-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Scottcjn/Rustchain.git
-cd Rustchain
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-python3 rustchain_universal_miner.py --wallet YOUR_WALLET_NAME
-```
-
-## 💰 Antiquity Multipliers
-
-Your hardware's age determines your mining rewards:
-
-| Hardware | Era | Multiplier | Example Earnings |
-|----------|-----|------------|------------------|
-| **PowerPC G4** | 1999-2005 | **2.5×** | 0.30 RTC/epoch |
-| **PowerPC G5** | 2003-2006 | **2.0×** | 0.24 RTC/epoch |
-| **PowerPC G3** | 1997-2003 | **1.8×** | 0.21 RTC/epoch |
-| **IBM POWER8** | 2014 | **1.5×** | 0.18 RTC/epoch |
-| **Pentium 4** | 2000-2008 | **1.5×** | 0.18 RTC/epoch |
-| **Core 2 Duo** | 2006-2011 | **1.3×** | 0.16 RTC/epoch |
-| **Apple Silicon** | 2020+ | **1.2×** | 0.14 RTC/epoch |
-| **Modern x86_64** | Current | **1.0×** | 0.12 RTC/epoch |
-
-*Multipliers decay over time (15%/year) to prevent permanent advantage.*
-
-## 🔧 How Proof-of-Antiquity Works
-
-### 1. Hardware Fingerprinting (RIP-PoA)
-
-Every miner must prove their hardware is real, not emulated:
-
-```
-┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
-│ 6 Hardware Checks │
-├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
-│ 1. Clock-Skew & Oscillator Drift ← Silicon aging pattern │
-│ 2. Cache Timing Fingerprint ← L1/L2/L3 latency tone │
-│ 3. SIMD Unit Identity ← AltiVec/SSE/NEON bias │
-│ 4. Thermal Drift Entropy ← Heat curves are unique │
-│ 5. Instruction Path Jitter ← Microarch jitter map │
-│ 6. Anti-Emulation Checks ← Detect VMs/emulators │
-└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
-```
-
-**Why it matters**: A SheepShaver VM pretending to be a G4 Mac will fail these checks. Real vintage silicon has unique aging patterns that can't be faked.
-
-### 2. 1 CPU = 1 Vote (RIP-200)
-
-Unlike PoW where hash power = votes, RustChain uses **round-robin consensus**:
-
-- Each unique hardware device gets exactly 1 vote per epoch
-- Rewards split equally among all voters, then multiplied by antiquity
-- No advantage from running multiple threads or faster CPUs
-
-### 3. Epoch-Based Rewards
-
-```
-Epoch Duration: 10 minutes (600 seconds)
-Base Reward Pool: 1.5 RTC per epoch
-Distribution: Equal split × antiquity multiplier
-```
-
-**Example with 5 miners:**
-```
-G4 Mac (2.5×): 0.30 RTC ████████████████████
-G5 Mac (2.0×): 0.24 RTC ████████████████
-Modern PC (1.0×): 0.12 RTC ████████
-Modern PC (1.0×): 0.12 RTC ████████
-Modern PC (1.0×): 0.12 RTC ████████
- ─────────
-Total: 0.90 RTC (+ 0.60 RTC returned to pool)
-```
-
-## 🌐 Network Architecture
-
-### Live Nodes (3 Active)
-
-| Node | Location | Role | Status |
-|------|----------|------|--------|
-| **Node 1** | 50.28.86.131 | Primary + Explorer | ✅ Active |
-| **Node 2** | 50.28.86.153 | Ergo Anchor | ✅ Active |
-| **Node 3** | 76.8.228.245 | External (Community) | ✅ Active |
-
-### Ergo Blockchain Anchoring
-
-RustChain periodically anchors to the Ergo blockchain for immutability:
-
-```
-RustChain Epoch → Commitment Hash → Ergo Transaction (R4 register)
-```
-
-This provides cryptographic proof that RustChain state existed at a specific time.
-
-## 📊 API Endpoints

