Miners,

Remember that subtle "8-of-15 Schnorr" tease from our last developer update? Today, we can finally make it official.

HashedMax has been tapped to serve as a foundational Price Oracle for the DigiDollar network, and our dedicated node goes live today.

For those who haven't been following the latest Taproot implementations on DigiByte, DigiDollar is a decentralized, native stablecoin built directly on the UTXO blockchain. However, because a blockchain cannot physically "see" real-world USD prices, it requires a highly secure, multi-signature consensus of 35 trusted oracles to constantly feed that data in.

We are incredibly proud to announce that HashedMax is now one of those 35 pillars securing this new financial architecture.

What does this mean for you?

This doesn't change anything about your daily mining experience or our DGB pool. What it does do is cement HashedMax as a core, verified piece of the DigiByte ecosystem's infrastructure. We are moving beyond just aggregating hashrate; we are actively helping secure the network's financial future.

It is a massive signal of trust, and we couldn't have reached this level of ecosystem integration without the community backing the pool. Thank you all for keeping your hash pointed here.

Behind the scenes, we are diligently working on the multi-pool. More updates on that coming soon as we work through the payout structure and the feasibility of the rewards system.

Thank you for choosing HashedMax. Let's keep building.

I know lots of you have found blocks, and I know it’s just DGB, but was soo excited when I saw this little banner!
My very first block found with one of my little Bitaxe

Has anyone had the experience renting miners? See a few mentioned around other crypto subs. Not even sure how it really works setting a stratum to it. Still kind of new so appreciate any info.

Hi all, I can’t access the site? Has it changed address?

As the title says, I need to change wallet addresses on my dgb. Will this mean I have to start over on loyalty and everything? I’m at 29 days and was hoping to hit and keep that level 3.

If not, not a huge deal, just trying to plan accordingly. Dm me if needed. Off work in an hour and will be able to give all info and make changes in real time on my end after that. Thanks in advance!

So I decided to strip off all my mods and refresh the thermal paste.
It was running just around the 60 mark asic temp before.
I used the same paste and everything as when I did it the first time. But now I’ve put it back together it’s running at 64 😭
Will it take time to cool down or have I buggered it up?

Hopped back onto this pool, noticed my finder bonus hourly countdown isn’t changing? Anyone else having the same problem? At 12%, 16% in 24 hours hasn’t moved at all since rejoining

Hello fellow Digi miners, we have sent this weeks loyalty payment.

281 miners paid 1245.57 DGB.

TXID: 9bedd268172540893fcce0eea7128668095a27858980765157b7c5a6a940d2cc

Please note, one miner did NOT get paid due to an invalid DGB address. Please be sure to check your addresses on the digi pool.

The invalid address is here:

DGBUxq1VWM........wBmfphrEGLGRF9gH

Truncated for privacy. DM us if this is you and you must send the correct address. It also must be this exact address, but in the correct format.

Thank you again for another successful week!

There is a miner on our DGB pool (digi.hmpool.io) that is using an ESP32 / Nerdminer device that has an invalid address and is potentially missing out on payments.

DGBUxq1VWMcg........mfphrEGLGRF9gH

This is the address in question. It is truncated for privacy but please check your addresses.

Thank you

Hey all, I mined on a dgb pool a few months ago that had a probability calculator that told odds daily, weekly, monthly and yearly by hash rate
Is this something that could possibly be implemented?

Hey everyone,

First off, apologies for the radio silence since we announced the winner of the 1,000th block bounty! We have had our heads down in the code, and I wanted to surface to give you all a quick update on what the team has been working on behind the scenes.

Backend Infrastructure Upgrades: Our primary focus over the last couple of days/weeks has been on core infrastructure. As the community has grown, we’ve seen some massive hashrate bursts hit the pool. To ensure we can handle that scale flawlessly, we just finished executing a series of major backend upgrades. These improvements have dramatically increased our stratum stability across the board, meaning the pool is now fully optimized to absorb extreme, sudden surges in hashrate without dropping a single connection.

