ok maybe I wasnt clear on what i am looking for.... when you config a miner they ask you for a wallet address. right? but if you insert your receiving address for bitcoin or whatever crypto you are mining it wont accept that wallet address.... why?

It should. I doubt it that what you have a is a miner. You can see how a decent miner looks like here https://www.prnewswire.co.uk/news-releases/bitmain-announces-specs-for-next-gen-antminer-s19-and-s19-pro-coming-soon-861798654.html which dont ask you for your address but your pool ip and login credentials instead

I'm sorry but a "mining wallet" doesn't exist. There's only cloud mining that is questionable. The rest don't won't hurt you so feel free to explore. Just avoid 1) malware 2) Paying (even if they say you have $3k, pay to withdraw)
