Description
TL;DR: A defense-in-depth blueprint for reducing hash-rate hijacking, job injection, traffic tampering, routing disruption, and template coercion in pooled mining.
About This Document
Sai Yeswanth Maturi organizes threats against mining coordination, including man-in-the-middle share redirection, extra-nonce or job injection, wasted work, and centralized template control. The proposed mitigations include authenticated encryption, secure key agreement, binary framing, translation proxies, job negotiation, and miner-driven template declaration associated with Stratum V2-style architecture.
Why Bitcoin People May Care
Mining security extends beyond ASICs and proof of work to the protocol between miners, proxies, and pools. This paper is directly relevant to that attack surface, though its provenance deserves an honest note: the PDF labels its journal issue 2021 while the retained catalog metadata dates the record 2026. The document should be read as a technical proposal, not as a protocol audit, deployment guarantee, or proof of peer review.