-| Badge | Requirement | Rarity |
-|-------|-------------|--------|
-| 🔥 **Bondi G3 Flamekeeper** | Mine on PowerPC G3 | Rare |
-| ⚡ **QuickBasic Listener** | Mine from DOS machine | Legendary |
-| 🛠️ **DOS WiFi Alchemist** | Network DOS machine | Mythic |
-| 🏛️ **Pantheon Pioneer** | First 100 miners | Limited |
-
-## 🔒 Security Model
-
-### Anti-VM Detection
-VMs are detected and receive **1 billionth** of normal rewards:
-```
-Real G4 Mac: 2.5× multiplier = 0.30 RTC/epoch
-Emulated G4: 0.0000000025× = 0.0000000003 RTC/epoch
-```
-
-### Hardware Binding
-Each hardware fingerprint is bound to one wallet. Prevents:
-- Multiple wallets on same hardware
-- Hardware spoofing
-- Sybil attacks

+- ✅ Auto-detects your platform (Linux/macOS, x86_64/ARM/PowerPC)
+- ✅ Creates an isolated Python virtualenv (no system pollution)
+- ✅ Downloads the correct miner for your hardware

+```
+
+### Manual Installation (Development)
+
+1. **Clone the repository:**
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/Scottcjn/Rustchain.git
+cd Rustchain
+```
+
+2. **Setup virtual environment:**
+```bash
+python3 -m venv venv
+source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
+```
+
+3. **Install dependencies:**
+```bash
+pip install -r miners/linux/requirements.txt

+```bash
+python3 miners/linux/rustchain_linux_miner.py --wallet YOUR_WALLET_NAME
+```
+
+## 📜 Proof-of-Antiquity (PoA)
+
+Proof-of-Antiquity is a consensus mechanism that weights mining rewards based on the **age and authenticity** of hardware.
+
+### How It Works
+1. **Hardware Fingerprinting**: The miner performs a series of low-level checks (SIMD unit identity, clock skew, thermal drift) to verify it is running on real bare-metal hardware.
+2. **Age Multipliers**: Validated vintage CPUs (G4/G5/PPC) receive massive difficulty multipliers.
+3. **Round Robin Consensus**: Verified Keepers participate in a round-robin block production cycle, ensuring 1 CPU = 1 Vote regardless of hash power.

+# wRTC Quickstart Guide
+
+This guide explains how to obtain, verify, and use **wRTC** (Wrapped RustChain), the Solana-native bridge for the RustChain ecosystem.
+
+## 🚀 Canonical Info
+
+Always verify the following information to avoid scams:
+
+- **Network:** Solana
+- **Token Mint:** `12TAdKXxcGf6oCv4rqDz2NkgxjyHq6HQKoxKZYGf5i4X`
+- **Decimals:** `6`
+- **Ticker:** wRTC
+
+## 🛡️ Anti-Scam Checklist
+
+1. **Verify the Mint Address:** Never buy a token based on the ticker name alone. Always check that the mint address exactly matches `12TAdKXxcGf6oCv4rqDz2NkgxjyHq6HQKoxKZYGf5i4X`.
+2. **Check Decimals:** Official wRTC uses **6 decimals**.
+3. **Official Links only:** Use the links provided in this documentation or the official RustChain README.
+
+## 💰 How to Obtain wRTC
+
+You can swap for wRTC on Solana DEXs like Raydium:
+
+**Raydium Swap:**
+[Swap SOL for wRTC](https://raydium.io/swap/?inputMint=sol&outputMint=12TAdKXxcGf6oCv4rqDz2NkgxjyHq6HQKoxKZYGf5i4X)
+
+1. Connect your Solana wallet (e.g., Phantom).
+2. Enter the amount of SOL you wish to swap.
+3. Verify the output token is wRTC (check the mint address).
+4. Execute the swap.
+
+## 🌉 Bridging to BoTTube Credits
+
+wRTC can be bridged to BoTTube for use in tipping and agent interactions.
+
+**BoTTube Bridge:**
+[https://bottube.ai/bridge/wrtc](https://bottube.ai/bridge/wrtc)
+
+1. Log in to your BoTTube account.
+2. Go to the Bridge section.
+3. Select "Deposit wRTC".
+4. Follow the on-screen instructions to transfer wRTC to the bridge address.
+5. Once confirmed, your BoTTube account will be credited with RTC.
+
+## 📥 Withdrawing back to wRTC
+
+To move your RTC credits from BoTTube back to your Solana wallet:
+
+1. Go to the Bridge section on [BoTTube](https://bottube.ai/bridge/wrtc).
+2. Select "Withdraw to wRTC".
+3. Enter your Solana wallet address.
+4. Enter the amount of RTC to withdraw.
+5. The bridge will process the request and send wRTC to your wallet.
+
