Ports

  • Pool (PPLNS): stratum+tcp://veinpool.fr:3170 · TLS: stratum+ssl://veinpool.fr:13170
  • SOLO: stratum+tcp://veinpool.fr:3172 · TLS: stratum+ssl://veinpool.fr:13172

1. Get a ZANO address

You need a ZANO receiving address whose keys you control: the official Zano wallet is the safest choice. Avoid exchange deposit addresses for solo mining: some exchanges do not accept block rewards (coinbase).

2. Download a mining software

Miners that work with Zano on VeinPool. Only download them from their official page (links below); the fees shown are the software's own dev fee, separate from the pool fee:

3. Start mining

Replace YOUR_ADDRESS with your ZANO address and rig1 with your machine's name. Command for each miner (port 3170):

SRBMiner-MULTI

SRBMiner-MULTI.exe --algorithm progpow_zano --disable-cpu --pool veinpool.fr:3170 --wallet YOUR_ADDRESS.rig1

Rigel

rigel.exe -a progpowz -o stratum+tcp://veinpool.fr:3170 -u YOUR_ADDRESS -w rig1

WildRig Multi

wildrig.exe --algo progpowz --url stratum+tcp://veinpool.fr:3170 --user YOUR_ADDRESS --worker rig1 --pass x

On Windows, paste the line into a .bat file inside the miner's folder; on Linux, start the program with ./ followed by its name. On the Zano page above, the generator writes the full command (PowerShell, .bat, Linux, HiveOS, MMPOS) with your address and a Copy button.

Pool (PPLNS) or SOLO?

PPLNS pool: everyone's hashrate is combined and each block is split according to the work each miner really did. Steady income, recommended for most rigs.

SOLO: your rig mines alone; when it finds a block it receives the reward (1 ZANO) minus the 1% pool fee. On a small network like Zano, a single machine can find blocks regularly; the calculator shows your exact odds.

How much can you earn mining Zano?

Earnings depend on your hashrate, the network difficulty and the ZANO price. The Zano calculator estimates them live (pool and solo); electricity cost is optional. The hardware ranking compares GPUs and CPUs.

Common problems

  • Antivirus deletes the miner: most antivirus software flags mining tools. Only download them from their official page (links above), then add an exclusion for their folder.
  • No stats on VeinPool: check the address, port and hostname; stats appear after the first shares (1 to 2 minutes).
  • Hashrate lower than expected (GPU): update your graphics driver and close apps that use the GPU (games, browsers playing video).
