I often feel guilty for being perceived as the pedantic "git hygiene" guy on SRI
but when shit hits the fan and we need to trace back what went wrong, that's when this matters
not even in a "point fingers" or "blame the guilty" way... but simply figuring out how we got there
This is the first mainnet block solved since the incorporation of the Stratum V2 code into the ckpool codebase. Whilst it was solved on Stratum V1, and this has been tested many times in testnet, it is always reassuring to confirm everything continues to work as it's supposed to. The Stratum V2 code branch has been quietly up for a while in the git repository and will eventually be merged into the master branch.
Mine on!

Here's how to create a simple 12 word bitcoin seed using Seedsigner and dice.
Its filmed in real time with a timer running so you can see the entire process & how long it takes
Do you really think this is too hard, or too much trouble for you to secure your family's future?
If you’re ColdCard hack victim careful with “lawyers” on X. They may be scammers.
Contact them through trusted referrals. Never share keys, addresses, device IDs or private information with strangers who could make claims in your name. Don’t hope on calls with unknowns either.
Bitcoin network update. More than 45% of the blocks for this difficulty period that have been mined have not signalled for BIP-110. This means it is literally impossible for BIP-110 to activate by the activation block/date even if 100% of the network hashrate were to start signalling now.
I met group of Bitcoiner at @BOBSpace_BKK. I bought Bitaxe from seller and paid with Bitcoin. I found one of Bitcoiner passports , I helped return it to him.
Stratum V2 is now deployed in production on CKPool across all servers. Give it a try! We're working on SV2 UI new version (soon on @umbrel) that will streamline mining to CKpool.
Great guide from @DMND_Sv2 on giving Bitcoin miners more control.
Miners can now build their own $BTC blocks and opt into Rootstock merge mining through @StratumV2.
Same hashing. Additional rBTC rewards. Paid directly to an address they control.
Let’s walk through several premises that are agreed upon by both sides of the BIP 110 debate.
1. Luke since 2018 has toyed with the need for a proof of work change.
2. Luke has defined any miner who does not signal for bip 110 as malicious and needs to be fired.
3. You can’t let a blockchain stall for days / weeks to figure out what POW algorithm you need to go to after SHA256. It involves writing code, testing, etc.
4. Luke had previously proposed consensus changes after having written the code months earlier.
5. Threatening a proof of work change would be negatively received by existing bitcoin miners / mining pools.
6. Sharing plans of a hard fork basically guarantee it happens.
——
Opinion, my conclusion: Luke has a proof of work change already staged.
@GrassFedBitcoin - how long is it acceptable to have a stalled proof of work chain in the event the miners are hostile?
The party yacht has set sail and we're in our 2nd hour...
You can monitor hashrate @ckpooldev!

So far, the blocks are going to BIG mining. Still, we persist.
This guide sets one up against mkpool using the Stratum Reference Implementation (SRI) translator, the standard tool for the job.
