Title: Protocol used for pool mining Post by: pieppiep on February 03, 2012, 08:35:53 PM I'm trying to find the protocol or api used by the different miners to get work from the different pools but I can't find it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Soap? json? something else? Title: Re: Protocol used for pool mining Post by: Revalin on February 03, 2012, 09:16:00 PM JSON-RPC.

The thing I want to make is a miner. First to test if I understand everything an unoptimized software miner, later a fpga miner. I don't care if it is slow, it's just a hobby project at the moment. With the links Revalin gave I found a C# implementation called bitnet (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitnet/). With only a few lines of code I succeeded to get some work to do and I fully understand the data the function returns so the next step is do some hashing with the sha256 function I already made earlier. |
