Minerium’s BBP is a new way to participate in Bitcoin mining without owning hardware. Instead of leasing machines, you purchase a BBP pass that represents a slice of mining power for a specific time period, giving you a chance to discover real Bitcoin blocks.

• Traditional Pools: Traditional mining pools share rewards among thousands of miners.

• Micro-Split Power: Minerium micro-splits hash power into BBP units (1 TH slices).

• Full Rewards: If your slice discovers a block, you receive the full block reward, like solo mining.

• Hassle-Free: No hardware setup, no maintenance, no hidden fees.

A single BBP pass costs $2. You can buy multiple passes and select different durations (from one block attempt to 30 days). This makes Bitcoin mining accessible at a fixed, predictable price.

If your BBP slice hits a block, you earn the entire Bitcoin Block Reward (currently 3.125 BTC, until the next halving in 2028). Transaction fees are processed by Minerium.

Yes. Minerium operates as a registered business with a registered trademark for mining pool infrastructure. BBP is not a lottery or gambling product; it’s a modernized, transparent mining participation system.

• If you’re a solo miner: Register at the Minerium Mining Pool, connect your hardware, and start mining with full visibility and reliable payouts.

• If you’re a prospector (BBP user): Register at the Minerium BBP Pool, purchase your BBP pass (e.g., $2 for 1 TH over 30 days), and your pass will automatically participate in Bitcoin block attempts. If your slice discovers a block, the full reward is credited to your wallet.

• If you’re a Mining Pool or hash provider: Contact our Minerium VIP Team to discuss custom integrations, hash monetization, and partnership opportunities.

Yes. Minerium removes the need for expensive mining rigs, electricity, and cooling. You simply buy BBP passes online, and Minerium connects you directly to real Bitcoin mining power.

• Crypto beginners who want a low-cost entry into Bitcoin mining.

• Miners who prefer fixed income over volatile pool rewards.

• Investors seeking exposure to Bitcoin mining without hardware risk.

• Mining pools looking to expand services and monetize hash power in new ways.

Minerium does not require rerouting or disrupting existing pool operations. Pools simply provide API access so Minerium can allocate and track hash slices.

• Hash slices: Each slice represents a micro-allocation of x TH for a defined duration. These slices are tied to either miners (in hybrid solo mode) or BBP participants (prospectors).

• Block discoveries: If a slice finds a block:

  • Assigned to a miner → that miner receives the full block reward.

  • Assigned to a prospector → the prospector receives the full block reward, subject to compliance (tax forms and required government documentation) before payout.

• Transaction fees: These remain with Minerium’s pool, ensuring transparent and predictable operations.

This structure allows pools to continue running as usual, while enabling Minerium to democratize mining access — never splitting block rewards, always whole to either miner or participant.

No. Minerium micro-splits hash power into time-based slices without affecting block reward distribution at the pool level. Rewards flow as usual, but Minerium’s system assigns “ownership” of slices to BBP buyers.

• New revenue stream: Monetize idle hash power by selling slices to retail buyers.
• Zero disruption: Keep standard pool operations intact.
• Brand partnerships: Co-branded BBP offerings possible for pools.
• Transparency: Full tracking of slice allocation and payouts.

If a slice finds a block:

• If allocated to a miner:  miner keeps 100% of the block reward.
• If allocated to a participant: the participant receives the entire block reward.

Transaction fees remain with Minerium’s pool.

BBP is Minerium’s system that lets anyone participate in Bitcoin mining without owning hardware. You buy affordable “pans” (time-slices of real hash power). If your slice finds the next block, you receive the full block reward in Bitcoin.

Pans start at just $2. The price is fixed, but you can buy as many pans as you like from the available pool.

Each pan gives you x TH of hash power, and the amount depends on the time duration you choose:

• Shorter sessions: higher hash power per pan
• Longer sessions: lower hash power per pan

This way, every $2 pan is fair and transparent; you simply choose the duration and number of pans that fit your strategy.

It depends on the option you choose:

• 1 block attempt (≈ 10 minutes)
• 1 day (≈ 144 blocks)
• 1 month (≈ 4320 blocks)

Like gold panning, sometimes you strike, sometimes you don’t. If no block is found within your time slice, the session ends without a Bitcoin reward.

