Please be informed that UltimusPool has decided to discontinue its Bitcoin mining pool service and will cease pool operations on 22 Oct 2026.
The pool is scheduled to stop accepting mining shares at 09:59:59 UTC on 2026-10-22.
Shutdown Timeline
- 06:00:00 UTC on 2026-10-22 — We will begin disconnecting miners and disabling reconnections.
- 09:59:59 UTC on 2026-10-22 — Access to bs.ultimuspool.com (ports 8888, 3333, 1800 and 443) will be fully disabled. No further shares will be accepted.
What Steps Should I Take?
To avoid any disruption to your mining operations, we strongly recommend reconfiguring your miners before 06:00:00 UTC on 2026-10-22.
Until the cutoff time, the pool will continue operating under normal conditions, and you may continue mining and receiving payouts as usual.
Before the Final Payout
Please verify that the BTC wallet address in each sub-account's Payment Settings is correct. Your final balance will be paid out automatically to the wallet configured on each sub-account.
Post Pool Closure
- Final Payout: All remaining balances, including amounts below the minimum payout threshold of 0.005 BTC, will be automatically paid in full to each sub-account wallet during the final settlement window on 2026-10-23, the day after closure. After this window closes, no further payout requests or disputes will be processed, including for sub-accounts without a configured wallet address.
- After Shutdown: The UltimusPool website will no longer be accessible. If you need your historical statistics, worker data, or earnings records, please back them up before the pool closure date.
