Hello,

I'm the developer of Yilacoin, I gave cpuminer link for users who wants to use for stratum protocol which I use and it's perfectly fine, but people are willing to use GBT protocol, see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5381689.msg59012262#msg59012262

GBT support is hit and miss. New coins that use variations of the protocol are likely not going to work because I don't know how. I also don't have the ability to try to support every coin using a new twist, testing would be impossible. The miner would also get overly bloated.

If you have a working GBT client I suggest you fork cpuminer-opt and make a custom miner for your coin.

It's using the same protocol like bitcoin, only transaction hashes including merkle root, block hash and pow hash are calculated using sha3d, everything else is the same as bitcoin.

Thanks anyway.

It must be something else because cpuminer-opt already handles sha3d merke root, it works on stratum. Bitcoin has probably updated GBT and cpuminer-opt is no longer compliant. The bottom line is I don't have the solution.
