HOWTO: Chia Farming on SCALE

[Johan01]

TruePool MainNet pooling servers are LIVE for testing. Our website has also been updated with live MainNet space graphs and farmer leaderboards, with more updates planned in the coming weeks to provide even more transparency on pool server operations.

We are all eagerly awaiting upstream Chia to publish version 1.2.0 with official pooling support, however early testers and adopters can find information on how to get started right now on our Join TruePool page. As with any early access, there is a slight risk of last second changes to the plot format before 1.2.0 is officially tagged, so please use your discretion before dedicating all your plotting resources too soon.

It seems TruePool found its first block today according to miningpoolstats, congrats!

Ooh, interesting. Are plots made for pools today, still going to work when it all goes fully live? or are these just for testing at this time?
So when do the fees apply and how will Truepool distribute rewards? I guess it all depends on pool size and if the pool actually wins against hpool

Plots made right now have a ~95% chance of working on official launch.

The fee apply on top of the 1.75 xch and is distributed evenly based on the estimate of the farm size.

So the block winner gets 0.25XCH-0.0175XCH? does everybody in the pool pay the fee on reward? Sorry, I haven't been able to find an official description of this. Just wondering 1% of what and when it applies, on reward?

Block winner gets 0.25 XCH directly from the blockchain. The pool distributes the remaining 1.75 XCH.
Out of the 1.75XCH, 0.0175XCH is subtracted as the pool fee. The remaining is distributed evenly between all participants of the pool based on the size of their farms (including block winner).

Thanks!! is that the standard model for all pools then?

Most pools operates this way, but they are free to do however they wish. Some set higher minimum payouts so you only get the reward if you have contributed enough in the pool.

They may also steal it or provide false feedback, so its very important you trust the pool, make sure its run by serious people.

Yeah thats why, while personally not a Chia fan, I applaud the choice from you guys to put one together. I pretty much already trust a lot of data towards the work you guys do, so thats a very good foundation to start a trust-relation on for a Chia Pool :)

Chia Farming on SCALE - Update 7/7/2021

Quick update today since I've gotten quite a few questions about Chia farming on SCALE. We've just pushed an update out to the official Chia app on TrueNAS SCALE. This is tagged as version 1.2.0-pre2, which is a pre-release version of Chia that we expect will be tagged as 1.2.0 official in the...

Hello, I'm facing an issue with the chia app on truenas scale. I'm not able to make the pod be deployed as a full farmer (+ harvester, full node, wallet) node, either starts with harvester, full node and wallet up (when I set the keys environment variable), but not farmer or with only the farmer up (when I set the keys and the farmer environment variable as true).

I'm not able to see this issue mentioned anywhere else on this forum. Sorry if this is not the correct place for this.

All these settings, can they be don when chia is already started and connected to a pool?

 

[chinabala]

I am planning to use Scale for my Chia Harvester. Possible?
The one thing I am not sure about, is 'how do I import /ca folder to Scale' to make it running?

I saw this video, and it's quite convenient to do that but can't find any tutorial for Scale.. please help

Since Truepool is no longer, where are the KB docs for the Chia docker image on SCALE? I'm stuck on initial configurations. Where should I go to ask questions as the Discord is also gone, or at least the invite listed in this thread has expired. Thanks.
