How to Mine Qubitcoin (QTC)? Complete Beginner’s Guide

How to Mine QubitCoin (QTC) on HeroMiners — GPU Mining the First Quantum Proof-of-Work Coin

HeroMiners is now mining **QubitCoin (QTC). This guide walks you through everything you need to start GPU-mining QTC with SRBMiner in a few minutes — what [QubitCoin](https://qubitcoin.herominers.com)** is, why its quantum Proof-of-Work is different, and the exact steps to point your rig at the pool.

What is QubitCoin (QTC)?

**QubitCoin* is a Layer-1 cryptocurrency built on a Bitcoin Core foundation but secured by a brand-new consensus mechanism: qPoW (quantum Proof-of-Work). Instead of repeating a classical hash like SHA-256, QubitCoin’s proof-of-work — called qhash — is a real quantum-circuit simulation: each block header is run through a 16-qubit, 65,536-amplitude statevector circuit (rotation gates + entangling CNOTs), and the resulting state expectation becomes the block hash. The qhash is* the block hash.

In practice this means:

• It’s a GPU-mined coin — the qhash circuit maps naturally to GPU parallelism.
• It is ASIC-resistant by design — the work is a quantum-state simulation, not a fixed hash pipeline.
• It inherits Bitcoin’s battle-tested chain mechanics: standard block structure, coinbase maturity, and Bitcoin-style addresses.

Why mine QubitCoin on HeroMiners?

• ⚡ 0% pool fee — keep more of what you mine. (To celebrate the launch, we are offering 0% pool fees until August 1, 2026.)
• 🔒 Every share is natively verified. The pool re-computes each submitted qhash bit-for-bit in native code before crediting it — no trust-based shortcuts, so your hashrate and payouts are fair and accurate.
• 🌍 Worldwide low-latency servers — Europe, North & South America, and Asia-Pacific.
• 💸 PROP (proportional) rewards with a low 0.1 QTC minimum payout.
• 🟢 Pool + Solo mining supported.
• 🔐 TLS on every port — plain TCP and SSL are auto-detected on the same port, no separate SSL port needed.
• 📊 Real-time dashboard, per-worker stats, and configurable fixed difficulty.

What you need

1. A GPU (NVIDIA or AMD) and the latest GPU drivers.
2. SRBMiner-MULTI (latest version with QubitCoin / qHash support).
3. A QubitCoin wallet address to receive payouts.

Step 1 — Get a QubitCoin address

Use any [QubitCoin ](http://PropertyValueCoin / TickerQubitCoin / QTCConsensusqPoW (quantum Proof-of-Work)Algorithmqhash (qubitcoin in SRBMiner)BaseBitcoin Core forkBlock time~10 minutesAddress formatsbech32 bc1q… (recommended), 1…, 3…, bc1p…Block explorerexplorer.superquantum.io)wallet (the QubitCoin Core wallet or a supported exchange/wallet that lists QTC) and generate a receive address. A bech32 bc1q… address is recommended. This address is both your login and your payout destination — the pool pays you directly to it.

Step 2 — Download SRBMiner

Download the latest **SRBMiner-MULTI** release from the official SRBMiner GitHub and extract it. SRBMiner runs on Windows and Linux and supports the qubitcoin algorithm. (SRBMiner charges its own small dev fee — that is the miner's fee, not the pool's.)

Step 3 — Configure and start mining

Point SRBMiner at the pool with the qubitcoin algorithm and your QTC address.

Windows — create a mine-qtc.bat next to SRBMiner-MULTI.exe

• Worker / rig name: set it with --password RigName (or as YOUR_QTC_ADDRESS.RigName) so you can tell your rigs apart on the dashboard.
• Encrypted connection (TLS): add --tls true — the pool auto-detects TLS on the same port 1195.
• Fixed difficulty (optional): append =DIFF to your wallet, e.g. --wallet YOUR_QTC_ADDRESS=50000. Otherwise the pool's VarDiff auto-tunes your difficulty (it starts at 32 and adjusts to your hashrate).

That’s it — once shares start landing you’ll see your worker on the pool dashboard within a minute.

Solo mining

Prefer solo? You keep the full block reward when your rig finds a block. Add the solo prefix to your wallet in the miner config (solo:YOUR_QTC_WALLET_ADDRESS) and point at the same server/port. Solo suits large hashrate; for steady payouts, stick with pool mining.

Payments

• Reward system: PROP (proportional) — you’re paid for the shares you contribute to each round.
• Pool fee: 0%.
• Minimum payout: 0.1 QTC (configurable per-miner in your dashboard).
• Block maturity: found blocks mature after ~100 confirmations (Bitcoin-style coinbase maturity) before they’re paid out.

Track your miner

Open https://qubitcoin.herominers.com, paste your QTC address, and you'll see live hashrate, per-worker stats, your shares, found blocks, balance, and payment history. Verify on-chain at **https://explorer.superquantum.io**

FAQ

Is QubitCoin CPU or GPU mined? GPU. The qhash quantum-circuit simulation is designed for GPU parallelism.

Which miner do I use? SRBMiner-MULTI with --algorithm qubitcoin.

Do I need a special SSL port? No. Plain TCP and TLS share port 1195; add --tls true to encrypt.

When do I get paid? Once your balance reaches 0.1 QTC and the blocks you contributed to have matured (~100 confirmations).

Is it really 0% fee? Yes — check the current rate on the pool homepage before you start.
