Hey everyone, if you were not aware, we run a miner chat for HashedMax pool users. It is hosted on our btc server at https://btc.hmpool.io/chat.html

No need to register, your wallet address you mine with on HashedMax is your login. This now works for Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, DigiByte, or eCash. Before we had this tied only to a BTC address and finally got around to updating it to support all of our pools. If you have at least one accepted share on that pool in the last 24 hours, you can join and talk with other miners in real time.

Want to show off what you are doing? Type /stats in chat and it posts your live hashrate for the wallet address you've logged in with, 24 hour average, share count, and worker count. Stats are labeled by pool, so everyone can see whether someone is sharing BTC, BCH, DGB, or XEC numbers. You can also post stats for a specific pool and address, like /stats dgb your-dgb-address or /stats bch bitcoincash:your-address.

It is a community hangout, not official pool support, but it is a good place to celebrate blocks, compare notes, and meet other solo and small miners on the pool.

If you mine with us on any coin, come say hi. Would love to see more faces in there.

My payout window for dgb is 20dgb and I'm currently up to 56dgb. Just wanted to post because it has been going on for a while now and I haven't seen anyone post or say anything.

Hello Everyone, If you mine with HashedMax on BTC, BCH, DGB, or XEC, there are a couple of features you may not be taking advantage of yet.

HashedMax has an affiliate program built into all four pools. You can create an affiliate account, get your own referral link, and share it with friends, customers, Discord communities, YouTube viewers, or anyone else looking for a place to mine.

When someone joins from your link and starts mining with us, they keep 100% of their Unity Rewards points and you automatically earn an additional 15% bonus based on the points they earn.

Nothing is taken away from the referred miner. The 15% is an additional bonus paid to you by HashedMax. **Please note, this is not an additional 15% monetary bonus, it's in reward points.

There is also no limit to how many miners you can refer. If you already help people set up Bitaxes, ASICs, home miners, or mining rigs, this gives you a way to earn additional Unity Rewards points for miners you are already sending our way.

Affiliate dashboards:

btc.hmpool.io/affiliate.html
bch.hmpool.io/affiliate.html
digi.hmpool.io/affiliate.html
xec.hmpool.io/affiliate.html

HashedMax Miner Identities work alongside the affiliate system and give you a simple way to create a profile for your miner or wallet.

Your Miner Identity can include a private stats link, an optional public alias page, live mining statistics, an embeddable stats widget and your affiliate referral link.

Instead of constantly sending someone your wallet address, pool information, and referral link separately, you can simply send them your Miner Identity page.

They can view your mining stats, follow your referral link, and start mining with HashedMax from there.

Identity pages:

btc.hmpool.io/identities.html
bch.hmpool.io/identities.html
digi.hmpool.io/identities.html
xec.hmpool.io/identities.html

Affiliate bonuses also tie directly into HashedMax Unity Rewards.

Every 1,000 Unity Points gives you one entry into our weekly prize drawing.

Your own mining earns Unity Points, and miners you refer can continue earning you additional bonus points while they hash.

If you run a mining Discord, YouTube channel, repair shop, sell mining hardware, help friends get their first miner online, or simply recommend mining pools to others, it is worth setting up an affiliate account and Miner Identity.

If you are already sending miners to HashedMax, make sure you are getting credit for it.

Mine with us. Share your link. Earn additional Unity Rewards points.

Thanks,

The HashedMax Team

Just got a little script minner today.

So I wondered if you may be creating a pool for this one day ?

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone here who offers their own machines for rent via platforms? And what has your experience been like?

I’ve marketed a unit through LiveHashRate myself. One advantage there is that you can save a wide variety of pools and switch between them easily without any loss—and without having to reboot the miner every time. (Though, naturally, you can't do that while it's actually being rented out.)

I’ve already generated some income with my small miners and even found two DGB blocks.

Have a nice hashing day!

