, CA, the USA)
prometheus.phoenixcoin.org (Amsterdam, the Netherlands)
nitro.phoenixcoin.org (Sofia, Bulgaria)


Please don't use an exchange address while mining. P2Pool doesn't use regular transactions for payouts. Everything gets into the coin base and most exchanges ignore it.


Configuration example for CPUminer:

Code:

minerd -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://atlas.phoenixcoin.org:10554 -u <address> -p x

<address> is your PXC address


All blocks found by our P2Pool network can be found at PtoPXC8MmB5VwfHFNhVTynATLSHLzq5MgF

If you're interested in setting up a P2Pool node, the source code is on GitHub: ghostlander/p2pool-neoscrypt

Enjoy!

For those interested...
We've Reopened our pool with the new client v0.6.5.0 and upgraded the pool to use Vardiff Stratum

Good to see you around again. Added links to your pool on the site and forum.

Where is the wallet.dat file located?
I'm looking in Users\Username\AppData\Roaming but I can't find any PXC directory there?

In the data subdirectory of where you have installed Phoenixcoin. README.txt explains it well.

[Nutnut]

https://pxc.nut2pools.com is on the latest version too!

Good to go.

The new data directory sucks...  move it back please.

The new data directory sucks...  move it back please.

If it sucks for you, change one line of the code and compile the client for yourself or use -datadir to point anywhere you like. Most users like the new location.

By the way, a native 64-bit Windows build with an integrated Qt v4.8.5 is available now.

Phoenixcoin v0.6.5.1 Released

Although this v0.6.5.1 release isn't a major one, there have been many various improvements made. You a get a better wallet interface, working DNS seed nodes, new RPC commands and options, minor performance and security improvements. Many wallet translations have been de-uglified, though there is a lot of work to do still.

The built-in mining interface for pooled mining has been enhanced with the Stratum support. It relies upon Pooler's CPUminer, so the performance is very good. Those of you who still mine PXC with processors now can do that straight from the wallet. Our pre-compiled wallet binaries for Windows come bundled with the latest CPUminer for users' convenience.

Nice changes...

Now all we need is gravity-well diff-adjusting, and this will become a strong player again. (Still gets hammered by hoppers who tap-out value.)

Join the dark side of the fire!

Our difficulty adjustment is fine, no big problems with coin hoppers. Kimoto's gravity well isn't as good as the popular belief says. There are problems with dumpers and merchants not willing to work with small altcoins, but that's a different matter.

We are working on PXC still, v0.6.5.2 is expected in a few days with the Coin Control implemented and a few security updates.

We have added Phoenixcoin on http://www.crabcoins.com check it out!
