PURN possesses a devoted research and development group comprising experts from various reputable DLT projects. Their arduous efforts are aimed at creating novel functionalities, scalable solutions, and superior optimizations. Transitioning from Blake2b to Blake 3 showcases a remarkable acceleration in performance, efficiency, and serves as a deterrent against ASIC miners overpowering the network, thereby fostering opportunities for decentralized mining. Moreover, PURN will incorporate an unparalleled smart contract architecture and introduce PAIW, an innovative union of AI algorithms with Proof of Work mechanism.

HOW TO MINE
step 1

get the binaries or build from sources
https://github.com/PURN-NETWORK/PURN/releases/tag/1.0.0 (check releases)

step2

run and sync a node
Code:
./purnd --utxoindex

step3

when the node is synced create a wallet
Code:
./purnwallet create
note your seed phrase
Code:
./purnwallet dump-unencrypted-data

step4

run the wallet daemon (in a dedicated shell)
Code:
./purnt start-daemon
and request an address
Code:
./purnwallet new-address

step5

start mining
Code:
./purnminer --miningaddr=purn:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

for gpu mining - get the miner on github  https://github.com/PURN-NETWORK/PURN/releases/ (From wallet)
Code:
./purn-miner --mining-address purn:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
