CJA POOL

The short version: if this pool finds a block, everyone who has mined here gets a cut in proportion to the work they contributed. Nobody, including the miner whose share found the block, receives the whole reward.

1. This is a pool, not a solo pool. The Bitcoin network pays a found block's reward to the pool address bc1q0p23…7kmp, never directly to the miner whose share solved it.
2. The whole reward is shared. That means the block subsidy (currently 3.125 BTC) plus every transaction fee in the found block.
3. Every share since the last paid block counts. All accepted shares from launch on June 13, 2026 up to the moment a block is found are included, with no rolling window. Once a block has been paid out, the payout count starts again from zero. The leaderboard keeps all-time totals either way.
4. Shares are weighted by difficulty. Each accepted share counts for the difficulty it was mined at, so a share at difficulty 32,768 counts 32,768 times as much as a difficulty 1 share. Faster miners get higher difficulty and earn proportionally more. Rejected and stale shares count for nothing.
5. Your cut is your percentage. Your payout equals your difficulty-weighted shares divided by all miners' difficulty-weighted shares, multiplied by the block reward. The pool takes no fee.
6. No finder's bonus. The miner whose share found the block is paid by the same rule as everyone else.
7. Paid to your address. Your payout goes to the Bitcoin address you used as your username. Workers under the same address are combined.
8. Paid by hand, after the reward matures. Bitcoin does not let a block reward be spent until 100 more blocks have been mined (about 17 hours). After that, payouts are reviewed and sent on-chain manually.
9. The pool pays the transaction fees. The on-chain fees for sending payouts are paid by the pool, so your cut is not reduced by them.
10. 1,000 sat minimum. Payouts below 1,000 sats (0.00001 BTC) are not sent. Because the count restarts after each paid block, those amounts are not carried forward.
11. On the record. Every miner's share total is saved once a minute, so the split can be checked against the exact moment a block is found.

My commitment: if this pool finds a block, I will pay every eligible miner by these rules. That still means trusting me personally, so unless you know me personally, my recommendation is not to mine here.

By pointing a miner at this pool you agree to these rules.
