What do you think about Ypool?
« on: July 16, 2013, 12:32:14 pm »
Just found http://ypool.net/

Does anybody know if this is scam and/or if the cpu miner does work?

It only supports win32 atm. So not a really alternative so far.

I agree, didn't register there because of that. But I will keep a close watch to it.
Just wondered if someone already tried it.

There have been several mentions on bitcointalk about ypool being a scam. Don't take my word for it, just be careful.

It seems that they are finding blocks. From what I've heard though, there are ways to "cheat" the system it is using for distribution of work. I have no way of verifying this so don't quote me on that.

It is all experimental at this point. It will be nice when a proven and rigorously tested pool solution is released for primecoin.

I've been mining at ypool.net for almost 24 hours now. I have a confirmed balance just below the 2 XPM min. payout already.

Check there community forum for the jhminer x64 beta miner.  ;)

http://community.ypool.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=5

There is also a script (.bat) to restart the miner every x mins (30-60 recommended) as it is occasionally freezing on some PC's

They are actively working on a new miner to improve on traffic compression by over 80% and massively reduce the currently high level of rejects on shares. They are also working on a GPU miner apparently!

All good thus far. The pool has 3400 confirmations however, whilst they build up some pool liquidity.

I'll keep you posted.

The Getwork protocol seems to be offline. Hopefully it's being sorted out.

The admins are active in the chat box if you register an account. I guess the pools been hit pretty hard, being the only public one thus far.

EDIT: Sorted  :)

jh00 from ypool.net here,

currently we are really fighting with the high demand and performance issues. We are working on a solution right now but it will take some more time. My personal recommendation for anyone willing to try the pool is to wait 1-2 more days until we have the new server structure and miner ready.

Regarding the win32 only miner: By now there is an unofficial x64 build if you want to squeeze out some extra performance on Windows. A Linux version is planned but it's rather low priority right now. However, several users have confirmed that the win32 miner works just fine using WINE without any performance loss.

Glad to see you here and that you are working hard to improve the pool you've put together. I did not mean to sound negative in my post above, I was simply trying to express that I am sure you have a hell of a challenge getting everything working properly and any primecoin pool is very much experimental at this time.

Solo mining has been pretty dry for me the past few days, so I may be giving your pool a shot shortly once you have everything sorted out  :)

Hi jh00 and welcome to ppcointalk.org,

The new pool jhPrimeminer v0.21.1 'Official' build seems to be much more stable so far over the previous build and is churning the shares.  8)

Good job!

It only supports win32 atm. So not a really alternative so far.

10 blocks found per day for the only pool is extremely low...

either this is a scam, or someone already coded gpu miners...or both.
