2Miners Mining Pool Mobile App: Looking for Beta Testers
March 3, 2026
The 2Miners team is developing an app for all mining pool users. This new tool allows you to monitor your workers and get real-time updates on their status. While the app is not yet available to the general public, you can try it out now through our beta testing program.
2Miners App Features and Capabilities
The 2Miners mobile app will be available for both iOS and Android smartphones. Its key feature is support for real-time push notifications regarding worker performance.
In practice, this means you will receive a notification if a worker goes offline, allowing you to react quickly and minimize downtime. You will also be notified when a miner comes back online.
The 2Miners app also includes several additional features:
Real-time hashrate statistics;
Share monitoring (valid, invalid, and stale);
Worker activity tracking;
Multi-wallet support;
Overview of payment and payout settings.
How to Join the 2Miners App Beta Test
2Miners mining pool users with Android devices can join the public beta test. Your feedback and ideas will help shape the future of a product used by tens of thousands of miners worldwide.
Beta testing provides early access to all features. Additionally, developers will review bug reports and consider suggestions for new functionality.
To join the 2Miners mobile app beta test, follow these steps:
Use the program and share your feedback in the Telegram chat.
2Miners App Testing for iOS Devices
Public beta testing for iOS devices is unavailable due to platform-specific restrictions. However, the 2Miners iOS app already exists and is currently in use.
Therefore, iPhone users can also look forward to the upcoming release, which will simplify mining on the 2Miners pool.
February 2026 Work Progress: iOS and Android App Development
March 2, 2026
February 2026 was a major milestone month for 2Miners. We began beta testing our brand new mobile application for Android and iOS, introducing real-time worker push notifications. In addition, Kaspa underwent another scheduled block reward reduction. Here are the details.
2Miners Mobile App: iOS & Android Development
We are developing a brand new 2Miners mobile application for iOS and Android.
The key feature — and the main reason many miners have been waiting for this — is real-time push notifications about worker activity.
You will now be able to receive instant alerts when:
Your worker goes offline
Your worker comes back online
No more refreshing the website. No more discovering hours later that your rig stopped mining. The app sends immediate notifications directly to your phone.
In addition to push alerts, the app includes:
Real-time hashrate statistics
Shares monitoring (valid / stale / invalid)
Worker activity tracking
Multi-wallet support
Payments and payout settings overview
Android Beta Testing — We Need Your Help

Kaspa (KAS) Block Reward Reduction
In accordance with the Kaspa Tokenomics, the Crescendo Hard Fork, and the official emission schedule, Kaspa underwent another scheduled block reward reduction in February.
Previous Reward: 3.46 KAS
New Reward: 3.27 KAS
Please pay attention! Kaspa mining profitability has changed again. We have already updated 2CryptoCalc to reflect the new reward value so you can accurately calculate your expected returns.
What’s Next
February was focused on building tools to make mining management easier and more responsive. The mobile app is a big step toward improving real-time monitoring and control for miners worldwide.
We look forward to your feedback and will continue refining the app before the full public release.

January 2026 Work Progress: Multiple Halvings, Node Updates, and Quai Preparations
February 2, 2026
January marked a steady but important start to the new year for miners on the 2Miners pool. The month brought several regular node updates, continued work on expanding our pool offerings, and multiple scheduled reward reductions across major mineable coins. Here is a full summary of what happened.
Node Updates
Ergo (ERG) Node Update 6.0.2
In January, the Ergo network released version 6.0.2 of its node software. This was a regular maintenance update focused primarily on stability, indexing reliability, and wallet behavior.
The most important fix addressed an issue with a non-versioned tree.template in IndexedContractTemplate, which could previously cause indexers to become stuck. Alongside this fix, several internal improvements and tests were included to improve overall node reliability.
Key changes in this release included:
Added tests for accepting solutions from previous candidates
Updated agent rules logic
Fixed duplicate address generation after wallet restoration
General cleanup and preparation for the 6.0.2 release
No action was required from miners beyond keeping their nodes and infrastructure up to date.
Zcash (ZEC) Node Update 6.11.0
Zcash released version 6.11.0 of zcashd in January. This was also a regular update and introduced no changes to consensus rules or mining behavior.
The sole purpose of this release was to set a new end-of-service halt height. From a miner’s perspective, nothing changed operationally.
