Merged Mining Fork #Description Stratum-mining is a pooled mining protocol. It is a replacement for getwork based pooling servers by allowing clients to generate work. The stratum protocol is described here in full detail.
This is a implementation of stratum-mining for scrypt based coins. It is compatible with MPOS as it complies with the standards of pushpool. The end goal is to build on these standards to come up with a more stable solution.
The goal is to make a reliable stratum mining server for a wide range of coins unlike other forks where the code is limited to specific algorithm's. Over time I will develop this to be more feature rich and very stable. If you would like to see a feature please file a feature request.
NOTE: This fork is still in development. Many features may be broken. Please report any broken features or issues.

#Requirements stratum-mining is built in python. I have been testing it with 2.7.3, but it should work with other versions. The requirements for running the software are below.
- Python 2.7+
- python-twisted
- stratum
- MySQL Server
- SHA256 or Scrypt CoinDaemon
Other coins have been known to work with this implementation. I have tested with the following coins, but there may be many others that work.
- Orbitcoin.
- FireFlyCoin.
- ByteCoin
- DigitalCoin
- Worldcoin
- Argentum
- Netcoin
- FlorinCoin
- CHNCoin
- Cubits v3
- OpenSourceCoin
- TekCoin
- Franko
- Quark
- Securecoin
#Installation
The installation of this stratum-mining can be found in the Repo Wiki.
#Contact I am available in the #MPOS, #crypto-expert, #digitalcoin, and #worldcoin channels on freenode. Although i am willing to provide support through IRC please file issues on the repo. Issues as a direct result of stratum will be helped with as much as possible However issues related to a coin daemon's setup and other non stratum issues, Please research and attempt to debug first.
#Credits
- Original version by Slush0 and ArtForz (original stratum code)
