It's just as worth mining as any other pool. In p2pool your coins are generated instead of paid by the pool. Transaction fees are also included in payouts.

The biggest difference though is p2pool is like a huge cluster. All nodes share payout information so say your primary pool went down if you've set up your miner correctly you will failover to your secondary p2pool node and continue mining like nothing even happened. All payout data is replicated to all other p2pool nodes

Feel free to post any questions you have over there to not clutter this thread.

I've been hoping more p2pool operators would post there and try to build the p2pool hashrate but only Shazeal has so far. /endguildtrip )
