Getting Started

Point an Equihash miner at the Zcash solo pool. No account. The transparent address is the username.

Connection details

Algorithm. Equihash 200,9.
URL. stratum+tcp://zec.mysolopool.com:3330 (default, variable difficulty).
Rentals. stratum+tcp://zec.mysolopool.com:3331 — NiceHash and other fixed-difficulty workers. Vardiff is off on this port.
Username. Your transparent address, a dot, and a worker name. Example: t1WZvQQ9kM8phRNVay4V1H2Mw5dc7tz2xQ7.minerZ15
Password. x

Use a t1, t3, or tex1 address if you want the block reward in the coinbase. Shielded addresses (zs1 / u1) can mine, and the pool pays those rewards manually.

Quick steps

Point the miner at the stratum server above.
Use your transparent Zcash address as the username.
Start mining. Live speed can jump for a few seconds after a connect, then settle.
Search that address on the homepage to watch workers, shares, and luck.
