Hi everyone — we operate AethelBlock and would like to share our Quantus (QTC) connection settings for Hive OS users.
Quantus uses QPoW / Poseidon2. This post refers to Quantus, not other projects using the QTC ticker.
| Mode | Stratum TCP endpoint | Pool fee |
|---|---|---|
| PPLNS | quantus-pool.aethelblock.com:3068 | 1% |
| SOLO | quantus-solo.aethelblock.com:3069 | 1% |
Available mature balances are checked hourly, with a minimum payout of 0.1 QTC. Network transaction fees are deducted from miner payouts; the mining software’s developer fee is separate. Hourly processing does not remove block maturity or guarantee a payment every hour.
For SRBMiner’s Hive OS Custom Miner package, follow the instructions for your chosen official release. Set the algorithm, pool and wallet manually in Extra config arguments; do not use Hive OS placeholders there. PPLNS example:
--disable-cpu --algorithm quantus --pool quantus-pool.aethelblock.com:3068 --wallet YOUR_QTC_WALLET.rig1
Replace YOUR_QTC_WALLET with your complete Quantus receiving address and rig1 with your worker name. For SOLO, use quantus-solo.aethelblock.com:3069 instead. Receiving jobs is only the first check: confirm accepted shares and look up your wallet in the matching PPLNS/SOLO miner panel.

We cannot claim physical testing of every GPU and Hive OS version. If you encounter a connection problem, please share the miner version, GPU, worker name and exact error, without private keys or recovery words. We are happy to help here or at [email protected].
