== Mining guide ==
=== Get suitable hardware ===
View our [https://www.f2pool.com/miners?currency_code=btc#list-head miners page] to discover the most profitable ASIC machines for BTC.
=== Configure the miner ===
Your miner must be connected to one of the F2Pool servers listed below and you must use a mining account registered on F2Pool for your hashrate and revenue to be recorded and monitored.
* 🇪🇺 EU — <code>stratum+tcp://btc-eu.f2pool.com:3333</code>
* 🇷🇺 RU — <code>stratum+tcp://btc-mow.f2pool.com:3333</code>
* 🇺🇸 NA — <code>stratum+tcp://btc-us.f2pool.com:3333</code>
* 🇨🇳 CN — <code>stratum+tcp://btc.f2pool.com:1314</code>
* 🇭🇰 HK — <code>stratum+tcp://btc-hk.f2pool.com:3333</code>
* 🇸🇬 SG — <code>stratum+tcp://btc-sg.f2pool.com:3333</code>
Ports 1314, 3333 and 25 can be used as alternative ports for each server.
Enter the following information on your mining device:
* URL: <code>stratum+tcp://btc-eu.f2pool.com:3333</code>
* Username: ''username''.''workerName''
* Password: ''anything''
Note: ''workerName is optional, however we recommend connecting each mining device with a separate workerName for efficient monitoring''.
=== Add a payout address ===
A payout address is required to receive your mining revenue, and you can add/change your payout address from [https://www.f2pool.com/user/signin?next=%2Fuser%2Faccount#tab-wallet Payout Settings].
Mining revenue is distributed daily to every user that reaches the payout threshold. The payout threshold is 0.005 BTC and details about payout method, fees and threshold can be found [https://blog.f2pool.com/en/faq-en/the-threshold-for-each-coin here].
If you do not have an address yet, you need to get a wallet first. We recommend [https://cobo.com/ Cobo Wallet] and [https://bixin.com/ Bixin Wallet]. You can find an extensive list of wallet options on [https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet?step=1 bitcoin.org]. Alternatively you can choose a custodial wallet (exchange) such as [https://www.binance.com/en Binance] or [https://www.okex.com/ OKEx].
=== Set up and receive merged mining rewards (ELA, VCASH, NMC) ===
While mining BTC, miners can also receive merged mining rewards for ELA, VCASH, and NMC. View our helpful [https://medium.com/f2pool/mine-btc-with-f2pool-and-receive-ela-vcash-and-nmc-merged-mining-rewards-52cc196c4333 Merged Mining guide] to set up and start receiving your daily payouts.
Please note: ''Unlike your BTC revenue, merged mining rewards do not accumulate in your balance unless you have set up the payout address''.
