Hey! i would like to point big hashrates at emc2. therefore i need a pool with a fixed high diff ( like 65536 ) and proportional payout.. any idea?

p2pool - pplns and low diff
carbon.basshash.com - pplns
emc2.suprnova.cc - vardiff
emc2.botpool.net - vardiff
emc2.mateloft.com - vardiff

i even tried to create my own stratum pool with coiniumserv or nomp - but they reject every block ( "The stratum implementation for EMC2 differs slightly due to our donation/block system. " - https://github.com/zone117x/node-stratum-pool/issues/55 )

so does anyone know where i can mine? or how to get nomp working? simply donating 2.5% in every block to EKnqTC9XEuucZEhD3miDGnbJxBptcxhByA will not work.. ( https://github.com/zone117x/node-open-mining-portal/issues/358 )

i think the solution is somewhere here, but i do not understand the code yet.. https://github.com/einsteinium/EMC2-Stratum-Mining/blob/0402833ec347819948b19b241aae454883040188/lib/coinbasetx.py

it is kind of hard-coded.. so can someone explain how to implement it? ( def getCharityScript():
    return b'\x76\xa9\x14' + binascii.unhexlify("1864597a1e6f7e83555b4ec5913d455f4a5002a5") + b'\x88\xac'; )


I cant help you beyond what the github documentation say, and it is definitely hard coded.

But I was wondering, I dont really understand why vardiff isnt suitable? I am pretty sure most vardiff implementation now have a high enough range for anyone

But nonetheless, you can create an account on the pool you prefer and contact the admin, he can definitely lock your diff. (Maybe contact all of them for prompt response)

You may also want to look at the stratum code from the p2pool (https://github.com/einsteinium/p2pool-emc2.git) if you are able to read python and port it to JS for nomp.

Hope that helps.
