  • Simple web server to display Monero P2Pool stats

    poolboy is a tiny (~ 200 lines of code) web server that renders a static page with stats from P2Pool data-api.
  • How do I know if I'm actually mining Monero correctly and everything is alright?

    https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool and followed the GNU/Linux guide, which is what I'm doing right now; it's making.
  • There should be a link to GUPAX in the pinned FAQ, please add :)

    Just don't misinform new Monero users: p2pool and gupax are not a mining pool (that is by definition a web service maintained by another person) but rather a mining software that comes with a burden - its maintain costs and self-responsibility.
  • Hard drive full after trying my first mine? Help

    If you choose to switch to p2pool, since you already have Xmrig downloaded you can just download p2pool from here or build it from the instructions here. If you choose this method, in your startup command use the same remote node that you are syncing your wallet to. The preferred method of running p2pool is with your own local node but you don't have the space for it. The other option, which would probably be the easiest option would be to download and install Gupax, it is a simplified installation program for both Xmrig and p2pool and can be downloaded from Gupax.io. When you start it up in Simple Mode it will test the speed and automatically select the fastest Remote node from the list I mentioned. All you have to do is put your wallet address in the Monero Address field start p2pool and wait for it to Synchronize and then start xmrig. Boom, you're mining to p2pool. If you are just mining with one computer or multiple computers with a combined Hash Rate of less than 75kH/s I suggest you mine on the mini p2pool sidechain. There are command line instructions for starting p2pool on the p2pool Github page and there is a quick installation video for Gupax on the Gupax site. Good Luck and if you have issues there are plenty of people here willing to help.
  • app to monitor p2pool?

    P2Pool does not require a lot of resources. You can run the pool on an old computer and connect various clients to it. How to set the pool up is explained here: https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool
  • Mine with a regular gaming pc

    this is all you need , but many people like to use p2pool or gupax
  • with p2pool, how can set up for trusted miner rig only?
    2 projects | /r/MoneroMining | 30 Mar 2023
    Take config.json for p2pool: https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/blob/master/config.json and set your own password. Then you'll be mining on a separate sidechain protected by this password. Everyone will need to add --config /path/to/config.json to p2pool command line, and probably also --addpeers YOUR_P2POOL_NODE_IP:37889 so other miners can find at least one node to sync from.
  • minexmr2.com updated to p2pool v3.1, monerod v0.18.2.0, and ready for Mar 18 p2pool (not monero) hardfork
    6 projects | /r/MoneroMining | 12 Mar 2023
    I turn on N new cloud servers (VPS or bare-metal), on each one I then install the upstream part of the minexmr2 pool in conjunction with p2pool and monerod instances. The miners will be connected here.

  • Reminder: P2Pool network upgrade (aka hardfork) on March 18th, 2023
    2 projects | /r/MoneroMining | 1 Mar 2023
    P2Pool (not Monero!) will hardfork to new consensus rules on March 18th at 21:00 UTC (use this link to convert to your local time). The hardfork is necessary to improve P2Pool scalability and reduce the impact on Monero blockchain. You'll need to update to P2Pool to v3.0 or newer version before this time (P2Pool v3.1 is recommended): https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/releases
