SimpleBTC is a PHP frontend for a pushpool or PoolServerJ-based bitcoin mining pool. It is a fork of the Simplecoin frontend, which at start of project had been out of development for about a year. Currently the changes consist only of bugfixes and minor updates, but the long-term goal is a complete overhaul that will make SimpleBTC a modern web-application with database abstraction, templating, internationalization, etc.
- User and worker management
- User and pool statistics
- Payout calculation and payments
- Basically everything you need to start a mining pool
You will first need the following prerequites:
- bitcoind and pushpool installed and configured
- PHP, tested under 5.2 but will likely work for many versions
- MySQL (more RDBMS to be supported in the future)
- Memcached
- PHP MySQL bindings
Note that SimpleBTC will provide a database schema for pushpool, so don't worry about setting up a database for it yet.
Then, see INSTALL.md for install instructions.

SimpleBTC is based on the now defunct SimpleCoin project, developed by Mike Allison ([email protected], 163Pv9cUDJTNUbadV4HMRQSSj3ipwLURRc), Wayno (1Gzcbs8dDYzf16qFWKHc5kWKuH8nji3pVt), and Tom Lightspeed ([email protected], 16p56JHwLna29dFhTRcTAurj4Zc2eScxTD). Patches to SimpleCoin by William Waisse are additionally included in SimpleBTC.
SimpleCoin was in turn based on Miner Pool by Xenland (12QY5HYbiT5Nx6fek8ss5pAywPsV3kqdu3).
