About the project

Bitcoin mining should be understandable.

BTC Lottery Miner is a free educational Bitcoin mining experience. It lets a normal PC try real proof-of-work while teaching the ideas behind blocks, nonces, hashes, targets, difficulty, pools, and halvings.

Why it exists

Many Bitcoin explanations stay abstract. Many mining tools assume the user already understands pools, workers, shares, difficulty, and block templates. This site sits between those worlds: it is practical enough to do real proof-of-work, but designed slowly enough for a beginner.

The goal is not to convince anyone that CPU mining is profitable. The goal is to make mining tangible, honest, and easy to explore.

What the app includes

Live minerReal pool work

Connect to a solo mining pool and watch CPU proof-of-work in real time.

LearnBeginner path

Walk through Bitcoin mining from zero, with interactive nonce and halving examples.

Time MachineHistorical replay

Mine old Bitcoin blocks at your CPU's pace or quick replay mode to see a win.

Important honesty

A normal PC has astronomically small odds of finding a current Bitcoin block. If you run the live miner, treat it as a learning experience and lottery experiment. Use sensible CPU intensity and stop if your computer gets too hot or uncomfortable to use.
