Thank you for your assistance!

I ran my batch file with the BC1 address and it looks like it connected. It says "Pool message: Authorised, welcome to ckpool.org bc1xxxxxxxxxxx"

Since it says authorized and not rejected, I'm assuming its a valid address for ckpool and that ckpool can accept segwit wallet addresses for payout?

I don't see any errors, so i would assume so, yes.

I'm not exactly an expert on this though.

That depends on the pool whether you can use a btc adress as your user login

Looking at the pool, it says the following:

Code: (http://ckpool.org/#/)
Set your username to your btcaddress with any or even no worker extension, and any password.
eg: cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool.ckpool.org:3333 -u 1PKN98VN2z5gwSGZvGKS2bj8aADZBkyhkZ.0 -p x


So, any adress you control the private keys over should do.


Dumb question but does this pool support overt ASICBOOST?

Yep, dumb question.  Smiley

This pool was the pioneer of overt ASIC Boost.

And native segwit addresses Smiley

So you shouldn't have to do all of the above.

I just want to make sure when I'm in a mining pool and using CLI CGminer that I'm sending the payout to the right place!

For example:
My electrum wallet has multiple "receiving addresses" they all start with bc1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Is that what I put in as the username in cgminer?

For example, is this correct?
If my receiving address is bc1XXXXX, then my bat file should read:

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://pool.ckpool.org:3333 --suggest-diff 128 -u bc1XXXXX -p x

username "-u" is basically the entire receiving address in electrum wallet? And I can use any one of them since there are multiple ones?

Thanks for your assistance.
