Yep... I didn't get the patch to the server, I copied the broken one.

When it says sending, I assume that's a share, but then the number of valid/invalid doesn't increment. Is that correct behavior?
I fixed that in the latest.

« on: November 09, 2013, 12:53:48 am »Okay, switched to the new version. I assume /opt stays the same and the fix was in pool_miner?
Yes...
Right now balance != shares_found * pps and I don't know why... so I am looking into it. Regardless I am tracking your share counts reliably.

valid = the number of valid shares you have submitted
invalid = stale shares... note there is alway 1 invalid when you first start up...
balance = your balance on a pay-per-share basis
paid = total that have been sent to YOUR_PTS_ADDRESS (this feature is disabled for now... )
pps: is the number of PTS per share submitted ... this is the variable and pps is suspect right now...

« on: November 09, 2013, 12:25:23 am »Okay, giving this a go. Getting ~31hpm on my Macbook. (up from ~14 with the stock client)
Can you clarify when you will pay out? Thanks.
I will payout assuming that my calculation of Pay Per Share is working properly with the number of blocks the pool actually receives.

Hey, I just made a slight stability fix, you may want to download the latest.

BitShares PTS / Coyote Miner | PPS Mining Pool
« on: November 08, 2013, 11:59:11 pm »NEW POOL SERVER: 162.243.67.4
./coyote_miner 162.243.67.4 YOURKEY
Windows Miner: https://the-iland.net/static/downloads/coyote_miner_0.2.3.zip
Mac Miner: https://the-iland.net/static/downloads/mac_coyote_miner.0.1.0.tar.gz
Linux Miner: https://the-iland.net/static/downloads/linux_coyote_miner.0.1.0.tar.gz
No payouts will be made until 24 hours after you have earned your balance because I have to wait for blocks to mature first. Then I will enable automatic payout anytime your mature balance is greater than 1 PTS.
Note to new windows client users, you must change the address listed in the .bat file or you will be mining to our donation address and the balance you see is the total for all people mining to the donation address.

General Discussion / Re: 0.1 BTC Bounty - Pay Per Share Mining Pool Calculator
« on: November 08, 2013, 10:23:43 pm »I would think you would want to use the diff in calculator heres my idea:
PPS_SHARE_REWARD = (current_per_block_reward/SHARE_TARGET) * current_difficulty
PPS_PAYOUT = (PPS_SHARE_REWARD * PERSONS NUMBER OF SHARES) / TOTAL_POOL_SHARES
Is there any documentation out there of how other pools do it?

General Discussion / Re: $5000 Bounty - Momentum Proof-of-Work Hacking
« on: November 08, 2013, 10:22:44 pm »The cycle algorithm idea is wrong, there's no cycle in the 50 bit hash. The cycle is in 512 bit sha output, but that's equivalent to finding sha512 collisions.
Regardless of birthday algorithm, generating 2^23 sha512 on radeon 5870 (no oc) takes 180ms. 64 bit values and 1024 block makes parallelism on current compute units hard. That's close to output of new intel cpu. So gpus aren't going to win by a big margin, like with bitcoin's sha256.
The collision finding time, even on a cpu, is almost insignificant, 2^26 is a small value.
I'm writing gpu miner as an opencl learning experience. Looks like finding all birthdays in 2^26 hashes is going to take 200-400ms on radeon 5870.
iruu, thank you for joining the discussion. You confirmed my belief that there were no cycles and that the GPU would have a hard time in practice doing this. The whole theory/practice thing is what makes this whole discussion so hard.

BitShares PTS / Re: How Many Difficulty Adjustments before Block Production reaches ~ 5 min?
« on: November 08, 2013, 10:17:56 pm »How much hash power is out there...
25844 hashs/min around block 8000
How did you estimate that because that implies only 1200 computers. Did you factor in stale blocks?