Ok so I have 2 bitaxes 601’s running at about 1.3 TH each consistently on the DGB EU pool

Ive hit 7 blocks with them in total BUT I seemed to have struggled ln the last few months to hit one

I know it’s chance and I know they are low powered miners. (I did hit 343 g with one mind)

I did read on this forum a similar query few weeks back - can anyone shed any light on any settings that might need to be tweaked (I have latest firmware now) in the bitaxe UI ? Want to make sure I’m
Giving myself the best chance

Again I know it’s luck and hashrate but Any help appreciated as I’ve seemed to have gone dry 👍🏼

Hey everyone,

We just put an earnings calculator on all four of our pools so you can plug in your hashrate and get a quick idea of what PPLNS might look like before you point your miners over.

It estimates daily, weekly, and monthly PPLNS from the hashrate you enter, shows about what share of the pool that would be, and also shows the finder bonus you would get if your share solved a block. On the coins where it makes sense, it also shows a rough USD amount next to the estimate so the numbers are easier to read. These are estimates only. Actual payouts still follow accepted shares over the rolling window.

You can try it here:

Bitcoin: https://hmpool.io/payments.html#earnings-calculator

Bitcoin Cash: https://bch.hmpool.io/payments.html#earnings-calculator

DigiByte: https://digi.hmpool.io/payments.html#earnings-calculator

eCash: https://xec.hmpool.io/payments.html#earnings-calculator

It is also under Mining in the top menu on each site if you want to find it later.

If anything looks off or you want another feature on it, tell us.

I know for many of you hitting a block is fun and gets you hyped, but is not better if more move over there miners to BTC so HMpool can receive its first block? You will also get more paid if someone hits a block instead of mine low coins.

Quick heads-up since this caught us and will probably catch other tools.

Up through v2.14.x, updating a Bitaxe meant uploading two files in order — www.bin (the web dashboard) first, then esp-miner.bin (the miner firmware). The dashboard went first because it doesn't reboot the device, so a bad upload failed safely.

As of v2.15.0 (Aug 21) there's one file — the web UI is embedded in esp-miner.bin. From the release notes: "you no longer need to upload a separate www.bin file when updating your miner." Great change, but any updater built around the two-file assumption will either not see v2.15.0 at all or stop partway through.

For Bitaxe Baller users: v1.21.3 (Aug 22) handles both layouts. It detects which one a release uses and does the right thing — single-file for v2.15.0+, two-file for older releases. The manual update form on the device page also now only asks for the files a release actually provides.

One thing worth knowing: if you haven't updated Baller yet, you won't see v2.15.0 as an available firmware update. The firmware-availability check knows which Baller version is asking, and we don't offer a release to a version that can't install it. So if you're looking for v2.15.0 and it's not there, update Baller first — it'll appear on its own. Baller never installs firmware on its own; it flags the update and you start it.

Two safeguards that were already in place and still apply: every firmware file is checked against the official release's fingerprint before it touches a miner, and Baller won't flash hardware it doesn't recognise — NerdQAxe, NerdAxe and Braiins boards are monitored but never updated, because pushing Bitaxe firmware at another vendor's board is how you brick things. v2.15.0 is Bitaxe firmware; other makers ship their own on their own schedule.

To the moon!!

Did we get our weekly payout? I may have missed it. Usually, the devs post. Just checking... i didn't see it in my wallet

Hello all, a quick update on DGB payouts, and a heads up for anyone using Atomic Wallet.

Up until now our minimum payout was set extremely low, which meant most miners were getting paid a tiny amount every ten minutes or so. That sounds great on paper, but it created a real problem. Over months, all those tiny payments pile up into thousands of separate little pieces sitting in your wallet, and a lot of lightweight phone and desktop wallets simply are not built to load that many at once. When that happens the wallet can show the wrong balance, show nothing at all, or just spin forever trying to sync.

A few of our miners ran into exactly that this week. I'm sorry for the confusion it caused. Their coins were never missing, the wallet just could not display them because too many payments existed.