It is worth noting that Zcash has remained one of the main drivers of crypto mining activity over the past months. Following the strong price surge at the end of 2025, interest in ZEC mining has stayed high, keeping both GPU and ASIC miners actively engaged on the network.
New Coin in Progress: Quai Network
We are actively working on adding support for a new coin — Quai Network (QUAI).
Quai is a next-generation blockchain designed for high throughput and scalability using a multi-chain architecture. It focuses on enabling fast, decentralized, and scalable global payments while maintaining strong security guarantees. The network is built around the Proof-of-Entropy-Minima (PoEM) consensus mechanism and supports merged mining across multiple chains.
Our SHA256 pool for Quai is already up and running internally, and only a few final tests remain. We plan to officially announce the pool launch in February.
More details and connection information will be shared once testing is complete.
Reward Reductions Across Multiple Coins
January also included several scheduled reward reductions in accordance with the emission policies of multiple networks. Please pay close attention, as these changes directly affect mining profitability.
Ravencoin (RVN) Halving
Following the official Ravencoin halving rules, the network underwent a block reward reduction in January.
Previous Reward: 2500 RVN
New Reward: 1250 RVN
This halving event permanently reduced Ravencoin mining rewards by 50%.
Kaspa (KAS) Reward Reduction
As defined by the Kaspa Tokenomics, the Crescendo Hard Fork, and the official emission schedule, Kaspa experienced another scheduled block reward reduction.
Previous Reward: 3.67 KAS
New Reward: 3.46 KAS
Kaspa continues its gradual reward decrease model, and miners should regularly recalculate expected profitability.
Ergo (ERG) Reward Reduction
In accordance with the Ergo Tokenomics and emission schedule, Ergo also underwent a significant block reward reduction.
Previous Reward: 9 ERG
New Reward: 6 ERG
This reduction represents a major step in Ergo’s long-term emission plan.
Please pay attention! We have already updated 2CryptoCalc to reflect all of the above reward changes so you can accurately assess mining profitability.
Looking Ahead
January set a solid foundation for the year ahead. While many updates were routine, the continued evolution of emission schedules and the upcoming addition of new coins like Quai show that crypto mining remains dynamic and competitive.

December 2025 Work Progress: The End of Clore, Year Results
December 31, 2025
December 2025 marked the end of the year with a mix of educational content, difficult news for some miners, scheduled protocol changes, and a broader look at the state of crypto mining as we head into 2026. Here is a full summary of what happened this month.
GRIN Wallet Guide: Helping Miners Get Started
In December, we published a detailed step-by-step guide explaining how to use the GRIN wallet correctly. GRIN remains one of the coins that can be very profitable to mine, but it also causes constant confusion among miners — especially those encountering it for the first time.
The main issue is that GRIN cannot be mined directly to an address generated on a cryptocurrency exchange. Instead, miners must use a local GRIN wallet and properly configure transaction methods such as HTTP or file-based transactions. This additional complexity often leads to setup errors, failed payouts, or miners abandoning GRIN altogether.
That is exactly why we created this guide — to walk miners through the entire process step by step and remove unnecessary friction:
If you are mining or planning to mine GRIN, we strongly recommend reading this article carefully.
Clore Mining Has Ended
We regret to share extremely unpleasant — and frankly unacceptable — news regarding Clore (Clore.ai).
The Clore team has unilaterally ended mining and migrated the project to an ERC token. Mining beyond block 1,584,180 is completely pointless — everything mined after that block belongs to a fork that is not supported by any exchange.
What makes this situation especially troubling is how it was handled. The Clore developers never contacted mining pools in any way. There were:
no advance warnings,
no technical notices,
no timelines or transition plans.
As a result, a huge number of miners and pools unknowingly continued mining a worthless fork. The only communication from the Clore team was an after-the-fact message on Twitter saying “thanks to the miners” — a platform that many miners do not even follow.
This approach is deeply disappointing. This is not how things are done, and it is not how you treat the pools and miners who secured and supported your network.
As a direct consequence:
all Clore pools were shut down immediately;
no further payouts are possible;
a significant amount was already paid out into a worthless, unsupported fork.
This situation came as a shock to us as well. While we sincerely apologize to all affected miners, the responsibility for what happened lies entirely with the Clore.ai management and development team.
