Hi, sorry the sub run out for that VPS provided by a contributor, going to sort ASAP.

Pretty sure merge mining HUC with p2pool no longer works - I've not found any blocks for a couple of months now with over 10Th, so have removed HUC from my nodes. Same thing with NMC actually - I'm wondering if it's the same problem, especially now that CRW merge mining isn't working either, as I know they were all coded by domob.

@ domob: Any chance you could have a look?

Thanks  Smiley

not sure but hopefully domob can have a look.
As you seem pretty experienced i guess you understand that when merge mining, the merged mine coin is not sharing hash with p2pool miners, only sharing (like a pool) with the primary coin (bitcoin). So you are going up against DiscusFish (f2pool) basically solo mining. (afaik)

Some Good News - Domob has progressed very well with Huntercore - (based on latest bitcoin core/ namecore). All updated codebase.

Fully Syncs now.

Syncing does seem much more stable and fast for me (on linux, not yet tried windows). Doesn't seem to be a massive improvement but I synced in < 1 day with a SSD.
Also - using bitcoins new pruning, the chain size prunes down to less than 850MB - it can probably be pruned down further but there is a coded limitation of saving 550mb of data (tbh I haven't fully researched it).
It's not ready for use yet as it needs some tweaks and has some limitations, but you can find it here if you want to test https://github.com/domob1812/huntercore/tree/master
