[ANN] Blockle v2 Relaunch – New Chain Live as of May 3, 2025!
Greetings everyone,
I’m excited to announce that **Blockle** has officially relaunched its blockchain! After careful development and testing, we’ve rolled out a brand-new network (“v2 fork”) with the following highlights:
[ul]
- Live Date: May 3, 2025 (fork at Block 30)
- Block Time: 15 seconds
- Difficulty Retarget: Every 120 blocks (~30 minutes) for smoother adjustments
- Total Supply: 21 000 000 BLK
- Premine: None – truly fair launch!
- Consensus: SHA-256 Proof-of-Work
[/ul]

## Why Blockle?
Blockle was designed to be the **slowest Fair Launch** in crypto, giving everyone an equal shot. With faster blocks (15 s) and a 30-minute retarget window, you’ll experience:
[ul]
- Low orphan rates and predictable confirmations
- Stable difficulty adjustments that resist hash-rate whipping
- A truly decentralized, permissionless mining environment
[/ul]
## Getting Started
1. **Download Binaries** (no build required):
`curl -L
https://github.com/Blocklechain/binaries/blockle-binaries.tar.gz -o blockle-binaries.tar.gz`
`tar -xzf blockle-binaries.tar.gz && cd blockle-binaries`
2. **Run a Node**:
`./blockled -daemon`
3. **Check Sync Status**:
`./blockle-cli getblockchaininfo`
4. **GUI Wallet**:
Launch `blockle-qt` from the same folder.
Your first 101 generated blocks will mature in ~25 minutes—mine them to an address of your choice:
```bash
ADDR=$(./blockle-cli getnewaddress)
./blockle-cli generatetoaddress 101 $ADDR
