Smoke by Cannacoin™: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cannabis Cash System
Official Whitepaper and Technical Announcement

in honor of https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=740903.0

Subject: [ANN] Smoke by Cannacoin™
Author: deusopus
Organization: cannacoin.org

1. Abstract
The global cannabis sector exhibits a paradox of rapid valuation growth and systemic financial exclusion. Due to discordant regulatory frameworks, stakeholders are frequently marginalized by traditional banking institutions, necessitating a reliance on suboptimal liquid-asset transactions¹. This paper introduces Smoke by Cannacoin™, a decentralized blockchain architecture employing a hybrid Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. Utilizing the Scrypt algorithm based on the Blackcoin 13.2 core, Smoke establishes a finite supply of 420,000,069 units.

2. Introduction
The historical utility of Cannabis sativa L. spans five millennia, yet contemporary legal friction—specifically the conflict between sub-national legalization and federal prohibition—has created a "banking desert" (Li, 1974; Bonnie and Whitebread, 1970).

Smoke by Cannacoin™ mitigates these risks by providing a trustless, peer-to-peer clearinghouse. By leveraging a hybrid consensus model, the network achieves robust security during its distribution phase (PoW) and transitions into a sustainable, low-latency settlement layer (PoS) (King and Nadal, 2012).

3. Technical Specifications

Algorithm: Scrypt (Hybrid PoW/PoS)
Target Spacing: 60 Seconds
Difficulty Retargeting: 120 Minutes
Coinbase Maturity: 100 blocks + 1 confirmation
Transaction Finality: 12 confirmations

3.1 Distribution Framework
The total supply (Stotal​) is defined as 420,000,069. A 5% genesis allocation (21,000,003 coins) is reserved for infrastructure development (40%), marketing (30%), and community grants (30%) (Cannacoin Community Foundation, 2025).

3.2 Transition to Proof-of-Stake
Upon reaching block 2,102,400, the network terminates PoW minting. Subsequent security is maintained by stakeholders:

[]

Stake Reward: 21 SMOKE per block
[] Minimum Stake Age: 8 Hours

• Maximum Stake Age: Unlimited
  

4. Theoretical Industry Applications
Note: The following features are conceptual as of March 2026.

4.1 Seed-to-Sale Provenance
We propose the integration of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) to serve as digital twins for physical batches. By appending cultivation metadata to the ledger, the system ensures transparency from germination to retail (Tapscott and Tapscott, 2016).

4.2 Cannabis-Collateralized Lending
Drawing inspiration from the Credito Emiliano model—which utilizes Parmigiano-Reggiano as loan collateral—Smoke proposes a decentralized custodial framework where physical inventory secures liquid capital (Law Library of Congress, 2024).

5. Conclusion
Smoke by Cannacoin™ represents a synthesis of cryptographic security and industry-specific utility. By addressing the liquidity constraints of the cannabis market through a transparent, decentralized ledger, the protocol provides a foundation for the next generation of regulated commerce.

4. Build Instructions from Source
The codebase is optimized for Unix-like systems (Linux/Debian).

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev automake pkg-config

libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils libboost-all-dev libminiupnpc-dev

libzmq3-dev libqt5gui5 libqt5core5a libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev

qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libqrencode-dev

Step 2: Clone & Compile

Code:

git clone https://github.com/cannacoin-official/smoke.git
cd smoke
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

5. Network Initialization
Upon execution, the node initiates the Initial Block Download (IBD).
• Proof-of-Work Phase: Utilizes Scrypt hashing¹ for secure initial distribution.
• Network Maturation: Full transition to Proof-of-Stake occurs at block 2,102,400.
• Operation: Launch smoke-qt for the GUI wallet or smoked -daemon for server environments.

