Bitcoin Mining Pool DMND Mines First Known Stratum V2 Block

Bitcoin mining pool DMND has mined the first known Bitcoin block produced using the Stratum V2 protocol, a technical milestone that shifts control over block construction from pools to individual miners. The block — number 955,318 — was mined through DMND’s pool for GoMining*, which became the first miner to use Stratum V2’s Job Declaration feature to select its own transactions and build its own block template, according to a note shared with Bitcoin Magazine.

Note: *this is in no way an endorsement of GoMining, I personally this it is a scammy company, fleecing their own customers** but the achievement is IMHO still Bitcoin history books worthy.
