Description

Overview

Overview

BlackCoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that utilizes a proof-of-stake system. It is open-source and secure, with a focus on energy efficiency and low inflation.

History

Originally launched as a proof-of-work coin, BlackCoin has evolved to a unique version of proof-of-stake. The development goal was to prove the stability and security of this alternative consensus mechanism.

Technical Features

  • Security: BlackCoin was one of the first to fix SSL heartbeat and transaction malleability issues.
  • Staking: Wallet users can unlock their wallet for staking only, which provides a secure way to support the blockchain.
  • Block Time: The target block time is 64 seconds, and the maximum reorganization depth is 500 blocks.
  • Transaction Fee: The minimum transaction fee is 0.0001 BLK.
  • PoS Reward: The PoS block reward is 1.5 BLK + fees, and the accumulated reward is proportional to the total balance and staking time.
  • Interest Rate: Users can earn an expected reward ratio (interest rate) of about 5% from continuous staking.

Key Advantages

  • Energy Efficient: BlackCoin does not require energy-intensive mining like proof-of-work systems.
  • Low Inflation: The annual inflation rate is approximately 0.95%.
  • Fast Transactions: BlackCoin transactions are confirmed quickly, with an expected confirmation time of 64 seconds.
  • Transparency: The open-source software ensures transparency and auditable safety.
  • Accessibility: Anyone can run the wallet and transact with the same anonymity as Bitcoin, without requiring personal identifying information.
