Hi, I have a coupole of questions...
- Do we have an IRC for the Guild?
- How is the Stratum Address for Merged Mining with Namecoins? mergedmining.btcguild.com 8332 sounds like getwork.. ?
- Why isn't merged mining default, are there any shortcoming if I mine merged?
TY
Since eleuthria might be sleeping (sounds like he needs it):
- #btcguild on irc.freenode.net
- There is no option of merged mining/namecoins using stratum, only via the getwork server.
- As far as I understand, because namecoins are considered fairly dead/out of fashion (the project hasn't been updated in a long time) and so there is little incentive to implement merged mining into the stratum protocol.
