Payout distribution in a mining pool depends on several factors, such as the mining pool's policies and the type of cryptocurrency being mined. Generally, mining pools distribute payouts to their members periodically, often daily or weekly, based on the proportion of computing power contributed by each member.
The payout system is usually automatic and transparent, with each member having access to real-time data on their earnings and contributions. Some mining pools may have different payout thresholds or fee structures that affect how often payouts are distributed.
