01 — BUILT FOR PARTICIPATION

You don’t need a data center
to make a difference.

The Coin keeps the essentials simple: accessible hardware, predictable supply, and useful payments.

A LIGHTER WAY IN

Your CPU. Your contribution.

Run a node on a modest Linux server. CoinHash uses memory-hard proof of work designed with ordinary CPUs in mind.

RULES YOU CAN VERIFY

Limited by design.

No premine or founder allocation. New TCN comes from mining, with rewards that halve every 625,000 blocks.

Understand the supply ↗
PAYMENTS WITH PURPOSE

More than a transfer.

Built-in contracts support escrow, vesting, subscriptions, atomic-swap building blocks, and shared multisig vaults.

Discover payment contracts ↗
02 — FROM YOU TO THE NETWORK

A payment’s journey.
No middleman required.

Every node checks the same rules independently. Here’s how a signed payment becomes part of the shared chain.

Your wallet signs the transaction locally. Your private keys stay with you.

03 — A PREDICTABLE SUPPLY

50 million.
A limit, not a target
to move.

The initial reward is 40 TCN per block. It halves every 625,000 blocks, gradually slowing new issuance. The supply cap and emission schedule cannot be changed by an on-chain vote.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Start with
the basics.

What is The Coin?

The Coin is an open-source, peer-to-peer digital currency. Independent computers verify payments and use proof of work to agree on a shared transaction history. Its currency is called TCN.

Do I need special mining hardware?

The node is designed for ordinary CPUs on Linux, starting at 1 vCPU and 1 GB RAM with swap. Mining rewards depend on your share of the network’s work; running a node does not guarantee rewards.

Can I participate without mining?

Yes. Run a validating node with the installer’s --no-mine option, build a wallet or integration, contribute code, or take part in governance if you hold TCN.

Is there a browser wallet?

Version 0.1 provides a command-line reference wallet. Graphical and web wallets are roadmap items. This website does not create wallets or hold your private keys.
