Luxor Tcpcipher

Read this in other languages:

• 简体中文

luxor-tcpcipher is a stratum-compatible proxy for establishing encrypted connections between clients and the mining pool.

• Secure encrpyted connection circumvents limitations for clients accessing the mining pool behind a firewall.
• Simple setup. Just install docker, set redirectTo config option and run docker compose up.
• Low memory footprint - works on most devices.

Getting Started

To get started with Luxor Tcpcipher, there are a few requirements for your computer. We highly recommend setting up a machine on-premise in the datacenter.

First, we must install Docker. You can do that here.

The latest versions of Docker on certain operating systems includes docker-compose by default. However, some OS have docker-compose as a seperate package. You can view your operating system settings through the setup guide here.

Once Docker is installed, clone this repo into your local system:

git clone https://github.com/LuxorLabs/docker-tcpcipher.git

Then cd into the root directory:

cd docker-tcpcipher

Finally, you can bootup the entire Luxor Tcpcipher stack with docker-compose.

If you have a Docker instance with compose built in you can run:

docker compose up

If you have a Docker instance with a seperate docker-compose installation, you can run:

docker-compose up

Notice the main difference is the - which references the specific binary we're using.

To stop Luxor Tcipcipher at any time, just run docker compose down or docker-compose down, depending on your system setup.

You can also run the Docker containers in the background with:

docker compose up -d

Tcpcipher Config

Tcpcipher already comes configured to encrypt received data before sending it to the decrypting instance.

To switch the miners over to use the tcpcipher, just update the Stratum URL:

<tcpcipher_ip_adr>:8383

System Requirements

The full Relay installation will require:

• 100Mb of disk space for the docker images
• 250Mb of memory for relay instance

Happy hashing!
