Mining algorithm: not specified (ASIC resistance confirmed)
CPU-only or not: yes, the project is aimed at CPU mining
Brief description: A decentralized network using a hybrid PoW+PoS consensus mechanism. The project positions itself as an open‑source solution with protection against ASIC miners.
Where to mine/pool: official pool (link in the post), EasyMiner available for Windows and a native miner for Linux.
Wallet/links: web wallet (in‑browser), Windows GUI wallet (v1.0.1), GitHub, official site civiclight.xyz.
Community reaction: users pointed out issues with block display in the explorer and lack of a Linux miner (issues resolved by the developer). There were also questions about the existence of a Discord and a Windows wallet.
Update history (deltas)
2026-08-08 16:47 UTC — 58 new messages
Main topic of new messages: Fixing a critical bug in the P2P protocol that prevented nodes from synchronizing, and the launch of a new official mining pool.
Key news/updates:
Launch of new pool: Migration to a more stable infrastructure (address: 103.180.165.99). Pool fee — 1%, payouts automatic (every hour).
Core fix: Developer fixed a bug in the code (pchMessageStart) that caused different node versions to not “see” each other. The fix is already deployed on the server side, but full software updates for users (binary files) are being prepared.
New interface: Updated URL for checking balance and miner statistics.
Problems/complaints:
Data reset: Users report loss of coins and reset of block height (likely due to network/core parameter updates).
Technical errors: Complaints about inability to sync the Windows wallet and library errors (libfmt.so.8) when running on newer Ubuntu versions.
Display issues: Errors when trying to verify earned funds via old links.
Overall tone: Negatively tense (due to users losing funds and technical failures), despite the developer’s attempts to stabilize the network.
