Bounty 1: Build STX Mining Pool Infrastructure

[Zk2u]

Extend Daemon's Mining Bot to make it easy to start and run or join an STX mining pool.

Type: Solo or Team
Expiration Date: Good until cancelled
Reward: 100,000 STX tokens to the best entry (winner take all)

Requirements

• Must make use of Daemon's mining bot
• Creation of mining pool must be permissionless (anyone can do it)
• Must be open source

Judging Criteria

• How easy is it to create a new STX mining pool?
• How easy is it to add members to and operate a new mining pool?
• How fault-tolerant is the setup and operation of the pool? Another way of asking this is what is the worst a bad actor can do to a pool?
• Preference will be given to submissions with no/minimal coding needed to start or join a pool. Ideally this is something a nontechnical person could use to create a STX mining pool.

How to Submit

• Create a PR in the Mining Bot repo with the infrastructure you have built.
• Send an email to [email protected] with a link to the PR, and an explanation of what you have built.
• Daemon Technologies reserves the right to require a follow-up call to cover any questions on your submission.
