Getting started

From zero to mining in about five minutes. Create an account, point your miner at our stratum, and you're done.

How Bitmern Solo works

Bitmern is a solo mining pool. Your miners submit shares to our infrastructure, and when one of your workers finds a valid block, the entire block reward goes to your wallet. We take a flat 1% fee. No shared payouts, no splitting rewards with strangers.

100% of the block reward

Minus 1% pool fee

Direct to your wallet

No custodial holding

5 coins supported

BTC, LTC, DOGE, BCH, DGB

Setup in 5 steps

1

Create a free account

Sign up at app.bitmernsolo.com with just an email address. No KYC, no verification delays. You'll be in your dashboard in under a minute.

Create Account
2

Get a wallet you control

You need a wallet where you own the private keys. Do not use an exchange address — if your miner finds a block, the reward goes directly to this wallet.

3

Add your wallet address

In your Bitmern dashboard, enter your wallet address for the coin you want to mine. This is where block rewards are sent when you find a block.

4

Configure your miner

Point your ASIC at one of our stratum endpoints using the connection details below. Your miner will start submitting shares within seconds.

5

Start mining

Once connected, your hashrate, workers, and stats show up in your dashboard in real time. That's it — you're solo mining.

Recommended wallets

You must use a wallet where you control the private keys. Never use an exchange address for mining payouts.

Stratum endpoints

Copy these into your miner's pool configuration. All ports use VarDiff — difficulty auto-adjusts to match your miner's speed. The number shown is the starting difficulty.

Choosing the right port

All ports use VarDiff, which automatically adjusts difficulty to your miner's speed. The starting difficulty just sets where VarDiff begins. If you're unsure, use the default (highest) port — it works for everyone.

What is VarDiff?

VarDiff (Variable Difficulty) automatically adjusts the share difficulty sent to your miner based on how fast it's hashing. This keeps your miner submitting shares at a steady rate — not too fast (which wastes bandwidth) and not too slow (which makes your dashboard stats laggy). You don't need to configure anything; it happens automatically on our end.

Common questions

How long until I find a block?

It depends on your hashrate relative to the network. Solo mining is like a lottery — you might find a block in an hour or it might take months. Use the calculator in your dashboard to estimate your odds.

Can I mine multiple coins at once?

Yes. Add wallet addresses for each coin in your dashboard and point different miners at different stratum endpoints. Each coin has its own pool.

What happens if my miner disconnects?

Nothing bad. Reconnect whenever you're ready. If you have alerts enabled, we'll email you when a worker goes offline.

Do I need to keep my computer on?

Your ASIC miner needs to stay running and connected to the internet, but you don't need a computer on. The Bitmern dashboard is a web app — check it from any device.

Where is the pool server located?

Our infrastructure is in Dallas, TX (US Central). We plan to add more regions based on demand.
