Introducing ParnianCoin (PARC): A Small PoW Coin You Can Mine with CPU or GPU
Hi Hive! 馃憢
I'm new here, and I'd like to introduce a project I've been building: ParnianCoin (PARC), an independent Proof-of-Work cryptocurrency that anyone can mine with an ordinary CPU or an NVIDIA GPU.
Why ParnianCoin?
Most PoW coins today are dominated by big farms and specialized hardware. PARC uses the RandomHash2 algorithm, which keeps mining accessible to regular home computers. My goal is simple: grow an honest, organic community of real miners, not hype.
What's already live
Everything below is up and running today:
- Web Wallet: create your keys in the browser, no desktop app needed
- Free accounts: new users can get a free account to start receiving PARC right away
- Block Explorer: track blocks, accounts and transactions
- Two mining pools with automatic failover (0.5% pool fee)
- PARC/LTC market: buy and sell PARC with Litecoin directly inside the web wallet
- Parnian Pay: a payment gateway with plugins for WooCommerce, OpenCart and PrestaShop
- Open-source miner: CPU and NVIDIA GPU support, plus HiveOS and mmpOS packages
How to start mining
- Get a free account from the web wallet
- Download the miner from our GitHub
- Point it to
stratum.parniancoin.com(backup:stratum1.parniancoin.com)
Pool payouts run every 10 minutes for blocks that have reached 100 confirmations.
