Setup

Connect your miner in 3 steps

Address-format checking happens locally in your browser. Your address is sent to SoloLuck only when you open your public miner-statistics page or connect a miner using it as the stratum username — from then on its mining stats are public.

1What are you mining with?

Home / hobby hardware

Learn and take part in Bitcoin mining with small home hardware.

ASIC / farm hardware

A low-latency Southeast-Asian solo endpoint for ASIC hardware and rentals.

2Your Bitcoin address

This is your payout identity and your mining username. Format checking happens here in your browser; once you mine with it (or open your stats page), the address and its mining statistics are public on the pool.

Use a self-custody wallet address whose keys you control. Do not use an exchange or custodial deposit address — many exchanges reject direct coinbase (mining) deposits, and you don't hold the keys. All mainnet formats work: bc1q…, bc1p…, 3… or 1….

Note: a found block pays this address directly on-chain, but Bitcoin's rules prevent a coinbase reward being spent until 100 further blocks have been mined (~16–17 hours on average; actual time varies).

Pick your hardware and enter a valid address above, and your exact settings appear here.

Ports & difficulty

No port is fixed-difficulty. Every connection starts at difficulty 4,000 (or the port minimum if higher); the pool's vardiff raises difficulty automatically when shares come in fast, and honors a lower difficulty your miner requests (mining.suggest_difficulty) down to the port minimum — NerdMiner-class firmware asks automatically. The wizard already picks the right tier for you. Curious what the miner and the pool are actually saying to each other? Stratum V1 vs V2, explained.

Singapore endpoint (optional)

Mining from Malaysia, Singapore or the Philippines? A second entry point, sg.stratum.sololuck.io, runs in Singapore and forwards every connection to the same Jakarta pool over a private encrypted link — same work, same rewards, nothing new to trust. Use the same ports: :3335 Nano, :3333 Lite, :4334 Pro. From Indonesia, stay on stratum.sololuck.io — Jakarta is closer. For the TLS tier use stratum.sololuck.io:3334 directly (the certificate is issued for that hostname); the Standard tier (:8081) also stays on the Jakarta host. Pick whichever host pings lower from where your miner lives — block odds are identical everywhere.

Free miner alerts on Telegram

DM @SoloLuckIOMining_bot the command /watch your-btc-address and it will ping you when the pool solves a block, if one of your workers goes quiet for 20+ minutes (and again the moment it comes back), and whenever your address sets a new best-share record. Free, no signup, covers every worker on the address. Send /stop anytime.

Rules & guidance

  • One address = your payout identity. Use address.workername to track multiple rigs.
  • Minimum ~100 GH/s recommended — below that the odds effectively round to zero.
  • Please keep low-hashrate or experimental devices (CPU, GPU, NerdMiner) on the Nano port (:3335) — the heavier tiers are for ASIC hardware.
  • Best-effort uptime, no guarantees. Solo mining is high-variance — we provide the connection to the Bitcoin network.
  • No accounts, no trackers, no third-party assets or ad cookies — preferences stay in your browser; the analytics opt-out uses one first-party cookie.
