f2pool launches Fractal Bitcoin (FB) mining pool

f2pool has launched the Fractal Bitcoin (FB) mining pool, supporting both permissionless mining and merged mining with BTC. The FB pool applies 1% PPLNS as the payout scheme.

Option 1: FB permissionless mining

To participate in permissionless FB mining, users need to register an f2pool account and configure their mining machines with their f2pool account name. The f2pool FB pool RUL is stratum+tcp://fb.f2pool.com:5700.

When choosing this option, please select the FB cointype in the top right corner to view mining information after logging in. For setting up payout wallets and other payout operations, make sure to select the FB coin type before proceeding.

Please refer to this mining tutorial.

Option 2: FB and BTC merged mining

BTC miners can receive FB merged mining rewards after adding their FB wallet address. If you choose to receive FB merged mining rewards, please ensure you add your FB wallet address to your BTC account settings at your earliest convenience.

Please note, FB merged mining rewards will start accruing only when the wallet address is successfully added. Make sure to add your wallet address as soon as possible. 

For instructions and essential information, please refer to our detailed tutorial.

These two mining options are separate systems. Mining rewards cannot be combined, and mining information will be displayed independently.

Also, for any option mentioned above, when setting up your payout wallets, ensure you add a Fractal Bitcoin mainnet wallet address to avoid any potential loss of rewards. 

Fractal is a scaling solution for Bitcoin, gradually extending the Bitcoin blockchain into a scalable computing system without breaking consistency with the Bitcoin main chain. FB uses the same SHA256d mining algorithm as BTC, allowing the use of the same mining machines. Visit their official website for more information.

Thank you for choosing f2pool! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us through f2pool’s customer support channels. Happy mining!
