The Basics
Bitcoin mining pools are made up of groups of miners who combine their computing power to generate more consistent rewards. Instead of mining alone, in pools, users receive payouts based on the hashrate they contribute to the pool.
When a pool finds a block, the reward is split among members. Payouts depend on your share of the work and the pool's payment model, such as PPS or PPLNS. Most pools charge 1 to 2.5% in fees.
The best Bitcoin pool mining option depends on your goals. Key factors to consider:
Always set up a backup pool to avoid downtime if your main pool goes offline.
Mining pools fall into a few categories based on access and payout structure:

FAQ
As of the latest 7-day data, the largest Bitcoin mining pool is Foundry USA at 26.0% of network hashrate, followed by AntPool at 20.0%. Rankings shift over time, so the live table above always reflects the current distribution.
It is estimated from the share of blocks each pool mines over a recent window. A pool that mines more blocks accounts for a larger share of total network hashrate.
Returns depend on the pool fee, the payout model (PPS, PPLNS, or FPPS), and your latency to the pool servers, not just the size of the pool.
Daily shares move with block luck, so short-term numbers fluctuate. The underlying order changes over weeks as hashrate migrates between pools.
