What is a Mining Pool? A mining pool is a way that cryptocurrency miners can win rewards faster by grouping together to split up the block’s rewards.

Instead of having to wait on average 10 days, for example, they could join a pool of 10 people, changing the average wait from 10 days to 1 day. However, they will also have to split the rewards between all the other miners in the pool.
