💡 Use "By Difficulty" if your miner shows optimal difficulty!

Your miner's max hashrate

Bitaxe ~1-2 TH/s, farm ASIC 100+ TH/s

Connection Essentials

Every miner uses the same pattern: wallet address as username, worker suffix if desired, and x as the password.

Username: YOUR_YOUR_ADDRESS.workername

Password: x

Advanced: If you know your miner's preferred starting difficulty, set the password to d=XXXX (for example, d=2048 for a Bitaxe or d=65536 for a mid-range ASIC). Otherwise leave it as x and vardiff will adjust automatically within about 30 seconds.

HMP FairShare Payout System

Our HMP FairShare payout system combines PPLNS pooled mining with a finder's bonus for the miner who solves the block. Every miner earns their fair share based on valid shares — and the block finder earns extra.

PPLNS Base Pay

When a block is found: 1% covers pool operations. The finder earns a 20% weighted bonus — scaled by their active mining hours. Miners who have mined for 7+ days split 5% equally as a loyalty reward. Miners below the small-miner threshold split 8% equally as a boost. The remaining 66% is distributed proportionally by shares in a 7-day rolling window. Credits are routed to your registered your ecash:q... payout address. Balances accumulate until the payout threshold is reached, then sent on-chain automatically.
