<p>The answer is simple'ish.  But a more in-depth one could still be be provided by somebody else, so I wont mark my answer as accepted.</p>

<p>Quark uses 6 hashing functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein) and so these need to found and compiled into whatever p2pool is in use.</p>

<p>I've scrapped off the idea of bothering for now, as there's only 10% left of Quarkcoins to mine, probably why there are so few pools about as it is.</p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-12-01)

I've been trying to mine some quarkcoins pretty unsuccessfully.

I can only find two pools that are up and neither seem to have returned anything, even after hashing for 24 hours.

I thought perhaps putting a p2p quark pool up would be a good idea, but there are no guides anywhere, obviously it's new'ish. There are a lot of bitcoin p2p guides.

Just wondering if anybody would be able to point me in the right direction of what parts of the bitcoin p2p I'd have to deviate from to get a quarkcoin p2p running?
