Download the Miner and Start Earning Entries

Two downloads live here: the free miner bot that earns your entries, and Kraken Scout, the console that works Kraken's funded challenge end to end. Scout is a paid product — you download it free, then unlock it with XMRJ or with Monero inside the app.

Two downloads — pick one

The miner on its own

A one-click Windows script: it fetches xmrig 6.26.0 from the official GitHub release, checks its SHA256, writes the pool config and starts mining.

Download the miner (.bat)

This copy mines under a placeholder wallet, so nothing is credited to you. Sign in and download the miner from your dashboard to mine under your own wallet.

Kraken Scout

Scout automates Kraken's funded challenge — entry checks, execution, exits and the proof trail — against Kraken's own published rules. It is the paid product this site is built around. Activation costs 0.01 XMR for 30 days, or an XMRJ unlock.

Download KrakenScoutBundle.zip Unlock Scout Pro

Downloading the bundle is free and separate from paying: connect a wallet, unlock in the dashboard, and Scout runs for the cycle.

Where the money goes

XMRJ unlocks settle through the XMRJ treasury. Every conversion is split in basis points between the treasury reserve and the jackpot, and the treasury's own funder account is the only path by which XMR reaches the pot — that split is what funds the daily jackpot.

What you get

  • The mining bot — Connects to the pool and submits shares. Each 100 accepted shares is one entry in the open drawing.
  • Kraken Scout console — The trading console the team built around Kraken's funded challenge.
  • The pool view — Your shares, your entries and the size of the current pot, refreshed as the pool accepts work.

Verify the file before you run it

The checksum published next to the download is the same one the dashboard shows. After downloading, compute the SHA256 of the file and compare it with the hash above:

certutil -hashfile KrakenScoutBundle.zip SHA256   # Windows
shasum -a 256 KrakenScoutBundle.zip               # macOS / Linux

If the two do not match, do not run the file — delete it and download it again. The same manifest, including the size and build time, is published at /api/downloads/bundle-info.

Where you are mining from

This request came from US. The relay is in Los Angeles, California. You are in the relay's own region, so expect the lowest handshake latency.

The country comes from the header the CDN already attaches to your request. Nothing about your visit is stored.

What the miner can and cannot do

It sends hashpower to the pool, one way. It never asks for wallet keys, cannot move funds, and does not need a deposit or a wallet address before it starts working. A wallet is only involved when you claim a prize.

The bundle's mining bot is on unless you clear the single opt-out checkbox during setup. Nothing mines after you uncheck it, and closing the miner stops it immediately.

Before you start

  • Mining needs no account and no deposit.
  • Claiming a prize does: log in, connect a Monero wallet, claim within seven days.
  • Entries are counted per drawing, so joining before a round closes still counts for that round.

The four-steps page and the winners page are in English only for now.

If it does not start

  • Unzip the bundle first; the launcher expects its files beside it.
  • Allow the miner outbound access in your firewall so it can reach the pool.
  • Check the dashboard — shares appear once the pool accepts them, which can trail your miner slightly.
