BricsCoin — Merge Mining (AuxPoW) is HERE
We're excited to announce that BricsCoin now supports Auxiliary Proof of Work (AuxPoW), enabling Bitcoin miners to mine BRICS simultaneously — at absolutely zero extra cost.
No new hardware. No extra electricity. The same SHA-256 work that secures Bitcoin now secures BricsCoin too.
What is Merge Mining?
Merge Mining lets miners submit their Bitcoin Proof of Work to the BricsCoin network as valid proof. Think of it like a postman delivering letters on his route who also picks up packages for another courier — same route, double the useful work.
If you're already mining Bitcoin, you can earn BRICS on top of your BTC rewards without changing anything about your setup.
Why Merge Mine BricsCoin?
Maximum Security By leveraging Bitcoin's massive hashrate, a 51% attack on BricsCoin becomes virtually impossible. Our chain benefits from the strongest PoW network in existence.
Zero Extra Cost Your existing Bitcoin mining operation already does the work. AuxPoW lets that same work count on both chains. No additional energy consumption, no additional hardware investment.
Full Independence BricsCoin maintains its own blockchain, its own rules, and its own consensus mechanism. Bitcoin doesn't control BricsCoin — it just helps secure it.
For Solo Miners:
Configure your Bitcoin mining software to include BricsCoin's AuxPoW header
Point your miner to a BricsCoin-compatible endpoint
Submit shares as usual — valid Bitcoin work automatically counts for BRICS
For Pool Operators:
Integrate AuxPoW block creation into your pool software
Fetch BricsCoin block templates via our API
Include the AuxPoW commitment in your Bitcoin coinbase transaction
Submit merged blocks to both networks
