right, but i think that’s still stratumV2 haha. basically you need 1 or more miners behind a bitcoin core node, and the core node creates block templates. the benefit i see here is you can choose for yourself in stratumv2 how cooperative vs decentralised you want to be.

not saying fedipool is a bad idea, or stratumv2 is better. just trying to understand if fedipool adds anything new, and it doesn’t seem like it does. but maybe fedipool gets more traction?
