Mining that
burns.
Point your miner at a QuaiAxe address. The QUAI it earns buys $QAXE on the open market and destroys it — on-chain, by a contract with no owner and no withdraw. You decide how much burns and how much comes back to you.
Before you start
- Hardware You need your own mining hardware: a Bitaxe, SHA-256 ASIC, Scrypt miner or GPU (KawPoW).
- Electricity You pay for the electricity and the wear on your hardware. Start small.
- Rewards Nothing here promises any reward.
- First reward Quai locks every mining reward, so the first one arrives about 14 days after your first share. Shares show up in minutes.
- Settings, not proof The builder does not verify endpoint health, payout, or exact device/software compatibility.
$QAXE is QuaiAxe’s token on Quai Network, and as a miner you choose your burn share: the part of your mined QUAI (at least 10%) that buys and destroys it, with the rest, minus a fixed 0.5% fee, coming back to your wallet.

Where mining QUAI goes
All QUAI that reached a QuaiAxe mining deposit address, split by what the burn vault did with it. On-chain figures only; mining only, never mixed with Hartii buybacks.

Three steps, then it runs without you.
Get your address
Choose how much of your QUAI burns, then paste the address into your miner. It is derived from your own settings, so nobody — including us — can point it somewhere else.
Mine as normal
Quai pays block rewards straight to that address. Your shares show up within minutes; the QUAI itself unlocks about 14 days later, by the network’s own rule — not ours.
It buys and burns
Anyone can trigger the batch — no operator permission is needed. Your share is paid to your wallet or, if the transfer fails, reserved for you to withdraw.
Every QUAI accounted for, before you start.
Move the slider. This is the same arithmetic the V2 contract on mainnet runs, to the wei.
Planned allocation per 100 QUAI, with the maximum gas refund shown. Unused gas allowance stays on the burn side. The curve’s standard 1% trading fee is included in the buy amount.
No owner
Nobody can pause it, point it elsewhere, or take the funds.
No withdraw
Planned QUAI outflows are restricted to buy-and-burn, miner payouts, the disclosed treasury fee and bounded gas refunds.
Fixed rate
0.5% is a compile-time constant. Changing it would mean a different contract.
A real burn
Tokens are destroyed, not parked in a wallet. Total supply drops.
Soft launch · Quai mainnet
Point your hashrate at the fire.
The V2 contracts are deployed on mainnet and verified, and /mining gives you a real address today. This is a soft launch: the first mining reward unlocks about 14 days after the first share, and the first burn follows it.
