Keep your private keys
Only public payout addresses are used. Never enter recovery phrases, private keys or wallet passwords in a pool configuration.
How to merged mine.
Use one SHA-256d miner to work on BCH parent blocks and VMESH auxiliary blocks. Below is the planned configuration, pending final end-to-end testing.
Stratum is not accepting miners yet. The following endpoint and credential layout are a planned configuration, not a working connection. Do not direct paid or rented hashrate here until the launch announcement.
01
Prepare SHA-256d hardware
Use a compatible ASIC miner or mining proxy. Both networks share the SHA-256d proof-of-work algorithm.
02
Prepare two receiving addresses
You need your own BCH CashAddr (starts with bitcoincash:) and a VMESH mainnet address (starts with vm1). Do not use an exchange deposit address unless you have confirmed it supports direct mined rewards.
03
Configure your ASIC after launch
Set the Stratum URL and individual addresses. The final miner authentication format will be documented after integration testing.
04
Monitor independent blocks
Shares are not guaranteed rewards. Valid BCH parent solutions and VMESH AuxPoW solutions are evaluated against separate targets.
BEFORE YOU CONNECT
Safety checklist
Solo means variance
You can mine for long periods without a BCH block. VMESH results depend on the child difficulty and proof acceptance.
Track confirmed rewards
Blocks are independently validated by the BCH and VMESH networks. Maturity and confirmations apply before outputs can be spent.
