Stratums

Experience robust and resilient service with our Global Stratums at Luxor Mining Pool, providing you with uninterrupted, high-performance mining.

Our mining pool global endpoints automatically proxy your miner's TCP connection to the nearest available region, eliminating the need for regional settings or port numbers. In case of temporary downtimes in your region, our system seamlessly redirects your ASIC miner, or GPU miner, to the closest available region, preventing any loss in hashing.

Mining Pool Setup

To connect your ASIC miner to the Luxor Mining Pool, navigate to the mining pool settings page on your ASIC miner's interface. Fill in the fields as follows:

  • URL: stratum+tcp://btc.global.luxor.tech:700 (choose the correct one from the list above)
  • Worker: LuxorSubaccount.WorkerName (avoid using symbols or special characters as it may be invalid)
  • Password: 123 (avoid using symbols or special characters as it may be invalid)

After you are ready with the pool settings, press Save & Apply. This saves and applies the settings and also reboots the mining process.

Note: ensure you created the Subaccount you want to point your hashrate through the Luxor Mining Pool UI prior to configuring your ASICs.

What is FPPS (Full-Pay-Per-Share)?

In PPS the miner gets paid the expected value from the block reward. But block reward is only part of a miner revenue. The other part is transaction fees. FPPS is similar to PPS, but not only does it pay out for the expected block reward but also the transaction fees. FPPS calculates a standard transaction fee within a certain period of time and distributes it to miners. Luxor uses a rolling 144 block moving average to compute transaction fees.

Luxor is a purchaser of hashrate. FPPS pools purchase hashrate from miners at an agreed rate. In the case of Luxor, we purchase hashrate from you at a discount to spot FPPS (discount to spot is commonly known as pool fees).
