Honours
Not a trophy — a count. Days you did not stop.
Why four
Four standing honours, on four different axes — the most work, the longest unbroken run, the closest brush with a block, and the luck of the draw. They are separate on purpose: this pool exists for small miners, so the miner who brings the most hashrate is thanked without the pool becoming about who is biggest. None of them changes anyone’s odds of finding a block. Solo odds are your hashrate against the network, and nothing on this page moves them.
⚙️ The Backbone
The most work contributed over the last 7 days — the miner currently carrying the most of this pool.
59.30 TH/s over 7 days · 74.50 TH/s right now
Also holding the line: bc1qamt7rn…n5wt (23.90 TH/s over 7 days · 27.20 TH/s right now), bc1qsgcnwa…yufd (5.99 TH/s over 7 days · 16.10 TH/s right now)
🕯️ The Steadfast
The longest unbroken run on the pool right now — hashing without a single break. Size does not enter into it; a 900 GH/s rig that never blinks outranks a farm that comes and goes.
16d 8h unbroken · 4.14 TH/s
Also holding the line: bc1qamt7rn…n5wt (14d 14h unbroken · 23.90 TH/s), bc1qa2eajh…c8nt (5d 14h unbroken · 701.00 GH/s)
🎯 The Closest Brush
The closest anyone here has come to solving a block — the highest-difficulty share the pool has ever accepted. It is the one honour nobody can work toward: it is luck, caught and kept. Every brush close enough to ring the bell is logged on the vigil.

🔥 The Torch
This week’s torch-bearer, drawn by Bitcoin itself from every active community miner and weighted toward the smallest rigs. The pool does not choose. How the draw works.
Drawn from block #962,656
How these are measured
The Backbone uses difficulty-weighted work over a rolling 7 days, not a lifetime total and not raw hashrate. Accepted shares are already hashrate multiplied by time, so counting uptime again would penalise a break twice; and an all-time board would keep crowning miners who have long since left. The Steadfast counts seconds of continuous mining, ending the moment a gap appears. The Closest Brush is the single highest-difficulty share the pool has ever accepted from a community miner — all-time by nature, because a near miss does not expire. The Torch is drawn weekly from the newest Bitcoin block hash. All four exclude the operator’s own rigs — the house does not win its own honours.
