"We're proud to support the broader adoption of Stratum V2. Aligning around an open, interoperable standard enables the industry to collaborate more effectively and drive improvements in efficiency, security and decentralization."
"Decentralization is core to our mission. Stratum V2 supports this by enabling miner-constructed templates, while also improving efficiency, especially for miners in bandwidth-constrained environments."
"Stratum v2 supports mechanisms for more efficient management of large fleets of miners, is end-to-end encrypted, and allows individual miners to produce their own block templates with supporting pools (among other features)."
The Stratum v2 Working Group announced that ANTPOOL, Block Inc, F2Pool, Foundry, Spiderpool, MARA Foundation, and DMND have joined as members. Founded in 2022 by Braiins and Spiral, the working group develops and maintains Stratum v2 as an open, vendor-neutral specification for the Bitcoin mining ecosystem. Stratum v2 is an upgraded protocol offering significant efficiency gains, privacy, security, and functionality improvements that enhance mining decentralization. The addition of these substantial mining ecosystem players represents major progress toward ensuring proper functioning and compatibility across large-scale mining operations. This expansion demonstrates growing consensus within the mining industry that Stratum v2 represents the future direction. The protocol supports efficient fleet management, end-to-end encryption, and allows individual miners to construct their own block templates with pool support.
