New P2Pool Node - East Coast USA - NO FEE!
-
@bluebox I should be able to keep it running for awhile. I have considered either a lerger fee or smaller (ie. zero) just because the dust payments from a .5% fee are a pain to deal with.
Happy hashing!
P2Pool Node: http://104.236.34.9:19327/ 0.5% fee

@AmDD coinotron is charging 1.5%pplns, so if you doubled yours to 1% I wouldn’t mind a bit. Rather you (and anyone else) charge what it’s worth to keep things going! Just need more miners on the p2pool node(s)… Quite happy getting what looks like 20%+ more ftc than from coino’s pool — this kind of efficiency is the reason I like p2pools!
-
This is weird in a good way: after just 3 payouts (12 hours), I’m averaging just over 2X what I mined from coinotron in the same time, or 290 FTC/day vs. 138. I know, I know, going to wait for a few days before “confirming”. Even so, at the current sell-off price of .000062 this would be generating $10/day, $2 better than Ethereum @ $9.75/eth hashing on the same cards… goodness me.
Difficulty has averaged about the same throughout the last two weeks, bouncing between 12 and 25. I’ve never seen this kind of difference between pools anywhere before. Could be because I’m 95% of the public p2pool hash, or 38% of “global speed” according to your piechart?.. Either way this is crazy. Crazy good. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

At current usage the operation of a p2pool node never get’s financed with the pools fees. It’s all good will and investment for a hobby of the operators.
-
@AmDD I should have some time tonight to point some miners back at this node. Let me know if you are ever debating shutting this node down, I dont mind helping keep a good east coast node up.
Also it appears the miner stats page isnt working.
-
@RIPPEDDRAGON I doubt I’l shut it down but if I happen to I’ll post here first.
I’ll check the stats page, things got messed up awhile back and maybe that page slipped through the cracks. -
My enthusiasm has been tempered a bit on the p2pool. Payouts in the first 30 hours: 60-70ftc every 5-6hrs. Precipitous decline all of a sudden late Monday night to 35ftc per 14+hrs. No change in pool/global hashrates or diff… weird.
cgminerccminer-djm on one system, normally rock solid, crapped out for unknown reasons late today, guess it didn’t like the returns either :smirk: so I took the other system offline for much-needed updates.@RIPPEDDRAGON I’ll throw mine back on tomorrow if you do, see if having more on one node helps.
-
Looks like we have not found a block in a while and all the blocks found were orphans :(
-
Looks like other p2pools are returning a large number of orphans as well. Thoughts, @Wellenreiter ?
-
@AmDD Just when I went to check things, saw your site go down for about 10 minutes. One of two miners crapped out, probably ccminer again (it doesn’t like losing stratum connections no matter what I do). :laughing:
The ftc p2pool is like solo mining these days. I’m 90+% of the total hash on the node, 80% of the five public list nodes. Don’t know what the average timespan between finding blocks would normally be for ftc, but so far averaging less than coinotron, give-me-coins, etc. Overall hash rate just needs to be higher on the p2pools, at a minimum level, whatever that is…

@bluebox I am actually. I made some changes and the webserver quit. P2pool was running but I had no web. Couldnt get it running so I rebooted the whole server. We’ll see if that makes any difference in orphans. The active miners page is still dead at the moment tho.
-
Not much luck with the Active Miners page yet…
-
'S’all good — everything kept going, even cgminer started back on it’s own by the time I got home. Still ahead of other pools if I hit only two blocks a day. :)
-
Im getting things sorted on my end finally, the heat hit and I can no longer sit around and make extra heat. Looks like we have a few blocks found!
-
Pool was down for awhile due to feathercoind crashing. Everything is back online now.
-
Pool was down for about 15min or so. I updated the server, rebooted everything and also set the pool fee to 0. No fee for this pool! The tiny bit of dust I got wasnt worth the hassle of dealing with it so… Enjoy!!
-
I tried again last night to get the Active Miners page working and ended up coming across a new frontend that I like better which also includes an active node section so I went with that. :)
-
Sorry for the slight blip in downtime, I updated the node to the latest wallet, v0.9.6
Total downtime should have been less than 2 minutes.
All appears to be well now.

:thumbsup:
You are the first one to upgrade :D
I see only one 0.9.6 node on the feathercoin seed node.
I hope many people will follow with the upgrade soon

I can only see two 0.9.6 nodes, mine and another - however I have two nodes on 0.9.6 so far. I can see the Ip of my other node but its showing as 0.9.3.1 still for some reason. Maybe the seeder needs to rescan?
