Get Started

Step 1

Get a Pearl address

Install the Pearl wallet and generate an address starting with prl1p….

Step 2

Run alpha-miner

One curl + one ./alpha-miner command — full setup in Quickstart below. On Windows, grab the native Windows installer.

curl -L -o alpha-miner https://pearl.alphapool.tech/downloads/alpha-miner
Step 3

Watch payouts arrive

First share in ~10 seconds. PPLNS payouts every 4 hours, 1 PRL minimum. Track live on the Dashboard by pasting your address.

Quickstart
# 1) Download the miner — source: https://github.com/AlphaMine-Tech/alpha-miner
# Linux x86_64, supports Volta/Ampere/Ada/Hopper/Blackwell auto-detect
curl -L -o alpha-miner https://pearl.alphapool.tech/downloads/alpha-miner
chmod +x alpha-miner

# 2) Replace YOUR_PRL_ADDRESS with your prl1p... wallet address, then run
# Recommended: pin a static difficulty for your card with --password "x;d=N" — it skips the
# vardiff warm-up and keeps your share rate steady from the first second. Pick your value in the Static difficulty tab.

Recommended: pin a static difficulty from the first run with --password "x;d=N" — it skips the vardiff warm-up and gives steady shares immediately (and is the safe choice for multi-rig HiveOS / mixed-card setups). Pick your card's value from the table below. Prefer hands-off? Leave the password as x and vardiff auto-tunes for you instead.
Static difficulty by card class

Add --password "x;d=<DIFFICULTY>" to your command line (or set PEARL_DIFFICULTY=<N> for Docker) to pin a static share difficulty. Recommended for every setup — it skips the vardiff warm-up and keeps your share rate steady from the first second; especially important for multi-GPU rigs and HiveOS. Wrong difficulty just means bumpier stats — you don't lose shares.

Before you start
If your rig already mines any GPU coin, the one-liner below just works. The binary is statically linked — its only runtime dependency is the NVIDIA driver (already present on any mining rig).
  • NVIDIA GPU: Turing through Blackwell + Hopper — RTX 20/30/40/50, T4, V100, Titan V, A100, L4/L40, H100/H200, B100/B200, CMP. Pre-Volta Pascal (GTX 10-series) lacks tensor cores and isn't supported.
  • AMD GPU: Radeon RX 6000/7000 (RDNA2/RDNA3) and MI300 (CDNA3) via the dedicated AMD build — use the AMD (Radeon) tab below. RX 9000 (RDNA4) coming soon. Bundles ROCm 7 user-space (no host ROCm); needs the amdgpu driver.
  • OS: Linux x86_64 (Ubuntu 14.04+, Debian 8+, RHEL 7+, glibc 2.18+), or Windows 10/11 — run the native Windows installer (v1.0.0, no WSL2/Docker), the Docker Windows installer, or WSL2; see the Windows tab below. Verified on Windows 11 with NVIDIA RTX cards.
  • Renting cloud GPUs? Use the Docker / RunPod / vast.ai tab — one docker run command, works anywhere with NVIDIA Docker.
  • Driver: Any reasonably modern NVIDIA driver (R470+ for Ampere, R525+ for Ada, R550+ for Blackwell). Already installed on any mining rig.
  • Network: Outbound TCP to us2.alphapool.tech:5566. No inbound ports needed.
  • VRAM: ~3 GB per GPU. ~36 MB disk for the binary.

FAQ

Quick answers about Pearl mining and the AlphaPool setup.

Payout structure
Time-weighted PPLNS — payouts proportional to recent sustained contribution

Whenever the pool finds a block, the reward is distributed across miners proportionally to a time-weighted score of their recent valid shares. Every share you submit adds to your score, and that contribution decays smoothly over time. Your payout share on any given block reflects your accumulated, decay-weighted hashrate at that moment.

How the decay works
  • Half-life is 65 minutes
  • A share counts for 100% when fresh, 50% after 65 min, 25% after 2h 10m
  • Older contributions fade gradually — no hard cutoff
What this means for you
  • Steady mining is rewarded — payouts track your sustained hashrate
  • Brief disconnects barely affect your share; prior contribution lingers
  • Bursts don't get over-credited at the expense of steady miners

To audit your share: look up your address (miner search, top bar) and compare your reported hashrate to your block payout fraction. Over a long horizon they will converge — your payout share equals your hashrate share of the pool.

What is Pearl?

Pearl (PRL) is a Layer-1 blockchain that uses Proof-of-Useful-Work — mining is performed as a by-product of arbitrary matrix multiplication. The protocol is open-source under the ISC license at github.com/pearl-research-labs/pearl. Mainnet launched 2026-04-27.

