What Uptime Really Means When You Buy Hashrate
Uptime decides how much of the hashrate you paid for actually arrives at your pool. Here is how to read it honestly.
Uptime is a promise about delivery. It tells you how much of the power you bought actually shows up at your pool and does useful work. A clean number here is the difference between a contract you trust and one you do not.
Measured at the pool, not the rack
The honest way to measure uptime is at your pool, against accepted hashrate. That is the work the pool acknowledges and pays for. Power that runs but never reaches the pool does you no good, so the only reading that counts is the one your pool sees, and it is the same data we bill on.
Why it is never exactly one hundred percent
Machines reboot. Networks hiccup. Pools have brief wobbles. A small amount of loss is normal across any large fleet, so the honest move is not to promise perfection but to bill only on what your pool actually accepts. The figure you can see is the figure you pay on, nothing to take on faith.
- Uptime is measured against accepted hashrate at your pool
- A small amount of loss is normal and honest
- You are billed only on what your pool accepts, reconcilable any time
How to keep yourself honest too
Watch your own pool dashboard. It is the neutral referee. If accepted hashrate tracks close to what you ordered, delivery is healthy. If it sags for long, ask questions. The portal shows the same delivery data we use, so there is one shared source of truth and no room for spin.
Trust grows from numbers you can both see. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.
