[POOLS] Bitcoin Gold (BTGS) SHA-256 | Active Mining Pools & Network Stats

[BitcoinBTGS]

Hello Miners,

Following the successful launch and stabilization of the Bitcoin Gold (BTGS) network, we are consolidating all active mining resources in one place for the community. The network is currently stable at >1.5 PH/s and utilizes the SHA-256 algorithm, making it compatible with all standard Bitcoin mining hardware.

Core Technical Strengths:

Protocol: Modernized Bitcoin Core with Taproot & Schnorr Signatures enabled.

Security: Native V2 P2P Transport Encryption (BIP324).

Asset Layer: Integrated BGC-20 for on-chain inscriptions.

Fair Play: Hard cap of 26M, decentralized emission.

I. Active Mining Pools
You can now mine BTGS on the following pools with various fee structures and payout methods (PPLNS/SOLO):

MinorPool (Official): https://minorpool.online/#BitcoinGold , https://minorpool.online/#BitcoinGold-S

KlingEx Pool: https://klingex.io/mining/BTGS (Integrated with Exchange)

FewBit Pool:

PPLNS (2%): https://pool.fewbit.online/#Bitcoin-Gold

SOLO (3%): https://pool.fewbit.online/#Bitcoin-Gold-S

BitOfSin Pool:

PPLNS (0.5%): https://pool.bitofsin.com/pool/bitcoingold-PPLNSBF

SOLO (0.5%): https://pool.bitofsin.com/pool/bitcoingold-solo

Configuration Hint:
Most pools use the standard SHA-256 stratum. Point your ASICs to your preferred pool using your BTGS Wallet Address as the worker name.

Happy Mining! 🛠️

Interesting project, didnt know about this fork.
SHA-256 makes sense since theres already so much hardware out there looking for coins to mine.

Quick questions tho, with 1.5 PH/s on the network, what difficulty adjustement algorithm are you using? Per-block like DGW or something with a longer window? Because with ASIC miners they tend to hop in and out pretty fast and it can wreck a smaller chain if the DA isnt reactive enough.

Also curious about the BGC-20 layer, how does it handle fees to prevent inscription spam?

I operate a small pool myself  (YiiMP based) so always keeping an eye on new SHA-256 projects.

Good luck with the launch

Thanks for your interest and the valid technical questions, @gaelium.
Regarding the Difficulty Adjustment (DA):
Currently, the network readjusts every 1,008 blocks, which provides a relatively fast response. However, we have a strategic update planned: once the network reaches a higher level of long-term stability—specifically at Block 100,000—we will implement a more reactive and faster DA algorithm to perfectly handle the hashrate swings common in SHA-256 chains.
Regarding the BGC-20 Protocol:
It’s coming very soon! We are just days away from the official launch. We will publish everything on GitHub, including the specialized wallet for on-chain inscriptions on the Bitcoin Gold (BTGS) network.
We truly believe that through our efforts, BTGS is becoming one of the strongest and most stable SHA-256 projects. We are constantly developing, opening new markets, and expanding our reach.
We’d love to see your YiiMP pool supporting the network as we grow! Stay tuned for the GitHub updates."
