⚡ ZapChain ⚡  
The Proof-of-Work Layer for the Open Web
 



► 100% PoW | No Premine | No Dev Fees | Miner-Focused  

ZapChain is a 100% Proof-of-Work blockchain designed as an open data layer for communities.
Every forum, blog, and mini-site is written forever on-chain, secured by miners — with no premine, no dev fees, and no admin control.



🔥 Key Principles

  • No Premine — 0 coins reserved for team or insiders
  • No Dev Fees — 100% of block rewards go to miners
  • No Admin Control — fully decentralized, immutable chain
  • Miner-Powered — miners secure the network and keep the system alive
  • Open Web Vision — build forums, blogs, and mini-sites directly on the chain



⚡ Why ZapChain?

ZapChain is built on the simple belief:  
Proof-of-Work + Open Web = True Decentralization.

No premines. No hidden taxes. No dev fund siphons.  
Every coin is mined. Every block is earned.



🔨 Mining

Details (algo, block reward, supply, parameters) will be shared on launch.  
Fair launch. No instamine. 100% transparent.

⚡ Update ⚡

The team is currently working on the tokenomics of ZapChain. Our goal is to design a system that keeps the chain alive for the long run — with scarcity, sustainability, and incentives for miners.

As part of this, we’re introducing a random bonus block system: every block will have a small chance of turning into a Zappy Block ⚡ — a rare block that gives a much higher reward than normal. For example, every block could have a 1% chance of giving a 100× reward.

Zappy Blocks will add excitement for miners and ensure that the chain stays rewarding well into the future.

⚡ Vision ⚡

Why are we creating ZapChain?

Because Proof-of-Work is the foundation of true decentralization. While every other EVM is turning into PoS or private chains, none of them provide the fairness and security that PoW brings.

Our goal is to build a PoW community united under one flag — ZAP. Every miner, every block, secured by real work. 🔨

Next, we want to push beyond mining and create real utility: an Open Web powered by blockchain tech. Forums, blogs, and communities that live forever — censorship-resistant and free.

PoW is the real thing for a truly decentralized open web. And ZapChain will prove it. ⚡

Nice ethos, pure PoW and no premine/dev fees.
If forums/blogs live on-chain, how do you keep chain size sane over time, block size/target, pruning, or a DA layer?
What PoW algorithm and target block time are you launching with, and is mining aimed at GPUs or do you expect ASICs?
With no admins, what's the anti-spam/abuse model for posts, fee market only, per-post PoW, or something else?

How  do some people have images in their signatures yet the rules say "Images not allowed" ?

Good questions, thanks for raising them. Let us clarify a few points:  

1. Chain Size / Storage  
We are designing ZapChain as an open data layer. Not every type of content will live fully on-chain (images/videos can be referenced via IPFS or similar). On-chain data will be text, metadata, and hashes, which keeps block size reasonable.

2. Algorithm & Block Time  
ZapChain will launch on Ethash with a 12.5 second block time. Ethash is already well-supported by the mining ecosystem, including both GPUs and ASICs.

3. Anti-Spam / Abuse  
Every action on-chain (post, comment, etc.) costs a transaction fee. This ensures spam has a direct cost.

⚡ ZapChain — 100% Fair Proof-of-Work ⚡
ZapChain was created for PoW enthusiasts and the community. To guarantee true fairness, the team made sacrifices:

No premineNo dev feesNo hidden funding
This means ZapChain operates without any built-in funding. Like other pure PoW coins (TrumPoW, WART, etc.), the project will rely on community donations to support its growth.

⚡ ZapChain belongs to the community — together we can make it great! ⚡

⚡ ZapChain — 24H Mainnet Recap ⚡
100% fair launch — 1st block mined by Rplant Pool, 2nd by GTPool.After block 67, an issue was discovered. The team investigated immediately and released client v2.0.0.Since v2.0.0, the chain has been operating smoothly without issues.Current block height: ~9,000.4 pools now support ZapChain: Rplant, GTPool, ICMiners, CoolPool.Network hashrate continues to grow — nearing 0.5 TH/s.
⚡ Stay tuned — this is only the beginning! ⚡

📢 ZapChain v2.0.0 Released 🚀
Download: ZapChain v2.0.0 (https://github.com/ZapChainPoW/go-zap/releases/tag/z2.0.0)

⚡ Consensus update: up to 2 uncles allowed  
💰 Rewards unchanged: 0.10 ZAP (uncles = 0 payout)  

✅ Blocks 1–308 remain valid — this is NOT a chain relaunch.  
⚠️ Mandatory upgrade for all nodes, miners & pools!


--- Originally posted on September 15, 2025, 19:06:20 before merged ---
📢 ZapChain Consensus Update Incoming

A new node client release is being published in the next few moments.
⚠️ All miners, pools, and node operators are required to update.

This update changes consensus rules around block validation — running an old client will cause your node to fall out of sync once the change activates.

✅ Please be ready to upgrade as soon as the release drops.
We will share the download link and full details shortly.

Do we have plans for next stages and the like? Like, is the goal to increase the hash rate, get to more exchanges, the like? There's not a lot of information on the discord.
