FLIGHT SHEET SETUP
  1. Coin: pick "custom miner"
  2. "Wallet and worker": YOUR QTC ADDRESS in clear (starts with qz)
     — no %WAL%, no suffix: the rig name is appended automatically
  3. "Pool URL": qtc-node.ariabrain.com:9412   (leave empty = same default)
  4. "Extra config arguments": nothing needed by default
     (--gpu-list 0,1 to restrict cards, --hashrate-hint N, etc.)
  5. "Installation URL": the .tar.gz link provided by the moderators
     "Miner name": ariaminer-qtc (HiveOS fills it in from the link)

REQUIREMENTS: RTX 30xx / 40xx / 50xx. One instance drives all cards.
HiveOS image based on Ubuntu 22.04 or newer, NVIDIA driver 580 or newer.
At startup the 4096-vector oracle is replayed on every card: the miner
refuses to mine if any vector differs (see the miner log).

DEV FEE: 1 % of mining TIME (990 s yours / 10 s dev per 1000 s cycle), shown once at startup and verifiable on the pool page
https://pool.ariabrain.com/qtc.html (worker "dev"). The dev wallet address never appears in the logs.

POOL FEE: 1 % — displayed on the pool stats page.
