Mine to your own address. Find a block, keep the full reward.

What it is

mkpool is a high performance solo mining pool written in modern C++23. You connect with your own wallet address as the username. If your hardware solves a block, the reward is paid by the network directly to you. No custody of your coins, no withdrawal delays.

It started as a study of Con Kolivas' ckpool and grew into a fresh codebase. The pool engine is published under GPLv3 so anyone can audit exactly how shares are validated and how blocks are built.

Features

Stratum V1, Stratum over TLS (stratum+ssl), and native Stratum V2 with Noise encryption
Nine chains from one engine, including merge-mined Dogecoin and Equihash Zcash
Per-hardware difficulty ports plus variable difficulty (vardiff)
Local address validation, BIP310 version rolling, full transaction templates
Hardened build, sanitizer and fuzz tested, unit tested

Supported coins

Bitcoin (BTC) - SHA-256d
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) - SHA-256d
Bitcoin SV (BSV) - SHA-256d
Fractal Bitcoin (FB) - SHA-256d
eCash (XEC) - SHA-256d
DigiByte (DGB) - SHA-256d
Litecoin (LTC) - Scrypt
Dogecoin (DOGE) - merge-mined on Litecoin

How to connect

Point your miner at the pool and use your own payout address as the worker username. Exact hosts and ports per coin are on the Connect page:

Code:

URL:  stratum+tcp://<host>:<port>        (or stratum+ssl:// for TLS)
User: your-own-wallet-address.workername
Pass: x

See https://mkpool.com for the current endpoints for each coin and difficulty tier.