6. Theoretical Frameworks
6.1 Seed-to-Sale Tracking: Integration of NFTs to log cultivation, harvest, and THC levels in a transparent ledger (Tapscott and Tapscott, 2016).
6.2 Cannabis Collateral: A proposed lending system where physical inventory secures Smoke-denominated loans, modeled after agricultural credit precedents (Law Library of Congress, 2024).

thank you. make sure you share your wallet address so i can send you some coin

Announcement:

SMOKE by Cannacoin can now be mined at the following pools:

LuckyDogPool: - https://luckydogpool.com

stratum+tcp://stratum.luckydogpool.com:7096 -u WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p c=SMOKE

and

Zalmex.Online - https://zalmex.online

stratum+tcp://zalmex.online:3433 -u WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p c=SMOKE

it seems that we have lost support from lucky dog pool as well as zalmex it could be a miscommunication or something but im not sure.

what should we do about that?

congratulations all. we just surpassed 1M blocks about 20 minutes ago!

cannacoin.org is down because i haven't paid the domain fees in a couple months

i should be able to take care of it soon as i am back to work after a time away

Advanced Implementation: Smoke by Cannacoin™ Stratum Infrastructure
High-Performance Scrypt Pool Configuration: Intermediate Level

1. Node Hardening (smoke.conf)
For intermediate deployments, we enable the Address Index and Transaction Index to allow for faster block validation and accurate payment processing.

Code:

# Network & Security
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
rpcport=23413
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=SMOKE_POOL_ADMIN
rpcpassword=SECURE_HEX_STRING_GENERATED_VIA_OPENSSL

# Indexing (Required for payment processors)
txindex=1
addressindex=1
# Speed up Initial Block Download (IBD)
dbcache=4000

2. Optimized Coin Definition (pool/coins/smoke.json)
This file maps the UNOMP stratum backend to the Smoke daemon. Ensure rewardRecipients is used for foundation or development fund tax if applicable.

Code:

{
    "name": "Smoke",
    "symbol": "SMOKE",
    "algorithm": "scrypt",
    "daemons": [
        {
            "host": "127.0.0.1",
            "port": 23413,
            "user": "SMOKE_POOL_ADMIN",
            "password": "SECURE_HEX_STRING_GENERATED_VIA_OPENSSL"
        }
    ],
    "payout": {
        "enabled": true,
        "percentage": 0.01,
        "paymentInterval": 3600,
        "recipient": "SRAz9FdB9MsmpvdmgQUXwzxFmjryCp5DHQ"
    }
}

3. Stratum Tuning (pool_configs/smoke.json)
This is where the performance is tuned. Variable Difficulty (Vardiff) is essential for handling a mix of CPU, GPU, and ASIC hardware.

Code:

"ports": {
    "3032": {
        "diff": 32, // Static start diff
        "varDiff": {
            "minDiff": 16,     // Prevents share flooding from low-end hardware
            "maxDiff": 8192,   // Caps diff to prevent high-end ASICs from stalling
            "targetTime": 15,  // Seconds between shares (Target 4 shares/min)
            "retargetTime": 60, // How often to recalculate client diff
            "variance": 0.3    // Allowed variance (30%) before retargeting
        }
    }
},
"banning": {
    "enabled": true,
    "time": 600,
    "invalidPercent": 50, // Ban clients submitting >50% invalid shares
    "checkThreshold": 500
}

4. Advanced Administration

• Redis Management: Ensure Redis is running on a high-speed SSD. Periodically flush stale share data to maintain latency.
  
• Payment Processing: Smoke uses standard sendmany RPC calls. Verify the pool wallet has sufficient matured balance before the payment cronjob triggers.
  
• Block Maturity: Smoke requires 100 blocks for coinbase maturity. Set your pool to wait for 110 confirmations to be safe.
  

Economic Milestones

• Reward Model: 50 SMOKE (PoW) | 21 SMOKE (PoS)
  
• Difficulty Readjustment: 120 Minutes
  
• PoW Threshold: Mining terminates at block 2,102,400.
