Stake Mines calculator

Stake popularised the modern crypto Mines game, which is why “Stake Mines calculator” is one of the most searched tools in the genre. Use the calculator below to work out the exact multiplier, win probability and payout for any Stake Mines round — set how many mines sit on the 5×5 grid and how many safe tiles you plan to reveal, and the numbers update instantly.

Because every crypto Mines game shares the same 25-tile board and the same probability maths, this tool models a Stake round just as accurately as it models one here. The only figure that varies between sites is the house edge; the multiplier curve and the odds of each safe pick are identical everywhere.

How Stake Mines works

Stake Mines is the classic format: a 5×5 grid of 25 tiles, with anywhere from 1 to 24 hidden mines that you choose before the round. You flip tiles one at a time, your multiplier climbs with every safe reveal, and you can cash out at any moment — or lose your bet the instant you uncover a mine.

The mine positions are fixed by a provably fair seed the moment the round begins, so no sequence of clicks can move them. That is exactly why a calculator is the only tool that genuinely helps: it shows the real odds, which no predictor can improve on.

Using this as a Stake Mines calculator

Enter the same mine count and number of safe tiles you would pick on Stake and you get the same multiplier and win chance shown here. The payout is calculated with SatoshiMines’ flat 1% house edge, so it is exact for SatoshiMines and a very close approximation for a Stake round — the underlying probability is shared, only the edge can differ slightly.

If you like the Stake Mines format, SatoshiMines is a provably fair alternative built around exactly this game, played in Bitcoin with that flat 1% edge, so you can verify every round for yourself.

Want the underlying maths in full? The main Mines calculator breaks down the multiplier formula step by step, and the multiplier explainer works through the probability behind it. There is no predictor or pattern that beats a provably fair board — knowing the true odds is the only edge.

Stake Mines calculator FAQ

Is this an accurate Stake Mines calculator?

Yes. Stake Mines uses the same 5×5, 25-tile board and the same probability formula as every other crypto Mines game, so the multiplier and win-chance figures here apply directly to a Stake round. The payout uses SatoshiMines’ flat 1% house edge; if Stake’s edge differs the payout will be very slightly off, but the multiplier curve and odds are identical.

How is the Stake Mines multiplier calculated?

After revealing k safe tiles on a 25-tile grid with m mines, the fair multiplier is the product of (25 − i) ÷ (25 − m − i) for i from 0 to k − 1, then reduced by the house edge. More mines or more safe reveals means a bigger multiplier but a smaller chance of getting there.

Is there a Stake Mines predictor that shows safe tiles?

No. On a provably fair Mines game the mines are locked by a cryptographic seed before your first pick, so no predictor, hack or pattern can know which tiles are safe. A calculator that shows the true odds for each step is the only legitimate tool — anything claiming to reveal safe tiles is a scam.

What is a good alternative to Stake Mines?
