Block....

Did P2Pool just mine empty block?

https://blockchain.info/block/000000000000000003828fbc61ad281aa2e298ed4a299abf36209a4725d51930

When P2Pool learns that there's a new block, it mines empty blocks until bitcoind gives it a block template.

The alternative to doing this would be to mine orphaned blocks rather than empty ones. :/

Blame bad coding not bitcoin.

Do it right like we do on ckpool and never mine empty blocks ...

Jeze Kano, if it bothers you so much why don't you contribute to the open source code base of the only decentralized pool rather then promoting your own centralized solution in our thread AGAIN...

Better yet, why not grow a real sack and attack the real problem pools mining empty blocks like antpool?

What's your hate on p2pool all about anyway? Or is it just your not so subtle form of gurrilla marketing?

You don't like the truth? ... oh well.

P2pool is written in a language that I can only describe as trash.
Not interested in going near it at all.

It's design is also flawed.

Lulz - you don't like that I'm part of the team that provides the free opensource software that more miners on the bitcoin network use than any other software, or that the ckpool software that -ck and I write is fully free opensource also?
Oh well, go bitch to someone who cares.

Or is it that you don't like that fact that we have NEVER mined an empty block? ... unlike p2pool.

forrestv has above stated that his software mines empty blocks on purpose.

Yes I run a centralised mining pool ... that doesn't mine empty blocks ... unlike p2pool.

Meanwhile people like you try to centralise p2pool by creating nodes that you get people to mine to, rather than getting people to mine to their own decentralised nodes.
There's 'centralised' p2pool nodes ... which is not all that different to saying there's lots of 'centralised' mining pools out there.
