01 — GET A MINER
Start with a tiny computer.
Choose a plug-and-play Mini Miner, or use supported hardware you already own.
Mini Miners is built for the person who always wanted to try cryptocurrency mining but never knew where to start. Get a ready-to-go miner and follow a few simple steps — or bring your own hardware, flash the firmware, and go as deep as you want.
We handle the confusing parts so your first experience can be about participating, learning, and having fun.
Choose a plug-and-play Mini Miner, or use supported hardware you already own.
For our ready-to-go miners: power on, connect from your phone or computer, enter Wi-Fi and account details.
Your miner contributes work to Mini Miners and earns MINI according to the network's reward rules.
Mini Miners is currently running a development Testnet. Pioneer Network will be our first public network where miners can earn real MINI.
Account activation will cost just $1, one time. This small fee helps discourage mass account creation and protects fair participation for ordinary miners.
Buying an official Mini Miner? Activation is included. Prefer to build your own miner or use free mining software? You can activate an account separately for $1.
Public account registration will open when Pioneer Network launches.
Beginner-friendly does not mean locked down. Mini Miners is designed to welcome first-timers without taking anything away from experienced miners.
You shouldn't need to learn programming before you can learn mining.
Skip the tour and get straight to building, flashing, tuning and experimenting.
Mini Miners removes the barrier to getting started, not the freedom to go further.
Mining on microcontrollers opens the door to inexpensive, quiet and low-energy participation.
Low-power hardware makes off-grid experiments practical. Solar is an option, not a requirement.
Build it, flash it, benchmark it, modify it. We want curious hardware people here too.
Mini Miners is being built as an accessible, low-power mining network — not a promise of guaranteed profit. We want the value to come from participation, experimentation, community, utility and a network people can actually understand.
