Greetings Bitcointalk!

I come from Alephium, (which I am affiliated with) to share the news: Alephium’s mainnet was just launched yesterday after over 3years of R&D and we are welcoming miners to the mainnet.

Our initial target hashrate of 550 Gh/s represents ~1000 GPUs, but we’re in the very early stages of the network and to improve decentralization, we want to onboard more miners.

You can find the necessary tools and information on our github: https://github.com/alephium/alephium/wiki/GPU-Miner-Guide

If you have any questions about mining on Alephium, please join our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/JErgRBfRSB

Why mine Alephium?
Alephium is the first operational sharded blockchain bringing scalability, ETH-inspired smart contracts and Dapps capabilities to Bitcoin's proven core technologies (PoW and UTXO) while ensuring better performance and improved energy efficiency.

Technology

BlockFlow - Sharding on BTC’s proven foundations
Alephium is built on the BlockFlow algorithm which delivers efficient and practical UTXO sharding. Inspired by distributed computing models, it combines DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) and sharding. Much more lightweight than other sharding methods, BlockFlow also natively supports single-step cross shard transaction making Alephium user-experience just as convenient as any single chain platform.

Proof of Less Work (PoLW)
PoLW uses a clever combination of physical work and token economics to dynamically adjust the work required to mine new blocks, ensuring a reduced energy footprint compared to classic Nakamoto PoW mining.

Smart contract design
Alephium’s smart contracts have been designed and implemented to be scalable, functional, practical with a focus on security and reduced state usage. Its stateful UTXO model combines the advantages of both eUTXO model and account model.

Novel VM design
Alephium’s novel virtual machine is designed to resolve many of the critical issues of the current dApps platforms.
Alephium’s VM is less IO intensive ensuring unmatched performance. Flash loan is not available by design and the VM eliminates many attack vectors of EVM, including unlimited authorization, double dip issue, reentrancy attack, etc.
Finally, its UTXO style fine-grained execution model reduces risk-free arbitrage.

Miscellaneous

We’re passionate and committed to outstanding quality in everything we do. We took the necessary time to transform theory to actual technologies.
  • 16 Shards running on mainnet.
  • 100MB of RAM needed by the full node. (Runs on a Raspberry-Pi.)
  • Over 3 years of R&D.
Our community is small but really engaged, talented and committed to contribute to the network.
