RATATOSKR CORE (RATR)
A masternode chain that remembers what made these networks matter

Mainnet live since 2026-06-01 00:00 UTC



Quick facts

  • Symbol: RATR
  • Algorithm: Yespower (N=2048, R=32) — CPU mining, ASIC-resistant
  • Block time: 60 seconds
  • Block reward: 50 RATR at launch (halving to zero, Bitcoin-style schedule)
  • Reward split: 60% miner / 30% masternode / 10% treasury post-block-25,000 (90/0/10 in PoW-only window before MN activation), governance-adjustable via SPORK_25 within 20-40% MN bounds
  • Masternode collateral: 7,500 RATR (1× vote weight)
  • EvoNode collateral: 30,000 RATR (4× vote weight, post-v1.1)
  • Total supply: 100,000,000 RATR hard cap, no tail emission
  • Premine: None
  • Insider allocation: None
  • Founder allocation: None (10-block founder phase mined ~T-7 for chain-seeding utility; ~450 RATR, transparent + auditable post-launch)
  • Treasury accumulation: on-chain via per-block coinbase output, auditable per-block
  • Bridge: native cross-chain to Alephium (wRATR contracts LIVE, officially listed on alephium/token-list)
  • Codebase: Dash 22 fork (DIP3 deterministic masternodes, LLMQ, ChainLocks)



Technical features

  • LLMQ-based deterministic masternodes (DIP3) with ChainLocks for tier-2 finality once LLMQ_50_60 quorums form post-launch
  • Governance-adjustable reward split via SPORK_25 — masternode share is on-chain adjustable within hard-floored 20-40% bounds; outside the range, the spork value is rejected by consensus
  • On-chain treasury via coinbase output — every block's coinbase includes a treasury vout (10% of subsidy, ~5 RATR per block at launch); cumulative treasury is reconstructable from any block-explorer or full-node scan
  • Yespower CPU mining — no ASICs, no GPU advantage, no insider mining hardware
  • InstantSend (Dash-derived) once LLMQ_50_60 quorums form (~T+5 days at 15 ready MNs)
  • Native cross-chain bridge to Alephium — wRATR contracts on Alephium G0, lock-and-mint architecture, fully operational at launch



Launch milestones (delivered)

  • Mainnet genesis: 2026-06-01 00:00 UTC
  • Treasury keygen ceremony: 2026-05-22, signed message + paper backups + dual-storage
  • Final RC lockdown: 2026-05-25
  • Founder-phase 10 blocks: mined privately at T-7 for chain seeding, transparent post-launch
  • Pool stack proven: bulletproof-gate validation on testnet 2026-05-16
  • wRATR contracts deployed: 2026-05-29
  • wRATR listed on alephium/token-list: 2026-05-31 (PR #556)
  • Public repo + source code: 2026-05-31
  • US-Central pool brought online: 2026-06-01 (Dallas TX, geo-redundant to the EU primary)



Wallet downloads

Block explorer

Serving mainnet from genesis. eIquidus-based, full historical chain.



Mining

Algorithm: Yespower (N=2048, R=32) — designed for CPU mining; no ASIC or GPU advantage.

EnchantedForestDeFi-operated pools — geo-redundant endpoints live now:

EU (primary):

  • Pool homepage: pool.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com
  • PPLNS: stratum+tcp://pool.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com:3035 — 1.5% fee
  • SOLO: stratum+tcp://pool.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com:3036 — 2.0% fee

US Central (Dallas TX):

  • Pool homepage: pool-us.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com
  • PPLNS: stratum+tcp://pool-us.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com:3035 — 1.5% fee
  • SOLO: stratum+tcp://pool-us.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com:3036 — 2.0% fee

Pick the endpoint closest to your hardware. Both regions accept the same RATR wallet addresses; payouts go to whatever address you set as your worker username.

CPU recommended: any modern x86_64 with hardware AES support. Yespower scales well on consumer CPUs.

Compatible miner: SRBMiner-MULTI — validated against EnchantedForestDeFi Pool stratum during testnet (note: cpuminer-opt direct-solo mining is not supported — RATR uses DIP3 special coinbase transactions per Dash 22 lineage; mining via MiningCore-based stratum required).

Independent pool operators welcome from T+7 to T+14. EnchantedForestDeFi-operated pools run first through the initial bring-up window; external operators can onboard after that. Pool spec + setup runbook in the GitHub docs: doc/pool-operator-spec.md



Masternodes

  • Regular MN collateral: 7,500 RATR (1× vote weight)
  • EvoNode collateral: 30,000 RATR (4× vote weight, available post-v1.1)
  • Activation height: MN payments activate at block 25,000 (~T+17d at 60-second blocks)
  • Small quorums activate: block 7,500 (~T+5d), need ≥15 ENABLED MNs for first DKG
  • Payment: 30% of block reward (15 RATR pre-halving), paid via deterministic round-robin selection
  • Hosting: any Linux VPS with public IPv4, ~2 GB RAM, ~20 GB disk recommended
  • Setup guide: doc/masternode-setup.md

DIP3 protx flows (register / update_service / revoke) are inherited from Dash 22 and work as expected.



