Happy Hashing

Create a Luxor Account
Once you have verified your account, create a Subaccount for BTC mining
```
Settings -> Manage -> Create Subaccount
```
Set an BTC Wallet
```
Settings -> Wallet -> Add New Wallet
```

Setting up Workers

After you login into our platform, the Dashboard tab will give you an option to add new workers.

Go to your workers setup configuration and type in the pool setting as follows:

URL: stratum+tcp://btc.global.luxor.tech:700

Worker: [Subaccount].WorkerName
Password: 123

It automatically proxies your miner's TCP connection to the nearest available region without having to think about regional settings or port numbers. Additionally, if the nearest region is temporarily down for various reasons (bugs, cloud-provider maintenance, etc) then your miner will automatically get redirected to the nearest region to prevent any loss in hashing.

Important Note: Workername can be anything, but avoid using symbols or special characters as it may be invalid.

Creating a Subaccount

We have made this cool article for you to help you create your Subaccounts.
