2Miners has launched a Bitcoin Solo mining pool. Bitcoin is the foundation of the entire crypto industry \u2014 and now you can mine it directly on 2Miners infrastructure. The pool is live<\/a> and accepting miners right now.<\/p>\n

2Miners Bitcoin Solo Pool Is Now Live<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin needs no introduction. It is the first, most recognized, and most valuable cryptocurrency ever created. For years, miners have been asking us to add BTC. We finally did \u2014 but not as a regular PPLNS pool.<\/p>\n

Want to skip straight to mining?<\/strong> Point your SHA-256 miner at solo-btc.2miners.com:2626<\/strong> set the worker to your Bitcoin wallet address, password x<\/strong> \u2014 and you are already in the game. The full guide is below.<\/code><\/p>\n

Here is the honest reason we did not launch a regular Bitcoin PPLNS pool earlier: in BTC mining specifically, competing with giants like Foundry, AntPool, and F2Pool requires enormous pooled hashrate \u2014 we are talking hundreds of exahashes. With other coins we regularly outperform much larger pools, but Bitcoin is a different scale entirely. Without critical mass, miners in a small PPLNS pool face unpredictably long waits between blocks, which is unfair to our users. Disappointing miners is something we never want to do \u2014 we always stand behind our pools and the people who use them.<\/p>\n

SOLO changes the equation. In solo mining, your machine works independently. If it finds a block, the full reward goes directly to you \u2014 the pool only provides the infrastructure. No competition for pool share, no diluted payouts. Our job is to keep the servers fast and reliable. That we do perfectly.<\/p>\n

We have been proving this across more than 10 years of running mining pools for dozens of coins. And specifically on SHA-256, we already have three years of experience with Bitcoin Cash<\/a> \u2014 running both PPLNS<\/a> and SOLO<\/a> without issues. The BTC solo pool is built on the same codebase and the same server infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Who Is BTC Solo For?<\/h2>\n
