Choose the destination, not just the currency
Mining BTC does not require an on-chain Bitcoin payout: you can choose FaucetPay or Lightning where available. Litecoin and Solana also have direct-wallet routes. Linked transfers serve a different purpose: CXL receives USD wallet value, while Lightning Quest receives game coins, not crypto.
| Route | Supported balances | Minimum / fees / limits | Delivery |
|---|---|---|---|
| FaucetPay | BTC, LTC, DOGE, ETH, SOL, USDC, USDT, TON | No fixed USD minimum; amount must be sendable in provider units. BTC must be whole satoshis. Normally $10 maximum per instant request; promotions may raise it. | Automatic when provider funds and service are available |
| BTC Lightning | BTC | The current Wallet minimum applies. Use a Lightning address or valid invoice. | Manual; normally within 24 hours |
| Direct Bitcoin | BTC | $10 minimum; 2% fee | Manual; normally within 24 hours |
| Direct Litecoin | LTC | $1 minimum; 1% fee | Manual; normally within 24 hours |
| Direct Solana | SOL | $1 minimum; 1% fee | Manual; normally within 24 hours |
| CXL Wallet | All eight mining currencies | Linked account required; live USD conversion, no transfer fee or three-hour cooldown | Linked-wallet transfer |
| Lightning Quest | BTC, LTC, DOGE, ETH, SOL, USDC | Recipient email or username; eligible value becomes 10,000 game coins per $1 | Game-account transfer, not a crypto wallet payout |
Withdrawing to FaucetPay
- Prepare your FaucetPay account. Use the destination requested by LM's FaucetPay form and verify that it matches your FaucetPay account. Do not paste a direct on-chain address into a field asking for an account identifier.
- Select a supported currency. Your BTC balance is separate from your LTC or DOGE balance. Choose the currency you actually have saved; the withdrawal form is not a swap service.
- Check the amount and units. One satoshi is 0.00000001 BTC. A BTC request must contain a whole number of satoshis. Very small amounts in other currencies must also satisfy the provider's sendable-unit rule.
- Review and submit once. Automatic delivery depends on provider availability and funding. Read the response and check withdrawal status before trying again.
- Check FaucetPay transaction history. Look for the same currency and amount. If LM reports a paid request but you cannot locate it, send support the request reference rather than submitting duplicate requests.
New to the provider? Visit FaucetPay's official website. Only use its official domain and never share your password, wallet seed or private keys with support.
A withdrawal checklist you can follow
Use the saved amount
The Wallet records settled crypto. The Dashboard includes a live estimate that has not necessarily been finalized. Requesting a withdrawal settles the eligible mining window first, but an old browser estimate is not a guaranteed spendable balance.
Match the network
Direct Bitcoin means an on-chain BTC address; Lightning uses a Lightning address or invoice. Direct Litecoin and Solana require addresses for their respective networks. Check every character and do not rely on the currency symbol alone.
Allow for fees and limits
Check the displayed minimum, fee and receiving amount before confirming. Direct-wallet fees reduce what you receive. A deposit or optional Premium purchase is not required just to start playing or to earn a saved balance.
Keep the request reference
Check your withdrawal history for pending, processing, paid or failed status. Manual routes are not instant. Save the reference, currency, destination and time if you need help.
Mined rewards have rolling 14-day windows. Unwithdrawn lots convert to site coins at their recorded earned USD value; they do not stay withdrawable crypto indefinitely. The tutorial explains reward-lot expiry in detail.
If your withdrawal does not go through
- Amount too small: check both the method's minimum and the provider's precision. Wait for more settled balance or choose another supported route.
- Cooldown active: check your last successful or pending request and wait for the displayed remaining time.
- Provider unavailable: wait and check the Wallet again. Provider availability is not a promise that any other route will accept the same destination.
- Account review or negative coins: an account restriction or an offerwall reversal can block spending. Follow the account message or contact support; creating extra accounts will not resolve it.
- Manual payment not received: check request status and the destination. If the normal processing window has passed, contact support with the request reference.
For an account-specific check, email support@lightningminer.com with your username, currency, request reference and approximate time. Never include passwords or recovery phrases. You can also view recent public payment records; those records do not guarantee a future payout or earning rate.
Before you send
Can I withdraw site coins as Bitcoin?
Coins are the game currency for items and marketplace purchases. They are not the same balance as mined BTC. Use the crypto amounts in Wallet when choosing a withdrawal.
Can I use a CXL transfer as a bank withdrawal?
No. The LM route adds converted USD value to your linked CXL wallet. It is not a direct transfer to a bank or crypto address; further use is governed by CXL's wallet options.
Does a falling live estimate mean a paid withdrawal was reversed?
No. A live estimate and a withdrawal record are different states. Check the saved balance and request history, and see the settlement explanation in the tutorial if a Dashboard number changes.
