Hexis

Chain 60006

The ergon.

Ergon is Greek. It means the work. Stake still picks who writes the block. This page searches for one hash. A guess does not spend an XMSS leaf, and it does not use the validator key. Chain 60006.

Paid address

The address is inside the hash. Changing it later does not keep the answer.

Waiting.

Algorithm Keccak-256. Difficulty appears after the chain answers.

One ergon is paid in the block being written, and only once. The first four years pay 30 HEXIS to the finder and 6 to the validator who includes it. The prize is cut about in half every four years. A block with no ergon mints nothing.

Paid to this address

Enter an address. Paid erga are listed by the block that created them.

Who is paid, and when

A block is written about every 10 seconds. Stake chooses the validator who may write it. The validator is not paid for an empty block. When the block includes an ergon, the finder receives 30 HEXIS and that validator receives 6. Those amounts last the first four years, then fall by about half every four years. The payment is created in that block. It is not a second transfer later, and the same ergon cannot be paid again. The block number is its record.

A signed transaction is separate. Gas used, times the base fee, is burned. That part is destroyed. The tip goes to the fee recipient, which is the validator’s payee. The tip is not part of the 30 or the 6.

The work

The algorithm is Keccak-256. The hash covers the chain id, the slot, the parent block, the payout address, and a nonce. The address sits inside the hash, so it cannot be changed after a guess is found. Difficulty starts at 262,144. If erga land too easily, the next window gets harder. If blocks include none, it gets easier. One change can at most double the work, or cut it in half. More searchers do not mint more coins.

An address may search for 6 hours in a UTC day. The person check is the same one the wallet uses, and it is required before the first guess. Many tabs share those 6 hours. A new address starts a new 6 hours. When the time is gone, that address waits until the next UTC day.

This page uses one processor core. A phone is slower. A desktop is faster. A graphics card does not run this page. The command-line program uses the other cores of the computer. It is still not a graphics-card miner. After the person check, copy the search pass and run ergon.py:

python ergon.py --address HEX... --pass PASTE

The wallet button asks the Chrome, Brave, or Firefox extension for its address. It does not ask the wallet to sign.
