Look up a miner.

Your page carries your hashrate over 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days, every worker you have ever authorised, your share of each block the pool found, and every payout sent to you. It refreshes on its own, so it can be left open.

Hashrate is an estimate, not a measurement. The pool sees the shares you submit, not the hashes you compute, so it works backwards from the difficulty of your accepted shares over the last hour. Compare it against your miner over an hour, never a minute: over short windows it moves around by its nature.

Rejected is the figure worth watching. A few percent is normal and usually means a clock that is off or a flaky link. A high proportion — and especially a hundred percent — means the machine is computing a different hash than this chain uses, which almost always means a SHA-256 miner pointed at a BLAKE2b pool. It will look like it is working, and it will earn nothing. Which miners work covers this in full.

Unpaid balance is what has been credited to you and not yet sent. Balances are paid out once they reach 10,000 satoshi and carry forward below that. Only accepted shares are ever paid; rejects are shown so you can see them, and count for nothing.

Your payout address is the account. There is nothing to register, no password to lose and no balance held on your behalf that you have to trust us with — which is also why anyone who knows your address can read these figures, and only you can spend the coins. If you want to keep your mining separate from an address you publish elsewhere, use a different one.

Not mining yet? Three fields and you are, with a port for ASICs, FPGAs, GPUs and CPUs alike.
