Re: [ANN][ANC] Anoncoin (anoncoin.net) | Privacy-centric currency

Hi all...been out of the crypto world for a while. I see there is a new version of ANC...does anyone have the 64 bit non-installable (zip) version?

Not sure right now what version the pool runs but I think it is 0.9.6.12.
Is that still compatible or do I need to update it as well? If so then I will (try) compile the Linux version from the source.

I know the version of p2pool I run does not support the larger TX's but I don't feel like maintaining a different p2pool code base just for ANC than the other coins.

If you feel it is appropriate I can just take down the p2pool node I run.

There are a lot of huge txs, it would be nice if you could merge the patch. it just does a small change and you could even make it dependend on network (ie, only if anoncoin network selected). this way you wouldnt break compatibility with others (i'd add that code to my version, so you could cherry-pick the 2 commits). I didnt ask you to take it down tough Wink

Ok!

I will add the code you developed to my ANC P2Pool node...I believe it is just this one commit?

https://github.com/K1773R/p2pool/commit/6079f026e22ffcfb80a5ac1937005ab2b9d5ccd0

Edit: I faintly recall forestv specifying reasons not to increase the TX size setting but since I don't have any connecting peers the point is moot. Also the benefit outweighs the risk for ANC specifically.

That is correct, thats the only commit you'll need to be able to mine bigger tx's.

xpool.net update to allow larger tx's!

Can you/someone test to see if it is working?

Thank you!

For the moment TX are broadcasted regularly, I did not try a purposeful big TX but the network is behaving well now. Both blocks and TX are on time and the PID work well too I just checked the last 35000 blocks. The increased global hashrate I think is also good (there are about 9 GH/s on the network now which is 50% more than two weeks ago and 5000% more than a couple of months ago).
