Pool
WinPool
Point a miner at the pool the same way the other tools live on this domain. The page is here. The mining connection is a separate hostname, because stratum is raw TCP and this site is HTTPS.
Miner URL
Host pool.dakanoth.com. Username is YOUR_ADDRESS or YOUR_ADDRESS.rig1. Password is x, except on Litecoin: set the password to your Dogecoin address so merged DOGE is paid to you.
| Coin | Stratum | Username | Password |
|---|---|---|---|
| BTC | stratum+tcp://pool.dakanoth.com:3335 | Your BTC address | x |
| BCH | stratum+tcp://pool.dakanoth.com:3336 | Your BCH address | x |
| LTC + DOGE | stratum+tcp://pool.dakanoth.com:3333 | Your LTC address | Your DOGE address |
Dogecoin is mined together with Litecoin on port 3333. It does not have its own port. Pool fee is 1%. Payouts start at 0.001 BTC, 0.01 BCH, 0.1 LTC, and 10 DOGE.
Your miners
The operator dashboard stays on the pool PC. Miners look up the payout address they configured and see hashrate, workers, stale shares, and blocks.
Opens http://pool.dakanoth.com:3334/addresses/…. Port 3334 is the miner page, not a Dogecoin stratum port.
Rent hashrate
NiceHash and other rental markets connect with the same stratum URL. Put your payout address in the username. In the password, d= pins the share difficulty the marketplace asks for.
| Order | Stratum | Password |
|---|---|---|
| SHA-256 (BTC) | pool.dakanoth.com:3335 | x or d=16384 |
| SHA-256 (BCH) | pool.dakanoth.com:3336 | x or d=16384 |
| Scrypt, LTC + DOGE | pool.dakanoth.com:3333 | DOGE=YOUR_DOGE_ADDRESS,d=65536 |
Profit switch
These ports follow the most profitable coin of that algorithm. They work the same in pool mode and in solo mode. Pool mode splits the block with PPLNS. Solo mode pays the wallet configured on the pool PC.
| Algorithm | Stratum |
|---|---|
| SHA-256 profit switch | stratum+tcp://pool.dakanoth.com:3344 |
| Scrypt profit switch (LTC + DOGE) | stratum+tcp://pool.dakanoth.com:3345 |
The SHA-256 switch is port 3344. The scrypt switch is port 3345. Both are already forwarded.
DNS
The A record for pool.dakanoth.com must point at the public IP of the PC running WinPool, with the Cloudflare proxy off (DNS only). Forward TCP 3333, 3334, 3335, 3336, 3344, and 3345 to that PC. 3334 is the miner page. 3344 is the SHA-256 profit switch. The operator dashboard stays on the PC at port 8080.
