What are the ports for HashVault?

For HashVault’s Monero pool, the two common connection ports are 3333 for a standard connection and 443 for an encrypted TLS connection. Use the server address pool.hashvault.pro, and check HashVault’s current connection instructions before you start, since pool settings can change.

The address and port to enter

A port is a numbered entry point on a server. Your mining software needs both the server name and the port number to connect to the right service.

The usual HashVault Monero connection settings are:

  • Standard connection: pool.hashvault.pro:3333
  • Encrypted connection: pool.hashvault.pro:443

The number after the colon is the port. If your mining software has separate boxes for “host” and “port,” enter pool.hashvault.pro as the host and either 3333 or 443 as the port.

These are mining connection addresses, not web pages. Pasting them into your browser’s address bar is not a useful test of whether the pool works.

Which port should you choose?

Choose 443 with TLS enabled if your mining software supports it. TLS, short for Transport Layer Security, encrypts the connection between your miner and the pool. This helps protect the traffic while it travels across the network.

Choose 3333 without TLS if you need the standard, unencrypted connection.

The important part is matching the port to your miner’s security setting:

  • Port 443: turn TLS on.
  • Port 3333: use the standard connection without TLS.

Do not assume that entering 443 automatically switches encryption on. Some mining programs require you to enable TLS separately.

Using the encrypted port does not make your processor mine faster. It changes how your connection is protected, not how much mining work your device can do.

If you are mining in a browser

A browser miner cannot usually connect directly to a conventional pool address in the same way desktop mining software can.

Pools commonly use Stratum, a protocol that sends mining jobs to miners and receives their completed work. Browser software generally needs a compatible gateway to carry those messages.

That means pool.hashvault.pro:443 is not automatically a browser-compatible endpoint, even though ordinary secure websites also use port 443. If your browser mining service handles the pool connection for you, follow that service’s supported settings rather than entering a different port at random.

If the connection fails

Check these items before trying other port numbers:

  • The hostname is spelled pool.hashvault.pro.
  • The port matches your TLS setting.
  • Your software supports Monero mining and the pool’s connection method.
  • Your firewall or network is not blocking mining connections.
  • HashVault’s current instructions still list the endpoint you selected.

Only mine on devices you own or have explicit permission to use. If a workplace or school blocks mining, do not use a different port to bypass its rules.

The bottom line

Use pool.hashvault.pro:3333 for a standard connection or pool.hashvault.pro:443 with TLS enabled. For browser mining, you also need compatible connection support; choosing the correct port alone is not enough.
