Verium Pool

Getting started

Connect a scrypt² CPU miner in minutes — no account required.

1. You need a Verium (VRM) address

Your wallet address is your only identity here — no sign-up, no email, no password. Get an address from the Verium desktop wallet or any VRM wallet. Addresses start with V. Rewards are paid to this address.

2. Point a scrypt² CPU miner at the pool

Verium is CPU-mined with the memory-hard scrypt² algorithm. Use a verified pool miner from the veriumMiner releases, or another Verium-capable cpuminer build with consensus stratum headers — there are a few to choose from; use whichever suits your needs best. Set the username to VRM_ADDRESS.workerName and any password.

cpuminer -a scrypt2 \
  -o stratum+tcp://mine.vericonomy.com:3333 \
  -u VRM_ADDRESS.workerName \
  -p x \
  -t <threads>

Examples of the username field:

  • VYourAddress.gamingpc
  • VYourAddress.server01
  • VYourAddress.homeoffice

All workers using the same address are automatically aggregated under your dashboard.

3. Choosing threads

scrypt² uses ~128 MB of memory per hashing thread. As a rule of thumb, use no more threads than (free RAM ÷ 128 MB) and no more than your physical core count. Start with half your cores and tune for best hashrate per watt.

4. Watch your stats & get paid

  • Look up your dashboard at /miner/VRM_ADDRESS or use the search bar above.
  • Payout model: PPLNS. Pool fee: 0%.
  • Minimum payout: 1.0 VRM, sent automatically in batches.
  • Block rewards mature after 105 confirmations (coinbase maturity is 100 on Verium) before they become withdrawable.

FAQ

Why do rewards take a while?

Mined coins are locked by the Verium network for 100 blocks. The pool waits 105 confirmations before crediting so orphaned blocks never cause clawbacks.

What is a worker?

A label after the dot in your stratum username (for example VYourAddress.gamingpc) so you can tell machines apart. It has no effect on payouts — rewards always follow the VRM address.

Do I need to register?

No. There are no accounts, email, or passwords. Your Verium wallet address is your only identity — connect a CPU miner and start earning VRM.

What stratum URL do I use?

Point your Verium-capable cpuminer at stratum+tcp://mine.vericonomy.com:3333 with username VRM_ADDRESS.workerName and any password.
