This repo is just a sketchbook for notes on collaboration efforts that can be done to enhance mining pools.

To do

Open Ethereum Pools

  • Create SA or Mena nodes for current coins' pools
    work in progress
  • Add estimated earnings 24h
    done, per worker and per miner
  • Add Earnings last 1 Hour
  • Add Earnings last 24 hour
    done, copied [Open-ubiq-pool changes](https://github.com/mapleshadow/open-ubiq-pool/)
  • Add selectable payout schema (PPS/PPLNS)
  • Add stratum 2.0.0 support - done
  • fix worker names to longer than 8 chars. (now 20)
  • add nicehash support to stratum - done
  • add graphing on backend for network hashrate, connected miners, connected workers, difficulty - done
  • fix the toHex build error - done
  • bring pool back to sourced from sammy repo, so all changes can be tracked backwards if needed for fresh builds - done
  • another payout schema
    • in which pool op defines period length, all shares and division amount of reward totals during round happen at end
  • Add ping check with special stratum port, then direct to lowest ping
  • Add helper for estimated earnings in USD, with BTC price from coinmarketcap and a config var to enable or disable the feature (for coins that are not listed yet, or show 0 if api doesn't work)
  • Add worker connected through which node
    done, added value to redis
  • Add worker connected through which diff
    done, added value to redis
  • Add Dynamic Difficulty port
  • Add Solo Port feature
  • Add SSL Stratum completed. can use STunnel for that purpose, maybe?
  • Add Pool Luck Feature similar to
  • Add and Enhance Code documentation
  • Add Multiple stratum region support for low latency
  • Add which worker found blocks ? and maybe on pool blocks page, add which miner found which block
  • Add Email Monitoring, for rigs down to miner (maybe an outside service reading redis)
  • Add Telegram notifications for downed rigs
  • Make website description a variable from config, add few words per page
    • Unit: 'ATH',
    • CoinName: 'Atheios',
  • Create PowerPoint slides (images) showing different components of running a pool and their interactions, services, dependencies, applications, configs, nodes, stratums … etc.
    work in progress
  • Change references to explorer in hbs files, move to environment.js
    • block explorerlink.tx = ''
    • blockexplorerlink.blockhash = ''
    • blockexplorerlink.txhash = ''
    • blockexplorerlink.blocknumber = ''
    • blockexplorerlink.Uncle = '' 
      Done, moved these links to localization (languege) files
  • eye candy data inserted into db
    • shares per worker / period (defined in json)
    • accepted, rejected, stale
    • blocks last 24 hours per miner
    • block finder, on which diff and server
  • Pool Announcements: add announcements to the top of pools, get from json to be there on all pools with exclusion
  • Complete Translation and add Korean
  • On Miners list page, add most used server and diff per miner

Other Ideas

  • Enhance Pools Homepages
  • Pool signup for Listing on coin pages automation
  • Create an installation script/security script
  • Create better methods to ease the install process, its very confusing for new pool ops.
    • Inputs to Consider
      • link to the geth file
      • name of coin
      • abbreviation
      • average block time
      • block reward
      • pool fee
      • RPC port
  • Create better log file analysis features, possibly stored into redis for an admin page.

Server Security Notes

  • Disable Redis listen 0.0.0.0
  • Disable SSH Port 22
  • Disable Login with root
  • Disable Login with password
  • Close All ports except necessary
  • Close incoming SSH connections from 0.0.0.0 except from main servers