Please switch to mining other coins as soon as possible. Use 2CryptoCalc to find suitable alternatives based on your hardware.
Kaspa (KAS) Block Reward Reduction
In accordance with the Kaspa Tokenomics, the Crescendo Hard Fork, and the official emission schedule, Kaspa underwent another scheduled block reward reduction in December.
Previous Reward: 3.89 KAS
New Reward: 3.67 KAS
Please pay attention! Kaspa mining profitability has changed accordingly. We have already updated 2CryptoCalc so you can accurately recalculate your expected доходность.
Year-End Recap: Crypto Mining in 2025
As 2025 comes to an end, it is clear that crypto mining continues to evolve — not always in easy or predictable ways.
Unfortunately, many small and poorly managed cryptocurrencies did not survive this year. Lack of communication, weak development, and unprofessional handling of major changes led to the shutdown of multiple mining projects.
At the same time, new projects continue to emerge, and some established coins saw renewed interest. One of the most notable examples is Zcash. In 2025, ZEC attracted miners again as its price surged by nearly ten times compared to previous lows. This price growth made even older ASIC hardware profitable once more.
Remarkably, machines like the Antminer Z11 — originally released back in 2019 — returned to profitability thanks to improved market conditions. We will include a price and profitability chart here to illustrate this shift.
Despite all challenges, mining remains very much alive. It continues to reward those who stay informed, react quickly, and choose projects carefully.
Thank you for being with 2Miners throughout 2025. We wish you a Happy New Year, stable networks, strong uptime, and successful mining in 2026!

How to Use the Grin Wallet: A Step-by-Step Guide for Cryptocurrency Miners
December 8, 2025
GRIN is the seventh most popular cryptocurrency on 2Miners. It was added to the mining pool in the spring of 2019, and is currently being mined by over 340 people. Given the nature of transactions on the network, difficulties may arise when interacting with the crypto asset. Here is how to avoid them and easily receive payouts for your work on the pool.
Setting up the GRIM wallet for Grin cryptocurrency
Transactions on the GRIN blockchain are of the P2P or peer-to-peer type; you can read more about this in this article on the GRIN wiki. Therefore, if your wallet is unavailable, the pool cannot send the payout.
Wallet availability can be checked using this tool. If your wallet is currently unavailable, the following message will appear:
The window of a normally functioning Grin++ wallet, ready to accept an incoming transaction, looks as follows:
in the bottom left corner of the wallet window, the internal node status must be “Running”;
the wallet must have incoming peers (indicated in the bottom right corner of the wallet window).
Also, the tor.exe process must have incoming and outgoing traffic.
If you are unable to configure the Grin++ wallet to receive payouts from the pool, we recommend using the GRIM wallet. To download the wallet, go to the “Downloads” section and select the version for your operating system:
Next, run the downloaded file and follow the installer’s instructions.
Launch the GRIM wallet. To create a new wallet or restore an existing one from a saved seed phrase, click the “Add Wallet” button.
In the mobile version, it looks like this.
Next, enter a name for the wallet, create a password, and click “Continue”.
In the mobile version:
To create a new wallet, select the “Create” option, write down your seed phrase, and click “Continue”:
In the mobile version:
To restore an existing wallet from a saved seed phrase, select the “Restore” option, enter the seed phrase, and click “Continue”.
In the mobile version, the process is as follows:
If you used a seed phrase from the Grin++ wallet, your address in the GRIM wallet will match the address in the Grin++ wallet.
Next, you need to choose how to connect your wallet to the network. We recommend choosing the external connection grincoin.org:
In the mobile version:
Wait for the wallet to load and go to the “Transport” tab:
In the mobile version:
In the “Transport” tab, you must enable Tor and wait for the connection:
In the mobile version:
After Tor connects, its status will change to “Connected”, and your address will be highlighted in green:
In the mobile version:
This completes the setup of the GRIM wallet for receiving GRIN payouts from the pool. Your address is now available to receive payouts. We check the availability of your wallet using this tool and see the following message:
Do not close or change your wallet settings until the payout has been received. Typically, a new payout round for the GRIN pool begins every 6 hours.
November 2025 brought several important updates for miners on the 2Miners pool. From a major Zcash network upgrade to new CKB client improvements and a scheduled Kaspa reward reduction — here is everything that happened this month.
