About the coin (initial summary)
What the coin is: Opacra (OPCA) – a private cryptocurrency with its own blockchain, built on Monero code (v0.18.5.1 with patches up to v0.18.5.4).
Mining algorithm: RandomOPCA – a variant of RandomX with its own seed, intended for mining on regular CPUs.
CPU‑only or not: Yes, mining is CPU‑only.
Brief description: Opacra is positioned as a private currency that provides transaction confidentiality by default (hides sender, recipient, and amount) and allows optional auditing (payment confirmations, proof of reserves). Fast blocks (30 seconds) enable spending received coins after ~5 minutes, and mining after ~30 minutes. The project promises fair mining with no premine, ICO, pre‑sale, or airdrop – all rewards are available from the first block.
Where to mine/pool: No specific pool is listed; mining opens simultaneously for everyone on opacra.org at launch.
Wallet/links: opacra.org, testnet opacra.org/#testnet, source code, X: @opacra_org, Discord.
Community reaction: In the first reply the author confirmed the launch time, emphasized that no one can mine ahead of time (the code rejects blocks before 14:00 UTC), mentioned the operation of a public testnet, and recommended downloading the software only from the official site with signature verification.
