Hashrate is a rolling estimate; share bars count separate hours. Both come from verified work, so their trends correlate at fixed difficulty.

Two separate flows: mining traffic through Tor; eligible payouts to your Ark address. No wallet seed is shared with the pool.
YOUR MINER / READ ONLY
Follow your drips.
Your hashrate, verified shares, pending sats, and confirmed payouts. No account or wallet connection.
Open miner dashboard in Tor Browser ↗JUST YOUR ARK ADDRESS TOR ONLY
Open the link in Tor Browser and paste the Ark address your miner uses. See hourly graphs and payout history, with times in your local timezone.
This is public, read-only information: anyone who knows an address can look up its stats. There is no address directory and no payment controls.
Your address is hashed in your browser. Miner lookups go directly over Tor—not through this website or Cloudflare. Viewing stats does not enroll a miner or trigger a payout.
A SIMPLE IDEA
Hashpower in.
Ark sats out.
ArkPool buys verified Bitcoin hashpower under the terms that apply to each miner’s work. You don’t need to find a block yourself to earn a share-based reward.
- 01 / CONNECT
A private path in.
Your miner connects to a gateway on your home network. The gateway carries mining traffic over Tor.
- 02 / CONTRIBUTE
Work that counts.
Eligible shares are verified before they earn credit. A miner’s accepted counter alone is not proof of a reward.
- 03 / RECEIVE
Small, regular payouts.
Eligible whole-sat balances settle on UTC-hour boundaries. Fractions carry forward until at least one sat is payable.
BEFORE YOU CONNECT
Get a wallet.
Keep your keys.
You need your own compatible mainnet Ark receive address for mining payouts.
Bark is Second’s Ark wallet software. Use the official links to choose a setup that works for you.
Get an Ark wallet — built with Bark ↗
Explore Second’s official wallet directory, including mobile wallets.
YOUR WALLET / YOUR PAYOUTS BITCOIN MAINNET
- Create your wallet. Follow Second’s mainnet instructions, not its Signet testing guide. ArkPool uses Second’s mainnet Ark server.
- Back it up. Follow the wallet’s backup and refresh guidance. Bark recovery needs the recovery phrase and wallet database backups; never share either with us.
- Copy the Ark address. Use the full receive address beginning
ark1as your miner’s username, with passwordx. If the wallet shows a combined payment link or QR code, copy the Ark address itself—not the whole link.
FIND YOUR ARK ADDRESS HELPFUL HINTS
Using a wallet app? Open its Receive screen and look for the Ark receive address. Labels vary by app. If it only shows a combined payment link, find the Ark-specific address option or consult the wallet’s guide; do not paste the whole payment link.
Using Bark CLI? Once your mainnet wallet is set up, run this on the device or container that holds your wallet:
bark address
This generates and prints an Ark receive address. Copy the complete ark1 text. Use your existing wallet’s data directory if you configured a custom one. Do not create a second wallet just to obtain an address, and do not run this inside the keyless mining gateway.
Before saving miner settings: remove leading/trailing spaces and line breaks, compare the pasted address with your wallet, and use password x. The ark1 prefix alone is not a compatibility check.
Keep the same mining address. Reuse it when reconnecting. A different receive address creates a separate pool account; it does not move the old account’s pending balance.
Do not use a Lightning invoice, Lightning address, on-chain Bitcoin address, or wallet seed. Address compatibility is checked when connecting; not every Ark wallet or address format is supported.
ArkPool does not create or hold your wallet keys. Keep the gateway’s preconfigured Tor destination unchanged.

GATEWAY & DOCUMENTATION START HERE
Run the home-side gateway between your Bitaxe or SHA-256 miner and ArkPool’s Tor mining endpoint. Keep your wallet keys on your own device.
Open-source home gateway · MIT license · Alpha. Start with a Linux Docker host, its LAN address, and your own compatible mainnet Ark receive address. The pool’s Tor destination is prefilled.
Setup guide · Security boundaries · Agent-assisted setup
Check the current README before installing: the older alpha.1 bundle does not include the latest documented hardening. Gateway source is separate from the private pool backend.