What GPUs does this pool support?

Supported by the current alpha-miner binary: Turing (RTX 20-series, T4, CMP 30HX/40HX/50HX), Volta (V100, Titan V, CMP 100-210), Ampere (RTX 30-series, A100, CMP 70HX/90HX/170HX/220HX), Ada (RTX 40-series, L4/L40), Hopper (H100, H200), Blackwell (RTX 50-series, B100/B200). The miner uses ~3 GB of VRAM and auto-detects all CUDA devices.

Not supported: Pre-Volta (Pascal GTX 10-series and older) lacks the tensor cores Pearl's PoW needs. CPU mining is not supported.

Can I mine on rented cloud GPUs (RunPod, vast.ai, Lambda)?

Yes — pull our Docker image and pass your address as an env var. See the Docker / RunPod / vast.ai tab for the full command. The image (alphaminetech/pearl-miner) bundles the alpha-miner binary on top of nvidia/cuda:12.4.1-runtime, so it works on any host with Docker + the NVIDIA container toolkit. For RunPod specifically: create a Custom Template, set the image to alphaminetech/pearl-miner, leave Container Start Command empty, and add PEARL_ADDRESS + PEARL_WORKER as environment variables.

If you're running cloud arbitrage (renting cheap GPU-hours below their PRL/USD payout value), set PEARL_DIFFICULTY to skip the vardiff ramp-up time — instant steady-state share rate.

Can I mine on Windows?

Yes — natively. Download the native Windows installer (alpha-miner-windows.exe) — no WSL2 or Docker required — and run it from PowerShell or Command Prompt with your wallet address (same flags as Linux; full steps in Get Started → Windows). Prefer a guided setup? The Docker Windows installer (desktop Start / Stop / Logs shortcuts, auto-updates) and plain WSL2 both work too. Windows SmartScreen may warn that the app isn't code-signed yet — click More info → Run anyway.

When should I set a static difficulty (x;d=N)?

The pool runs an automatic VarDiff loop that retunes your difficulty to ~1 share per 10 seconds per worker. The x;d=N static-diff override follows the open StratumX convention used by many other pools — if you've used it elsewhere, it works the same here. VarDiff works well for most setups, but a few cases benefit from pinning a static difficulty in your password field:

Format: --password "x. Pick a value from the table in the Static difficulty tab. Wrong picks aren't dangerous — slightly bumpier stats, no lost shares.

What's the pool fee?

3% on PPLNS. One of the lowest fees on the Pearl network. Fees subsidize operating cost (US East server, 24/7 ops); any surplus goes to upstream protocol development.

How does PPLNS work here?

AlphaPool uses time-weighted PPLNS with a 65-minute half-life — see Payout structure at the top of this page for the full breakdown. In short: each block reward is split in proportion to every miner's recent valid shares, weighted so fresh shares count fully and older ones decay smoothly. Steady mining is rewarded and brief disconnects barely dent your share.

What's the minimum payout?

1 PRL. Payouts run every 4 hours; balances below the floor roll over until cleared.

How long until I see my first payout?

First share usually arrives within 10 seconds of starting your miner. First payout typically lands within 24–48 hours of starting if you have meaningful hashrate. Smaller miners may take longer to accumulate the 1 PRL minimum.

Why is the pool hashrate sometimes shown as "—"?

AlphaPool opened 2026-05-14 (Pearl mainnet launched 2026-04-27). Hashrate displays go live once we have enough share data to compute a stable estimate — usually within the first hour of mining.

Is the source code open?

The pool server is internal for now. The Pearl protocol itself is fully open-source. The integration spec for connecting a custom miner will be published once stable.

I have a question or issue — who do I talk to?

GPU Arch VRAM v1.6.x v1.7.2 v1.7.3 v1.7.4 Δ vs v1.6 Power Diff Core / Mem OC Notes
Loading…

Static difficulty values are recommended starting points. Small rigs without shares in the first minute should try the next lower value from the Static Difficulty tab. too-easy share rejects = go higher.

Recommended clocks are conservative starting points. Your specific silicon will vary — adjust in 50 MHz steps and watch reject rate. Mem OC matters more than core OC for Pearl's NoisyGEMM PoW.

Versions: v1.6 added Blackwell tensor paths; v1.7.2 introduced power-tuning; v1.7.3 fixed a duplicate-share corner case; v1.7.4 (current) is the revised production build with measurable per-arch gains.
