Episode notes
HashPool Uses eCash for Payouts
- HashPool uses eCash tokens to externalize mining shares into tradable digital bearer tokens.
- Miners receive tokens for shares which can be traded privately, decoupling payout timing from block discovery.
Preserve Privacy With Network Tools
- Miners should use Tor or VPN networks to preserve privacy when connecting to pools.
- Network anonymity complements eCash’s privacy by hiding IP addresses from mining pools and mints.
Trading and Valuing eHash Tokens
- eHash tokens represent mining shares and their value depends on pool hash rate and block rewards.
- Traders and miners can mutually price these tokens, balancing liquidity vs. payout risk and privacy benefits.
