Solo mine Nito
Point your SHA-256 miner at our stratum. There's no fee and no account. If your miner finds a block, the whole block reward goes straight to your Nito address.
Connection settings

stratum+tcp://stratum.nito.tools:3333- Username

nito1q…yourAddress.bitaxe1 - Password

On a Bitaxe or NerdAxe, enter stratum.nito.tools as the stratum URL and 3333 as the port.
Ports
| Port | Use it for |
|---|---|
3333 | Most miners. Share difficulty adjusts to your miner, so small miners like a Bitaxe or Lucky Miner report shares regularly. |
6831 | Large ASICs. Share difficulty starts at 1,000,000. This was the original port and still works. |
Which address to use
- Native SegWit addresses starting
nito1qare recommended. - Legacy and P2SH addresses also work.
Don't use Taproot addresses (starting
nito1p) yet. Support for them is being fixed. Some wallets, including the Nito web wallet, give you a Taproot address by default, so check yours before you start.
How solo mining works
- Your miner works on its own blocks, with your address as the payout. Nothing is shared with other miners.
- Most of the time you'll find nothing. When you do find a block, you get the full reward (currently 128 NITO plus fees), with no waiting for payouts.
- New coins can be spent after 100 confirmations, about as many minutes.
- You can see your blocks by looking up your address on the explorer.
Prefer steadier payouts?
With a small miner, a solo block can take a long time. Other pools mine Nito too, some with shared rewards. MiningBoard lists the pools mining NITO. Check a pool's own site before you point your miner at it.
