Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work systems that favor the newest and most powerful hardware, RustChain's Proof-of-Antiquity consensus mechanism gives higher rewards to older, authentic vintage hardware. + +### Why should I care about RustChain? + +- **Preserve computing history**: Your old PowerPC G4 or Pentium 4 can mine productively +- **Environmental benefit**: Repurpose existing hardware instead of e-waste +- **Fair rewards**: Older hardware gets higher multipliers (up to 2.5ร—) +- **Accessible**: No expensive ASIC miners or GPU farms required + +### What does "Proof-of-Antiquity" mean? + +Proof-of-Antiquity (PoA) is RustChain's consensus mechanism that: +1. Authenticates your hardware using fingerprinting techniques +2. Detects emulation attempts +3. Rewards based on hardware age (older = higher multiplier) +4. Prevents gaming the system through emulation + +## Getting Started + +### How do I start mining? + +**Quick Start (Recommended):** +```bash +curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Scottcjn/Rustchain/main/install-miner.sh | bash +``` + +The installer auto-detects your system and sets everything up. See [Quick Start](README.md#-quick-start) in the README for details. + +### What hardware can I mine with? + +**Supported platforms:** +- Linux: Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, RHEL (x86_64, ppc64le, ppc) +- macOS: 12+ (Intel, Apple Silicon, PowerPC G3/G4/G5) +- IBM POWER8 systems +- Any x86_64 CPU + +**Best multipliers (highest rewards):** +- PowerPC G4 (2.5ร—) +- PowerPC G5 (2.0ร—) +- PowerPC G3 (1.8ร—) +- IBM POWER8 (1.5ร—) +- Pentium 4 (1.5ร—) + +### Do I need a special wallet? + +No external wallet is required initially. The miner uses a wallet name/ID you provide during installation. Your RTC balance is tracked on-chain by this wallet name. + +For trading wRTC on Solana, you'll need a Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, etc.). + +### How much can I earn? + +Base earnings: **0.12 RTC per epoch** (standard modern hardware) + +With multipliers: +- PowerPC G4: ~0.30 RTC/epoch (2.5ร— multiplier) +- Core 2 Duo: ~0.16 RTC/epoch (1.3ร— multiplier) +- Modern CPU: ~0.12 RTC/epoch (1.0ร— baseline) + +**Note:** Epoch timing varies. Multipliers decay 15%/year to prevent permanent advantages. + +## Technical Questions + +### How do I check my RTC balance? + +```bash +curl -sk "https://50.28.86.131/wallet/balance?miner_id=YOUR_WALLET_NAME" +``` + +Replace `YOUR_WALLET_NAME` with your miner's wallet name. + +### Why use `-sk` flags with curl? + +The RustChain node may use a self-signed SSL certificate. The `-sk` flags tell curl to skip certificate verification. This is safe for checking blockchain data. + +### How do I stop/start the miner? + +**Linux (systemd):** +```bash +systemctl --user stop rustchain-miner # Stop +systemctl --user start rustchain-miner # Start +systemctl --user status rustchain-miner # Check status +``` + +**macOS (launchd):** +```bash +launchctl stop com.rustchain.miner # Stop +launchctl start com.rustchain.miner # Start +launchctl list | grep rustchain # Check status +``` + +### Where are the miner logs? + +**Linux:** +```bash +journalctl --user -u rustchain-miner -f +``` + +**macOS:** +```bash +tail -f ~/.rustchain/miner.log +``` + +### How do I uninstall? + +```bash +curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Scottcjn/Rustchain/main/install-miner.sh | bash -s -- --uninstall +``` + +This removes the miner service, virtualenv, and all installed files. + +### What is RIP-PoA? + +RIP-PoA (RustChain Improvement Proposal - Proof of Antiquity) is the specification for hardware fingerprinting and emulation detection.

They're great for 24/7 mining due to low power consumption. + +### What about Docker/VMs? + +Mining in Docker containers or VMs may work but could trigger emulation detection since the hardware signatures differ from bare metal.
