[ANN] MON | Monocle | Merge Mined on VTC Vertcoin - No Premine - Scrypt-N

[sammy007]

Should perhaps mention (again) that
if you're the only person mining on your node you can completely disregard the proxy solution, you don't need it.

Just adding

Code:

--merged http://monoclerpc:YOURLONGPASSWORDHERE@127.0.0.1:6888

to the p2pool command line is all you need .

The same if I have N rigs on my personal node with personal network?

Yes, vertcoin payouts will work as normal, but monocle coins will pool up in the nodes wallet. But you can make a simple "sendtoaddress" cronjob that runs every few minutes checking for matured coins if you want to send them somewhere else.

Keep in mind that you're solomining monocle then etc

I´m in.

Hold on, I still need monocled though

Yeah, of course :p

What if in my miner config I pass MONO address as password, it will forward MON to my wallet, right?

[Maestro1]

Will our hashrate be split between Monocle and VertCoin, or will our VertCoin earnings be the same as before, plus Monocle earnings?

Not if mining on your own node (without the proxypool software) - in that case your MON just goes to the wallet on the node.

Same as before + monocle earnings (assuming unchanged difficulty of course)

[gonzzo]

ok setting up my miners for monocle; 2 questions:

1.) which network should i use? i have 4 workers. 3 with around 1,1 mh/s each and 1 with 720kh/s and i will use 4 different vtc/monocle adresses
2.) can or should i use the difficulty adjustment on vtc and mon. (vtc_adress+0.00116414 as user and mon_adress+0.00116414 as pw)

I hope I've made ​​myself clear
thanks

1. Depends which p2pool nodes implement the p2proxy solution - if you can find one on your preferred p2pool network for your hashrate, that will be best. As nodes come online, they should post in the thread stating which p2pool network they are proxying.

2. No, per worker difficulty adjustment will not be possible with the launch solution for public nodes, miners should use just their plain unmodified VTC and MON addresses as username and password respectively.

thanks everything setup and ready to monocle

Sorry to be a pain in the s, but any samples of such script?

Is this more or less what you meant? Thank you!

Code:

#!/bin/bash
if [ $(echo "$(monocled getbalance) > 0" | bc) -eq 1 ];then
      monocled sendtoaddress YOUR_NEW_ADDRESS $(monocled getbalance) "Transfer of funds from monocled"
fi

and add this to /etc/crontab on your Ubuntu:

Code:

* * * * * root /usr/local/bin/monocle_resender

Pretty much, but don't forget that you need to account for fees.

Can you please elaborate on that?

When using a P2Pool, can we use the same wallet address on multiple machines?

Recommended not to (on p2proxy) as it may affect vardiff and result in getting non-optimal sized work. A separate address per rig is advised.

Does vertcoin mining go through p2proxy as well?  Let's say I have 4 rigs, is the ideal solution to use 1 vertcoin address and 4 monocle addresses, one for each rig?  Or is it better to use 4 vertcoin addresses and 4 monocle addresses? 

I'm assuming the latter is correct because the miner can only handle one difficulty, but I'm not sure.  If that's the case, it seems unlikely that the average rig with 5-6 cards can reach the 3 MH/s threshold for the first p2pool network.  Does that have any unforseen implications?

There will be only one merged network , or there will be something like

port xxx for 1st
      yyy for 2nd
      zzz for 3rd

?

will they be updated to the first post for every network, or only one per pool ?

thanks

A node operator can add the merged mining via proxypool on any of the 3 networks, although we haven't tried (nor can we support) trying to do it on multiple networks on the same server. So there should hopefully be nodes on all 3 of the networks that add the proxy and merge MON. Watch the OP for updates to the available pools.

NOTE THE ADVICE IN THE OP ABOUT THE MERGED MINING PORT (9555)

POOL OPERATORS SHOULD POST IN THE THREAD AS THEY GO LIVE WITH THEIR ADDRESS, PORT (WHICH WILL NORMALLY BE 9555) AND WHICH P2POOL NETWORK THEY ARE PROXYING.

[layyen]

I have seen OP, but didnt know, if port will be the same for all networks or not,

I ll wait for updates from pools,

thanks

Yes, unless the nodes choose to change the port in the config, the proxypool software will listen on port 9555, no matter which p2pool network it's proxying for.
