Our miner is ~3× faster than what the other pools ship, and we charge the lowest fee on the network — 5% PPLNS / 5% solo, vs the 20% charged by other Pearl pools. Works on every NVIDIA card with tensor cores — RTX 30/40/50, Hopper, datacenter Ampere/Ada/Blackwell. Operated by AlphaPool, the team behind Quai, XMR, Zano, and DOGE pools.

Three commands. ~30 seconds. No signup, no whitelist, no KYC.
Install the Pearl wallet and generate an address starting with prl1p…. Save your seed phrase offline. This is where your payouts go.
One curl + one ./alpha-miner command. Linux x86_64, NVIDIA Ampere or newer (RTX 30/40/50, A100, L4/L40, H100, B100). Auto-detects all your GPUs.
First share in ~10 seconds. PPLNS payouts every 6 hours, 1.0 PRL minimum. Track live on the Dashboard by pasting your address.
Two pool endpoints:
pearl.alphapool.tech:5566 — pooled (PPLNS), smooth payouts, 5% pool fee. Right for <100 GH/s.
pearl.alphapool.tech:5567 — solo, you get the entire block reward (minus 5% solo fee) when you find one. Big rigs that want lottery dynamics.
# 1) Download the miner (~36 MB, Linux x86_64, Ampere/Ada/Blackwell/Hopper) curl -L -o alpha-miner https://pearl.alphapool.tech/downloads/alpha-miner chmod +x alpha-miner # 2) Replace YOUR_PRL_ADDRESS with your prl1p... wallet address, then run ./alpha-miner \ --pool stratum+tcp://pearl.alphapool.tech:5566 \ --address prl1pYOUR_PRL_ADDRESS \ --worker rig01
Pre-Volta cards (Pascal GTX 10-series and older) lack the tensor cores Pearl's NoisyGEMM PoW needs. CPU mining is not supported. Need help? Hit our Discord — real humans.
Quick answers about Pearl mining and the AlphaPool setup.
Pearl (PRL) is a Layer-1 blockchain that uses Proof-of-Useful-Work — mining is performed as a by-product of arbitrary matrix multiplication. The protocol is open-source under the ISC license at github.com/pearl-research-labs/pearl. Mainnet launched 2026-04-27.
Any NVIDIA card with tensor cores: Volta (V100, Titan V), Turing (RTX 20-series, T4, CMP 30HX/90HX), Ampere (RTX 30-series, A100, CMP 170HX), Ada (RTX 40-series, L4/L40), Blackwell (RTX 50-series, B100), and Hopper (H100/H200). The miner uses ~2-3 GB of VRAM. Pre-Volta (Pascal GTX 10-series and older) lacks tensor cores and is unsupported. CPU mining is not supported.
5% on pooled (PPLNS), 5% on solo. That's the lowest fee on the Pearl network — other pools charge up to 20%, so you keep an extra 15% of every block reward by mining here. Same fee on solo so big rigs choosing solo aren't penalized. Fees subsidize operating cost (US East server, 24/7 ops); any surplus goes to upstream protocol development.
When the pool finds a block, the reward is split across the last N accepted shares in proportion to who submitted them. This smooths out luck variance without exposing the pool operator to bad-luck risk.
1.0 PRL. Payouts run every 6 hours; balances below the floor roll over until cleared.
First share usually arrives within 10 seconds of starting your miner. First payout typically lands within 24–48 hours of starting if you have meaningful hashrate. Smaller miners may take longer to accumulate the 1.0 PRL minimum.
The pool is brand-new (we launched 2026-05-14). Hashrate displays go live once we have enough share data to compute a stable estimate — usually within the first hour after launch.
The pool server is internal for now. The Pearl protocol itself is fully open-source. The integration spec for connecting a custom miner will be published once stable.
