[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

LuckyDogPool: https://luckydogpool.com/

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."

New Android Wallet Now On GetHub : https://github.com/BTGSCOINDEV/BTGS/releases/tag/v30.2.1

We would like to reassure all users regarding the latest release Android Wallet :
Regarding the "BTC" Ticker: If you see "BTC" displayed in the wallet interface, please do not be alarmed. The application is fully functional and operating on the BTGS network. This is purely a display bug in the naming labels and does not affect your funds or the network's integrity.
Transactions: You can continue to send and receive BTGS coins securely and without any issues.
Upcoming Update: We are already working on an upcoming update that will permanently resolve these naming display issues, enable live price tracking, and further improve the overall user experience.
⚠️ Critical Security Reminder:
Please keep your Seed Phrase in a safe and secure location. Never share it with anyone under any circumstances. Your seed phrase is the only key to your wallet; if you lose it or share it, your funds may be permanently lost.
Thank you for your patience and ongoing support!

BTC payouts are processed once a day for balances above 0.00075
Payouts for all other currencies are made automatically every 4 hours for balances above 0.05 and balances more than 0.0125 are included in one of the payouts each day.

- Sample configurations -
To mine sha256 and get paid in BTGS:

Code:

-a sha256 -o stratum+tcp://sha256.mine.zpool.ca:3333 -u BTGS_ADDRESS -p c=BTGS

Exchange to BTC:

Code:

-a sha256 -o stratum+tcp://sha256.mine.zpool.ca:3333 -u BTC_ADDRESS -p c=BTC

All of our ports are NiceHash friendly, no need to specify any extra details

SSL/TLS is available for all ports. Simply prepend the port with a 5. Example for sha256: 53333
