SOLO WOLF MINERS

Solo mining is like buying a single lottery ticket — the odds of finding a block on your own are astronomically low. When you join a pack, every wolves hashrate combines into one collective force pointed at the same target.

Think of it this way: if 10 wolves each produce 500 GH/s, the pack hunts at 5 TH/s together. That's 10× the chance of finding a block compared to mining alone. The block reward (~3.125 BTC, currently worth ~$300,000+) is then split equally among the pack.

It's a meaty reward — more than enough to go around. After a small 1% platform fee, an Alpha Pack wolf takes home ~9.9% of each block found. You trade a tiny chance at a full block for a much bigger chance at a meaningful share. Strength in numbers.

You need a Bitcoin wallet address (starts with bc1, 1, or 3) to sign in and receive your share of any verified block reward. If you don't have one yet:

• Hardware wallet (recommended): Ledger, Trezor, or ColdCard — your keys, your coins. Most secure option.
• Software wallet: Electrum (desktop), BlueWallet (mobile), or Sparrow Wallet — free and open-source.

Once you have a wallet, copy your receive address and paste it into the Connect Wallet button on this site. That public wallet acts as your login and payout address. No browser extensions, no MetaMask, no seed phrases shared with us.

Use this onboarding process to register, build your pack, and begin hunting:

1. Sign in with your wallet — click "Connect Wallet" and enter the public Bitcoin address that should identify you and receive any verified reward share.
2. Join or create a pack — browse existing packs or use your wallet's one lifetime pack creation allowance. Choose Alpha (10), Strike (100), or Scout (1,000).
3. Recruit your pack — use Find Pack Members from My Packs to share a ready-written invitation and pack link on social media, mining groups, forums, or directly with miners you trust.
4. Copy your pool details — once you're in a pack, your pack details show the pool address (for example, wolfpackminers.com) and port in separate boxes.
5. Set the miner username / worker address — use the Wolfpackminers cold wallet as the miner username so the block reward points to the site cold wallet: bc1qj6tlwj0mr22384jhfam2dc06hfedtvm6j60knq.
6. Add your payout wallet as the worker identity — include the same wallet you used to sign in after the cold wallet, for example bc1qj6tlwj0mr22384jhfam2dc06hfedtvm6j60knq.your_wallet. Password is x.
7. Start mining — your hashrate will appear on the dashboard within minutes. You're now hunting with the pack.

Status meanings: Online means the wallet is registered as a pack member. Hunting means the miner is reporting positive measured hashrate and has submitted a recent accepted share. Resting, Inactive, and Abandoned follow the activity timeline explained below.

Works with any SHA-256 miner: BitAxe, Antminer, Whatsminer, or any ASIC/FPGA that supports stratum protocol.

Open My Packs, select your pack tab, and use the Find Pack Members social-media link. It creates a ready-written invitation with a direct link to your pack that you can share on any social platform. You can also find miners through the Wolfpackminers Discord and X @WPMAlphaWolf.

Share the pack name, founder name, available slots, and the kind of mining hardware you want to hunt alongside. Never ask anyone for private keys, seed phrases, or wallet access.

When a pack finds a block, the block reward is directed to the Wolfpackminers cold wallet. The block and submitted work are then verified before any payout is prepared. The system preserves the pack-membership and miner-status snapshot from the exact time the block was found.

• Bitcoin Core confirms the block, reward amount, and coinbase payment destination.
• Accepted work and pack membership are checked against the immutable snapshot recorded when the block was found.
• Only miners that satisfied the published active-contribution requirements at that moment are included.
• A 1% platform fee is deducted to cover infrastructure, development, and Bitcoin node costs.
• The remaining 99% is divided equally among the exact number of verified, payout-eligible pack members.
• After verification is complete, payments are distributed manually from the cold wallet to each eligible member's registered Bitcoin address. Your connected wallet is your login and payout address.

Example using a BTC price of $100,000: An Alpha Pack with 10 verified, payout-eligible wolves finds a 3.125 BTC block worth $312,500. The 1% platform fee is 0.03125 BTC, leaving 3.09375 BTC ($309,375). Split equally among 10 eligible wolves, each receives 0.309375 BTC, worth $30,937.50 at that example price. Network transaction fees may affect the final amount received.

Small mining units such as ESP32 miners are great for learning and experimenting, and Solo Wolf Miners accepts every size of wolf. However, a low-powered device can show that it is hashing locally while remaining Resting on the website because it has not submitted an accepted pool share for an extended period. Share difficulty and the device's limited hashrate determine how often accepted work reaches the pool.

