Ecosystem · Pools and tools on this chainPools, software and services

What exists on Bitcoin BLAKE2b today: the pools mining it, the software you can run, and the public services anyone can use. Listing is not endorsement — the pool table is read from the chain, and the rest is here because it is open and in use.

Live from the chain

Pool directory

Every pool that found a block in the last seven days, identified by the tags its coinbase carries. "DATUM" means its blocks show miner-built templates; "stratum only" means the pool builds every template itself.

Run it yourself

Software

Everything below is open source and runs on ordinary hardware.

Lazarus Key Wallet

A fork of Block's Bitkey app that runs on XBT, so a Bitkey device signs transactions on this chain. Hardware-signed, replay-protected, and it asks for your own Electrum server on first launch.

Lazarus Key → Source →

Bitcoin Knots (BLAKE2b) Node

The node this network runs. Version 29.4.2 or later enforces the current rules, including long coinbase maturity. Install script and reference config in our repository.

Node setup →

Lazarus Prime Pool server

The pool side of DATUM, in Rust: verifies shares, issues the coinbase split, keeps the TIDES window and pays every miner inside the block that earned it.

Explorer Chain

A mempool-style explorer built for this chain's headers, with a public REST API and websocket for live blocks and transactions.

API docs →

Electrum server Wallets

Public endpoint for wallets that speak Electrum protocol 1.8 and understand 164-byte headers.

MCP server AI

Live pool and chain data for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Point Claude or ChatGPT at it and ask about blocks, miners or payouts in plain language.

Mining endpoints belong to the pools that run them. Lazarus's public stratum is a donation, validation and fallback endpoint at 100%, with a grace at 25% then 100%; an own DATUM gateway is 0%. Addresses, fees and setup are on its XBT mining pool site.

The pool's old address, pool.awokenlazarus.xyz, redirects to the new one; the names above are the ones to use from here on.

Trading XBT. Third-party markets exist for this chain's coin; none are run by or affiliated with Lazarus, and listing one here is not a recommendation. Check the ticker carefully before sending anything, and treat every exchange as a place you do not keep coins.
