Community demands anonymity and we hear it. We are going to implement anonymity feature soon after e-sports betting is up and running. Its on Minerals roadmap and we are not going to rest until anonymity is in place.

Nodes are hardcoded, there is no need to have config file.

Minerals has entered pure POS stage. This means you can no longer mine Minerals directly. You may use http://multipool.minerals.pro to mine Minerals using our multipool.

Please, read this post regarding affiliation

Pool mining - you can have only 1 worker per account and this 1 worker has a limit of 50 MH/s hashrate. Any other workers that you've created were deleted.
PS: if you have several small mining rigs you may use 1 worker for all of them, all valid shares that they produce will be accepted just as well as if you were using multiple workers for each rig

Multipool is ready. It is turned off at the moment until the end of POW stage. At the moment it supports X11 algo only. There is no mining fee, only trading and transaction fees.


Why Minerals?
Inspired by StarCraft, Minerals is a POW/POS cryptocurrency designed to be as evenly distributed as possible across vast group of miners, investors and other communities. Because of its even distribution of coins, Minerals is intended to be appealing to non-crypto community as well.

Premine, IPO, instamine?
There is no premine, no IPO, no instamine.
  • Instamine is avoided by rewarding first 100 blocks with 1 MIN.
  • There is no IPO.
  • There is no premine.

Dev’s interest?
The dev team will have the interest in the coin, in its further development and marketing by cutting out the middlemen – pools. There is no reason for miners to pay fees to pool owners, who don't contribute to coin development and are only interested in instantaneous profit from the coin and easily move on to another coin. Moreover, pools often wage wars and DDoS each other which only creates anxiety and instability in the network and is detrimental for the coin. Therefore, there will be no third-party pools, all pools will be operated by us. There will be a total of six pools (scv, mule, probe, drone, refinary, exctractor), each with 1% fee. This pool fee will be used for further coin development and to keep our interests aligned. Fees collected from the pools will be stored in a designated public address and each coin movement will be publicly disclosed.

Multipools problem?
There will be no multipools as all pools are operated by us - no dumping of coins and no messing up with the network difficulty.

Solo mining?
In order to avoid potential ASICs and big farms from dominating the coin network there will be no solo mining.

Big farms/ASICs?
Hashing power of each worker and/or IP will be limited to not more than 50 MH/s (see the poll) by limiting the number of shares that a worker can send to the pool per unit of time.

How do you achieve all of this?
The only way to avoid Multipools, ASICs, big farms and third-party pools is by not providing the wallet and the source code until after the POW stage ends. The source code will be provided to exchanges which will be operational from the start. Moreover, to remove any doubt about the validity of the coin and it's source code third-party experts will be given the sorce code for validation and checks. The wallets might be provided before the end of the POW stage.

How to receive mined coins?
You can use the exchange or keep your coins in our pools until the wallets are provided.

Block explorer?
Available at launch.
