bc3.online pays out inside the block you find — the subsidy goes to your address in the coinbase transaction itself and never passes through the pool's wallet. Our only revenue is the block's transaction fees.
Highest difficulty achieved — when it reaches the network difficulty, the block is yours.
PPLNS (Pay Per Last N Shares) splits each found block's subsidy between everyone who contributed shares in the recent window, proportional to work. The right choice when your hashrate is small relative to the network.
When a block is found, the distribution is written directly into the coinbase transaction — one output per participant. No balances held by us, nothing to withdraw. Spendable after 100 blocks maturity.
Your shares are difficulty-weighted over a rolling window of 2× the network difficulty. Payouts below 0.0001 BC3 are folded into the window's largest participant instead of creating dust.
Username is your BC3 address, optionally with a rig name: yourBC3address.rigname — password is ignored. Already running your own miner? Point it at the endpoints above.
The full block subsidy is paid to your address (or the PPLNS window) as the first outputs of the coinbase transaction. Trustless — we cannot withhold it even if we wanted to.
The pool's revenue is the fees from the block's transactions — close to zero on the young BC3 network today. We are betting on the network growing.
As in Bitcoin, coinbase rewards become spendable after 100 blocks (~17 hours). That is a consensus rule that applies to every pool — nobody can pay out faster.
