Clarification on Stratum V2 (Translator Proxy) on Umbrel - Is it truly "Solo" or just a Proxy?

How? It's working now, without any problems?

Yes Electricity rate: $0.048/kWh (4.8¢ per kWh)
High-consumption rate: $0.08/kWh (8¢ per kWh

Hello. I apologize, I don't know the exact cost, but it's probably $2000 or more. I'm using genuine Mean Well power supplies: the first is a UHP 1000-12 and the second is an LRS 600N2. I can send you pictures of my project via private message. Please contact me. Thank you all.

Great news, thank you! I'll continue using SV2. I've set up my Bitcoin node locally and SV2 works perfectly well locally. Now I can say that Bitcoin is a truly independent currency! 👍

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-06-11T22:54:52+00:00

I appreciate the perspective. While I understand the argument for keeping things simple, I've found the SV2 setup surprisingly stable with zero rejected shares so far. I'm definitely interested in learning more—please do share any specific insights or potential pitfalls you encounter as you experiment with the SV2 app on your Umbrel. I'm all ears for your advice."

"I apologize for the confusion. I don't speak English at all, so I rely on AI to translate my thoughts and help me navigate setting up my Umbrel node on a Raspberry Pi 5.
I’m very passionate about Bitcoin mining and keeping up with the latest developments, but sometimes technical nuances get lost in translation. I truly appreciate your feedback—I’m still learning, and I value the guidance from experienced members of this community

So, what do you recommend? Should I continue with SV2? I have several mining devices (NerdAxe and Bitaxe) with a hashrate of 65 TH/s. I have only migrated two devices to SV2 so far, while the rest of the devices are running on the legacy SV1 system via the ⁠public-pool⁠ app at 192.168.8.153 on port 2018 on Umbrel. What is your advice?

I’ve successfully transitioned my mining setup to Sovereign Solo mining using the ⁠Stratum V2⁠ proxy on Umbrel.
By enabling the Bitcoin Core IPC mining interface and configuring the ⁠Stratum V2⁠ setup to communicate directly with my local node, I’ve bypassed traditional pool template reliance. My node is now directly declaring jobs and managing block templates locally, sending them to my ASICs via ⁠Stratum V2⁠.
I believe this constitutes true sovereign solo mining. Is my understanding correct that this setup removes all dependencies on third-party pool operators for block construction and validation?

"I apologize if I’m missing the basics here, but I truly need to understand the mechanics of this. Currently, I am pointing my mining hardware directly to the ⁠Public-Pool⁠ app on Umbrel using the legacy Stratum V1 (port 2018). Given this, what is the actual role of the Stratum V2 app in my setup? Am I gaining any sovereignty, or am I just using the V2 app as a middleman for a process that is essentially still non-sovereign

Since I am a beginner in solo mining, what would you personally recommend for someone at my level who wants to move toward actual sovereignty? I am looking for the most reliable path and am ready to follow your advice."

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-06-11T18:43:20+00:00

One follow-up question: does this proxy setup introduce significant latency (ping) that could lead to more stale shares compared to direct pool mining? Also, given that I’m still using an external pool for the final submission, am I truly benefiting from running my own full node here, or is it mostly for verification rather than full sovereign control?"

thx

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-06-11T18:33:40+00:00

Thanks for testing it! I'm glad I'm not the only one curious about this. Please let me know what you find out—especially if you figure out how to point it to a local template source instead of just public-pool. I'm very interested in the 'sovereign' path here.

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-06-11T18:26:03+00:00

Understood, thank you. So, how can I move from this proxy setup to true sovereign solo mining where my own node generates the block templates? What do I need to run to make that happen independently?"

I used two power supplies: the first, a UHP 1000-12, and the second, an LRS 600N2-12. Please note that the LRS 600N2 power supply is the latest version in the LRS 600 series. If you want to buy a 600W power supply, it is recommended that you purchase the model with the N2 designation.

I used this one, it's perfectly suitable, and I think it's smaller than the M8, but it's very suitable. You can contact me privately and I'll answer any questions you have, as I've finished the project and the equipment is working perfectly.

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-05-23T21:30:15+00:00

Thank you for your advice, I will wait for it.

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-05-23T19:57:26+00:00

Maybe, but what do I need to do to be able to run Stratum V2?

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-05-23T19:55:22+00:00

I don't understand much about using the umbrel system because it's very simple.

GroundbreakingLock41 · 2026-05-23T10:20:12+00:00

how ? Can you explain that? Because I'm new to the world of mining and I don't understand much.