Zcash Network Upgrade NU6.1 Activated
The Zcash network successfully activated NU6.1 in November 2025, following the release of zcashd v6.10.0. This upgrade was endorsed by both the Electric Coin Company and the Zcash Foundation and introduced a new long-term funding model that separates the roles of the Community and ZEC coinholders.
The new funding structure allocates:
8% of all block rewards to Zcash Community Grants (ZCG), supporting community-driven initiatives.
12% of block rewards to a new Coinholder-Controlled Fund. This fund is governed directly by ZEC coinholders and may be used to distribute grants to ecosystem contributors or remain untouched for future decisions.
This model will remain active until the 3rd Zcash halving, allowing the community to evaluate whether it should be extended or revised.
NU6.1 also included several protocol updates and ZIP changes:
New ZIPs
ZIP 255: Deployment of the NU6.1 Network Upgrade
ZIP 271: Dev Fund Extension and One-Time Disbursement
ZIP 1016: Community and Coinholder Funding Model
Updated ZIPs
ZIP 214: Consensus rules for a Zcash Development Fund
Alongside funding changes, NU6.1 also improved RPC balance reporting for shielded transactions and introduced transaction version v5 as the new default format.
CKB Client Update: Version 0.203.0 Released
The Nervos CKB team released CKB 0.203.0 (commit 88d1126, dated 2025-10-22), bringing a series of new features, bug fixes, and performance improvements. This update enhanced network stability and optimized several internal components used by full nodes and light clients.
Key Features
#4891: Added hole punching protocol metrics
#4888: Introduced two outbound block-relay-only connections for improved network propagation
#4910: Implemented from/into conversions for gen-type
#4895: Corrected error handling in add_node and remove_node calls within NetRpcImpl
Improvements
#4970: Disabled default features for strum dependency
#4946: Improved rich-indexer stability by ensuring RocksDB SecondaryDB stays synchronized before read operations
#4972: Limited the size of the filters field in BlockFilters messages to 1.8 MB to prevent node disconnects caused by oversized frames
These changes improve overall network reliability and reduce the likelihood of full nodes disconnecting light clients due to oversized filter messages.
Please pay attention! Mining profitability for Kaspa has changed. We have already updated 2CryptoCalc to reflect the new reward values.

October 2025 Work Progress: The End of Flux Mining
November 3, 2025
October 2025 brought a mix of endings and new opportunities in the mining space. While we said goodbye to Flux mining, Zcash received a major upgrade, and several coins underwent scheduled reward reductions. Read on for all the updates from the 2Miners team this month.
Flux (ZelCash) Mining Ends – Pool Shutdown Completed
On October 20, 2025, mining for Flux (formerly ZelCash) officially ended on 2Miners. This was due to Flux migrating away from traditional Proof-of-Work (PoW) mining to the new Proof-of-Useful-Work v2 (PoUW v2) model via Proof of Nodes (PON).
Our Flux mining pools were shut down at 19:00 UTC on October 20 to ensure that all final payouts could be processed before block 2,020,000, at which point the chain hard-forked and traditional mining stopped entirely.
All balances above the minimum threshold of 10 FLUX were successfully paid out.
We’re sad to see Flux go, but if you’re looking for a new coin to mine, use 2CryptoCalc to find the most profitable options for your hardware.
Zcash (ZEC) Node Update – v6.10.0
The Zcash 6.10.0 release brings support for the upcoming NU6.1 network upgrade, which is scheduled to activate at block height 3,146,400 — expected around November 23, 2025.
All node operators must upgrade to v6.10.0 or later to remain compatible with the mainnet after the activation of NU6.1.
Included ZIPs (Zcash Improvement Proposals):
ZIP 271 – Deferred Dev Fund Lockbox Disbursement:
This proposal creates a new Zcash Development Fund, managed through a lockbox system. The lockbox contains funds reserved for future network development, ensuring a consistent, transparent, and long-term funding mechanism for Zcash’s ongoing improvements. The fund includes all existing resources from the earlier Deferred Development Fund Lockbox (ZIP 1015) and future allocations that may accrue over time.
ZIP 1016 – Community and Coinholder Funding Model (partial):
This proposal focuses on decentralizing decision-making and strengthening the governance model around Zcash funding. It aims to increase transparency and give coinholders a more direct voice in how development funds are used. Without this update, block subsidies for the Zcash Community Grants and the Deferred Development Fund Lockbox (ZIP 2001) would have expired in November 2025, risking a funding gap for Zcash development organizations.
