DTV Electronics Partners with AtlasPool.io For A Better Solo Mining Experience
- Published on

The Bitcoin mining landscape just got better. DTV Electronics has partnered with AtlasPool.io to deliver a superior out-of-the-box mining experience for solo miners worldwide.
Starting now, all DTV Electronics miners ship pre-configured to connect directly to AtlasPool. This isn’t just about convenience. It’s about performance, reliability, and giving miners the best possible chance at finding blocks from day one.
Why This Partnership Matters
Solo mining can be technically challenging. Choosing the right pool, configuring settings, dealing with latency issues. Most miners face these hurdles before they even start hashing. DTV Electronics and AtlasPool are removing those barriers.
AtlasPool brings something unique to the table: a globally distributed infrastructure that most hosted solo pools simply don’t have. With seven endpoints across continents and over 100 network entry points, miners get automatically routed to the closest server. No manual configuration. No guesswork.
The result? Lower latency. Fewer rejected shares. Better uptime.
What’s In The Box
Every DTV Electronics miner will now includes a quick-start leaflet. Simple instructions that get you mining in minutes:
- Unbox your miner
- Add your Bitcoin address + worker name
- Start mining
That’s it. The pool connection is already configured to solo.atlaspool.io:3333. You’re ready to go.
For miners who want to customize their setup or switch pools later, full control remains in your hands. The default configuration is there to help, not restrict. Change settings whenever you want.
The AtlasPool Advantage
So why AtlasPool specifically? The technical benefits are substantial.
Global Infrastructure – Seven endpoints spanning North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Wherever you are in the world, you’re connecting to a nearby server. This matters because latency directly impacts rejected shares. Even a 0.5% rejection rate means losing 3.6 hours of work per month. AtlasPool’s infrastructure is built to minimize that waste.
BGP Anycast Routing – This is where things get interesting. AtlasPool uses anycast technology to automatically route your miner to the nearest endpoint. You don’t select a region. The network does it for you. Sydney miners connect to Sydney. European miners connect to Frankfurt. All through a single pool address.
Exceptional Uptime – Most solo pools run a single server. If it goes down, you’re offline. AtlasPool’s redundant architecture means automatic failover. If one endpoint experiences issues, your miner reconnects to the next closest location. Mining continues without interruption.
Transparent Monitoring – Real-time dashboard showing hashrate, worker stats, best shares, and network information. You see exactly what your miners are doing at all times.
TLS Encryption – For devices that support it, AtlasPool offers encrypted connections on port 4333. Security matters, especially when you’re potentially winning entire block rewards.
The pool runs on ckpool, the same reliable open-source stratum server that powers many established mining pools. Each endpoint operates its own local Bitcoin node, well connected to the network for fast block propagation.
The Numbers Behind The Decision
DTV Electronics doesn’t make partnerships lightly. The decision to default to AtlasPool came down to measurable performance.
Latency testing showed consistent improvements across geographic regions. Miners in Australia saw 40-60ms latency to Sydney endpoints. European miners typically see 20-30ms to Frankfurt. Compare that to 150-200ms when connecting to pools on other continents.
Lower latency translates directly to fewer rejected shares. Even a reduction from 1% to 0.5% recovers significant mining time. Over a month, that’s 3.6 hours of productive hashing instead of wasted work.
Uptime metrics matter too. Single-server pools often experience hours of weekly downtime, sometimes without disclosure. AtlasPool’s distributed design delivers near-perfect availability. Your miners stay connected and productive.
Fee Structure
AtlasPool charges 1.5% when you find a block. No upfront costs. No monthly fees. You only pay if you succeed.
Is 1.5% higher than some competitors? Yes. Public Pool offers 0% fees. CkPool charges 2%. But here’s what you get for that 1.5%:
- Seven global endpoints instead of one
- Automatic geographic routing
- Redundant infrastructure with failover
- Professional monitoring and support
- Ongoing development and maintenance
The fee supports real operational costs. Maintaining servers across continents isn’t free. Neither is building and maintaining the anycast network architecture.
For most miners, the latency reduction and reliability improvements more than justify the fee through reduced rejected shares and better uptime.
What This Means For DTV Electronics Customers
You’re getting a mining device optimized for success from the moment you power it on. No research required. No trial and error with different pools. The configuration is already set to deliver optimal performance.
The included leaflet walks you through setup in plain language. Add your wallet address, append a worker name if you want to track multiple devices, and you’re mining. The technical complexity is handled behind the scenes.
Want to dive deeper? The AtlasPool dashboard gives you comprehensive stats. Track individual workers. Monitor hashrate trends. See your best shares. Check Bitcoin network status. All the data is there when you want it.
Need to switch pools? The choice is always yours. DTV Electronics miners give you full control over your configuration. AtlasPool is the default because it delivers results, not because it’s the only option.
Looking Forward
This partnership is just the beginning. DTV Electronics and AtlasPool are exploring additional ways to enhance the mining experience.
Future possibilities include custom firmware optimizations, customized mining devices, expanded monitoring features, and deeper integration between hardware and pool infrastructure. The goal is simple: make solo mining as efficient and accessible as possible.
Both companies share a commitment to Bitcoin’s decentralization. Solo mining plays a vital role in that vision. When individual miners can successfully participate in block discovery without relying on large pools, the network benefits.
Making solo mining more accessible strengthens Bitcoin. This partnership is a step in that direction.
Getting Started
If you’re an existing DTV Electronics customer, you can switch to AtlasPool any time. Just update your pool settings:
Pool Address: solo.atlaspool.io:3333
Username: Your Bitcoin wallet address (append .workername for individual device tracking)
Password: Not required (use x or leave blank)
For TLS encryption (if your device supports it), use port 4333 instead.
New DTV Electronics miners ship ready to go. Just add your wallet address and start hashing.
The Bottom Line
DTV Electronics chose AtlasPool because it delivers measurable advantages: lower latency, better uptime, and professional infrastructure. The partnership eliminates setup friction while giving miners the freedom to customize their experience.
Solo mining remains a lottery. Finding blocks requires both hashrate and luck. But why not optimize your odds? Better pool infrastructure means more productive hashing time. Lower rejected shares. Fewer connection issues.
AtlasPool’s global deployment brings the pool closer to miners worldwide. Automatic routing removes guesswork. Redundant servers ensure reliability. The infrastructure works so you can focus on mining.
For DTV Electronics customers, this means plug-and-play simplicity with enterprise-grade performance. Unbox, configure your wallet, and mine. The rest is handled.
Test it yourself. Compare latency and rejection rates to other pools. The proof is in your own data. That’s the whole point of this partnership: giving miners tools that deliver real, measurable improvements.
Welcome to a better solo mining.
