A segwit-capable stratum server on top of hsd. This is a hsd plugin which will run a stratum server in the same process as a hsd fullnode.
hstratum can be used as a hsd plugin.

--stratum-password=admin-passWhile having a stratum+fullnode marriage violates separation of concerns, it provides a benefit to large competitive miners: because it sits in the same process, there is no overhead of hitting/longpolling a JSON-rpc api to submit or be notified of new blocks. It has direct in-memory access to all of the data it needs. No getwork or getblocktemplate required.
It can also broadcast submitted blocks before verifying and saving them to disk (since we created the block and know it's going to be valid ahead of time).
There's nothing to say you can't have multiple hsd-nodes/stratum-servers behind a reverse/failover proxy still. It's only a single point of failure if you treat it that way.
Shares are currently tracked by username and will be dumped to
~/.hsd/stratum/shares/[height]-[hash].json when a block is found. A script
can parse through these later and either add the user's balance to a webserver
or pay directly to an address. Users are stored in a line-separated json file
in ~/.hsd/stratum/users.json.
hstratum exposes some custom stratum calls:
mining.authorize_admin('password') to auth as an admin and
mining.add_user('username', 'password') to create a user during runtime.