The changes introduced ensure funding continuity, clarify governance structures, and make the process more dynamic and accountable to the Zcash community.
These updates are critical for maintaining long-term project sustainability and restoring investor confidence. As a result of the NU6.1 upgrade announcement, ZEC saw a significant price increase — rising from roughly $130 to $443 within one month — making Zcash mining more profitable than it has been in years.
Reward Reductions Across Coins
Heads up! Several coins experienced scheduled block reward reductions in October. We’ve updated 2CryptoCalc to reflect the new values so you can calculate your mining returns accurately.
KASPA (KAS) Block Reward Reduction
As part of the Kaspa Crescendo Hard Fork and emission schedule, the KAS block reward has been reduced:
Previous reward: 4.37 KAS
New reward: 4.12 KAS
ERGO (ERG) Block Reward Reduction
Following the Ergo Tokenomics and Emission Schedule, ERG mining rewards have decreased:
Previous reward: 12 ERG
New reward: 9 ERG
As always, check 2CryptoCalc to see the updated profitability for your mining rigs.
That wraps up October 2025. Stay connected with us via X (Twitter) and our Telegram miner community for all the latest news and support. Happy mining!

ETC Mining Stopped on Some iPollo ASICs – Firmware Released
Attention Ethereum Classic (ETC) ASIC miners!
Several iPollo devices — including iPollo V2 / V2x / V2h — stopped mining ETC after block #23,100,000 due to issues related to DAG Epoch 385.
We’ve seen this problem before — it’s related to the DAG file size growing beyond what some mining hardware can handle. This was extensively covered in our older Ethereum articles, such as:
Thankfully, iPollo has acknowledged the issue and released a firmware update to resolve it. If your device stopped mining ETC, please update the firmware immediately:

August 2025 kept the mining scene busy with important node releases and scheduled reward adjustments. Below is a concise roundup of what changed this month at 2Miners, so you can keep rigs and wallets configured correctly.
Node Updates
MimbleWimbleCoin (MWC) v5.3.10
Transaction fee limits: safeguards to prevent unexpectedly high fees.
New “offline” mode: run in a mode better suited for cold wallet setups (prepare and sign transactions without network access).
We recommend upgrading if you use cold storage or routinely craft transactions for offline signing.
Ergo (ERG) 6.0.1
Versioned block transaction serializer since 6.0: ensures the correct serializer version is used going forward.
Candidate regeneration fixes: stability improvements while preparing block candidates.
Indexed node API additions: endpoint to fetch blocks with full transactions.
UTXO queries refined: option to exclude mempool-spent outputs across all “unspent” endpoints.
Unconfirmed TX detail: endpoint now returns full inputs with proofs for pending transactions.
This maintenance release focuses on correctness, API completeness, and smoother block candidate handling.
Zcash (ZEC) v6.3.0
Network Upgrade 6.1 (NU6.1) preparations are included in this release.
ZIP 271: Deferred Dev Fund Lockbox Disbursement.
ZIP 1016 (partial): Community and Coinholder Funding Model.
Activation (testnet): NU6.1 activates at height 3,536,500.
Regtest control: can be activated at a specific height using -nuparams=4dec4df0:HEIGHT.
Testing note: during the test phase, consensus rules may change; if so, testnet will be rolled back in v6.10.0 and re-activated a second time (see ZIP 255 for deployment process).
Bug fix: corrected accounting for unshielding transactions spending Orchard notes in transparent balance-related RPCs (e.g., getbalance, gettransaction), aligning behavior with earlier fixes for Sprout/Sapling.
Default updated: -preferredtxversion now defaults to 5 (NU5 format). Use -preferredtxversion=4 to retain the previous behavior.
Block Reward Reductions
Karlsen (KLS)
Per the Karlsencoin tokenomics and emission schedule, the block reward decreased:
Previous: 29.71 KLS
New: 28.89 KLS
Please pay attention!2CryptoCalc has been updated accordingly.
Kaspa (KAS)
As part of the Kaspa emission schedule and Crescendo hard fork process, another planned reduction occurred:
Previous: 4.90 KAS
New: 4.62 KAS
Please pay attention!2CryptoCalc reflects the new reward.
