Is it worth it to try it with s9 homeheaters? What is your recommendation for those plebs who are mining with hosted services? Should we try to band together and ask the hosting company to upgrade? Or wait for more stable release?

SRI has a translator proxy which takes SV1 hashrate and sends it to SV2 pools.
That should allow for older devices (like the S9) to still be included in the game.
A translator proxy could be deployed by the hosted service or by the pleb miner themselves.
If the hosted service deploys the translator, the main innovation will be the ability for Template negotiation with the pleb miners.
If the pleb miner deploys the translator themselves, other improvements should come with it, namely:
  • faster communication while sending shares upstream
  • encrypted connection, which prevents MITM hashrate theft
