Data Bitcoin’s record, to scale
The layers are Bitcoin’s reward eras, to scale: each gold vein is half the one below it. The base layer began in 2009; the thin top layer is the era still being laid.

Three steps to mining
Verify your account, connect approved equipment, check the results.
Sign up
Verify your email to open your dashboard. Add the wallet you want paid and the machines you plan to run.
Connect
Complete the access steps, then use the supported settings in your dashboard. Check when accepted work arrives.
Check results
Check accepted work first. Verify rewards against actual outputs and wallet receipts; unpaid entitlements need separate accounting.
You stay in control
Your keys, your coins
Keep your private keys to yourself. Verify reward outputs and wallet receipts; ask Support about any unpaid or carried entitlement.
Leave any time
Stop new work by changing your pool setting. Keep your records for any outstanding reward reconciliation.
