Devfee for firmware on RuPool's sha256 stratum
Point your ASIC firmware or mining OS devfee to RuPool's sha256 stratum: a low starting difficulty for instant short-session starts, SSL/TCP ports, a fair floating fee, and full stats in the client dashboard — no hidden conditions.
1024
Low diff 1024 + vardiff
Low diff 1024 + vardiff
A starting difficulty of 1024 with automatic vardiff lets devfee workers submit shares right away — essential for short, periodic devfee sessions where there's no time for a slow connection warm-up.
SSL and TCP ports
Connect over plain TCP or an encrypted SSL/TLS stratum port — pick whichever fits your firmware or mining OS integration best, no extra infrastructure required on your side.
Payouts and stats in one dashboard
Devfee hashrate is tracked in the same dashboard and paid out to the same wallet addresses as regular pool clients — no separate registration or integration, it's all visible in the standard worker stats.
Uptime and failover
Redundant stratum nodes with automatic failover keep the pool stable even if individual nodes go down — critical when a devfee connection switches automatically and can't afford to drop.
Fair floating fee
The pool fee for devfee hashrate is the same floating rate applied to every other miner — no hidden markups or special terms for partners.
Connection endpoints
Use these addresses in your firmware or mining OS devfee settings — TCP for a simple integration, SSL/TLS for an encrypted connection.
| Host | enter.rupool.pro |
| TCP port | enter.rupool.pro:4444 |
| SSL port | enter.rupool.pro:4443SSL |

Geo-distributed stratum
enter.rupool.pro is a single entry point that automatically routes your devfee connection to the nearest available location. Besides the single entry point, direct regional endpoints are also available for each location.
Connect devfee in 4 steps
Integrating devfee with RuPool takes a few minutes and requires no separate API — it uses the same stratum protocol as regular miners.
- Step 1
Sign up and create a sha256-coin subaccount
Create a RuPool account if you don't already have one
Create a subaccount with a sha256 stratum coin in your dashboard — payouts for your devfee hashrate will go there
- Step 2
Point your firmware's devfee settings to the pool address
TCP: enter.rupool.pro:4444
SSL: enter.rupool.pro:4443
- Step 3
Set the worker login and password
Login: <your_subaccount>.<worker_name>, e.g. mysubaccount.devfee1
Password: any value, e.g. x — the pool doesn't validate it
- Step 4
Check hashrate and payouts
Within a few minutes the devfee worker will appear in the "Workers" section of the dashboard
Hashrate and payouts are tracked the same way as for a regular worker — no separate integration is needed
Frequently asked questions
Devfee is a small share of hashrate that many ASIC firmwares and mining OS periodically send to the developer as a fee for using the product. This page is for firmware and mining OS developers who want to point their devfee hashrate to RuPool's sha256 stratum.
No. Devfee hashrate is tracked as a regular worker on its own subaccount and is distributed using the same FPPS scheme as all other hashrate on the pool — it doesn't take a share away from other miners' payouts.
Devfee sessions are typically short and periodic — the firmware connects for a few minutes, then switches back to the main pool. A low starting difficulty with automatic vardiff lets the devfee worker submit shares right away instead of losing time on connection warm-up.
The SSL/TLS port enter.rupool.pro:4443 uses standard stratum connection encryption and is supported by most modern ASIC firmwares and mining OS. If your firmware doesn't support SSL, use the plain TCP port enter.rupool.pro:4444 instead — it's just as reliable, only without channel encryption.