A Bitaxe Gamma is the realistic entry-level recommendation for miners who want to contribute accepted shares more consistently. It is still possible for a much smaller device to find a Bitcoin block, but low-powered hardware has practical limitations: it completes less work, submits qualifying shares less often, and may spend longer in Resting status.

Payout eligibility requires active contribution at the moment a block is found. Pack membership or a local "hashing" display alone is not enough. For fairness, a wolf must be connected, reporting positive measured hashrate, and have a recent accepted share in the payout window. Resting, Inactive, and Abandoned members are not included in that block's immutable payout snapshot.

The system tracks miner status as follows:

• ● Online — registered and connected to the pack.
• ● Hunting — actively contributing recent accepted work and eligible for rewards.
• ● Resting — no accepted share for 30 minutes. Not currently payout-eligible.
• ● Inactive (24h+) — not contributing. Not eligible for rewards.
• ● Abandoned (72h+) — auto-removed from pack. Slot opens for another wolf.

Keep the miner connected and verify accepted shares on the pool dashboard. The hunt rewards contribution, not registration alone.

No — hunting begins as soon as the pack has members contributing hashrate. You don't need to wait for every slot to fill.

The pack size (10, 100, or 1,000) is a maximum limit, not a minimum requirement. A pack of 3 wolves can start hunting immediately. If they find a block, the reward splits among those 3 active wolves — which actually means a bigger share per wolf than a full pack.

As more wolves join, your individual share per block gets smaller, but the pack's overall odds of finding blocks increase significantly. The pack size cap keeps the odds fixed and the rewards meaningful — it's a deliberate design choice, not a limitation.

Bottom line: Join → Point your miner → Start hunting. No waiting around.

Different pack sizes suit different miner classes. Match your miner's power to the pack: Some Examples

⚡️ High‑hashrate miners (3+ TH/s each)
Alpha Pack (10 slots) — ideal for machines with a bit more power, Avalon 3 (≈ 6 TH/s), or clusters of BitAxe's. A group of 10 higher powered machines can easily send the aggregated hash rate soaring. Each wolf claims a substantial share when a block is found.

We actively encourage users to network, and any size miner is welcome in any pack. The pack choice is a recommendation for matching hashrate and reward expectations, not a barrier to joining the hunt.

⛏️ Mid‑tier miners (1‑3 TH/s each)
Strike Pack (100 slots) — perfect for BitAxe Gamma or higher (≈ 1.2‑1.3 TH/s). A hundred wolves each contributing ~1.3 TH/s adds up to ~130 TH/s total pack power — while keeping individual payouts meaningful.

Small miners (under 1 TH/s each) — Scout Packs recommended
This pack size is where a large group of lower powered machines can join up and become a formidable force. It is also a great opportunity for higher powered rigs to work together and be even more powerful. Scout miners start at share difficulty 1, the lowest supported setting. The pool may automatically raise difficulty for faster hardware. Share difficulty changes how often work is recorded; it does not change a miner's chance of finding a Bitcoin block.

Scout payout eligibility: Being connected is not enough. At the moment a block is found, a miner must be connected, reporting positive measured hashrate, and have an accepted share within the previous 30 minutes. A device that has not produced a difficulty-1 share during that window is excluded from the immutable payout snapshot. This prevents inactive or non-contributing devices from receiving an equal share of a pack reward.

Rule of thumb: Strength comes from numbers, but rewards stay fair because the pack size caps the dilution. We actively encourage pack leaders to co ordinate hash rates.

Yes. One registered wallet can connect up to 16 mining devices while remaining one wolf and occupying only one pack slot. The devices' accepted shares and measured hashrate are combined under that wallet. Adding devices increases the wolf's contribution, but it does not increase the pack member count or create extra payout shares.

For example, one pack member may already run two Bitaxe Gamma 601 miners and later add a NerdQaxe+. This is no problem. Enter the same pack pool address, assigned port, site cold-wallet mining username, your registered payout wallet as the worker identity, and password x in every device dashboard.

Use the same worker identity on each device. The gateway combines the accepted shares and measured hashrate under the same registered payout wallet:

• bc1qj6tlwj0mr22384jhfam2dc06hfedtvm6j60knq.your_wallet

The cold wallet before the first full stop directs any block reward to the site cold wallet. The registered payout wallet after it identifies the wolf, so every device using that same pair counts as the same pack member. The 16-connection safety limit applies to devices sharing one public network address; if several wallets use the same internet connection, they share that network limit.

