Unobtanium sits among the oldest, most viable, and strongest public blockchain projects in existence. It uses the same strong Sha256d encryption as Bitcoin, but there are important differences.
Uno has 3 minute blocks, which means it is 3 times faster than Bitcoin. Faster blocks add additional capacity, scaleability and security to the network.
Unobtanium is a stand alone proof-of-work blockchain that is merged mined (Auxilliary Proof of Work or AuxPow) with Bitcoin. This means that miners can mine Unobtanium blocks and earn Uno rewards simultaneously as they mine Bitcoin blocks. If miner generates a hash that isn't strong enough to solve a Bitcoin block, it may still be strong enough to solve a UNO block. Instead of not earning anything, AuxPow lets a miner earn UNO for their effort. AuxPow improves profitability for Bitcoin miners, while securing UNO with an extremely strong network hash rate. This approach is efficient. As a result of AuxPow with Bitcoin, UNO achieves a consistently higher hash than BSV and BCH. Combined!
Unobtanium was launched in 2013, before the proliferation of ICO's. Uno is a fairly launched blockchain, which means there was no pre-mine. Every Uno in existence was mined through proof of work. The launch of Unobtanium was pre-announced, giving miners time to setup their equipment and participate in the launch.
After several years of reduced block rewards, Unobtanium has passed through its inflationary phase. The UNO network now produces a stable .01 Un per block.
Although Unobtanium uses the same encryption algorithm as Bitcoin, one important difference is the low issue of Uno "coins" or "tokens." Only 250,000 Uno will be produced, making it a rare and collectible issue.
Unobtanium has always been a community supported blockchain. It is not beholden to any single developer, organization or personality.
The strong Unobtanium network is open to anyone who needs to build applications or functionality on the back of a fast, strong and secure blockchain. If Bitcoin isn't a good fit for your project, then consider building on top of the public Unobtanium blockchain.
The Unobtanium community is forward looking, encouraging saavy traders to begin trading UNO on Bisq or BlockDX DEX exchanges. BlockDX is pure atomic swap trading, meaning that you don't have to trust your private keys to a 3rd party exchange. The UNO community has learned its lesson, having dodged exchange disasters many times during its long history. From Coin-ex.pw to Mintpal, from Cryptsy to Cryptopia -- we know how hard it sucks to have your UNO and other precious crypto on a hacked exchange. The only way to keep your UNO safe is to maintain absolute control of your private keys. Therefor, we encourage smart traders to begin gaining experience with decentralized cryptocurrency trading. In the process, you can help liberate UNO from the tyranny of KYC and exchange de-listing threats (I'm talking to you, Bittrex!). Learn to trade UNO on Bisq or BlockDx.
