- The P2Pool Starter Stack is open-source infrastructure for private,

+ cut, no custodian, and your mining kept quietly to yourself. Now it's one command,

+ Monero, Tari, and P2Pool run as Tor hidden services by default — no port forwarding, no home IP

+ P2Pool pays block rewards straight to your wallet — no pool operator, no cut, no account. Even

+ One command provisions the node, Tor, payouts, RandomX kernel tuning, and the dashboard —
+ sensible defaults, a preview before anything disruptive, and a doctor when something looks off.
