Zcash Solo Mining Setup Checklist

A first-run checklist for pointing an Equihash miner at this solo pool.

Steps

  1. Use a transparent Zcash address you control (t1, t3, or tex1). Back the wallet up before you start.
  2. Set the miner URL to stratum+tcp://zec.mysolopool.com:3330. Keep port 3331 only for NiceHash or other fixed-difficulty rentals.
  3. Username is the address, a dot, and a worker name. Example: t1WZvQQ9kM8phRNVay4V1H2Mw5dc7tz2xQ7.minerZ15. Password is x.
  4. Start the miner, then search that address on the homepage. Shares and workers should show up within a minute.
