KUMP

A transparent mining cooperative

Earn your share by hashing — never by buying.

Point a miner at the pod and every accepted share mints KUMP, weighted by proof-of-work. Your slice of the cooperative equals your slice of the work — no house edge, no buy-in, keys stay yours. The honest inverse of the "buy-a-block-lottery" scams, and the ownership a faceless mega-pool never gives you.

Not a money machine. A fairer, more sovereign, fully transparent way to mine together — for the ownership and clean sats, not a return.

The line that is the project: ❌ buy KUMP for a bigger jackpot share = gambling + a security — never. ✅ earn KUMP by hashpower = a mining-contribution token. Cross that line and KUMP becomes the very thing it was built to replace.

The honest numbers

This is not a money machine. Here's the real math.

  • Mining at ~$0.15/kWh is break-even at best. A Bitaxe (~1.2 TH/s, ~15W) earns ≈ $0.05/day on a pool — about what it costs in power.
  • Pooling doesn't beat that math — it smooths the variance (a steady small share instead of a lonely lottery). Same expected value, less luck.
  • A block pays 3.125 BTC (~$200k), but the network is ~800 EH/s — a small pod's odds are real but long. We'll publish the exact odds and never inflate them.
  • KUMP's own value is ~$0 until the co-op has traction. Earning it today is a bet on the future, not income. We'd rather say that than sell you a dream.
Want max sats-per-watt? Mine Ocean. Want a stake in something you help build? Mine KUMP. Choosing KUMP is a values choice — ownership, clean sats, community, fairness — not a profit calculation. We'll always tell you which game you're playing.

🛡️ We build in the right order. Prove the pool first; the tradeable token ships last — and only once securities counsel signs off. Discipline over hype — that's the difference.
