NEXA Mining
How traditional Nexa mining works
Nexa is a UTXO proof-of-work chain with on-chain scripting aimed at higher throughput than Bitcoin. The native coin is NEXA. PoW is NexaPow.
GPU mining existed first. The NexaPow ASIC on this site is the DragonBall A21. If you are not buying that unit, you are competing with it on GPUs.
Nexa mining pools
NexaPow is widely listed. Examples:
- WoolyPooly: NEXA coin page with GPU and ASIC connection strings.
- HeroMiners: Dedicated Nexa pool UI and calculator.
- Zergpool: Auto-exchange option; read payout coin settings before you start.
- MiningPoolStats: Full public pool list.
Nexa mining algorithm
NexaPow is Nexa’s own PoW function (not SHA-256, not Ethash). GPU miners (for example bzMiner / SRBMiner where supported) and the DragonBall A21 ASIC both speak it.
There is only one NexaPow ASIC SKU on this site. “Other Nexa miners” on the A21 page is empty on purpose until another model ships.

How to set up a Nexa mining rig
-
1. Choose Nexa mining hardware
A21 ASIC if you want the NexaPow machine; otherwise a GPU stack with a maintained NexaPow miner. Do not flash a Bitcoin ASIC.
-
2. Set up a Nexa wallet
Use a wallet from nexa.org or an exchange that lists NEXA. Test a small withdrawal.
-
3. Configure miner or ASIC to the pool
GPU: follow the pool’s NexaPow command line. ASIC: web UI stratum from the same pool.
-
4. Be cautious with firmware and miner binaries
GPU miner EXEs from random hosts are malware magnets. ASIC firmware only from DragonBall or the pool’s linked source.
-
5. Start mining
Confirm NEXA (or the auto-exchange coin you chose) on the dashboard. Solo is possible but pools are the default.
Frequently asked questions
Nexa is a PoW UTXO chain with the NexaPow algorithm. Site: nexa.org.
No: only the DragonBall A21 is listed here. GPU mining still exists alongside it.
No. Those are Scrypt and SHA-256.
