Parasite Pool, created by popular OMB (Ordinal Maxi Biz) creator zK_shark, rewrites the usual pool playbook. Instead of skimming a fee or paying every worker a tiny slice of each block, it sets aside 1 BTC for the miner who actually finds the block, then divides the rest of the block subsidy + fees among everyone else, all settled instantly over Lightning, and it charges zero pool fees for the privilege. The model rewards small, home‑scale rigs like the Bitaxe and Nerdaxe, which rarely win blocks on their own, while still giving you a lottery‑style shot at a full Bitcoin. In short, it’s a pool that trades predictable micro‑payouts for bigger upside, making home mining appealing for enthusiasts who care about fair economics and low‑power hardware.
