Mining Pool

[bootz47]

Hello All,

   I'm working on creating my own mining pool. The basic idea is to allow people to mine for charities by setting the username to there prefered charity. Its not aimed at power users, more the hobby/interest level. I've added the ability to add a nickname, town and country by adding them to the charity username seperated by underscores. i.e. <charity-username>_<your-nick-name>_<your-town>_<your-country>. There is also a widget that I'm hoping people may add to their websites (when it looks a bit slicker)

   I'm just curious to see what people think. Does it look and feel right?

   And keen to know how it responds under a little more load than I'm able to put onto it. So if you'd like to give it a go I'd be greatful. You can replace the charity username with your wallet address if you prefer. I'll share the payment fairly between the charities and user wallets, split by share percentage.

   The site address is mine4.com

Thank you.
James.

Thank you. I have the pool working using eliopool. But I'm the sole miner there at the mo; I'm unsure how it will respond to multiple users.

You might think of not going down so many levels.   Use national charities.  Going down so many levels looks like lots of troubles.    Also could take just one from vote per month go by popularity.  Then no worrying about selecting by user.

Is it part of pools fees that go to charity? Or are you saying everything that is mined go to charities?

Hi notlist3d,

   Everything that is mined would go to charity, the user chooes which charity by setting the username to that charity. i.e. the shares they generate go towards the charities total.

   I do like the idea of choosing international charities. My current approach could get out of hand quite quickly. It would be good to just need to deal with 8 or so. I'm wanting to record the shares generated each calinder month and then sending the donation to there registered office.
