Miners
A Slingshot participant is alowed to make deals with any miner available on the Filecoin network and encouraged to interact with a variety of miners. (The rules specify a minimum of 3 miners to be eligible for rewards). In order to facilitate miner discovery, this repository maintains a list of active miners that are used by Textile's Hub, Powergate, and other solutions.
This miner list in JSON format will continue to evolve and clients are encouraged to use this updated list. Please note that this list is not intended as an endorsement and clients are free to use any other miner.
Any miner that meets the eligibilty criteria outlined below can be added to this list by opening a PR or commmenting on this issue.
The eligibility criteria include:
- The node is set to accept deal from any public client.
- The node is reachable (can respond to a query-ask network request)
- The node has power available.
- The node is using the correct lotus version (v0.80)
The list will remove any miners that don't meet the criteria above.
