About the coin (initial summary)
- What coin: PCoin (PCN)
- Mining algorithm: RandomX
- CPU‑only or not: Yes (ASIC‑resistant, suitable for laptops and even Android devices)
- Brief description: Independent Layer‑1 blockchain based on a fork of Bitcoin Core, where instead of classic PoW the RandomX algorithm is used. The project aims to restore mining decentralization by using ordinary consumer hardware instead of ASIC farms. The economic model fully copies Bitcoin (emission 21 million, halving every 210 k blocks).
- Where to mine/pool: Currently only solo mining is available via the built‑in software miner; there are no pools.
- Wallet/links: pc.am, GitHub, Telegram, X.
- Community reaction: Proposal from the Chainquiry service to add the project to its catalog.
