## Status

In September 2024 BTC.com pool was renamed CloverPool, with a new website at cloverpool.com; the btc.com domain and its old mining addresses stopped working on 31 October 2024.

## What is CloverPool

CloverPool, formerly BTC.com pool, is a multi-coin mining pool for Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin with merged-mined coins such as Dogecoin, and other proof-of-work coins. The BTC.com team started in 2015 and opened the pool in 2016. The pool says it introduced the FPPS payout method.

## Coins, payout schemes and fees

| Coin | Payout scheme | Pool fee | Minimum payout |
|---|---|---|---|
| BTC | FPPS | 4% (base fee) | 0.005 BTC (can be raised to 0.01, 0.1 or 1 BTC) |
| BCH | FPPS | 4% (base fee) | 0.0000546 BCH |
| LTC | FPPS | 2% (base fee) | 0.001 LTC |
| DOGE | PPS | 2% (base fee) | 1 DOGE |
| FB | PPLNS | 1% (base fee) | 0.1 FB |
| ETC | PPLNS | 1% (base fee); mining service ends 20 November 2026 | 0.1 ETC |

## Payouts

| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Payout schedule | Earnings for the previous day are settled at 00:00 UTC and paid out within about two hours. |
| Payout scheme explained | FPPS adds an estimated transaction-fee share to the block reward and pays the total per share; the pool says its team created this method. |
| Merged mining | Merged mining is offered alongside Litecoin (see the fee table for coins such as BELLS, PEP and LKY); ELA merged mining ends on 5 November 2026. |

## Connecting

| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Server regions | US, EU and Southeast Asia stratum servers for BTC. |
| Protocol | Stratum over TCP (port 1800; backup ports 443 and 3333). |
| Account needed | Yes; miners connect through a sub-account in a registered CloverPool account and add a payout address to it. |

## Security and transparency

- Optional two-factor authentication with a six-digit code from an authenticator app; it is off by default.
- Watcher links share a sub-account's hashrate and earnings without allowing changes.
- The pool says it separates data reading from writing and uses Cloudflare for DDoS protection.

## History

| Date | Event |
|---|---|
| 2016 | The BTC.com team, active since 2015, opens the BTC.com mining pool. |
| September 2024 | BTC.com pool is renamed CloverPool, with a new website at cloverpool.com. |
| 31 October 2024 | The btc.com domain stops working, and miners must switch to the new CloverPool mining addresses. |
| 12 August 2026 | CloverPool closes its blockchain explorer to focus on the mining pool. |
| 12 October 2026 | CloverPool stops its Kaspa (KAS) mining service. |

## Risks and caveats

- The listed fee is a base fee; the pool says the actual fee is shown in each account's earnings bill.
- CloverPool has closed several coins on short notice (KAS, ZIL, CRC, DOGM, BONC, TRMP; ETC and ELA in November 2026). For some coins, balances without a payout address by the deadline were treated as forfeited.
- Mining addresses on the old btc.com domain no longer work.

Votes are anonymous and carry no text. Each device has one vote per item; press the same button again to remove it. Cloudflare Turnstile checks that a person is voting. We keep a random device ID in a cookie and a salted hash of the IP address to limit abuse — no names, no accounts. Votes are visitors’ opinions, not investment advice.
