Need help? New to mining? Don’t worry. We’ve got you. Just scroll down to our “Setup Help” section below and we’ll guide you through it.
Setup Help
We understand setting up a crypto miner can feel a little daunting the first time you do it. Let us de-mystify things for you…
The first thing you need to do is access your miner’s configuration page and connect it to the internet. This is usually done via an app or a web browser. Simply consult your miner’s instructions for details.
From there, you will see a section to enable you to configure the miner’s pool settings.
Enter the Pool URL
This is the internet address of the server running our mining pool.
Just copy the URL exactly as we've given you in the box above (including "stratum+tcp:" at the start, and the ":3333" at the end). Then paste it into the URL field of your miner.
It will usually be the first field on your pool setup screen. If you get this field wrong, your miner wont connect to our mining pool.
Username / Bitcoin Cash Address
This is your Bitcoin Cash address. It's used to receive and send funds, including any rewards for finding a block. Think of it as a crypto bank account. It's important you enter this correctly.
If you don't currently have a Bitcoin Cash Address, we recommend a mobile app called Exodus which will provide you with an address for free.
If you have more than one miner, you can append the address with ".BitAxe" or ".Nano" (or .anything you like) to enable you to monitor miners individually.
Password
This can usually be absolutely anything you like. We don't validate it, and most people just enter "X" into this field.
Some miners allow you to enter parameters into this field, like "d=1000", which sets a custom "difficulty". Most miners (like, BitAxe) set difficulty automatically. If your miner doesn't (like the Nano 3S) we will set it for you.
The bottom line, literally... is unless you're an expert, just enter "X" into this field and don't worry about it.
That’s it! Save those settings and your miner should connect to our pool and start mining away.
If you check your device’s app or web page you should be able to see confirmation that you’re connected to the pool, your realtime hash rate, how many shares have been submitted, and so on. Congratulations! You’re now mining on BritPool.
