HashMine FAQs
HashMine NFTs — Rewards FAQ
How much can I earn with a HashMine NFT? Rewards are variable and historically have annualized around 74% APY under similar conditions. Actual results can be higher or lower dependant on conditions listed below.
How do tiers affect rewards? Each NFT maps to a share of an ASIC miner’s output. Bronze earns 25% of a unit, Silver earns 50%, Gold earns 100%. Your wBTC payout scales directly with your tier, all have the same APY.
Will I get the exact same wBTC every two weeks? Not exactly. Mining is dynamic, so values are variable. However, value can swing higher as often as they swing lower, and strong periods can compound to your advantage.
Does BTC price matter for my rewards? Yes. You receive wBTC, so the BTC amount is what is mined, if BTC price rises, the USD value of your payout rises with it. If BTC appreciates over time, prior pay-outs also increase in USD value. When are rewards paid and in what form? Every two weeks, in wBTC, airdropped to your wallet. Bronze, Silver, and Gold receive their proportional share for that period.
Is APY guaranteed? No. APY is an annualized, variable figure that reflects live mining conditions. Our objective is to keep uptime high, fees low, and tuning sharp so rewards remain competitive across cycles.
What Causes Higher Pay-outs?
Transaction fee spikes Busy on-chain activity increases block rewards. Fees stack on top of the block subsidy and can drive noticeably larger pay-outs.
Difficulty easing or hashrate dropping If global difficulty or total network hashrate softens, your share of BTC per terahash rises, increasing rewards.
Pool performance and positive variance Good pool luck in a period means more blocks found than average, which translates into higher pay-outs.
High uptime and optimized tuning Clean airflow, tuned firmware, low electric cost, and strong connectivity maximize effective hashrate and minimize rejected shares, boosting net output.
What Causes Lower Pay-outs?
Difficulty increases or more miners join You earn slightly less BTC for the same hashrate, when competition rises.
Quiet fee environment Lower on-chain activity means fewer fees on top of the subsidy.
Short maintenance or network hiccups Brief windows for updates or connectivity can trim a portion of a period.
Thresholds and rounding Tiny amounts can roll into the next pay-out, making one cycle look lighter and the next one heavier.