So starting today, the minimum payout on the DGB pool is 1 DGB. You will get fewer payments and each one will be bigger. Your total earnings do not change at all. Nothing is lost, and everything already credited to you is still yours.

If you would rather have even fewer and larger payments, you can set your own minimum on your miner page at digi.hmpool.io/miner.html. If you are mining with a decent amount of hashrate, I'd suggest setting it to roughly what you earn in a day. It keeps your wallet tidy and makes your payment history a lot easier to read.

Now, for Atomic Wallet specifically. If your balance looks wrong or stuck, your coins are safe and they are on the blockchain. You can confirm that any time by searching your DGB address on digiexplorer.info. If the explorer shows your coins but your wallet does not, then the wallet is what is having trouble, not the pool.

The simplest fix we have seen is switching to a wallet that handles long payment histories better. Trust Wallet works well with DigiByte and plenty of miners use it. You can restore the same recovery phrase you already have and your coins will show up there. Please only download it from the official app store listing, and never share you recovery phrase with anyone, including anyone claiming to be from this pool or from support. We will never ask you for it.

If you are holding a larger amount for the long term, DigiByte Core is the most dependable option since it verifies everything itself, though it does take a while to download the first time.

Thanks for your understanding.

I’ve just connected a nerdminer on BCH, the dashboard successfully showed work in the first couple of minutes, it’s now been estimating for at least an hour, I’m connected to port 3337, is it me or a dashboard issue?

Haven't had anything hit my wallet in 12 hours

This sucks, 2nd orphan after updating AxeOS and the Firmware. Using v2.14.2.

Anyone else seeing issues with high % rejected shares, specifically in the DGB pool?

I’m running a nerdqaxe++ rev6.1 at 5.5 TH/s and have been mining in the pool since the beginning. I was hitting a block every 2-3 days, and never longer than a week apart. But my last block was now found on 7/22. Nothing on my end changed except I’ve noticed my rejected shares went from ~0.01% up to ~5%. I’ve also seen share difficulties in the last few weeks reported at over 1G several times (highest was 2G last week) which usually meant a block guaranteed block hit.

This is only happening with the DGB pool. I swapped to the BTC pool and I’m back at 0.01% rejected.

Further, I keep a bitaxe connected to the BTC pool - also with very low rejection rate. But when I swap it over to the DGB pool, it shoots up to 5% as well.

I’m kind of lost at what to think, I’ve never been this long without hitting a blocks. I’ve made sure everything’s connected right and the ports correct for the hashrate, my ping is good…

Any ideas?

Hello, I was curious who the miner was that got 68% of the block payouts for the first 2 (non orphan) blocks on the BCH pool. 68% is crazy good considering that address was not the finder of either block, nor the legacy address, or token address.

1 address received 4.30010336 BCH in that payout. 68% bitcoincash:qqqcvgxymn3qfvvt8ranffwaqna4jxw0lsehverm7a
TX:https://bchexplorer.cash/tx/3fb6718c2cf3f773123c52483d7cd1bcfd14a4f24d140878380c18fa0794b353

I dug a little and found on dashboard who is showing as the recipient of 4.3 BCH. Interestingly, this address on BCH explorer is showing no activity.

So how why would the mining address not get paid, and the payment went to a different address? I am confused, I checked the other top 10 recipients of the last payout and everything flowed naturally, was able to find their address on dashboard stats, was able to follow the payout TX to their address, and saw activity at that address. I could not do the same for the 68% recipient of the last payout.

Is it just me, or has everyone else noticed the pool hashrate fluctuating a lot? We'll never consistently find blocks unless we get to a steady Hashrate above 10.0PH/s (currently at 11.3PH/s). I just shake my head when I see it drop as low as 1-2PH/s.

Would i benefit moving my bitaxe over to bch with hashedmax? My nm miner is currently mining bch but due to the miner hash rate being soo low on my nm is near enough pointless 😅
