New to Darkbloom

Start earning in about 5 minutes.

BloomGauge installs Darkbloom for you. No Terminal.

1. Download BloomGauge and open it. It checks your Mac first and tells you if anything needs changing.
2. Choose “Set up this Mac to earn”. BloomGauge downloads Darkbloom from Darkbloom’s server and checks it (hashes, Apple signature and notarization) before installing.
3. Sign in to Darkbloom (or create an account) in your browser and approve the Mac. BloomGauge picks a model that fits, downloads it in the background and starts serving.
4. Verification usually takes minutes, sometimes a few hours. Then your Mac earns while it’s awake and online.

BloomGauge runs on macOS 14+. To earn with Darkbloom you need an Apple Silicon Mac with 48 GB+ memory. Darkbloom accepts macOS 26, but update to macOS 27 first: it skips the MDM profile step, which Darkbloom is retiring. Free · 1.36.73 beta 54
