P2P Ecological Crypto-Currency — A long-term energy-efficient digital economy strategy

Website | Block Explorer | SolarNET.HuB

ECOin is a P2P crypto-currency with the goal of providing a long-term energy-efficient digital economy strategy.

It uses the SCRYPT algorithm and is the only crypto in the market that implements three different mining systems simultaneously:

• Proof-Of-Work (PoW) — Traditional CPU mining
• Proof-Of-Stake (PoS) — Variable interest based on coin age
• Proof-Of-Transaction (PoT) — Mining by matching address segment to block hash on transactions > 500 ECO

ECOin includes Zerocoin privacy extensions for enhanced transaction privacy.

Proof-Of-Work Mining (PoW) rewards with halving every 262,800 blocks:

ECOin wallet is available in 10 languages:

ECOin builds on GNU/Linux, Windows (MinGW), and macOS. See INSTALL for detailed instructions.

Create ~/.ecoin/ecoin.conf (chmod 600):

rpcuser=ecoinrpc
rpcpassword=<YOUR_SECURE_PASSWORD>
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
testnet=0
noirc=1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
addnode=46.163.118.220

ECOin is using a bootstrap.dat binary file containing blockchain data, from the genesis block through first checkpoint that allows new wallets to synchronize the first blocks without the need to connect to the network or wait for the peers to send the beginning of the blockchain.

This file must be placed next to the configuration file (~/.ecoin/ecoin.conf).

Download bootstrap.dat.

Solo mining with the built-in CPU miner:

# Terminal 1: Start wallet or daemon
./ecoin-qt
# or: ./ecoind -daemon

# Terminal 2: Start miner
cd miner/ && sh build.sh
./cpuminer -o http://127.0.0.1:7474 -O ecoinrpc:<password> --coinbase-addr=<YOUR_ECOIN_ADDRESS>

See MINING and REWARDS for details.

ECOin is the native currency of the SolarNET.HuB ecosystem — a sustainable multilayer tool-artifact for data privacy and project networking.

Within the ecosystem, ECOin enables:

• Universal Basic Income (UBI) — Weekly ECOin allocations for ecosystem participants
• Solar Mining — PoW mining powered by solar panels via the SNH-KIT
• P2P Marketplace — Exchange goods and services priced in ECO
• Governance — Voting and participation in the 9-House governance system
