# PrimeTriad > Independent permissionless Fractal Bitcoin (FB) Hybrid PPS+ mining pool, PrimeIndexer staking, merged BTC+FB mining (Beta), and self-hosted index mining infrastructure. ## What is PrimeTriad? PrimeTriad is an independent, operator-run Fractal Bitcoin platform that runs: - A **permissionless Hybrid PPS+ Stratum mining pool** (main product) at `pool.primetriad.com:3334` (Europe: `eu.pool.primetriad.com:3334`, Singapore: `sg.pool.primetriad.com:3334`) — open to all Stratum miners (ASICs, Zyber/Bitaxe, and other FB-capable hardware) - **Merged mining (Beta)** — PROP-N AuxPoW BTC+FB on ports `3340–3342` (same hosts as Hybrid PPS+) - **PrimeIndexer staking** — stake / unstake / claim FIP-101 rewards at https://primetriad.com/staking - **Index mining** infrastructure (full node, indexer, proof publishing) - A public live pool dashboard at https://pool.primetriad.com Miners connect with no account, no KYC, and no Lightning. Payouts are **on-chain FB**. ## Mining pool (for miners) - **Stratum URL (global):** `stratum+tcp://pool.primetriad.com:3334` - **Stratum URL (Europe):** `stratum+tcp://eu.pool.primetriad.com:3334` — lower latency for EU miners; same ports `3335` (Zyber/Bitaxe / sub-TH) / `3334` (Zyber 8G / 12G / mid-size) / `3336` - **Stratum URL (Singapore):** `stratum+tcp://sg.pool.primetriad.com:3334` — lower latency for APAC miners; same ports `3335` (Zyber/Bitaxe / sub-TH) / `3334` (Zyber 8G / 12G / mid-size) / `3336` - **Username:** your Fractal Bitcoin address (optional `.ZyberBlanc` worker suffix; bigger box `.zyber12g`) - **Password:** `x` (vardiff auto-adjusts) or `d=32` for a per-worker difficulty floor - **Dashboard:** https://pool.primetriad.com - **Status / SLA:** https://pool.primetriad.com/status.html - **Proof log:** https://pool.primetriad.com/proof.html - **Website:** https://primetriad.com ### Reward model — Hybrid PPS+ (main product) 1. **PPS+ credits:** each accepted share earns FB from `diff / networkDiff × reward` after a **1.5%** fee 2. **Block finder:** **2 FB** paid in the coinbase (jackpot) 3. **Buffer:** matured block remainder funds the PPS+ risk book 4. **Payouts:** on-chain FB; minimum **0.1 FB**, every **6h** ## Merged mining (Beta) - Separate product from Hybrid PPS+. One ASIC hash, Bitcoin + Fractal AuxPoW. - **Ports:** `3340` (Zyber/Bitaxe / small), `3341` (default), `3342` (high / rental) on `pool.primetriad.com`, `eu.pool.primetriad.com`, and `sg.pool.primetriad.com` - **Username:** Bitcoin address (optional `.ZyberBlanc`; bigger box `.zyber12g`) - **Password:** Fractal Bitcoin address (not `x`) - **Model:** PROP-N when a block is found — not per-share Hybrid PPS+ - **Finder:** 1 BTC on a Bitcoin find, 2 FB on a Fractal find; **1.5%** fee - **Dashboard:** https://pool.primetriad.com/merge.html ## Index staking (PrimeIndexer) - **Dashboard:** https://primetriad.com/staking - **Actions:** stake FB, unstake, claim allocated rewards - **Wallet:** UniSat (Fractal) - **Landing showcase:** https://primetriad.com/#pillars (Index Mining card / #index-staking) ## Compound mining (FIP-104) - **Minimum Binding:** 1 FB - **How-to:** https://primetriad.com/#compound - **Bind:** stake ≥ 1 FB to PrimeIndexer at https://primetriad.com/staking with the same FB address used as Stratum username - **Link:** on https://pool.primetriad.com look up the miner, connect UniSat, enable “Pay PPS to stake address” - Binding without that link still pays the mining address. Merged mining (3340–3342) does not compound. ## Keywords / topics Fractal Bitcoin mining pool, FB Hybrid PPS+, permissionless Stratum pool, ASIC mining, on-chain FB payouts, merged mining PROP-N, Fractal Bitcoin index mining, PrimeIndexer staking, FIP-101, PrimeTriad, independent FB pool. ## Contact - Site: https://primetriad.com - Staking: https://primetriad.com/staking - Pool: https://pool.primetriad.com - X: https://x.com/PrimeTriad - Telegram (community — The Lonely Bit / Fractal miners): https://t.me/fractalbits - Contact: https://x.com/PrimeTriad (Telegram = community, not support)
