P2pool installation with pypy -- Linux and Windows Copy and paste the following commands into a bash shell in order to install p2pool on Windows or Linux. Note: I personally only use it successfully on ubuntu18和ubuntu16, please explore other systems or versions by yourself.

Linux:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pypy pypy-dev pypy-setuptools gcc build-essential git

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -O - | sudo pypy
sudo rm setuptools-*.zip

wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/z/zope.interface/zope.interface-4.1.3.tar.gz#md5=9ae3d24c0c7415deb249dd1a132f0f79
tar zxf zope.interface-4.1.3.tar.gz
cd zope.interface-4.1.3/
sudo pypy setup.py install
cd ..
sudo rm -r zope.interface-4.1.3*

wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/T/Twisted/Twisted-15.4.0.tar.bz2
tar jxf Twisted-15.4.0.tar.bz2
cd Twisted-15.4.0
sudo pypy setup.py install
cd ..
sudo rm -r Twisted-15.4.0*

You'll also need to install and run your bitcoin-qt or bitcoind of choice, and edit ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf (or the corresponding file for litecoin or altcoin or whatever other coin you intend to mine) with your bitcoin's RPC username and password. Launch your bitcoin-qt or bitcoind, and after it has finished downloading blocks and syncing, go to your p2pool directory and run

mining case:

Taking Infinitecoin as an example: First download the Infinitecoin core wallet

https://github.com/infinitecoin-project/infinitecoin/releases

Create a new file named infinitecoin.conf under ~/.infinitecoin and edit the following content.

server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
rpcuser=infinitecoinrpcuser
rpcpassword=infinitecoinrpcpassword
rpcport=9322
port=9321

Download the p2pool code with the Infinitecoin parameter added

git clone https://github.com/msy2008/p2pool-n.git

You also need to install the litecoin-scrypt module.

cd p2pool-n/py_modules/litecoin_scrypt
sudo pypy setup.py install

Run Example:

cd p2pool-n
pypy run_p2pool.py infinitecoinrpcuser infinitecoinrpcpassword --net infinitecoin --give-author 0 -f 5 -a i5wmzMYApHC4k6W7cEvoRWA5ouCdcVjucY

If you need merged mining, the prerequisite is that it must be the same algorithm such as Scrypt algorithm, and it must be pow+auxpow, such as Litecoin+Dogecoin or Dogmcoin, Infinitecoin+Dogecoin or Dogmcoin, etc. It cannot be Bitcoin+Dogecoin or Dogmcoin, because Bitcoin The algorithm is SHA256.

merged mining case:

Taking Dogmcoin as an example: First download the Dogmcoin core wallet

https://github.com/dogmcoin/dogmcoin/releases

Create a new file named dogmcoin.conf under ~/.dogmcoin and edit the following content.

server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
rpcuser=dogmcoinrpcuser
rpcpassword=dogmcoinrpcpassword
rpcport=22172
port=22171

Run Example of Merged Mining：

cd p2pool-n
pypy run_p2pool.py infinitecoinrpcuser infinitecoinrpcpassword --net infinitecoin --give-author 0 -f 5 -a i5wmzMYApHC4k6W7cEvoRWA5ouCdcVjucY --merged http://dogmcoinrpcuser:dogmcoinrpcpassword@localhost:22172

Miner setup

P2pool communicates with miners via the stratum protocol. For IFC, configure your miners with the following information

Mining pool：stratum+tcp://(Your node's IP address or hostname):9391
Worker: (Your infinitecoin address)
Password: x

Outdated information

P2Pool Server Node software for Scrypt-N coins. Currently supported:

• Infinitecoin [IFC]
• Vertcoin [VTC]
• GPUCoin [GPUC]
• Execoin [EXE]
• TenfiveCoin [10-5]
• Spaincoin [SPA]
• Rotocoin [RT2]
• Kimocoin [KMC]

Requirements:

Generic:

• Coindaemon >=0.8.5
• Python >=2.6
• Twisted >=10.0.0
• python-argparse (for Python =2.6)

Linux:

• sudo apt-get install python-zope.interface python-twisted python-twisted-web
• sudo apt-get install python-argparse # if on Python 2.6

Windows:

• Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
• Install Twisted: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads
• Install Zope.Interface: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/3.8.0
• Install python win32 api: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/
• Install python win32 api wmi wrapper: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/WMI/#downloads
• Unzip the files into C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages

Running P2Pool:

To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:

python run_p2pool.py

Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on P2Pool-port with any username and password.

If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.

Run for additional options.

python run_p2pool.py --help

Notes for Scrypt-N-Coins:

Requirements:

In order to run P2Pool with the Scrypt-N-Coins, you would need to build and install the vtc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Scrypt-N-Coins uses for hashes.

Linux:

cd py_modules/vertcoin_scrypt
sudo python setup.py install

Windows (mingw):

• Install MinGW: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
• Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/

In bash type this:

cd py_modules\vertcoin_scrypt
C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install

Windows (microsoft visual c++)

• Open visual studio console

In bash type this:

SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS%	           # For visual c++ 2012
SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS100COMNTOOLS%             # For visual c++ 2010
cd py_modules\vertcoin_scrypt
C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install
