09:14:12 Why can't rented hashrate from miningrigrentals be pointed at p2pool? 09:32:49 It can be used at p2pool 09:38:31 https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/monero.social/knbnazAESjLGyXTaRBgXOrCm 09:38:33 Maybe if you privately message the rig operator and ask them to, but by default miningrigrentals does not support it 09:39:37 in other words you would need to pay a rig operator outside of miningrigrentals and hope they don't scam you. 09:41:17 Just trying to understand if thats a personal choice of miningrigrentals or a technical hurdle 09:41:54 I was planning on making a video about renting hash rate for p2pool but also hit that roadblock 09:42:21 I don't see links from matrix 09:42:47 If P2Pool can't use rigs from MRR, then it's a bug and it should be reported to https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/issues 09:42:52 It worked before and I tested it 09:43:10 Its a screenshot of a miningrigrentals admin saying they will never support p2pool and to avoid using p2pool 09:43:32 They don't know what you're connecting to. You provide the URL of your p2pool stratum 09:43:44 You might need to set the fixed difficulty on your p2pool, and it should work 09:43:59 will look into it further. 09:44:23 fixed difficulty can be set in XMRig command line "-u x+1000000" 09:44:39 Even P2Pool's help mentions NiceHash and MRR 09:44:41 --no-autodiff Disable automatic difficulty adjustment for miners connected to stratum (WARNING: incompatible with Nicehash and MRR) 09:44:46 because I tested it before 09:45:19 MRR first tests your stratum before actually sending miner connections to it 09:45:29 Maybe they changed how they test it and detect P2Pool somehow 09:46:06 I will test it by this weekend 09:46:07 IIRC even the default P2Pool config (with auto difficulty for connected miners) should work 09:46:31 because I limit the auto diff to 4M, and use 4-byte diff representation which is compatible with MRR 09:49:27 I'll just need to figure out how to get a url for my p2pool node. I assume I can't just put in my local p2pool IP address 09:50:00 Your external IP address (and port 3333 by default). You will also need to port-forward it on your router 09:50:01 https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/issues/322 16:26:07 For difficulty on p2pool I read somewhere to use 30k for every 1kh. Anyone can confirm that's correct? Even for larger rigs with 1000+ Kh/s? 18:52:06 you can just set the difficulty to p2pool diff 18:52:25 bit below should be fine 19:54:18 Can confirm renting hash on MMR to p2pool works 20:18:27 For MRR rentals, don't set the difficulty higher than 4,000,000. Or just leave it on auto. It will work just fine. 21:36:25 why is that? 21:40:43 because P2Pool switches to 8-byte difficulty representation, and MRR doesn't support it 21:41:01 4,000,000 is the max difficulty for 4-byte representation, everything above it uses 8 bytes 21:41:46 Hashvault pro has an api error now too? 21:43:42 yes, but they're mining blocks 21:43:57 the whole https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero is lagging 7 blocks now 21:44:16 they show 3467882, while it's 3467890 now 21:44:38 updated to 3467888, but still behind a couple blocks 21:45:18 aaand hashvault is back 21:46:53 I hope they haven't defected lol 22:45:52 I made a quick video about renting hash rate. I used moneroocean for my example purchase instead of p2pool though but it hopefully will be useful 22:51:35 So finally botnets are being used to attack, what changes are we looking to make monero less prone to such attacks ? 22:53:30 17.1 % unknown 23:06:55 switching to sha256 so we can be 100%'d attacked
