I’m looking for people to help test something cool we’ve been working on for StratumV2
I’m forming a small tester group, all you need to have is miner (can be a home miner like bitaxe).
Let me know if you want to join!

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.

Would love feedback from devs and anyone comfortable with CLI. Anything unclear? What sucks, what can be better?
