Visit the official Binance Pool website and register for a Binance Pool account to create a mining account. You may also create multiple sub-mining accounts to suit your needs. For more details, please refer to What Is Binance Mining Account and How to Create It?.
2. Mining configuration setup
2.1 Configure Stratum URL
  • Pool 1: stratum+tcp://bch.poolbinance.com:8888
  • Pool 2: stratum+tcp://bch.poolbinance.com:3333
  • Pool 3: stratum+tcp://bch.poolbinance.com:1800

Create a worker name ("MiningAccount.Worker") and set up a password. Worker names can be numbers or numbers and letters. For example, if your mining account name is MiningBCH, your worker name could be "MiningBCH.001". Password is optional.
2.3 Mining configuration
Take Antminer as an example. Log in to your Antminer and click [Miner Configuration]. Enter your details and click [Save & Apply] to finish the setup. To ensure stable mining, we recommend setting multiple ports. When one port fails to connect, the miner will automatically switch to the next and continue mining.
3. Check hashrates
After your miner is up and running, you can view the performance statistics in approximately 10 minutes. Go to [Workers] to view the active hashrate.
4. Check earnings
The settlement cycle calculates from 00:00 of the previous day to 00:00 of the current day (UTC). The mining pool payment occurs between 02:00 to 10:00 (UTC) every day.
After the settlement is completed, your mining income will be credited to your Funding Wallet. You can check the daily income records from the [Earnings], or [Wallet] - [Funding Wallet].

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why do I need to set up multiple ports?
We recommend setting up multiple ports to ensure a stable and sustainable mining process. Should one of them become inactive, the miner will automatically switch to the next to continue mining.
2. My miner is already running, but the mining pool is showing “inactive miner”.
The miner status will become active after it keeps running for approximately 10 - 20 minutes. If you see an “inactive” status, please check the miner’s settings. If the issue persists, please contact Binance Support.
