Quickstart guide to mining DASH with EMCD
Enter your device’s IP address in your browser’s address bar while connected to the same network as your hardware. (More details in 'How to log into an ASIC.')
In your device’s settings, specify:
Worker name in the format
<login>.<worker_name>Example:
emcdlogin.worker01For multiple workers, see 'How to name multiple workers.'
Stratum URLs based on server locations:

Choosing hardware for mining DASH
To mine Dash (DASH), you need specialized hardware that supports the X11 algorithm, which is used in the network protocol.
Mining on regular devices, such as smartphones and laptops, is inefficient
Factors affecting DASH reward calculations:
The hashrate (computational power) of your equipment
Power consumption of your device
Electricity rates in your region or hosting facility
Network difficulty and pool luck when finding blocks
Step-by-step: How to start mining DASH with EMCD
Email — enter your email address, which will be linked to your account. You’ll receive notifications there, for example, about the status of your devices. You can also use it to recover access if you forget your account password.
Password — create your secret combination to log into your account. Choose a strong password that includes not only letters but also numbers and special characters.
If you have a promo code, click 'Got a promo code?' and enter it.
You can also sign up with Google, Apple, or Telegram.
After creating your account, you’ll receive an email from us — open it and confirm your email address.

How to set up DASH mining hardware?
1. How to log into an ASIC?
To access your ASIC settings, enter its IP address into your browser’s address bar while connected to the same network as the device.
How to find the IP using IP Scanner?
Go to the IP Scanner website, download, and install the application.
Enter the required IP address range using the 'IP' button in the toolbar.
Click 'Scan.' Once the scanning is complete, you’ll get a list of devices in the network.
Find your miner in the list, copy its IP address, and paste it into the address bar of any browser.
IP Scanner is third-party software. The pool is not responsible for its operation (cl. 5.9 ToS).
2. How to configure a connection to the EMCD pool?
After logging into the device, go to the connection settings section. In the screenshot below, this is 'Configuration' → 'Pool Settings'. On your device, it might be located in a differently named section, such as 'Miner' or 'Configuration.'
2.1. Which stratum URLs to use for connecting to EMCD?
In the Address/URL field, enter the stratum URLs for connecting to the pool.
Be sure to fill in all three addresses. For a stable connection, you need stratums with minimal network latency (ping). You must list them in order of increasing ping: the earlier the stratum is in the list, the lower its ping should be.
We do our best to keep the pool running smoothly, but uninterrupted operation can’t be guaranteed. That’s why we recommend filling in all three stratum addresses: if one becomes unavailable, your equipment will switch to a backup automatically. Setting up backup stratums and reconnection is your responsibility (cl. 5.2–5.5 ToS).
Only the first address will be used for mining. The other two will be used automatically if there are issues with the primary one.
Stratum list by server location:
stratum+tcp://gate.emcd.network:8888— Russiastratum+tcp://eu.emcd.network:8888— Europestratum+tcp://kz.emcd.network:8888— Kazakhstanstratum+tcp://cn.emcd.network:8888— Chinastratum+tcp://us.emcd.network:8888— America
2.2. How to name a worker? How to name multiple workers?
In the 'Worker' field, create and enter your device name in the format login.worker.
The dot is a required part of the name.
Before the dot, instead of
login, use your EMCD username. You can find it in the browser version of the website under the 'Profile' section, or in the app by tapping the letter E at the bottom of the main screen.After the dot, instead of
worker, enter the name you want to use for identifying your device in your account dashboard. If you have multiple devices, use different names after the dot so they appear separately in your dashboard. For example:emcdlogin.worker01oremcdlogin.miner_M50.
Do not use the following characters in a worker name: @&₽\|«»"
2.3. Do I need to fill in the password field when configuring the device?
You can leave the 'Password' field empty.
2.4. Do I need to restart the device after configuration?
After saving the settings, it’s best to restart the device — for some models, this is required for proper operation. If the settings are correct, the device will appear in the Mining section within 20 minutes.
At first, your worker will be listed under 'unstable workers' because, during the first hour after connecting, the device is syncing with the pool. After that, it will appear in the 'active' list.

What determines the amount of DASH mining rewards?
For DASH, the pool calculates rewards using the PPS+ (Pay Per Share Plus) method, which combines elements of PPS and PPLNS:
Base reward (PPS): Calculated from the valid shares your hardware submits to the pool, regardless of whether a block is found.
Block reward addition (PPLNS element): If the pool finds a block, transaction fees and additional block rewards are distributed among participating workers according to submitted shares.
Estimated rewards, profitability calculators, and hashrate charts are provided strictly for informational and monitoring purposes and do not guarantee future payout amounts (cl. 4.15, 6.4 ToS).
Inquiries regarding accruals or payouts are accepted by customer support strictly within 2 calendar days (cl. 4.8 ToS).
Mining is prohibited or requires registration in some countries. You are responsible for the legality of your mining and of connecting your equipment to the power grid (cl. 2.6, 6.9 ToS).
