Details
Name: NERVA
Ticker: XNV
Algorithm: Cryptonight Adaptive
Algorithm Type: PoW
Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm: LWMA
Block Time: 60 seconds
Maturity: 20 blocks
Launch Date: May 1, 2018
Coin Emission
Total Supply: ~18.4 million + tail emission
Block Reward: Started at 70 (decreases each block)
You can see the current block reward on this page:
https://freeboard.io/board/EV5-se
The % of coins emitted and the block reward over time:
Tail Emission
There is a fixed tail emission of approximately 0.3XNV per block after the main supply has been emitted.
Tail emission should be reached roughly 3 years after the launch date.
Pre-mine
Pre-mine: 180,000 XNV (~1%)*
*See the original thread for further details about the pre-mine and coin launch:

About NERVA
Quote from: the creator @angrywasp in the original announcement thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3464367.0
Cryptonight Adaptive algorithm
The algorithm is the most important part of this coin. For too long cryptocurrencies have been plagued by ASIC's centralizing hash power, NiceHash being used as a tool to attack blockchains and centralized hash rates on major pools forking chains and placing coins into the hands of big mining operations. NERVA aims to rectify this.
The idea is quite simple. Create a hash algorithm that changes automatically at regular intervals each time breaking support in ASICS, mining pools and GPU mining software. Where the only option left is solo mining with a daemon and wallet. ...
... This first implementation, while crude should make it difficult to adapt GPU miner and pool code to this algorithm. My ultimate aim is to further the development of crypto in the true spirit of crypto. Decentralized and easily accessible to everyone.
