v0.10.5.x Masternode Payments Testing (RC2)

[eduffield]

I'm currently patching p2pool and stratum to support masternode payments, we'll start up testing again after I'm done.

----

The fork that everyone has been waiting for is upon us and I need your help to test it out. We have setup testnet with the new code and now we need to setup a similar mining environment to mainnet.

This code includes the following changes and improvements:

• Masternode voting system embedded into the blockchain to form a network consensus of who should be paid and payment code
• DGW3 - fixes all issues with various architectures

We need:

1. A P2P Pool
2. A MPOS/Stratum pool
3. CPU miners
4. GPU miners

Links:

• Testnet block explorer (shows votes per block): http://23.23.186.131:1234/chain/DarkCoin
• http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/rc2/darkcoind
• http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/rc2/darkcoind-pool (if you're running a p2p/mpos pool, use this one!)
• http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/rc2/darkcoin-qt (if you want to run a masternode)

Add this to your config!
delete ~/.darkcoin/testnet3
addnode=23.23.186.131
testnet=1

We need new miners, how does that work?

Edit: Got it, sorry I'm dumb you need miners as in people to mine not new miners as in clients.

 

[Simcom]

I'd be happy to help send some hashes - someone start a p2pool

 

[Propulsion]

This is all for testnet atm?

 

[donho]

will help mining aswell

Good question. I reread evan's post. This is for main net.

I can throw some CPU and GPU hash for a little while.

 

[mattmct]

Freaking awesome. I was actually planning on setting up a p2p pool today. Happy to set it up for this test. Just waiting on my VPS.

I'll GPU and CPU mine!

 

[ErrorId]

Evan, how long do you want to test this for before forking main net? I'll help with some CPU hashes.

I'm hoping you don't take it live for a while yet and let the price of DRK stabilize before turning on RC2 boosters.

Edit: Great job, your baby is finally getting some of the spotlight.

 

[mattmct]

So this means we should update our masternodes to RC2 right?

 

[BrainShutdown]

As soon as p2pool is ready I'll throw some GPU hashes!

Great job

Ok have new wallet on linux running with -testnet flag. added node in config file. Won't sync.

Nope, this code is unstable currently. There might be a bunch of fixes coming

EDIT: Not for testnet. Had to rebuild block database.

Maybe you didn't wipe out ~/.darkcoin/testnet3 ? The blocks have a different structure now

 

[Propulsion]

IRC channel for this?
Edit: Darkcoin-test on freenode

 

[yidakee]

Setting up a p2pool. Might take a while, first time at it.

p2pool has this error

[mattmct]

I'd try setting up a p2p pool, but I see chaeplin is here, with 10x more knowledge than me.

 

[TanteStefana]

I've been running the darkcoind-pool for about a couple of hours, I think, and I haven't mined any coin. should I have run it with a -testnet flag or something? getinfo says testnet true.... wonder why I'm not hitting any blocks. Isn't that the one for pooling resources?

 

[donho]

solo mining on the testnet for now. If someone could send me 1000 testnet-DRK to try to setup a masternode I would be grateful
