Running Stratum V2

One of the hardest parts of FOSS is understanding users and communicating technical jargon clearly. In mining, that’s harder than usual: there’s a big knowledge, language and cultural gap. On top of that, miners are busy ensuring uptime and chasing cheap energy, not reading protocol jargon. We did our best to close that gap with the new StratumV2 website update. I hope it makes the case that software upgrades can meaningfully improve mining operations, and explains how on a single page. If we missed the mark, throw tomatoes and tell us what to improve! Website is available in 🇺🇸🇷🇺🇨🇳🇦🇪🇪🇸.

New StratumV2 deployment wizard lets you spin up a full mining stack locally, Pool included. Here I’m mining with 3 CPU miners constructing their own templates, connected to the SV2 apps in Docker sending shares to my Pavlenex Mega Inc Pool. Fun little setup if you’re a dev.

I vibe-coded the geekiest PM portfolio website, wdyt? in 30min 🔥🔥🔥🔥

In the past 2 weeks: Auradine_Inc launched SV2 fw support entire productl ine SRI launched major version with tons of improvements and native Bitcoin Core v30 support DMND POOL opened the first ever SV2 Pool with miner selected templates to the public. Probably nothing.

😱 BREAKING: @DEMAND POOL, THE FIRST EVER STRATUM V2 POOL WITH MINER-SELECTED TEMPLATES IS NOW OPEN FOR PUBLIC!

DMND Onboarding

Yesterday we launched a full stack @StratumV2 web deployer for developers who want to spin up Pool and miner side apps locally. https://stratumprotocol.org/developers Would love feedback from devs and anyone comfortable with CLI. Anything unclear? What sucks, what can be better?

Today, we released a new version of SV2 Reference Implementation (SRI). Starting today miners no longer need a custom BTC Core fork to build block templates with SV2. The bitcoin_core_sv2 crate is integrated into JDC and Pool, enabling direct communication with Bitcoin Core v30. This improves the UX and keeps SRI implementation-agnostic going forward. With this release, we’re rolling out Docker support for SV2 Apps, making cross-platform deployments easier and shipping binaries for all major platforms. This is the first step toward a smoother UX. In the next release, we plan to ship UI for our miner-side apps: JDC and tProxy. We’ve split the project into two repositories: /stratum containing low-level protocol crates and /Sv2-Apps for end-user applications. This makes the ecosystem easier to understand, contribute, and build on. Want to test all the new improvements yourself? Use our Web Deployment Wizard to spin up the full SV2 stack (Including your own pool) and share your feedback with the community. https://stratumprotocol.org/get-started (for miners) https://stratumprotocol.org/developers (for devs and full stack deployments)

📢 Auradine just launched Bitcoin miners with native Stratum V2 firmware support, built directly into their FluxOS™🔥
