Updates

Some updates in the pool and github of the pool:

  • Rewards are fully automated now. When DPoR block receives 110 confirmations rewards are sent to pool users according to their contribution.
  • Admin now has all possible rights, series of impossible and two unbelieveable: can attach and detach projects for any user, delete host, change project status, change pool info.
  • Some bug fixes
  • Project attachment status now more specific: 'just added, sync required', 'synced, not checked, sync required', 'synced, checked', 'remove this project from BOINC manager and resync'. Correct status is 'synced, checked' for your projects:
  • Statuses are now colorful.
  • User can delete his host.
  • Pool stats now with GRC/day and hosts count.
  • Auto project status - automatically changes project status to 'auto enabled' and 'auto disabled' when they are whitelisted or not. (uses 'projects' command from gridcoin research application)
  • Admin can change pool info via web interface
  • Cookie warning added for my pool, I don't know is it required for me or not.
  • PoS coins will be also distributed with DPoR coins. In simple words that means slighly bigger rewards at my expense.

How user interface looks like

You can see this when register and attach (after 2-3 days):

How administration interface looks like

If you curious:

Pool financials

  • Received by mining, total: 27.75 GRC = $0.97
  • Received by mining except me: 0.03 GRC = $0.001 (he mines SETI and WCG)
  • Received by steemit posts: $13.13 + $12.71 + $13.27 = $39.11 = 1079 GRC (theoretically)

Awesome work! Make sure you post these updates on reddit too, you'll probably get the most new crunchers over there.

Ok, I've posted there too

I suggest you post these things and updates using utopian-io, you may get pretty decent rewards from them, but you may have to get a bit more specific about code changes and stuff

And next thing, that's not your fault and i also just noticed this, the gridcoin-boinc-footer uses pictures for the separating line, instead of "---" or ___" which would look like this:


vs the image:

And that somewhat doesn't look pretty well in dark/night mode on steemit, because it has a white box around it

Fixed that lines.

Thanks for idea, I'll check how to do posts for utopian-io.

I know a good web-dev that can make the site nice and pretty for you but he won't do it without a bounty of some sort. I'll have a chat with him and maybe start up a bounty to get him to help out.

Nonetheless I am keen on trying out your pool when I get the chance, it's great to see this go open source!

Currently i'm not sure, if it worth efforts or not. Pool remain working in any case
