Premine 20% !!
You could have mined 80% and left 20%
Do you guys really believe people will fall fall your greed?

We understand the concern about the 20% premine — it’s a fair question and one we want to be very clear about.

🔹 In the early days of crypto, many projects could rely on donations or volunteer contributions. But today, building a serious Proof-of-Work Layer 1 requires real funding for:

Exchange listings (DEX + CEX)
Liquidity provision so trading can actually function
Development & audits (security can’t be compromised)
Ecosystem grants & community programs to bootstrap adoption
Marketing & partnerships so the chain doesn’t just launch and then die silently

🔹 Without a premine, many PoW forks in the past simply collapsed — miners may secure the chain, but without liquidity, integrations, and development, the network cannot survive.

🔹 The premine is fixed, transparent, and one-time. 80% of supply is still mineable by the community, with no dev fees, no hidden taxes, and no inflation beyond the 10M cap. That’s very different from projects with unlimited supply or perpetual taxes.

So, the premine isn’t about greed — it’s about ensuring PowLayer has the resources to actually grow, get adopted, and not repeat the mistakes of unfunded PoW forks that faded into obscurity.

⚡ Fair mining + Transparent funding = Sustainability ⚡
