hiro.suprnova.cc is reporting a pool efficiency rate of just a few %. Messed up or bad report ?

It's showing ~95% for me.

Sorry that is a Frontend issue, invalids from wrong algo are also counted. I will try to fix that later today.

Real efficiency is above 97 %

I really like your pool, I've been on it all night. I did offer another bounty for a second proper pool, send me your HIC address so I can send you 4,000HIC please.

Bad link in the OP (https:// repeated) as Nxt-E is fine: https://www.nxt-e.com/default.aspx?m=hiro_btc

Fixed, thanks for reporting it.

My hirocoin-qt won't sync. It just says no block source available. Anyone know why? I don't see a conf in the OP.

Hirocoin has a function DNS Seed which clients connect to on launch so a .conf with addnodes should not be needed.

Do you have uPNP enabled on your router and enabled on the options in the client?

Try forwarding port 9348 from your router to your local IP address.

We are launched and ticking over, time to work on getting some support around the place. Hirocoin does have a forum which is still empty at the moment, come register so we can organise.

- we need to be closer with another community. means that we need fb page, twitter, reddit thread etc.
- net hashrate is ~1.5gh/s and thats pretty solid i think. so we need a bit more pools. maybe p2p pools if possible.
- we should also be at coinmarketcap before reaching most popular exchanges.
- then we need to be added at much popular exchanges that has bit more traders than current exchanges (nxt-e & nct) so we'll get bit more volume and price should grow up. mintpal/coinedup/cryptsy/bter for example.

I was wondering why my earning was so low this morning ...

suprnova pool is getting exploited !!

Look at the stats:
https://hiro.suprnova.cc/index.php?page=statistics&action=round

1   anonymous   863   3,463   401.27

400% invalid shares is the sign of an exploit of the pool, sending "fake" shares !!!

Please BLOCK THIS USER. The user is stealing our work by getting most of the coin !!!

This exploit is not working on this pool, don't be worried.

Invalid shares are not payed, don't be worried, your earnings are lower since more people start mining it and diff rose.

Those invalid shares senders are banned automatically after 5 minutes, i've banned those two now manually.

24 hours later and we are on a couple of small exchanges and have a decent pool. It has been a good start for Hirocoin with only a couple of users having technical issues. We are 1,000 blocks away from KGW and our difficulty is set to 14 at the moment. Network hashrate is at 1.8GH which I expect will go up, it is a good time to jump on to a pool before the hashrate and difficulty goes higher.

Hirocoin is a long term effort, X11 may well become a popular hashing solution when Scrypt ASICs become more and more common. We hope to get Hirocoin in a prominent place when this time comes. GPU miners having to leave Bitcoin gave a huge boost to Scrypt based coins like Litecoin. When GPU miners leave Scrypt we would hope to capture as many of them as we can.

The future is going to be bright for Hirocoin.

Have moved to pool after solo mining yesterday morning. Hoping for good things from HiroCoin! None of the usual BS that the majority of the coins have!

Good job Dev!

[Shin2mars]

[mikk2k2]

I know that invalid shares are not paid, but seriously:

Don't tell me that this user isn't trying to fool us. And maybe only a few of the shares he sent are accepted, they might still be fraudulous and he manages to be the biggest shares holder.

He sent 11 millions of shares while the second one only sent 500, c'mon ! He is spamming the pool.
There is clearly something wrong with this user. Even if the valid shares are legit, he is nevertheless trying to exploit the bug.

[badam]

can we please get a clean wallet that does not show any trojan on virustotal.com. I did not install that suspicious wallet...

It is a false positive. I am using it and there is no suspicious service running in the background.

[badam]

i accept false positives in miner software, but there is no reason a wallet has to have a false positive. Original wallet source is clean!

There are many wallets with false positives just check it.

[CHAOSiTEC]

Pool owners, please use the following advice to make sure your not being exploited

in registry template.py

def diff_to_target(self, difficulty):
        
use
            diff1 = 0x0000ffff00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

(based on block.nBits    = 0x1e0ffff0 - in hirocoin src)

and, do this in mining/service.py:122
if (submit_time - last_ts > settings.WORKER_CACHE_TIME or (percent > 10 and submit_time - last_ts > 10)) and not is_banned:

also look at your banning in your config make sure its not set too high, keep it at max 50%

the above line for service.py will ban anyone if they are sending 100% invalids for the last 10 sec
(this will also ban those that try to ddos you with invalid shares)

- if you need reference regarding me, look through darkcoin thread, i discovered and battled one of the cheaters

Yes, please ban that user. Anyone with more than 25% of invalid shares should be kicked out.

If someone can identify the source of the false positive I would be more than happy to correct. Scanning the binary directly it identifies as a BitcoinMiner bug but the miner in the client has been removed as it performs poorly. There are many other coins that show this same issue but also coins that do not.

If you are very concerned you can compile from source, there is a good thread on this in the post linked below. I may move and customise that thread to the Hirocoin forum.
