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.