There is a flat 1% platform fee on every block reward found. That's it. No hidden charges, no subscription, no joining fee, no withdrawal fee.

• Block reward: 3.125 BTC
• Platform fee (1%): 0.03125 BTC
• Distributed to pack: 3.09375 BTC (99%)

The 1% fee covers server infrastructure, Bitcoin full node operation, development, and maintenance. It is recorded in the verified payout calculation for each found block. You only pay when the pack actually finds a block. If you're not finding blocks, you pay nothing.

Compare that to traditional mining pools that charge 1–3% plus skim through opaque reward calculations. Here, the fee is visible on-chain and the math is simple.

You should be able to verify the records that matter. The service is designed to provide clear mining, eligibility, and payout information:

• Verifiable transactions: When payouts are completed, the outgoing transactions can be checked on the Bitcoin blockchain.
• Real-time dashboard: See your hashrate, shares, miner status, and pack activity live. No black box.
• Documented custody process: Miners point to the Wolfpackminers cold wallet for the block reward destination. After the immutable eligibility record is reviewed, payments are distributed manually to eligible members' registered wallet addresses and completed transactions can be verified on-chain.
• Transparent 1% fee: The fee is recorded in the verified payout calculation for each found block, with no hidden founder tax or reward skimming.
• Open activity tracking: Every share submitted, every miner's status, every block found — it's all visible on the dashboard. Nothing hidden.
• Fair reward rules: Equal split among active members. No hidden fees, no skimming, no founder tax. What the pack earns, the pack keeps.
• Your keys, your coins: We only store your public wallet address for login, identity, and payout records. We never ask for private keys, seed phrases, or wallet access. If someone does, it's a scam — not us.

Built by solo miners, for solo miners. We're wolves too.

The system handles it automatically:

• 30 minutes without an accepted share: Status changes to Resting. The miner may still be connected, but it is not currently contributing qualifying work.
• 24 hours without miner activity: Status changes to Inactive. You remain a pack member but must reconnect or sign in to reactivate.
• 72 hours without miner activity: Status changes to Abandoned and you are automatically removed from the pack, opening the slot for a new wolf.

Signing in with your wallet restores Resting or Inactive membership to Online. An accepted share restores active contribution status. Once a membership reaches Abandoned and is removed, you must join again if a slot is available. When a founder requests to leave, a randomly selected remaining member receives a seven-day founder offer. The founder stays in the pack until that member accepts; a declined offer is rerouted when another eligible member is available, and the founder may cancel while it is pending. If a founder becomes Abandoned, ownership transfers automatically so the pack cannot become ownerless. An empty pack is removed; packs with financial history are archived for audit instead.

Each wallet can belong to one pack and can create one pack at a time. If a no-history pack is deleted, its creator's allowance is released. A creation allowance remains occupied while that pack still exists, including after ownership transfers.

Simple: equal split among all active members at the moment the block is found.

If the pack isn't full (e.g. 4 wolves in an Alpha Pack), each active wolf gets a larger share: ~24.75% each instead of 9.9% (after the 1% platform fee). The fewer the wolves, the bigger the slice — but the lower the pack hashrate and odds of finding a block.

All reward figures shown are after the 1% platform fee.

We take security seriously:

• We only store your public wallet address — the same address anyone can look up on a block explorer. No private keys, no seed phrases, ever.
• Authentication is wallet-address based. No password, private key, or seed phrase is requested.
• All connections use encryption (TLS/SSL).
• The mining pool runs on our own dedicated Bitcoin full node — no third-party pool dependencies.

If anyone ever asks for your private key or seed phrase claiming to be from Solo Wolf Miners — that's a scam. Report it immediately.

Not exactly. If you're not in the game, you have zero chance.

The people who say "solo mining is pointless" are almost right… if you're doing it alone. With a pack, the aggregated hash rate significantly increases your probability.

That's why we built Solo Wolf Miners. You either want to be in or you don't. There's no middle ground. Having a pack to hunt the hashes tilts the odds more in your favour than going alone — because alone, you're just waiting for a miracle. With a pack, you're creating the odds.

Think about it: 1,000 wolves each contributing 1 TH/s = 1 PH/s collective power. That's not pointless — that's a hunting pack that can actually find blocks and earn real rewards.

So yeah, solo mining alone is extreme odds to say the least. Most of us dont have the money to buy a data centre to mine BTC — this is the best we can do and still have the chance of a meaningful reward. But solo miners together? That's a force. Join the pack or sit on the sidelines. Your choice.
