Stratum V2 Development & Adoption Update
In short… it’s happening!
Today we’re announcing a working group established with
@spiralbtc to accelerate adoption of
@StratumV2, along with the release of the first open-source SV2 reference implementation (SRI).
This SRI is now available for initial testing, but it’s not a full implementation just yet.
In early November, the working group will release a more robust version of the SRI that will support additional functionality, including job negotiation.
An open-source SRI changes the game for SV2 adoption by drastically reducing the barrier to entry for more pools and firmware developers to implement it, whether by simply using the SRI or developing their own implementation.
Critically, the working group helps coordinate adoption across all mining companies and other compatible implementations both closed- and open-source to ensure that all Stratum V2 projects can interact with each other based on the protocol standards.

Other mining companies interested in contributing to the SRI or supporting Stratum V2 developers are invited to join the working group.

Momentum to push Stratum V2 towards widespread adoption is at all-time highs.
On that note, stay tuned for more announcements about adoption from big mining companies that are in the works.
