Rewards depend on eligibility and reported contribution. Rates, timing, and availability can change.

Folding@HomeResearch, together
Computing power for research. Reported points determine each eligible participant’s share of the mining pool.

Research work.
A share of the rewards.

Mining is a way to distribute ATTO to Folding@Home contributors. It is separate from the process that confirms Atto payments.

Contribute

Your computer runs research work.

Folding@Home uses participants’ computing power for medical research. Choose how much CPU or GPU capacity to make available in its client.

Complete

Completed work earns points.

Folding@Home reports points for completed, successfully uploaded work units. Incomplete work does not contribute to the reward score.

Receive

Your contribution sets your share.

Each distribution cycle divides the mining pool proportionally among eligible team members, using their reported points for that period.

Atto payments use Open Representative Voting (ORV), not competitive proof-of-work mining. Each transaction still includes lightweight anti-spam work. See network confirmation metrics →

One pool.
Shared by contributors.

These are pool-wide emission rates, not a quote for what one computer will earn. Your allocation depends on your share of eligible points.

Effective mining rate

100 ATTO / minute

The reported effective rate for the entire mining pool.

Base mining rate

1,000 ATTO / minute

The reported base rate, before any effective-rate adjustment.

Distribution is periodic, not a payment every minute. The calculation uses the elapsed time since the previous update and eligible contributions during that period. Read the reward calculation.
