How many days until the pool pays out
Direct answer: days to first payout = pool threshold / your daily BTC income, where daily income = (your hashrate / network hashrate) × 144 blocks × 3.125 BTC. Enter your hashrate and every pool below recalculates. Thresholds verified against official pool documentation on 2026-08-10.
Your income before pool fee: - BTC/day
| Pool | Min payout, BTC | Days to first payout |
|---|
The estimate ignores the pool fee (the real wait is slightly longer), PPLNS "luck", and difficulty changes while you accumulate. Binance Pool is absent from the table: it credits earnings daily to an internal wallet with no published threshold. Foundry USA's threshold drops to 2730 sat on the last day of each month.
Takeaway: at low hashrate the payout threshold matters more than the fee. Size-by-size recommendations are in the guide which pool fits your hashrate; full profitability math is in the calculator. Thresholds: official pool documentation, verified 2026-08-10 - terms change, verify with the pool.
