Listing kit

Everything a mining calculator, pool directory, price tracker or exchange needs to list PCoin (PCN) — the chain facts, the live endpoints with their exact shapes, the pools, the market feed, the logos. Every number on this page is either a constant of the chain or read live from the linked API; nothing here is typed in by hand.

The coin

Name / tickerPCoin / PCN
What it isAn independent Layer-1 blockchain: its own genesis, network and UTXO set. A fork of Bitcoin Core v29.4 with RandomX proof-of-work and LWMA difficulty. Not a token on any other chain.
Proof-of-workRandomX, fixed key PCoin/RandomX/v1, light mode (~256 MiB). Hashed: the 80-byte block header. Miner names: randompcn (SRBMiner-Multi ≥ 3.5.6), rx/pcoin (stratum algo field). Block ids are still double-SHA256; only the PoW hash is RandomX.
Block time / reward600 s target · 50 PCN per block · halving every 210,000 blocks · 21,000,000 cap · coinbase maturity 100 blocks
DifficultyLWMA (N=60), retargets every block, since height 2800. Before that, Bitcoin's 2016-block retarget.

Network data — live

One call, no key, CORS open. Height, difficulty, supply and the block timestamp come straight from the index; index.stale is true when the index is behind the node, so a reader can refuse stale numbers instead of trusting them.

GET https://explorer.pc.am/api/status

{ "chain": { "height": 8603, "difficulty": 0.11962281, "supply_pcn": "430150.00000000",

Network hashrate (and the same difficulty/height) from the pool API, MiningCore-shaped:

Protocol: Monero-style stratum over raw TCP (login / job / submit / keepalived), no TLS, no registration; the payout address is the login. Solo mining needs no pool: the node ships a built-in miner (startmining). Miner integration notes: MINER-INTEGRATION.md.

Market data — live, no login

exchange.pc.am is a PCN/USDT limit-order book run by the project. Its public feed follows the CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko exchange specifications; every path also answers under /api/v1/….

Read the disclosure field. The house bots' fills are counted in volume and excluded from last_price; the feed says so on every response rather than leaving it to be discovered. The market is young and thin. price.pc.am is the project's reference rate used by its own services — it is not a traded price and should not be quoted as one. wPCN, a 1:1 wrapped form on BNB Smart Chain, trades on PancakeSwap (wPCN/USDT).
