  gingeropolous
  so how tricky would it be to merge rpc-pay and p2pool
• 15:45
  gingeropolous
  like, if im offering web services, if the jobs i send out to clients is work for p2pool

  I guess you just need to replace how templates are generated for clients?
• 15:47
  DataHoarder
  without checking much in-depth

  gingeropolous
  well, it'd still be a template with my address

  do you follow any tweaks to increase hash rate on windows ? I am averaging around 4.5 k now

  I suppose with rpc-pay you'd want them to connect their miner to your p2pool

  how does rpc-pay work right now? what do the clients' miners talk to?\
• 16:26
  moneromooo
  They talk to the service they want service from. This in turn talks to their monero daemon.
• 16:27
  moneromooo
  For monerod RPC service, the service is the daemon also.
• 16:27
  hyc
  ok so client-side nothing visibly changes
• 16:28
  moneromooo
  Only if the client wants to mine for service. If it's a client that doens't know about this, it'll just get RPC errors.

  (for most RPC)

  off chain micropayments ftw

  In retrospect, it's a bad idea for daemon RPC, given spies will just offer free service.

  yes yes