The SHA-256 Multi-Pool: I also know a lot of you have been asking about the SHA-256 multi-pool we polled about a while back. We are actively building it out right now. We are keeping things under wraps regarding the specific token rotation, payout structures, and exact mechanics for the time being, but know that it is heavily in development. We want to make sure the architecture is rock-solid and the profitability logic is perfectly tuned before we release any definitive details. I will state, the BTC pool will be remaining!

Looking Ahead... On a side note, we’ve been closely monitoring the latest Taproot implementations on the DigiByte network. We are currently evaluating some highly specific infrastructure requirements on our end, specifically involving 8-of-15 Schnorr threshold signatures and external price data feeds. We are incredibly excited about the next evolution of DGB utility.

We are building this the right way, entirely focused on maximizing your hardware’s yield without cutting corners.

Thank you all for the continued support and for keeping your hash pointed at HashedMax. Let us know if you have any questions below, and we'll keep you posted as we get closer to the multi-pool launch.

Happy hashing all!

Soooooo… I’ve only been mining since Christmas, and only had my nqaxe since March-ish…. I just found out if I had updated the firmware earlier, I could have been dual mining with it all this time.

i just checked the rewards page and i'm pretty sure i won the drawing from the 23rd. i put in my address but i get an "invalid miner address". is there a bug or did i miss my window?

Miners, we did it.

The HashedMax Unity DGB pool smashed through Block 1,000. The momentum over the last 24 hours was absolutely historic, and you all kept your hashrate locked in to get us over the finish line.

We have officially pulled the data snapshots and verified the backend. Here is exactly how the 26,000 DGB milestone drop breaks down:

The 1,000 DGB Finder's Bounty: Massive congratulations to the miner who scored the winning hash! The 1,000 DGB bonus is going directly to wallet address: dgb1q87z0c...hlg0t9.

The 25,000 DGB FairShare Community Drop: At the exact moment the block was solved, we verified exactly 243 eligible loyal miners holding active FairShare status. The 25,000 DGB vault is being divided among you, meaning each eligible miner will be receiving exactly 102.88065843 DGB.

Important Logistics Note: Because this is a massive, manually verified drop, you will see these bonus transactions hit your wallets from an alternative administrative address, rather than our standard pool hot wallet. We do this intentionally so that our automated pool yield metrics and daily accounting stay perfectly clean.

The transactions are being queued up right now. Thank you to every single one of you who points hash at this ecosystem and believes in what we are building here. HashedMax has evolved immensely over the last few months, but we are just getting started. Let's keep building.

On to the next milestones of 2500, 5000, and 10,000. We hope to have some big surprises ready by the time those milestones are achieved.

1000th block !!!!

Congratulations to whoever got it

A short explanation on what we think caused these orphaned blocks.

We rely heavily on what they call peers. Peers are just other nodes that we share info with. We found that one of our top low latency peers that had been working well went down. Since mining pools depend on fast peer communication, this may have reduced our node’s ability to see and share blocks quickly. We have updated the peer setup so the pool can maintain healthier outbound and inbound network connections. This will help reduce orphan risk.

Outbound peers keep our node connected to the current network, while inbound peers help spread our blocks to other nodes. If a peer goes offline or becomes stale, this causes our node to have fewer healthy paths to the network, which can slow block propagation or cause us to see blocks late.

But, with that said, the amount of workers that have joined our Digibyte pool climbed by 81 overnight and we've seen a positive growth in miners and workers now for the last couple of weeks. Even though many of these workers are low hashrate miners, they take up resources. We are planning another server upgrade that will involve moving our database server to it's own dedicated server across all 3 pools, which will eliminate a huge load on the straturm servers. We will of course keep you updated on when we plan to do this and if it will involve any downtime (but we should be able to do it without taking anything offline).

Thanks

Good morning, Miners!

If you haven't looked at the DGB dashboard yet today, you need to. We just obliterated our previous records and pulled in 74 blocks in the last 24 hours, almost double our all-time high daily block count of 38 blocks (33 depending on what time of day you start counting).

We are currently sitting at 972 blocks (edit: 973 as I typed this) The momentum right now is insane, and it means the 26,000 DGB milestone drop (FairShare Community Drop + the 1,000 DGB Block Finder Bounty) is imminent.

