Get started mining OCEAN

Enter mine.ocean.xyz:3334 into your ASIC interface:

You may need to input something slightly different, depending on your miner. Some examples are:

• The full URL:
  • stratum+tcp://mine.ocean.xyz:3334
• The hostname and port separately:
  
  • Hostname: mine.ocean.xyz
  • Port: 3334
• You may need to refer to the documentation for your mining hardware.

Advanced topic: alternate block templates.

Enter your Bitcoin address as your username, and "x" for the password.

• Supported address types:
  • P2PKH (Original address type. Begins with “1”)
  • P2SH (Multisignature or P2SH-Segwit. Begins with “3”)
  • Bech32 (Segwit. Begins with “bc”.)
  • Bech32m (Taproot. Begins with “bc”. Longer than Bech32.)
• Your Bitcoin address must be exact.
  • Hand typing of addresses is generally not recommended.
  • The pool itself does not validate if your username is a valid bitcoin address. It will not reject your connection if it is invalid.
  • If your username is not a valid Bitcoin address, you will not generate any earnings and will not be able to view statistics for your miner. Any shares submitted with an invalid username are lost.
  • Always double check your stats page to ensure everything is working correctly!
• You may append a short custom workername to the address by using a period (.) between the address and worker name. This can help track your miners or groups of miners more precisely on our dashboard.
  • Example: myaddress.myworkername
  • If no worker name is given, “default” is used.
  • Multiple miners/connections can be made for the same username/workername and they are simply aggregated.
• Some miners may have length limits on usernames. Always check our dashboard to confirm your miner is functioning with the pool after set up.
• Passwords can be anything and are ignored, but keeping it short (ex: “x”, without quotes) is recommended.
