Get started

One command. ~30 seconds.

Paste your Pearl wallet address. The installer drops a ~7 MB static binary into ~/.oysterpool/, points it at the nearest Oyster Pool edge, and prints the dashboard URL for your address. No signup, no whitelist, no KYC.

One command

Your install line, personalised

Drop in your Pearl wallet address. Worker name is whatever you want to see in the dashboard (defaults to rig-01).

curl -fSL https://oysterpool.com/install.sh \ | bash -s -- prl1p...YOUR_WALLET rig-01
Runs on Linux x86_64 with NVIDIA driver R535+ (CUDA 12.5 runtime). The installer verifies your driver + GPU compute capability, fetches a CUDA-dynamic tarball into ~/.oysterpool/, and prints the dashboard URL for your address.
What this gets you
Vardiff, server-side
Oyster Pool tunes share difficulty per worker every 30 s targeting ~10 shares/min. You don't need to pick a difficulty number.
GPU backend auto-selected
On hello the miner declares its GPUs; the pool routes you to the matching shape — Hopper R-1024, Blackwell R-128, Ada R-512, etc. No backend flag, no recompiles.
Per-GPU telemetry baked in
Every 10 s the miner pushes temp, power, fan, util, throttle state for each card. It shows up on your dashboard within seconds — no extra exporter, no Prometheus to install.
Open API for everything you see
The same REST + WebSocket endpoints the dashboard uses are public. Stand up your own monitoring, graphs, or alerts. Reference →
3 % fee, PPLNS, K=20 confirmations
Allocation runs over the last 2 hours of difficulty-weighted shares. Balance moves from balance_sats to mature_sats after 20 confirmations, then sweeps once the address holds ≥ 1 PRL.
Public proof-of-payout
Every block's PPLNS credit table is at /api/v1/blocks/{height}/credits— verify your cut against your own share log.
Hardware support

The miner auto-detects every supported card. The pool publishes one shape per family — your miner is routed there from hello.

Verify it's working
  1. 1. ~/.oysterpool/oysterpool-miner logs should show share accepted within a minute.
  2. 2. Visit /dashboard, paste your wallet — your worker appears with measured + reported hashrate.
  3. 3. Per-GPU temperature / power / utilisation refreshes every 10 s via WebSocket.
  4. 4. First PPLNS credit lands on the next block the pool finds; payout sweeps when your address crosses 1 PRL with K=20 confirmations.
