Coyote Miner | PPS Mining Pool

[darkyoung]

Does this work on Ubuntu?

I got this error in OS X 10.8.4. Anyone knows how to fix it? :D

dyld: Symbol not found: ___emutls_get_address
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

Did you move the opt folder to /opt?

Will there be a way for us to tell how many people are mining?

Yep... I am working on adding that feature now and eventually a web front end to monitor it.  This was all developed from scratch in the past 2 days so it will take a bit to be fully featured. 

The beta miner will include user count and global HPM for the pool

Says its missing MSVCP110.dll from the windows build.

Luck is with us, we have already found 1 block :)

Ok... so I have between now and when the next block reward reduction occurs to make sure I get the proper Pay Per Share.   So everyone here can help me out as you are the ones that will be paid.

The target of a share is      0x03ffffffffffffff.....
The target of a block is       0000fff000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

PPS is calculated as  BLOCK_REWARD   *  SHARE_TARGET / BLOCK_TARGET  which according to my calculations is: 0.0397708 PER SHARE.

Invalid Shares occur anytime the provided data is stale... and there is a known bug that you get one 'invalid' count on startup. 

Now ON AVERAGE the pool should be able to pay out .0397708 per share so the way I have tentatively designed the system is to automatically payout when it can and hold a balance anytime the lottery is working against the pool. 

The only remaining variable is how to account for orphaned blocks which effectively increase the difficulty and thus should decrease the average block reward.   I will probably have to allow a couple percent margin for stale blocks in order to honor the PPS system.

OK... We are good to go now.  I had a data synchronization issue between the miner and pool which seems to be resolved in my testing.  I also have Windows 64 binaries ready to go.

thanks
how do i specifiy how many threads to use?

Right now it defaults to 8 for my testing which should work for everyone with a small performance hit for those with only 4 cores.    I will add more options once the core functionality is tested.

8 threads using only 1.3gb ram on my system then.
speed is better than before ;) approx 150%

You are running the old client.

Seems good from my end!

Let me know when you pay out, thanks for your work!
