Whalesburg is a One-Stop Solution for Cryptocurrency Miners

Dear Whalesburg Community!

A lot of questions have appeared lately asking what the difference is between Whalesburg and other well-known players in the space like NiceHash, ethOS, and Mining Pool Hub. The simple answer is that while other players each focus on a single aspect of miner’s needs, Whalesburg offers a one-stop solution for all of the complex needs today’s miners face.
In the diagram below, each of the five leaves represents one component of what it takes for miner’s to be the most successful:



Whalesburg — at the center — gives miners, for the first time, all five of these essential tools in one package that brings security, exceptional user experience, and out-of-the-box scalability for enterprise level miners.
Let’s go through each of the five leaves and compare how Whalesburg stacks up to the competition:

1. Operating System
Two popular providers in this space are nvOC and ethOS. Both of them force all users to be Linux experts — lack of graphic interface without the functionality for large-scale operations. Whalesburg has a clear edge over the competition with a next generation OS that has the following advantages:

⛏ Real-time integration with Whalesburg cloud.
⛏ Large-scale and remote monitoring, managing, and rebooting of your rigs.
This is a must for a farm bigger than ten units. Whalesburg will let you babysit your hardware, even from the beach.
⛏ Detailed financial reports builder.
We consider miners as investors; you invest in hardware, you calculate returns, you expect profits. Whalesburg OS will have a module for professional financial reporting, allowing you to include exactly the data you want.
⛏ Remotely edit the configuration.
With comprehensive cloud functionality, Whalesburg lets you edit configuration without your physical presence.
⛏ Notifications.
The very first step in troubleshooting is to know that the problem has occured. For miners this should be a must in every software solution, but sadly it’s not. Whalesburg is going to set a new standard by sending you notifications in case of failures or for predefined events.

2. Whalesburg Mining Pool
The volatility of cryptocurrency markets and high costs of setup are the main reasons miners join pools. While today’s mining pools traditionally focus on a single coin, Whalesburg will constantly integrate multiple coins from multiple algorithms. Today it has three Proof-Of-Work cryptocurrencies based on EtHash algoritm — Ellaism, Pirl, and Expanse. This has the effect of increasing stability of mining.

For example last month mining PIRL — a relatively new coin — was up to 14% more profitable than mining Ethereum. Miners should follow the news to use such possibilities while Whalesburg lets you do it automatically.



In addition, Whalesburg Payouts Manager will offer the convenient option of automatically converting mined cryptocurrency to fiat currency or BTC. The current version of Whalesburg MVP converts all the mined coins into ETH.

3. Monitoring Tool
By storing all the statistics about your hardware in the cloud in real-time, Whalesburg will enable a huge range of features including one-click large-scale overclocking, troubleshooting, push notifications, income reporting, and forecasting.

4. Profit-Switching Solution
Whalesburg has a profit switching algorithm that automatically protects you from price drops. It analyzes every coin’s parameters to see the profitability reports tailored to your hardware setup. The decision is then made to instantly switch your hash rate, automatically!

Whalesburg’s Profit-Switching Solution Advantages Are:

⛏ Transparent pool shares and fees, stored in a blockchain.
⛏ Financial reports using real-time data.
⛏ Better technology
Whalesburg is coded using Go and Ruby languages. This grants more security and stability.
⛏ Smart profit-switching.
Whalesburg OS and Whalesburg Smart Pool together will detect the most profitable algorithm and coin depending on your hardware.
⛏ Simple setup.

Whalesburg’s Profit Switching Solution is NOT a Crypto-Mining Marketplace

Beginner miners think of NiceHash as a mining pool with profit-switching algorithms. It is not. Regarding the profits, any other mining pool is much more profitable for miners to use than NiceNash. Since Whalesburg is a multicurrency mining pool with profit switching solution — it’s miners will receive significantly more profits than with NiceHash. This is because buyers of hash rate have to make some profits when they buy your hash rate, so when you use NiceHash you receive less profit than you could be.

Whalesburg’s Overclocking Tools Advantages Are:

⛏ Whalesburg is a database of configuration setups.
It includes firmwares, driver versions for your setup, feedbacks of other miners, and recommendations.
⛏ Remote large-scale overclocking.
⛏ Linux GUI.
There is no graphical interface for such operations by any player in the space thus far.
⛏ Remote one-click configuration.
⛏ Whalesburg will be a monitoring platform.
All the other monitoring solutions cost additional money depending on your rig numbers. There are SaaS or Windows programs but they offer only a limited amount of supported devices.

Summary of Whalesburg’s Key Advantages:

⛏ User-friendly graphical interface on Linux.
⛏ Uses Whalesburg cloud to store statistics.
⛏ Does not waste time switching between pools; uses one entry point all the time.
⛏ Enterprise-ready solution; has no limits to hardware numbers.
⛏ Forget about manual setup! Whalesburg detects hardware automatically.
