Common Questions

Everything you need to know.

Does this slow down my computer?

Pause smartly identifies idle states and only runs when you are away. Once mouse movement or high-load tasks are detected, it stops immediately. Zero impact on your normal usage.

Earnings accrue in real-time with no lock-up periods. You can click withdraw in the dashboard at any time, and USDC is sent to your wallet via Solana in seconds.

The barrier is extremely low; any connected desktop or laptop can participate. Of course, high-performance devices with dedicated GPUs will earn higher Pro-tier compute rewards.
