EMCD Wins the Best Crypto Mining Pools Award at CoinGape Web3 Innovation Awards 2026

July, 2026 – EMCD has won the Best Crypto Mining Pool Award at CoinGape Web3 Innovation Awards, 2026. For a platform that is not a single-focused mining pool, but has in fact, integrated mining pool as an add-on feature, this victory shows that the strength of a mining pool comes from accessibility, not purity.

About EMCD: Winner of the Best Crypto Mining Pools Award

EMCD, founded in 2017, made its first pool available in February 2018. Since then, it has been a mainstay on multiple top 10 global Bitcoin mining pool lists.

Supporting 7 mining pools in total, ranging from BTC, BCH, and DASH to DOGE, ETC, LTC, and KAS, what makes EMCD special is the fact that it is not exclusively a mining pool.

It is a broader crypto platform, complete with a savings product, exchange, and P2P features. However, because of this variety, EMCD has turned pools that used to be single-purpose infrastructure into a system where people have a way to use those earnings.

The pool fee on the platform is affordable, with users only charged up to 1.5%. It could go up to 4% in some cases, but that depends on the coins. The security aspect of the platform is also high, as in the last 9 years of operation, it is claimed to have never lost funds of even a single user.

Turning Mining Payout into Full Financial Workflow

Most mining pools focus only on deposits, with the profit-taking usually taking long due to the need to move funds out of the pool platforms for withdrawals. With EMCD, however, mining payout has a full financial workflow.

Those who mine on the platform can route their rewards straight into Coinhold, getting up to 14% APR savings.

They can also auto-convert mined coins on the spot, or use a P2P or bank system to withdraw their rewards.

Additionally, EMCD features a merged mining support ecosystem, which means users can mine BTC and Fractal Bitcoin, or LTC and DOGE, at the same time and at the same hashrate. And the best part is that there are no additional costs.

Standout Factors that Made EMCD a Winner

While most mining pools have a narrow infrastructure play, EMCD offers a complete bouquet of services. By weaving mining into a full crypto lifecycle, it also removes the need to move funds to an external system.

All the mined profits can be used right there on the platform. Users can choose to automatically allocate a portion of it to Coinhold, or convert it to USDT.

The fact that the platform claims to have suffered zero losses during the last 9 years of operation is also worth noting.

These factors show that EMCD has taken a holistic route towards mining pools, widening the scope of what users can do with the profits, which makes it a suitable and deserving winner of the Best Crypto Mining Pools Award.
