What is Braiins Hashpower?
Braiins Hashpower is a real-time marketplace for buying Bitcoin mining hashrate (SHA-256 algorithm). It supports various buying strategies, including programmatic API access and automated trading bots.
Overview
Braiins Hashpower is a SHA-256 hashrate marketplace where buyers can acquire Bitcoin mining power on demand. The platform provides real-time trading, transparent pricing, and near-instant delivery of hashrate.
The marketplace operates with an order book model, allowing users to place bids (buy orders) at their preferred prices. When orders are matched, hashrate is delivered directly to the buyer's specified mining pool.
How Braiins Hashpower Works
The marketplace trades Bitcoin for hashrate - no other currencies are currently available. After completing onboarding and depositing BTC, the process is straightforward:
- Browse the live order book to see current market prices
- Place a bid specifying your price, budget, and destination pool
- When your bid is matched, the delivery executes automatically
- Hashrate is delivered directly to your mining pool of choice as long as the bid is matched
- Payments are settled in Bitcoin through the platform during the life of an order in regular intervals (hourly)
The platform displays real-time market data including:
- Live order book with aggregated asks and bids
- Price chart with candlestick visualization
- Current hashprice and basic market statistics
Market Parameters
Order Matching
The marketplace uses a dynamic matching algorithm designed to maximize yield. Bids are prioritized by price (highest first), then by age (oldest first). Any modification to a bid resets its age, making it younger in the queue.
Matching runs continuously, and bids are re-evaluated as market conditions change. This means hashrate delivery can shift between bids if a higher-priced or older bid becomes available. For detailed information about how matching works, see the FAQ.

Key Features
Key Limitations
Braiins Hashpower is currently in BETA. While we strive for reliability, outages, performance issues, or bugs may occur.
- Pool compatibility: Major Bitcoin pools are compatible, but many non-BTC SHA-256 coins are not supported due to insufficient
extranonce2_sizeoffered by the mining pools. See Pool Compatibility for details. - No withdrawals: The platform is non-custodial. You are expected to spend your funds on buying hashrate. In case you wish to exit the platform completely contact our Support for arrangements.
- Delivery momentum: Hashrate delivery has inherent latency. Ramp-up takes some time when a bid starts matching, and when a bid is terminated or runs low on budget, delivery slows down before the budget is fully consumed. When canceled, it takes a minute or two to end delivery and settle.
