__TOC__
== Overview == <!--T:2-->
The PoW Miner helps get the next block added to the VeriBlock blockchain. It will connect to a local instance of NodeCore, using UCP on port 8501.

<!--T:3-->
You can run the PoW Miner as an individual, or connect to a pool (See: [[HowTo_run_and_connect_to_PoW_Miner_pool]])

<!--T:4-->
Note that PoW Mining is separate from Proof-of-Proof (PoP) Mining. Both reward VBK tokens, but are different operations. (See: [[HowTo_run_PoP_Miner]], [[PoW_vs_PoP_Mining]])
