Rusty Coin ($RUST)
Built for Resilience. Engineered in Rust. Public Testnet Coming July 2025.
1. The AnnouncementHello Bitcointalk,
Today, we are thrilled to introduce a new cryptocurrency built on the principles of security, fairness, and long-term vision:
Rusty Coin ($RUST).
Rusty Coin has been engineered from the ground up in the Rust programming language to create a provably robust and performant network. Our development has focused on creating a resilient hybrid consensus model and a fair economic system for all participants.
We are now approaching a major milestone. We are formally announcing that our
Public Testnet will launch in July 2025. In conjunction with the testnet, our
full codebase will be made open-source for complete public review and security auditing.
Our commitment is to a
100% fair launch for our mainnet, which will only be scheduled after a successful, secure, and community-vetted testnet phase. There will be no pre-mine, no ICO, and no treasury.

- The official Bug Bounty Program will commence.
- August/September 2025: Intensive community testing, network stabilization, and analysis of testnet performance to define the criteria for a secure mainnet launch.
Phase 2: Homestead (TBA - Post-Testnet)- Announce the official Mainnet launch date based on testnet success and security audits.
- Mainnet Genesis Block is mined.
- Release of official mainnet wallets and tools.
Phase 3 & 4: Forge & Metropolis (Post-Mainnet)- Progressive rollout of Masternode services (`OxideSend`, `FerrousShield`).
- Implementation of on-chain governance and future protocol upgrades.
Thank you for your interest. We are committed to a transparent and methodical launch process. Follow our channels for updates as we approach our testnet launch in July.
