ZecWec merged mining · Equihash 200,9
Mine Zcash.
Earn Wcash too.
One ASIC connection searches one Equihash space for two independent chains. Zcash is the parent. Wcash is merged-mined through AuxPoW v2. Your hardware keeps doing ordinary Zcash work.

Algorithm: Equihash 200,9 · ASICs use port 3336. GPU and CPU software uses low-difficulty port 3338.
Legacy direct Wolf: port 3333 does not use Pool accounts, PPLNS accounting, or Pool payouts. Account miners must use port 3336 or 3338.
One worker, two destinations
Create an account, save a Wcash Unified Address and a Zcash address, then create a worker. Both destinations are bound to that account; every worker under the account contributes to both chain balances.
- Create or sign in to your pool account.
- Add the two payout destinations in Settings.
- Create a worker and copy the exact mining username.
- Use port 3336 for ASICs or 3338 for GPU / CPU miners, with password x.

DOCUMENTATION
How ZecWec works
One search, two targets
The pool builds an ordinary Zcash Equihash job carrying a Wcash commitment. Every share is checked independently against both network targets. Mining Wcash does not reduce Zcash hashrate or block odds.
PPLNS accounting
Accepted work enters the rolling PPLNS window. When the pool finds a block, that chain’s reward is allocated from the work selected by its policy. ZEC and WEC balances mature independently.
Zero pool fee
The service fee is 0% for both assets. A bounded network transaction fee can be deducted from a payout; unused fee reserve is returned to the miner balance.
Shielded WEC payouts
Wcash coinbase funds mature before settlement. Automatic WEC payouts use Ironwood shielded transactions after the account threshold is reached. The public feed shows the transaction ID without exposing recipients or amounts.
ZEC settlement
Zcash rewards are tracked independently with the configured ZEC destination. ZEC automatic signing is currently paused; earned ZEC remains recorded for manual settlement when a Zcash block is found.
Account safety
The pool never asks for seed phrases or private keys. Portal credentials protect payout settings. ASICs use the public worker name and the ignored password x.
FOR AI AGENTS AND AUTOMATION
Machine-readable mining quick start
This is the complete connection contract. An agent can create the account through the portal, save both destinations, create a worker, and configure an Equihash ASIC without handling wallet keys.

MINER ACCOUNT
Create account. Add two addresses. Mine.
No email confirmation and no wallet connection. After signing in, add a shielded Wcash Unified Address and your chosen Zcash payout address, then create the worker login used by the ASIC.
