P2Pool v1.8

Recommended update!

Changes:

  • MacOS build: libuv and libzmq are linked statically now to improve compatibility
  • Stricter P2P protocol checks to detect misbehaving P2Pool nodes
  • Reduced overall memory usage
  • P2Pool now uses monerod peers to find other P2Pool nodes when regular methods fail (more reliable syncing)
  • Stratum share counters get reset after initial sync to avoid confusion
  • Better checking for errors in command line parameters
  • Added bans console command to list currently banned IPs
  • Various small bugfixes
  • Updated README

Wallets with confirmed P2Pool support:

  • Official Monero CLI and GUI v0.17.2.3 and newer
  • Monerujo v2.1.0 "Vertant" and newer
  • Cake Wallet v4.2.7 and newer
  • Monero.com by Cake Wallet
  • Feather Wallet v1.0.0 and newer
  • MyMonero

Other wallets might not see P2Pool payouts if they're not updated. Before you start mining, create a new wallet and don't use it for anything else but mining for privacy reasons - all wallet addresses are public on P2Pool! Only primary wallet address is supported - no subaddresses or integrated addresses.

Usage:

  • Run Monero daemon v0.17.3.0 or newer: ./monerod --zmq-pub tcp://127.0.0.1:18083 --disable-dns-checkpoints --enable-dns-blocklist
  • Run p2pool: ./p2pool --host 127.0.0.1 --wallet YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS
  • Start mining to port 3333 on your machine: ./xmrig -o 127.0.0.1:3333
  • You can set custom difficulty for your miner to get more accurate stats on P2Pool side: ./xmrig -o 127.0.0.1:3333 -u x+50000 (it doesn't affect mining rewards in any way)

GPG key to verify SHA256 sums can be downloaded from github or p2pool.io
