About the coin (primary summary)

Plaine (PLNE) — CPU mining coin

What is the coin

Plaine (PLNE) — a CPU‑only proof‑of‑work coin with consensus ISOchron v1. It is a non‑original, community coin developed without an author name and without premine.

Mining algorithm

CPUPower — an algorithm specifically created to exclude ASIC and GPU miners. An equal‑cost process oriented toward CPUs.

CPU‑only or not

Yes — the coin is built entirely as a CPU‑only PoW, with no support for graphics cards or specialized chips.

Brief description

Plaine offers a simple and honest alternative to classic PoW coins. The reward level is fixed at 0.2 PLNE per block with no halving mechanism. Allowed inflation tends toward zero as the network grows. Distribution coefficients — no premine, no pre‑sale, no developer fund.

Where to mine/pool

Mining can be done locally via a synchronized node (plaine-noded). There is a pool blacksmith.plne with Discord‑bot support for assistance and payouts. Tools are provided by the community: wallet and explorer at blacksmith.best.

Summary of new messages about Plaine (PLNE)

Main topic of new messages

There is a heated debate around the authorship of the Plaine (PLNE) project and accusations of ties to the fraudulent BTX project. Some posters claim that the current author is the same person who created BTX (CRB), and that he also developed the pool and explorer resembling those of BTX. Others reject these accusations, emphasizing that the founder’s identity is undisclosed and that he built the project solely from open‑source code and the website.

Key news/updates

• Network reached a throughput of 5 MH/s — stable performance growth
• plaine.net website update — a music track was added, likely containing an expanded project manifesto
• Active infrastructure development: pool blacksmith.plne, wallet blacksmith.best/wallets/plne, explorer blacksmith.best/explorers/plne

Issues/complaints

• Authorship conflict — accusations that a community member is the author of Plaine and also created a pool/explorer similar to BTX, possibly linked to the fraudulent project
• Ambiguous information — the current project’s author denies involvement, stating he only provides code and the website, while the community did everything else

Overall tone

Neutral‑critical — discussion among participants, where one side accuses the other of falsifying authorship, the other defends the project and points to lack of concrete evidence of BTX ties.
