PPS at a 0.1% fee
Every accepted share is credited its exact expected value against the live network difficulty and block subsidy, whether or not the pool finds a block that hour. Variance is ours, not yours.
Pay-per-share at a 0.1% fee, payouts every hour from 0.01 ZEC, and every block mined to a shielded coinbase. Built by miners who want the pool to be the best deal in Zcash, not the biggest cut.
Port 3334 fits ASICs in the Z15 class. GPUs and small rigs use 3333; the difficulty adjusts itself within two minutes on any port, no d= password needed.
Figures as of 22 October 2026. The live site reads them from the dashboard API.
Our goal is simple: the pool breaks even at 100% luck and earns only when luck is on its side. Everything else goes to the people doing the hashing.
Every accepted share is credited its exact expected value against the live network difficulty and block subsidy, whether or not the pool finds a block that hour. Variance is ours, not yours.
Payout rounds run hourly. Anything above 0.01 ZEC is sent, settles at 20 confirmations, and shows on your miner page with its transaction id.
Blocks are mined directly to a shielded coinbase. Give us a unified address and your payouts arrive shielded too. Transparent addresses work just as well if you prefer them.
Our mainnet and testnet nodes run Zakura, the Valar team's Zcash node, with no zcashd in the path. Templates come straight from Zakura and solved blocks go straight back to it.
Zcash is shipping faster than it ever has. We are committed to keeping pace with the teams driving it, Valar and Tachyon in particular: new releases soak on our testnet first and reach mainnet before activation, never after.
The dashboard publishes every block, every payout and the pool's own profit and loss, including luck. If we have a bad week, you can see it. If we have a good one, you can see that too.
Each port only sets the starting difficulty. Vardiff then targets about ten shares a minute per worker, so any miner converges on any port. Starting near your hashrate just saves the first two minutes.
| Port | Made for | Starting difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| 3333 | GPUs and anything under 300 KSol/s | 100 |
| 3334 | ASICs, 300 KSol/s to 3 MSol/s (Z15, Z15 Pro) | 160,000 |
| 3335 | Farms and proxies, 3 to 50 MSol/s | 1,000,000 |
| 3336 | Large farms, 50 MSol/s and up | 10,000,000 |
| 3337 | Hashrate rentals, 200 MSol/s and up | 20,000,000 |
No account, no sign-up. Your address is your login.
Any Zcash address works. A unified address (u1…) gets shielded payouts; a transparent address (t1…) gets transparent ones.

Open pool.zecminingpool.com/miner/your-address for per-worker hashrate, 24-hour earnings and every payout with its transaction id.
Our testnet pool runs the same software with NU7 already active and pays real TAZ. It is the fastest way to get testnet coins.
