Earn PCN

Four ways to earn, and every one of them is checked by machine — by the blockchain, by the exchange's own ledger, or by the service you paid. There is nothing to screenshot, no form to argue over, and no decision made on a hunch.

1 · Bring someone to the exchange Live now

500 PCN per person

Share your personal link. When the person who follows it opens an account on exchange.pc.am, funds it and buys PCN, you are paid.

  1. Sign in at exchange.pc.am with your PCoin account — the same one you use at market.pc.am. If you do not have one, creating it is part of signing in.
  2. Press the gold button in the top right. That is your personal link and it does not change.
  3. They open your link and create an account. You are credited with the introduction the moment they first click, not when they sign up — so it still counts if they come back a week later. If they had already arrived through someone else's link, that first link keeps them.
  4. They deposit at least $50 and buy PCN with it. Both are required. A deposit with no purchase does not count, and neither does buying with PCN they already had.
  5. Wait 14 days. Everything is re-checked at the end of that period.
  6. 500 PCN appears in your exchange balance. Spend it there straight away, or withdraw it once your balance is over the $30 withdrawal minimum — two introductions clear that on their own.

The rules. One payment per person you introduce. You cannot introduce yourself, and accounts sharing a payment method are checked by a person before anything is paid. The pool is 5,000 PCN — ten payments; when it is gone the programme stops until it is topped up, and it pays in the order people qualify.

2 · Run a mining pool that is not ours Live now

500 PCN per pool

Almost all PCoin mining goes through one pool, and that pool is ours. That is not healthy for the network and we would rather pay to fix it than pretend otherwise.

  1. Run a PCoin mining pool. Any pool software that speaks Stratum and can build PCoin blocks. If you would rather not write one, use ours — it is the same software we run in production, published under the same licence with nothing held back: Running a PCoin pool. You host it, you run it, you keep the fees you charge.
  2. Attract at least 5 miners. Five separate payout addresses. That is what the chain shows and what we count — we cannot tell a person from a machine and we do not pretend to.
  3. Be active across the month. We look at the last 30 days and need to have seen your pool finding blocks on at least 7 separate days in that window. One lucky block paying six addresses is not five miners; you do not have to have been running for the whole month.
  4. Tell us it exists — in the PCoin chat or by opening an issue on GitHub. Say where the pool is and where you would like to be paid. We have to ask: every address in a block belongs to one of your miners, so we cannot work out yours from the chain, and guessing would pay the wrong person.
  5. We check it on the blockchain. A pool pays its miners inside the block it finds, so we count how many separate addresses your pool has paid over those 30 days. We need no access to your server, your miner list, or anything else you would reasonably not want to give us.
  6. We pay you 500 PCN to the address you gave us.

The rules. Paid once per pool. Your pool must be genuinely independent — a pool we do not run, and not a relay pointing at ours. Running our pool software is fine and encouraged; it is running our instance that is not a second pool. Miners reach you with SRBMiner-Multi (--algorithm randompcn --pool your.host:3333), which needs nothing from us and no special build. We tell you what we counted. If we say no, you get the number we saw and why.

3 · Spend PCN at a PCoin service Live now

10% back up to 50 PCN a month

Use PCN for what it is actually for, and some of it comes back to you.

  1. Pay with PCN at @MyWebsiteBuilderBot. It gives you your own PCN address to pay to.
  2. Your payment is credited as normal once it has three confirmations.
  3. 10% is added on top, at the same service. Pay 100 PCN worth of credit and another 10 PCN worth arrives in the same balance.
  4. There is nothing to claim. It happens by itself. You do not need to register, ask, or tell us anything.

The rules. Up to 50 PCN back per person per month. The 10% is credit at the service you paid — it is not sent to your wallet, because the service holds no PCN address of yours to send it to. It is worked out from what you were actually credited, at the rate you were credited at, so a later price move cannot change it. It applies to payments made from 16 September 2026 onward.

4 · Bring someone to aicontrol.pc.am Coming soon

100 PCN per person · they get $1

The same idea as programme 1, but for a service rather than the exchange: bring somebody who actually spends. Both of you are paid — they get $1 of credit just for signing up through your link.

  1. Share your aicontrol referral link. It comes from aicontrol.pc.am, not from here.
  2. They sign up through it and get $1 of credit immediately. No spending required for their side of it.
  3. They top up at least $20. Card or crypto through the payment provider, and it has to complete — a started payment is not a finished one.
  4. You are credited 100 PCN. Once the programme's 3,000 PCN pool is spent, it keeps running and pays $2 of credit instead, so the offer never quietly disappears.
  5. How it is checked: aicontrol's own record of what they actually paid. Nothing to screenshot, nothing to claim.

The rules. One payment per person you introduce, and you cannot introduce yourself. Spending is what counts, not signing up — the $20 must have completed. PCN you earn there shows beside your dollar balance and can be converted to credit at the published rate, or withdrawn to your own pc1q… address with no minimum; withdrawals are sent by hand. This programme is built and run by the aicontrol team; it is listed here so every way to earn PCN is in one place.

What is not on this list, and why

We do not pay for app store reviews, ratings or installs — Google prohibits it and it would put the app at risk. We do not pay for posts on Reddit, which prohibits incentivised posting. And we do not pay for followers, group members, stars or likes. Those are the easiest things in the world to buy, and buying them would tell us nothing true about PCoin and tell you even less.

What you are being paid in

PCN is the coin of an independent blockchain that is about six weeks old. Please be clear about what that means before taking part.

Questions

How do I know you paid? Every payment we make is a transaction on a public blockchain. Look it up at explorer.pc.am. Credit given at a service shows in that service's own history.

Can I do more than one? Yes. They are separate and do not affect each other.

What if you say no? You get told what was checked and what the result was. If a number is wrong, say so and we will look again.

Where do I ask? The PCoin chat, or docs.pc.am for how everything works underneath.
