Pexa Project Release of Pool Platform – Ryan Hein
Fill out the name. Use a name you can easily remember in order to later identify your pool from the manage panel. This name is used to identify a lot of internal workings of the application. Don’t worry if you need to put a number or something in it, as this is not public. The platform will prompt you if the pool name is already in use.
The next steps are simple. The admin username and admin password are setup to create the initial account in your mining pool in order to manage it within your domain. Choose something secure, as to prevent people from logging into your pool.
The next step you’ll want to do is choose your region. Currently we only support North America, but plans to branch out into Asia and Europe are in the works.
Choose your Stratum’s Region
After choosing your region you are presented with a couple more options.
The mining pool domain name is the main domain name you choose for your mining pool. This domain is used for the website miners to visit and see the front end statistics.
The stratum domain name is the domain name to identify your stratum server. This domain is used for identifying the stratum server.
Note: Currently, we only support miners that have SNI (server name indication) compliance. This gives us the ability to load balance the mining, and add security to the data exchange between you and the stratum server. We worked with T-Rex miner on this to add SNI. The new version of the T-Rex miner is not yet released, but will be given out to the testing team. We will be working with other miners to add this same compliance. Once the domain resolves at the load balancer via SNI, the stratum server can be found.
We currently do not support any integrations yet with domain registrars and resellers to automatically set up your pool and stratum domain name. We most certainly plan to do this in the future.
Fill out your domain identity and choose the algorithm groups for your stratum. Fill out your domain identity and choose the algorithm groups for your stratum.The heavy lifting of developing the backbone of this solution has mostly been completed. Work that remains is expansion and refinement of this solution.
Managing Your Mining Pool
Once you have everything created. It’s time to login to your Mining Pool’s Manage Panel. To find this, we recognize there is no UI to click into it yet; however, using the above domain name you selected, you can simply visit https://yourdomain.com/manage/login to login to your pool.
You should be presented with a screen like this.
Note: Use your Email to login, not the Username. There is a bug in the system we are aware of, and Username logins are currently not working.
After a successful login, you will be granted with this beautiful manage panel for your mining pool.
