VelCoin (VLC)
Independent Proof-of-Work Blockchain Protocol Built From Scratch
Project Status: Early-Stage Mainnet (Reference Node – Expanding to Multi-Node)
---
OVERVIEWVelCoin (VLC) is a self-developed blockchain protocol implemented from first principles in Python.
The objective is to build a sovereign Proof-of-Work system without relying on existing blockchain frameworks.
Protocol characteristics:
• SHA256 Proof-of-Work
• 60-second target block time
• Protocol-defined maximum supply target: 1,000,000,000 VLC
• JSON-based ledger state management
• REST-based node interface
• Nonce replay protection
• Transparent block explorer
This release functions as a reference implementation.
Distributed networking and cryptographic hardening are under active development.

CURRENT ARCHITECTURE• SHA256 PoW
• 60-second target block time
• JSON ledger state
• REST API
• Block explorer
• Replay protection
Network model:
VelCoin currently operates as a reference node.
P2P capabilities and multi-node consensus are planned for subsequent releases.
