This ZIP describes the Zcash variant of the Stratum protocol, used by miners to
communicate with mining pool servers.
This document follows the common conventions defined for ZIPs in [ZIP-1]_.

Motivation
==========
Many existing cryptocurrency miners and pools use the original Stratum protocol
[Slushpool-Stratum]_ [Bitcointalk-Stratum]_ for communication, in situations
where the miner does not require any control over what they mine (for example, a
miner connected to a local [P2Pool]_ node). However, the protocol is very

and the available nonce space [Bitcoin-Block]_. Zcash has made changes that
show original
