A coin your
CPU mines.

VOXEL is mined from the terminal with any computer. Every 60 seconds a round closes, and every miner in it gets the same cut.

Each round is a block. The top of the chunk is the last 36 rounds, read live from the network: blue where people mined it, pale where nobody did.

One share
gets you in.

Your CPU hashes the round's work until a hash lands under the target. That is a share. The target adjusts to every machine, so a laptop and a workstation each find one about every 20 seconds.

Same cut,
every miner.

A round is split equally between every wallet that found a share. An old laptop and a farm of a hundred machines on one wallet each get one part.

The Builder
checks in.

At a random moment every one to three hours, mining pauses and the Builder draws a four-digit code in blocks. A person types it back and mining carries on. Scripts with nobody watching stall.

Half of it
in 30 days.

50,000,000 VOXEL at most. Half is released in the first 30 days, then the reward per round halves every 30 days. A round nobody mines releases nothing.

The pickaxe
pays 1.5×.

The only thing for sale. Spend mined VOXEL on a pickaxe and every round you mine pays one and a half parts. Its price is burned and the round stays the same size, so your part grows and the supply does not.

First, sign in on this page with your wallet. A free message, no gas.

Then install the miner: npm i -g voxelrh-miner

Save your key: voxel login

Finally voxel mine, and every round you are in pays your cut.

How long will you mine?

—VOXEL

Hours × 60 rounds × — per round, split with the 1 miner(s) online now plus you. An estimate from this minute, not a promise: it falls when more people mine and at every halving.

Leave my CPU two threads to mine.

Run voxel mine --threads 2. Fewer threads, same cut per round.

Answer the Builder from my phone.

Sign in here on your phone and type the four digits. Mining resumes on your computer.

Buy a pickaxe with mined VOXEL.

5,000 VOXEL burned once, then 1.5 parts in every round you mine.

Mine from three wallets at home.

Three is the most one network can use, and each needs a transaction on Robinhood Chain.

Free, no password: sign one message with your wallet to get an API key, then mine from any terminal.

Signing is free. It sends no transaction and moves no funds.

Before you dig.

SafetyIs the miner safe?

Yes. The CLI only computes SHA-256 hashes and talks to the VOXEL server with your API key. It never asks for a private key or seed phrase and cannot move funds. It is plain JavaScript on npm (voxelrh-miner), four files you can read.

GasDoes sign-in cost gas?

No. Signing in is a message signature that proves you own the wallet. No transaction is sent and nothing is spent.

SpeedFaster PC, more VOXEL?

Not per round. Difficulty adjusts so each miner finds about one share every 20 seconds, and one share is a full cut. The only way to get more than one part is a pickaxe.

BuilderWhat is the Builder?

A human check. At a random moment every one to three hours mining pauses and a four-digit code is drawn in blocks. Type it back in the terminal or on this page. Three wrong answers draw a new code.

FarmsCan farms take it all?

Rounds are split equally between wallets, so a hundred machines on one wallet still get one part. A network can use at most three wallets, each wallet needs real activity on Robinhood Chain, and the Builder stops miners nobody is watching.

WithdrawWhen can I withdraw?

Balances are kept in the VOXEL ledger while mining runs. Withdrawals to your wallet open when the VOXEL token is live on Robinhood Chain; this site shows it first. Mining uses your own electricity and nothing is guaranteed.
