Can you build a BSV pool that is solo, private, or public?

Yes. The pool type affects authentication, abuse controls, and how you present payouts and stats. We’ll recommend a launch approach based on whether you’re mining alone, with a group, or operating a public pool.

Can I run BTC and BSV pools side-by-side on the same server?

Often, yes—especially for pilots. For production or public pools, we usually separate responsibilities so one coin’s node or payout issues don’t take down the entire operation. You’ll also want separate endpoints and clear documentation per coin.

Will it work with NiceHash hashpower?

In many cases, yes. Compatibility depends on how miners connect and how your pool handles difficulty updates and session behavior. We can tune vardiff and onboarding docs for external hashpower marketplaces where appropriate.

Do you provide the pool website, dashboard, and charts?

Yes. We can deliver a full branded pool website with a miner dashboard (workers, hashrate, payments), plus status pages. If you prefer an API-first deployment, we can also integrate stats into your own UI.

What do you need from me to start a BSV pool setup?

Your pool type (solo/private/public), expected hashrate, preferred payout model, target hosting (VPS/dedicated/cloud), and whether you want a full website UI or a minimal operational deployment. From there we propose the cleanest rollout.

Bitcoin SV (BSV) Mining Pool Setup — Engineer‑Focused Guide

BSV pool operations tend to be gated by node policy and transaction handling rather than basic Stratum wiring. This page outlines the operator checks that make BSV behavior observable and payouts safe.

BSV pool fundamentals: policy, templates, and payout safety

A BSV pool is only as stable as its node policy and monitoring. Your daemon provides templates and enforces transaction rules; Stratum hands out jobs and records shares; payouts move funds under strict controls. Build visibility first, then scale miners.

Template visibility: Log template errors and version changes after updates.
Policy awareness: Record node policy settings that influence acceptance.
Wallet control: Design payouts with pause, retry, and operator approval.
Latency control: Track stale shares by endpoint to catch path issues.

BSV stack choice: operate what you can observe

For BSV, you want a stack that makes policy and failures obvious. Whether you pick Yiimp or Miningcore, the key is strong logs, metrics, and a safe payout pipeline.

Yiimp for BSV: Fast UI and common pool tooling. See the Yiimp setup guide.
Miningcore for BSV: Good APIs and service separation. See the Miningcore setup guide.
Custom policy hooks: Useful when you need more control over template/policy behavior.

Policy changes are outages

Treat policy tweaks like code changes. When node settings affect which transactions can enter a template, miners will see rejects if you change them silently. Stage changes and watch submit error rates.

What we configure for BSV pool operations

BSV node and RPC: Install, secure RPC, and monitor sync and peer health.
Template + submit observability: Metrics for template latency, submit errors, and orphan events.
Stratum protections: Connection limits, bans, and VarDiff targets for server health.
Payout workflow: Choose scheme and test it (see payout schemes).payout model guide.)
Operator UX: Status surfaces for height, rejects, payout backlog, and wallet balance.
Hardening + upkeep: Security and maintenance routines (see ).

We also set up alert thresholds that map to real operator actions: pause payouts, restart a stuck service, or quarantine a node. That keeps BSV incidents bounded.

BSV miner connection strings and usage notes

Keep the BSV miner docs short: primary endpoint, fallback, and worker format. Provide a single “known good” example for common ASIC firmware.

stratum+tcp://POOL-DOMAIN:3333
stratum+ssl://POOL-DOMAIN:3443

If you operate multiple endpoints, publish which one is intended for farms versus rentals, and what behavior miners should expect.

BSV operator notes: policy and performance considerations

Node policy inventory: Record the BSV policy settings you rely on, and keep them under change control.
High‑volume traffic: Monitor DB write path and network latency; bursts can show up as stale shares first.
Wallet batch sizing: Test large payout batches and observe wallet performance before automating.
Audit trail: Keep logs tying rounds and payout batches to txids for dispute resolution.

BSV go‑live checklist

BSV daemon synced; policy settings documented; peers monitored.
RPC locked to private network; credentials rotated and audited.
Wallet sends tested; pause/rollback procedures documented.
Stratum reject logging enabled; VarDiff and bans tuned safely.
Database tuned; pruning and backup verified with realistic load.
Accounting and payout reports verified; audit trail preserved.
Miner help page published; endpoint purpose and support path clear.

BSV pool FAQ for technical teams

How do you handle BSV policy differences across node versions?

We pin node versions, track policy settings in configuration management, and stage upgrades with template and submit tests. That prevents surprise reject waves.

Can you build BSV payout controls with manual approval gates?

Yes. Many operators prefer automation that can be paused or requires approval for large batches. We can design that into the payout workflow.

How do you diagnose rising rejects on a BSV pool?

We split rejects by cause: authorization, stale shares, difficulty mismatch, and submit/template errors. That quickly narrows the layer that changed.

Do you recommend gateways for BSV miners in multiple regions?

Gateways can reduce latency and contain noisy clients. We add them when stale rates show a network path problem rather than a node or Stratum issue.

What do you need to scope a BSV pool build?

Provide your target region, expected miner mix (farms vs rentals), and whether you prefer Yiimp or Miningcore. Also note any constraints around custody and payout approval.
