Solo miners!

This Bitaxe is hashing on block templates made by its own Bitcoin node, using Stratum V2 Job Declaration with DMND. The node picks the transactions. We check the work and pay out.

MARA mined its first Stratum V2 block yesterday — a major upgrade in miner coordination software that the community has been working on for years (more on this in the interview with SV2 co-author @TheBlueMatt below).

SV2 enables encrypted communication for miners, lower latency, and a slew of efficiency benefits for solo miners.

That said, the real magic is in making this technology available for pools — where critical miner decentralization benefits take place — reducing centralized control of block template generation by mining pools.

MARA Foundation has been proud to support Stratum V2 R&D via the SV2 Working Group with @spiral_xyz @pavlenex and others.

Congrats to @avg_gary and the @MARA mining ops team for pushing this milestone over the line.

"Miners are decentralized, just not pools," Corallo said. "If we can shift what needs to be decentralized from the pools to the miners, then it's a pretty huge win."

[Alex Waltz @raw_avocado]

Stratum V2 makes more money for the pool.

JUST IN: Marathon (@MARA) mines its first Stratum v2 block, a significant expansion of the mining hashrate using SV2

[MARA Foundation @MARAFoundation_]

Proud to share that @MARA has mined its first Stratum V2 block 💪💪

SV2 improves mining efficiency, reduces bandwidth usage, and strengthens security through encrypted, authenticated connections. It also enables miners to select their own transactions rather than relying on pools, strengthening Bitcoin’s decentralization and censorship resistance.

This was a major lift for the @MARA mining operations team. Congratulations to everyone involved with this milestone and for leading the way in a major industry transition!

Additional thanks to @spiral_xyz @pavlenex and everyone involved in the Stratum V2 Working Group for their support 🙏

[Peter Todd @peterktodd]

Stratum V2 even has advantages for private pools like MARA. Among other things, by allowing block templates to be created physically closer to hash power, reducing latency.

Bandwidth reduction is useful too: lots of hash power is near stranded energy sources with slow internet.

with AI these MITM attacks are exponentially easier to do

@MARAFoundation_ is taking a big step in the direction of moving away from this attack vector with @StratumV2

[Isabel Foxen Duke⚡️ @isabelfoxenduke]

Most people focus on decentralized template generation when they think of Stratum V2 — but there are arguably even more significant and immediate business benefits for miners making the switch.

I was floored to learn how common man-in-the-middle attacks (explained by @thebluematt in this clip) are, in part because Stratum V1, the longstanding mining communication protocol, has remained unencrypted for well over a decade.

Very proud to see @MARA adopting Stratum V2 and contributing to the Stratum V2 Working Group led by @pavlenex. Thanks to @avg_gary for sharing your expertise here as well!

[Matt Corallo 🟠 @TheBlueMatt]

Big day with MARA mining a block 975369 using Sv2!

[mononaut @mononautical]

MARA running SV2?

[Pavlenex @pavlenex]

$MARA just mined their first @StratumV2 block! 🙌

[Pavlenex @pavlenex]

In AI assisted attacks era, it’s a no brainer to use security properties of the @StratumV2.

[Gabriele Vernetti (gitgab) @gitgab19]

@MARA mined a block using Sv2!

What a great milestone, huge congrats to @avg_gary and all the others who keep pushing hard on this! 👏

the most import skill in 2026 is still being able to tell your agents "wtf is this crap, no, not like this"

if you stop doing that, you're basically fucked, despite what some devfluencers would like you to think.

[Trendou @trendounews]

O https://t.co/88tXZP0VvT sofreu um ataque cibernético "sem precedentes" nesta semana, segundo um diretor do Serpro.

O detalhe: ele contou isso na abertura de um evento de IA da estatal, não em nota oficial. Que sistemas, se vazou algo, se contas foram afetadas: nada informado.

São 179,5 milhões de contas. Transparência de primeiro mundo, né?

SV2 Apps add Bitcoin Core v32 support and block submission over IPC, and continue addressing @ProjectLoupe findings across Pool, JDS, JDC and Translator Proxy.

Protocol library highlights include hardening of buffer_sv2, codec_sv2 and framing_sv2, message field renames to match the spec, and support for application-supplied jobs in channels_sv2. All changed published crates introduce breaking changes except noise_sv2, so downstream consumers should review the release notes when upgrading.

SV2 UI adds experimental Telegram notifications, multiple custom pools, clearer fallback pool status, and improvements to onboarding, logs and recovery. Setup now supports Bitcoin Core v32.

Findings from @ProjectLoupe continue to guide security improvements across the stack. Thank you to the Loupe team and everyone helping turn those findings into fixes!

This milestone introduces our SV2 interoperability project, a new effort to test protocol compatibility across different SV2 implementations. The goal is to catch interoperability issues early, make it easier for implementers to validate their software against the spec, and help ensure different SV2 implementations work reliably together. Contributions and feedback are welcome!

[Stratum V2 @StratumV2]

New Stratum V2 updates are here, with more security hardening and features across our libraries and applications!

🧩 SV2 Protocol libs v1.13
🏗️ SV2 Apps v0.9
⛏️ SV2 UI v0.8 (coming soon on @umbrel )

[Pavlenex @pavlenex]

Proud of the team for shipping these updates 🙌

Here's a walkthrough of using @StratumV2 with @umbrel: solo mine straight from your own node, or build your own block templates while mining with an SV2 pool.