No. BBP is tied directly to real Bitcoin mining hash power. Each pan has a genuine probability of hitting the next block, just like professional solo miners.

If your pan/session discovers a Bitcoin block, you are entitled to the entire block reward. Minerium does not split rewards; they always go whole to either the miner or the prospector.

To stay compliant with government regulations:

• Before payout, we will collect the required tax forms and identification documents according to your jurisdiction.
• Minerium will handle withholding and reporting where legally required.
• After compliance checks are complete, the net Bitcoin reward will be transferred directly to your registered Bitcoin wallet.

This ensures that all payouts are transparent, lawful, and protect both the participant and Minerium in any jurisdiction.

Solo Mining means mining completely independently with your own hash power. If your miner discovers a block, you receive the entire block reward (currently 3.125 BTC until the next halving), without splitting it with anyone else.

However, if your miner does not find a block, you earn nothing during that time—there are no partial payouts. This is why solo mining carries high risk but also the highest possible reward.

With Minerium, solo miners can also choose our Hybrid Solo Mining option. In this model:

• Your idle hash slices can be sold through Minerium’s BBP engine, giving you steady USD payouts to help cover electricity and operational costs.
• Any unused slices still keep mining solo, so you always retain a chance at the full block reward.

Whether you pick pure Solo Mining or Hybrid Solo Mining, one principle remains: We never split the difference. The reward always goes whole—either to you as the miner, or to one lucky BBP participant.

Minerium offers two modes for miners: Full Solo Mining and Hybrid Solo Mining (Solo Hybrid).

Full Solo Mining:
Your entire hash power is committed to solo mining. If you find a block, you keep the entire reward. No sharing, no splitting.

Hybrid Solo Mining (Solo Hybrid):
This model blends solo mining with Minerium’s BBP (Bitcoin Block Panning) engine:

• BBP Sales: Minerium sells your idle hash power (in time-slices) to BBP participants, generating USD payouts that can help cover your electricity and operational costs.
• No Wasted Power: If any of your time-slices go unused or unsold, they automatically continue mining solo, keeping your block-finding chance alive.
• Control & Flexibility: You decide how much of your hash rate goes toward BBP sales versus solo mining. By default, Minerium fills all idle time-slices for you.

This system helps democratize Bitcoin; Either you, the miner, hit the block and keep the full reward, or one lucky BBP participant gets it.

No matter what, we never split the difference. Rewards are always whole, never diluted.

When talking about mining pool payment methods, it helps to first understand that mining profit has two parts:

1. Block Reward: currently 3.125 BTC per Bitcoin block (until the next halving).
2. Transaction Fees: the additional fees included in each block’s transactions.

Now, here’s how the different settlement methods work:

• PPS (Pay Per Share): You get paid a fixed amount for every valid share you submit, no matter if a block is actually found. This reduces risk but also lowers upside, since rewards are averaged out across all miners.
• PPLNS (Pay Per Last N Shares): Rewards are based on the number of shares you contributed within the last “N” window of shares once a block is found. This means your payout depends on luck and timing as well as your share contribution.
• PPS+: Similar to PPS for block rewards, but also includes transaction fees shared proportionally among miners.
• FPPS (Full Pay Per Share): Combines PPS with a fixed share of average transaction fees. Payments are predictable and steady, but diluted across all contributors.
• Solo: Unlike the pooled models above, solo mining means you are on your own. If your miner finds a block, you get the full block reward (and transaction fees) for yourself. If not, you get nothing.

With Minerium’s Solo & Hybrid Solo model, we extend the Solo concept further:

1. Full Solo Mining: You keep 100% of the reward when your machine finds a block.
2. Hybrid Solo Mining: Our BBP engine can sell your idle hash slices to participants (for USD payouts), while any unsold slices keep mining solo—giving you both steady income and a chance at a full block reward.

Unlike PPS, PPLNS, or FPPS, we never split the difference. Rewards always go whole—either to the miner or to one lucky BBP participant.
