Frequently Asked Questions

You are rewarded for renting us your computer's computing power for a desired period of time.

When your start our computing application (a special webpage) your browser receives block of work to solve/compute from our servers. Your browser starts immediatelly to work on the received block. When the current block of work is solved it is sent back to our servers.

This work model is based on "Grid computing":

Grid computing is a computing model involving a distributed architecture of large numbers of computers connected to solve a complex problem. In the grid computing model, servers or personal computers run independent tasks and are loosely linked by the Internet or low-speed networks. Individual participants may allow some of their computer's processing time to be put at the service of a large problem. The largest grid computing project is SETI@home, in which individual computer owners volunteer some of their multitasking processing cycles (while concurrently still using their computer) to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project. This computer-intensive problem uses thousands of PCs to download and search radio telescope data. We use our grid for evaluation of complex laboratory tests.

You are rewarded with points for each solved block of work. Received points are accumulated on your Mineprize account and can be converted to USD, to the one of the prizes (see https://mineprize.com/prizes ) or can be converted to the popular cryptocurrencies like BitCoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH).

Tips for speeding up the collection of points:

  1. Increase the "intensity" in the application to use more CPU power. This will use more paralel threads in your browser and could deliver more work in total.

  2. Turn off other programs or browser tabs that can use CPU power too. This will free up system resources and allow computing application use more computing power.

  3. Start the Mineprize on the other computers too. Simply log into your account on the other computer and start the computing application. Points from all computers will be collected to your main account.

  4. Join our affiliate program by propagating Mineprize through special URL address. When new user joins through your affiliate link you will get permanent commission of 10% from finished work of each of your users (affiliates).

You can earn from few $ to thousands of dollars.

Your income depends on several things:

  • How powerful you computer processor (CPU) is - when you rent us a low end netbook you can't expect much earnings. On the other hand average notebook with i3/i5 processor can do a decent amount of work. The best are gaming computers as they usually have powerful CPU needed for playing the games.

  • How long you let the application running - the longer you let the application running the more points it could earn for you. You can leave the computer running over night. This might be the best practice how to earn more because during the night the computer can use as much as computing power it needs. Nobody is working on the computer so all the system resources are available for the computing application.

  • The regularity of running the application - don't forget to run the application each day.

  • On how many of your computers your application is running - you can run Mineprize on as many computers as you want. Just log into the Mineprize on each of this computer and start computing application there.

  • Have you joined the affiliate program? - Everybody has an account and friends/followers on social networks today. This is the perfect channel to let you friends know they can earn money too! And you will receive 10% lifetime commission from all their work. Just motivate them a little bit. This way can speed up collecting of your points dramatically. Simply log into your account and copy/paste the affiliate link (looks like https://mineprize.com/go/123456) to your Facebook, Twitter or other social network.

No you are not receiving any points when your computer is off

Please understand that you are renting your computer power to us simply by running the computing application (webpage) in your browser.

When you are not connected to the internet you cannot receive and send work from/to our servers so you cannot receive any points because you have not delivered any work.

The same situation is when your computer is switched off. It is simply not running so it cannot deliver any work to us.

Please have a look at FAQ called "How much I can earn?" on this page to get some ideas how to earn more points.



$1 (one dollar) equals to 100 000 points (one hundred thousands)

$10 (ten dollars) equals to 1 000 000 points (one million)

$100 (one hundred dollars) equals to 10 000 000 points (ten million)
