Why easyBTX
What easyBTX is: a one-click, self-custodial BTX miner for Mac and Windows. Your keys, your machine, your coins.
One app, one click
easyBTX is dead simple on Mac and Windows. Download it, open it, press Start, and it mines. It sets itself up for you, with no accounts and no sign-up.
Self-custody by default
Rewards always land in a wallet you control, on Mac and on Windows. easyBTX never asks you to send it funds, and there is no custodian in the middle. Your keys, your machine, your coins.
GPU-accelerated
On M-series Macs, easyBTX mines with Metal. On Windows it uses your NVIDIA GPU with CUDA (RTX 30-series or newer). Solid performance on either, with no extra setup.
Solo or pool
On Mac you choose: mine solo to your own node, or join a pool, and you can switch. On Windows easyBTX mines in the pool.
A real BTX node on Mac
On Mac, easyBTX runs the official btxd node locally and verifies the release it downloads, so you are running the actual network, not a thin client. On Windows it runs the GPU pool miner and connects to the BTX pool instead.
Quantum-resistant BTX
BTX is a quantum-resistant fork of Bitcoin. easyBTX is the simple way to mine it from a Mac or a Windows PC.
Honest by design
BTX has no public market today, and easyBTX makes no promises about earnings. It is a friendly way to run a node and mine, not an investment.
