Simple Javascript for Mining WITHOUT Proxies? about coin-hive-stratum

[sunk818]

Yes. The JavaScript is for coinhive. It's not a full blown xmr miner client. The proxy translates the missing pieces the JavaScript doesn't handle to regular xmr pool and vice versa.

Ahh, ok, that makes sense. :)

Would you happen to now of any Javascipt XMR miner clients that are available? Specifically one that's pure javascipt, isn't based on CoinHive, doesn't require proxies, etc.

There's a bunch of CoinHive based scripts out there since they got big, just could find anything besides them.

[sunk818]

No I don't know of any.

you cant make net connections with javascript

Coinhive uses a modified Stratum protocol (Stratum is the protocol used by most of the pools, except CoinHive). Also you can't create TCP sockets from the browser, you can only use WebSockets, which most pools don't support (again, only CoinHive's pool supports websockets).

This proxy acts as a gateway translating CoinHive's protocol to regular stratum, also accepting WebSocket connections and piping them thru a regular TCP socket so web miners can get and submit jobs from regular pools.

If you don't want to use a proxy/gateway you will need: a webminer that speaks Stratum AND pools that accept websockets.

If you don't set it up yourself, someone else has to do it for you.

This guy set something up but taking a 10% cut plus whatever the pool takes.

If you plan on doing any sort of scale, you'll end up saving on fees if you roll your own.
