🛠️ Spin up Bitcoin Knots DATUM Gateway in Docker Compose. No more juggling configs — just docker-compose up and you're live with a proper Bitcoin node Datum Gateway. Built this for myself, but figured someone else might want it. Run infra, not drama github.com/electricalgrade/b…

My Bitcoin knots node is updated , datum pointing to new node and small miners are back into business I don’t download exe, I build from sources I also have docker support and can launch knots and datum using docker compose

This is the beauty of datum You have your own node and gateway ..

Akshually... when the workers are behind DATUM, I actually don't have that information. They're solo mining the block on their own. The UA doesn't need reporting to the pool. I this case the miner came forward and said it was a QAxe .

Working with the debian team to make it as simple as "sudo apt install datum-gateway"

Noise protocol is used in stratum v2 for connection handshake and further communication First prototyped this in python. Datum gateway is C So started with noise-c. Got the basic handshake with NX working between server and client I will post more details on Nostr

DATUM SV2 update. built a bridge so that my sv1 miner can connect to my sv2 implementation.. made some baby steps miner(sv1)->Bridge(sv1->sv2)->dummy SV2 Stratum session id: b10cf00c1 {"id": 2, "method": "mining.authorize", "params": ["", ""]} 👇

Now on bridge [sv1] -> ('0.0.0.0', 54730) {"id":null,"method":"mining.set_difficulty","params":[1024]} [sv1] (seed) dummy job_id=e1ad9163 ntime=68a549f7 [sv1] -> ('0.0.0.0', 54730) {"id":null,"method":"mining.notify","params":

Now that my basic setup is ready I can start focusing on the SV2 implementation and adding features.. Without testing its all shooting in dark.. hence wanted to flow flush this..

Mining on OCEAN _without_ DATUM is, like CKPool, not solo mining. Mining on OCEAN _with_ DATUM is solo mining and good for Bitcoin. Sharing rewards w/ DATUM is also good for Bitcoin more than lottery solo mining: you enable other miners to solo mine also by reducing their variance, and make your own solo mining operation sustainable.

🧠 Just built a lightweight Heartbeat Dashboard for monitoring Datum Gateway ⛏️ Designed to auto-check active clients from journal logs and optionally restart the gateway. 🖥️ Web dashboard auto backoff warning when no miners connected. github.com/electricalgrade/d…
