Monero Mining

Recently I've taken the docker compose example from SChernykh and have started a p2pool for Reddthat!

https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/tree/master/docker-compose (many thanks here!). After some minor changes I removed the IP listing from statistics and increase the visibility to 100 "supporters". It's viewable at donate.reddthat.com. (if @admin@monero.town wants the code change I can provide diff)

The idea was to also allow people to donate to instances via CPU instead of actual $.

My question for the community is whether I am creating a centralised pool or am I still participating in a decentralized fashion?

It is only decentralized if people run their own instance of p2pool.

Using xmrig and pointing at your node you are just a standard pool.

The decentralized way to do this would be to give people your Monero address and have them mine on p2pool with it as a donation to you.

However you do get an A for effort.