1 / HOME GATEWAY TOR ALREADY CONFIGURED
Set LAN_IP in your gateway’s .env to that Docker host’s local address. Leave the prefilled POOL_ONION and POOL_PORT unchanged—there is no Tor destination to copy or enter.
The gateway handles Stratum V1 over Tor using its included destination settings. Follow the repository’s setup guide to start it, then use the local miner settings below.
The gateway must preserve your miner’s Ark username. Keep direct / clearnet fallback disabled.

PRIVACY, WITH CLEAR BOUNDARIES
Less to share.

No advertising trackers. No visitor-analytics scripts. Our website application does not set tracking cookies. Application request logging is disabled for this public site.
This is not a promise of zero records. Cloudflare delivers and protects this public HTTPS website and can process your IP address, request metadata, and security events; its protections may use cookies. Mining shares and payments are recorded for accounting.
Mining connects over Tor. Individual miner lookups stay on the separate Tor dashboard, not this website or Cloudflare. Public pool stats are aggregate only: no wallet seeds, wallet access, or public miner directory. Tor does not make the service trustless: the operator still verifies work and sends payouts.
Frontend code is being prepared for a separate open-source release. Backend code, infrastructure, and operational configuration remain private.
MINING POOL FAQ
Bitaxe mining.
Ark payouts.
Can I connect right now?
Yes. Use a Tor-capable home gateway and a compatible mainnet Ark address. Your pool account is created automatically when the miner connects successfully; no invitation or manual registration is needed. Only verified work earns credit.
Is ArkPool a Bitaxe Bitcoin mining pool?
ArkPool buys verified Bitcoin hashpower from Bitaxe and compatible SHA-256 ASIC home miners. Your miner connects through a home Stratum gateway over Tor. This is pooled hashpower, not solo mining or a guarantee of profit.
Do miners receive Ark or Lightning payouts?
Miners receive bitcoin sats over Ark, not Lightning. Ark and the Lightning Network are different bitcoin payment systems. ArkPool uses Bark from Second to send Ark payments. Enter a compatible mainnet Ark address as your miner username.
What is the minimum payout?
The minimum eligible payout is 1 satoshi (1 sat). Whole-sat balances are considered each hour, while fractions carry forward. The hourly schedule and low threshold do not guarantee a payment every hour.
Which Ark wallet can I use?
Use a mainnet Ark wallet that gives you a compatible ark1 receive address. ArkPool checks the address when your miner connects and refuses unsupported addresses instead of accepting uncredited work. Bark from Second powers the pool’s Ark payments. Never share your wallet seed, private key, or wallet database.
Will I get paid every hour?
Hourly is the settlement cadence, not a guarantee. You need at least one eligible whole sat. Fractions carry forward. Maintenance, compatibility checks, and safety limits can delay payment.
How are rewards calculated?
Verified work earns credit at the rate in effect when the work is submitted. Shares can represent different amounts of work, so there is no universal “one sat per share” rate. Alpha rates are not published on this site.
Is ArkPool still in alpha?
Yes. Eligible payouts start at 1 sat, with hourly payout windows. Fractions carry forward, and payment timing can vary.
Is this solo mining or a guaranteed return?
Neither. This is a hashpower purchasing service, not a promise of solo block rewards, profit, or fixed daily earnings. Mining has operating costs.
Do I need a Lightning address?
Miners receive Ark payouts to the compatible mainnet Ark address entered as their username. Do not enter a Lightning address or an on-chain Bitcoin address as your payout username.
Are public stats a proof of reserves?
No. These are operator-reported aggregate observations, including confirmed payout totals. They do not reveal treasury balances, independently prove solvency, or establish profitability.
