Nockchain is a Layer-1 blockchain with an unusual twist: it's a ZK-Proof-of-Work chain built around the Nock virtual machine. Instead of just "burning hashes," every block carries a STARK proof of a real computation — so mining NOCK produces verifiable compute, not discarded work. It was fair-launched in May 2025 with no premine and no VC/team allocation (100% to miners), and is hard-capped at 2³² NOCK. The network is mature and NOCK is already traded.

We won't sell you a dream. Nockchain isn't a project from yesterday — mainnet has run since May 2025, the network is mature, and NOCK is already valued and traded. So no, this isn't a "day one, ridiculous difficulty to scoop up" situation.
So why feature it now? Because of the tooling we put in the manager.
The thing that changes the game is the miner + pool combo wired into the manager:
- Miner: a recent CUDA GPU miner
- Pool: nockhash.xyz —
stratum+ssl://mine.nockhash.xyz:3333
The key point: Nockchain's official miner is CPU-only. By default, most people mine NOCK on their processor. This puts a real GPU solution in your hands — and on this kind of proof-of-work, a GPU vastly outpaces a CPU in proof rate.
In our own tests on the farm, this miner+pool combo produced noticeably more proofpower than the other GPU setups we tried. As a rough order of magnitude: on our rigs, a single RTX 4090 runs around ~207 proofs/s on the nock algorithm. That obviously depends on your card, your drivers and your tuning — but the ballpark holds.
nockhash.xyz is PPLNS, paid per share: paste your address, run the miner, and accepted shares go straight to your address every block. No account to create, no KYC, no drawn-out withdrawal threshold — just your wallet. And the miner reconnects on its own if it drops.
(Several competing pools require an account, identity verification to withdraw, withdrawal fees and a minimum payout. Here, none of that.)
NOCK_MANAGER automates everything:
- 🎯 Set your mining address — generate or paste it (use the wallet's Address, not the
zpubExtended Public Key) - ⛏️ Start pool mining — pick your GPUs and go; it downloads the miner, configures the nockhash.xyz pool, and manages the screen session and logs
- 🔁 Keep-alive — auto-reconnect so your rig doesn't stall
- 🌍 Multilingual — English, Français, Español, Русский
Watch your hashrate live with:
screen -r nockpool- A recent NVIDIA GPU with CUDA — GPU mining is the whole point here
- Linux (tested on Ubuntu 24.04)
- A Nockchain wallet address — the tool helps you generate one

This is an unofficial, community-made tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by Nockchain or Zorp. It is a binary utility that automates downloading and running third-party mining software on your machine — review it and your setup before use. Mining stays speculative: performance depends on your hardware and drivers, and profitability depends on the NOCK price, network difficulty and your electricity cost. We give you the most effective tool we've tested — not a promise of gains. Do your own math. Use at your own risk, and check the official Nockchain project and your local regulations.
