Introduction
FCH  FreeCash
Homepage  Whitepaper  Explorer  Wallets  Exchanges
FreeCash (FCH) is an underlying framework upgrade based on Nakamoto's Bitcoin framework, aiming to solve the existing problems faced by BTC and BCH. FCH follows the POW consensus mechanism and the SHA256 mining algorithm. FCH will solve the governance loopholes in the Bitcoin system - the developer incentive problem. Therefore it will establish a governance fund, provide incentives for all important contributors like developers, and encourage experts in different fields to join the FCH ecosystem and build an effective governance mechanism dedicated to a decentralized community. With the aim of a freely evolving electronic cash system, FCH combines the advantages of BTC and BCH to explore a free and efficient governance mechanism for decentralized cryptocurrencies and build the cornerstone of crypto economy in future.

Payment Methods and Mining Modes
1. Choose a payment method in ViaBTC (What are PPS+, PPLNS and SOLO?)

2. "FCH Mining" and "Smart Mining" are available on ViaBTC, and the smart mining supports [One-click Switch]. 

Mining Setup
1. Stratum URL Configuration
FCH Mining :
stratum+tcp://fch.viabtc.com:3001
stratum+tcp://fch.viabtc.com:301

Smart Mining URL:
stratum+tcp://bitcoin.viabtc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://bitcoin.viabtc.com:25
stratum+tcp://bitcoin.viabtc.com:443

2. Create Worker
Create a worker in the form of "userID.workerID" and set any password for it. WorkerID should consist of numbers and lowercase letters within 64 characters.
E.g. If your user ID is viabtc, your worker name could be "viabtc.001". Password is optional.

3. Configure Mining
Take Antminer as an example here. Log in to your Antminer first, click “Miner Configuration” and enter details as required on the page. Click “Save & Apply” when you finish setup. To ensure stable mining, we recommend users to set multiple ports. When one of them fails to connect, the miner will be automatically switched to the next port and continue mining. 

Monitoring & Earnings
After the miner has been stabilized for around 10-15 mins , you can check operation status and profits via Workers and Earnings page. You can also download ViaPool to view the related data at any time.

Payout
Auto Withdrawal      (ZERO fee and unified payment everyday, recommended!)
Normal Transfer       (Transfer anytime but fee is required)
Inter-user Transfer   (ZERO confirmation and fee)
Transfer to CoinEx    (ZERO confirmation and fee)

Why do I need to set multiple ports?
We recommend user to set multiple ports to ensure stable and sustainable mining. Should one of them is inactive, the miner will switch to the next one automatically.

If my miner is disconnected, how to fix it?
The status will become active after the miner keep running for around 10 to 20 minutes.  
If the worker keeps producing invalid shares, please check your settings on the dashboard.
If the issue remains unresolved after checking, feel free to send us a ticket.
