Mining-Dutch.

Mining-Dutch is a mining poolMining poolA group of miners who share the work of finding blocks and split the rewards, so each gets paid steadily instead of rarely. from the Netherlands, run by the company Mining-Dutch B.V. The pool says it has been live since 2014 and that the company was registered in 2017. In its own words, it began as a pool for mining with its own equipment and opened to the public once that worked. Today it mines more than a hundred coins, Bitcoin among them; the blocks on this page are only its Bitcoin blocks.

It is a small Bitcoin pool, finding a few blocks a year: by its own count, 32 from November 2020 to August 2026. Its Bitcoin miners also earn coins that can be mined with the same work, such as Namecoin and Fractal Bitcoin.

Miners choose how they are paid. With pay per share, or PPS, they get a set amount for every piece of work they send, including a share of the fees, whether or not the pool finds a block. With PPLNS or PROP they share the reward of each block the pool finds, by how much of the work they did. Solo miners keep the whole reward of a block they find themselves, less the pool’s fee. Either way, each Mining-Dutch block’s first transaction pays the whole reward to the pool, which pays each miner from there once their balance reaches an amount they choose. These are payments to the pool’s miners, separate from the transactions confirmed inside the block.
