BTC.com Pool username , watcher link and Access Key.

Sharing your pool username is necessary for Compass to configure your miner and to initiate hashing to your BTC.com Pool account. BTC.com Pool also has the ability to share watcher links which allows anybody with the link to view your pool account. While this is optional, it is useful for troubleshooting your machines as needed.

Here are the steps needed to locate your BTC.com username and watcher link:

1. Log into your BTC.com pool account from https://pool.btc.com/.
2. Click the 'Pool Dashboard' button at the top of the screen.
   • You may need to create a Sub-account.
3. Pool username can be see below the BTC.com logo in the top left.
   
4. Select 'Watcher Link' under the 'Settings' drop down menu.
5. Click on the '+ Create New Watcher' button.
6. Input a watcher name. Check 'Miners' and click the 'OK' button. We recommend 'compass' for simplicity.
7. The new watcher link will appear. Press the 'copy button' to copy the link.
8. On the left side, select 'API KEY'.
9. Click the 'Generate Access Key' button.
10. The Access Key will appear.
11. Highlight and copy the Key.

Stratum Server URL's can be located here. The most commonly used for BTC are as follows:

• stratum+tcp://us.ss.btc.com:1800

• stratum+tcp://us.ss.btc.com:443

• stratum+tcp://us.ss.btc.com:25

It is suggested that you select one of these as your primary and the remainder for backup stratum servers. If a server goes down the miner will automatically move to the backup stratum and mining will continue uninterrupted.
