ethminer-genoil about open-ethereum-pool HOT 13 CLOSED

Not yet, maybe never. I am not a big fan of stratums fragmentation.

Me neither, that's why I implemented the stratum client following the specification (https://docs.google.com/document/d/17zHy1SUlhgtCMbypO8cHgpWH73V5iUQKk_0rWvMqSNs/edit?hl=en_US).

What you did looks like Dwarfpool's stratum implementation, right? (Dwarfum ;-)

Does that doc really explain what was implemented? Isn't that just a generic stratum doc?

from open-ethereum-pool.

@clintar There is no such thing as stratum spec, all coins are different. Before ETH stratum rush there were several stratum implementations, sgminer, cpuminer, etc. Several stratums from Bitcoin ASIC manufacturers. Stratum is JSON-RPC over TCP and since all stratum implementations for now is just a eth_getWork over TCP and the difference is just a different messages. Initial dwarf's dialect looking good for me so i took it. The rest of pools just tried to lock several miner forks to their own pools.

Right, that's what I understood. Just wondered why he posted that doc?

@sammy007 @clintar
It started here: https://slushpool.com/help/#!/manual/stratum-protocol
It makes a pretty good case for some effort to be made for consistency with all ETH pools.
But, none of them can agree, it seems.

I've already got an implementation that works for every miner, works on testnet fine, but when I tried to go live with it, my variance went to like 630% so I disabled that code. I have a testnet version running at http://eth-testnet.cncoin.farm/ for testing, and it works fine, but I don't know enough about this to know if there could be some issue with live net.

Well, docs/STRATUM.md is published more than week ago and another impl. does not make sense so far. If someone need a miner to work with it, there is more than enough reading.

@sammy007 You make my point exactly - nobody can agree who's "right" or will support a standard for ETH. Instead, you have to use different miners and/or proxies for each pool. Personally, I support Genoil.
Claymore has a good miner, but, not open-source.

Genoil support this stratum version now, FYI

from open-ethereum-pool.

Yeah after nicehash chipped in with a third spec, I decided to stop being anal about it and made a total mess out of my stratum clients. But now it supports all three strata. If that's the correct plural.

from open-ethereum-pool.

@Genoil thanks that you did it in correct way, I believe that miners should support stratum protos, not pools.

@sammy007 In 2016 you said Not yet, maybe never. I am not a big fan of stratums fragmentation. about supporting the mining.subscribe method for Stratum.

I think EthOS version 1.3.3 just released defaults to mining.subscribe for ethminer. I don't know if that changes your opinion.