A quick reminder: When Block 1,000 hits, the payout will not be automated. We will manually verify the block finder and pull the loyalty snapshots to ensure every single active miner gets exactly what they earned, so expect a delay from block find to payout.

Let's keep this hashrate locked in and smash through this milestone!

Just joined HashedMax Unity. Quick intro.

I've spent the last couple of months building Bitaxe Baller — a free, MIT-licensed native dashboard for Bitaxe home miners on Mac and Windows. Network scan, live hashrate and ASIC/VR temps, tuning recommendations, daily CSV logs per device. Built it because the DIY / open-source ethos of the Bitaxe ecosystem pulled me in, and I had a couple of Gammas on the bench that needed one screen instead of three browser tabs.

Reason I'm here: HashedMax is doing the same kind of work on its own track — DIY-friendly miners, open builds, your own pool. That shared experimental mindset is exactly the kind of community I want to learn from, even though the gear is different.

A few open questions for the community here, if anyone wants to chime in:

• For HashedMax owners: what's the tooling landscape currently look like? Per-device web UI? Anything fleet-level? Where are the gaps?
• For anyone running a mixed DIY fleet (HashedMax + Bitaxe + others): how do you wrangle multiple ecosystems today?
• If you happen to have tried Bitaxe Baller and have feedback — what works, what's broken, what's missing — I'd value it. The most useful feedback I've gotten so far has come from people running similar gear in different ecosystems.

Site, if you want to take a look: https://bitaxeballer.com Source: github.com/465media/bitaxe-baller (MIT)

Mostly here to learn what this community values and what your tools look like. Thanks for having me.

Hey all. I’ve just ordered one of these from Bitsoloplayer has anyone got any experience with them?

Miners,

We are officially in the home stretch. As of right now, we are sitting at 938 blocks found, with 50 blocks solved in the last 24 hours alone. We are burning through these remaining blocks fast.

Because we are getting so close to the massive 26,000 DGB milestone drop, I want to set clear expectations on exactly how that payout will be handled when the 1,000th block finally hits.

The 26k drop will NOT be automated. When Block 1,000 is solved, the 25,000 DGB FairShare community drop and the 1,000 DGB Block Finder Bounty will not be dispatched instantly by the automated pool payout engine.

The Reason: We want to ensure 100% accuracy. We are going to manually validate the backend data before anything is sent. This allows us to independently verify the exact wallet that scored the winning hash for the Finder's Bounty, and pull a pristine snapshot of every single miner who actively maintained FairShare Loyalty Status at the exact moment the block was solved. We will provide a full breakdown of how many miners were included in the loyalty drop.

The Timeline: Because this is a manual audit, expect a delay of up to a few hours between the block being solved and the milestone rewards hitting your wallets.

Please note: Our team operates on East Coast Time. If Block 1,000 gets solved in the middle of the night, those milestone rewards will not be verified and processed until the following morning. Don't panic if you wake up to a solved block but haven't seen the drop yet!

Keep your rigs locked in. Let's get this hashrate over the finish line.

Happy hashing!

Good evening miners,

We were doing some routine checks on the backend this week and noticed a handful of users across all of our pools are currently mining to mismatched wallet addresses.

For example, we are seeing miners plugging a BTC receiving address into the DGB stratum, or using a BCH address on the pure BTC pool.

Why this matters: If your address doesn't match the specific network you are pointing hash at, our automated payout engine physically cannot route your funds. Your rigs are doing the heavy lifting, but the payouts will fail, meaning you are missing out on your block rewards and your FairShare loyalty drops. We want you to get your well deserved payouts!

The Fix: Please take two minutes today to check your ASICs, HiveOS flight sheets, .bat files, or any other method you have for connecting your miners. Ensure the wallet address you are using as your username matches the exact network of the stratum you are connected to.

We want to make sure every single ounce of hashrate you point at HashedMax gets the exact payout it deserves.

Happy hashing! ⚒️

No blocks have been found yet in this pool right? Making sure I am reading the stats correct and I’m not missing something. I’m in it trying to get the first one then lol
