[POOL][Scrypt][Scrypt-N][X11] Profit switching pool - wafflepool.com

[suchmoon]

why does poolpicker.eu still show Wafflepool as mining X13, and how come WP got most profitable pool a few times at the start of the month (last few days not so good...)?? Where are these stats coming from?

If you look at the numbers they're identical to Waffle's Scrypt numbers. Probably some kind of a glitch there.

About PoolPicker
This statistics page works by gathering data from the pools official stats pages and plot then simply plots it in a grid.

Poolpicker is terribad and a totally unreliable way to compare mining pools.  They don't use _actual_ income data, they just parse APIs and scrape websites for pool reported profitability.  Not to mention their graphs break all the time.

@PW

I need some help here, I know we had exploit probs on wafflepool ages ago, anyway here is what is troubling me, u finally got them resolved :

Any idea what this is:
2014-10-13 19:16:37 [Pool]   [diamondcoin] (Thread 2) Malformed message from (unauthorized) [117.25.128.139]: �Cookie: mstshash=g


http://www.tcpiputils.com/browse/ip-address/117.25.128.139

Not much help there, but it is in China

is there any way I can examine the malformed message

I suppose I'll have to have some TCP logging of some sort and wait for another one ... only get it a couple times a day ...

It has to be something deliberate to my DMD port, some sort of exploit attempt ?

I am running NOMP+MPOS ...

I still mine here too, but minimum X11 d=0.008 is still a bit too high for my lower hashrate cards on X11, any setting below this does not take effect and diff resets to 0.160 ...

Looks fine, anything could be a malformed message, as long as it doesn't conform to exactly what NOMP was expecting.  So if you connected and just sent "{a:a:a:a:A:a:a:a:a:]" to it, it would probably break and spit out the same line of text (malformed message).  Assuming there isn't a flaw in how NOMP parses the data coming in, its just garbage data...

have you seen this linux backdoor analysis : https://www.nccgroup.com/en/blog/2014/10/analysis-of-the-linux-backdoor-used-in-freenode-irc-network-compromise/

Thanks

[poolwaffle]

.. snipped ..

I really wouldn't read much into it.  Its most likely just someone scanning around for vulnerabilities and spewing data at random ports/ips around the internet.  Its obviously passing a cookie (something that isn't even remotely connected to stratum), you're going down a rabbit hole looking for stuff that probably isn't there...  Imagine I pulled up a random SMTP vulnerability for a random SMTP server, and fired it at your stratum server.  Your server would say "malformed message", and you can either ignore it (very safely),  or spend a ton of time tracking down essentially nothing.

[utahjohn]

yeah my associate operating EU pool says pretty much the same, don't worry about it

Mintpal is gone. How many coin store in there unexchange yet?

Mintpal is gone. How many coin store in there unexchange yet?

Affirmative.

"MintPal is currently down for urgent bug fixes, and is additionally moving to new management (away from Moopay LTD). A statement will follow shortly."

The question is, when will we get paid?

Cheers

I unfortunately don't have a good answer for that.  Glancing at the coins right now, it looks like we have approx 2btc in unexchanged coins, these coins were all mined within a few hours of mintpal "upgrading", when everything was explained/looked like they would be down for a few hours for upgrades, and then back to working order.  Instead, they have been down (essentially) for a few weeks now, and some of the coins that were sent while they were upgrading still haven't shown up in the account.

At this point, I honestly don't know whats going on over there.  The original site was working fine, and then they botch an upgrade pretty majorly, and now they're either closing down, or changing management (@moolah_io on twitter seems like he's saying completely different things about what is happening every few hours).

Essentially if the exchange comes back up and our deposits show up, we'll withdraw the coins and try to manually exchange them on whatever exchanges support those coins (if there are any).  If we can't recover those coins (way too early to tell) they'll probably be written off, as there really isn't much we can do there.

tldr; we wait and see for now.

But the reject radio is growing big.

[tr0ubles0me]

Is there some problem with the pool right now?

[chasmacd]

Is there some problem with the pool right now?

Had high rejects on eu.wafflepool.com (Job not found errors) switched to useast and it's all good

[woytas]

eu and us are the same for me, getting 30-50% rejects due to job not found, it looks like the same issue from couple of weeks before (some hardware problems  if I remember correctly)

http://wafflepool.com/miner/112osU8zqMs72oWRRKBDNruZ7qi3dYuHXL

Almost 50% of the pool hash power in X11.

https://blockchain.info/address/15gpA7b3sBncTiVmAnWJKygL3qHYxaY8A4

Total Received    14,169.3690496 BTC   (over 14000 BTC !!)

Humm...  Looking at it, that seems to be an address of the pool, as it frequently sends BTC to a larger number of recipients (over 400 recipients), and I do recognize some of those transactions!

I'm sorry if one of the pool addresses became public and that wasn't wanted, WP.  (Well, that wasn't too difficult to find out, as that's the address the payments were coming from. )

All that being said, that's a rather large collection of GPUs, there!  It would be the equivalent of about 6,700  (over six thousands seven hundred)  7950s!
I'm impressed, and would love to see that in action. 

Or, are there any X11 ASICs existing yet?

Must be some sort of ASIC/FPGA, I didn't know gods are mining

Just imagine the power plant, amazing.

is there any way to check payouts older than 7 days?
what are those 0 BTC payouts that appear with the real payouts (with same tx id)?

thanks