Bridge

Ratatoskr ships with a native cross-chain bridge to Alephium. The wRATR contracts are live on Alephium mainnet (Group 0, officially listed on alephium/token-list as of PR #556).

Bridge architecture: lock-and-mint, with on-chain custody on the RATR side and Alephium-native wrapped-token contracts on the ALPH side. The bridge daemon + relayer are operational from launch; first wRATR mint will execute on the first deposit.


wRATR contract ID (Alephium G0):
Code:
deb34ae392cd9dd8262b19deb2da3adb9a15015052d8b024a0506fd917d50700

The bridge is a technical feature, not an endorsement of any specific external ecosystem. RATR users may use it or not. The chain stands on its own utility.



Community + resources




Roadmap

  • T-0 (2026-06-01): Mainnet genesis. Yespower mining open via EnchantedForestDeFi-operated pools (EU + US Central). ✅
  • T+5d (~2026-06-06): LLMQ_50_60 quorums form at block 7,500 (need ≥15 ENABLED MNs). InstantSend + ChainLocks activate.
  • T+7-14d (~2026-06-08 to 06-15): External pool operators welcome to onboard. Reach out via Discord for pool spec walkthrough.
  • T+17d (~2026-06-18): Block 25,000 — MN payments activate. Coinbase shifts from 90/0/10 to 60/30/10 split.
  • T+30d (~2026-07-01): Aggregator listings target window — CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, LiveCoinWatch, nodes24.online.
  • T+60d (~2026-07-31): Mac wallet build target (pending Apple Developer signing infrastructure).
  • T+90d (~2026-08-30): First treasury governance proposal cycle — community votes on initial budget allocations.

The chain is designed to outlast any specific roadmap. Once governance is active, decisions about features and direction are protocol-mediated, not founder-mediated.



Disclaimers

This is an announcement of a new chain, not financial or investment advice. RATR is a new asset with no trading history. Do your own research before allocating any capital. Run a masternode only if you understand what masternode operations entail, including key management, network availability requirements, and the financial risk of holding collateral. The bridge is a technical capability, not a financial recommendation about any other chain.

The operator does not guarantee returns. The operator does not promise listings. The operator does not promise price action. The operator promises to ship the chain described in this thread on the date stated, with the properties stated, under the open governance model stated, and to keep the code open and the treasury auditable.

Reserved — Pools, masternodes, bridge

Live status of EnchantedForestDeFi-operated pool endpoints (EU + US Central), masternode quorum readiness for first DKG, bridge daemon health and wRATR mint/burn activity, and onboarding pointers for independent pool operators.

Updated as infrastructure events occur.
🎉 Update — RATR Masternode hosting now available via Nodes24

Pleased to announce that Nodes24.online (operated by Kroky) has added RATR as a supported masternode hosting coin. RATR joins their existing roster alongside PIVX, Syscoin, BLOCX, Maximus, and others.

Direct link: https://nodes24.online/supported-coins/RATR/

What you need:
• 7,500 RATR collateral (1 vote, regular MN)
• $1.75 / month hosting fee
• A few minutes to follow their guided setup

Non-custodial — Nodes24 runs the daemon + infrastructure; users retain custody of collateral + keys in their own wallet. No counterparty risk on the operator side.

This is a major convenience win for anyone holding 7,500+ RATR who wants to participate in the masternode tier without operating their own VPS. The strength of the masternode tier compounds with every additional ENABLED node — ChainLocks finality, governance voting weight, and network resilience all scale with the count.

Thanks to the Nodes24 team for the integration work.

Windows wallet not work, just crash after loading.

Pool not work.

Ratatoskrd.exe - works fine.

QT wallet works only if you don't have or not create wallet - after wallet created qt wallet stop works and just crash without any error.

Ok, found on your github how to workaround qt wallet crash.
But us and eu pool still not work.

[2026-06-02 11:52:13] Pool unexpectedly closed the connection [yespower]v1.0.1 shipped — Windows Qt wallet create-crash fixed.

https://github.com/EnchantedForestDeFi/ratatoskr/releases/tag/v1.0.1

Direct .exe:
https[Suspicious link removed]

If you'd rather not wait for a Windows wallet at all, the web wallet
works the same and skips the Qt path entirely:
https://wallet.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com (https://wallet.ratatoskr.enchantedforestdefi.com/)

GPG verification:
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 50B8E0E4EADA2FF29B1DE68F7A33CFF563BB2E0A
gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

Separately — v1.0.2 follows in 24-48h to fix a masternode-payment
timing bug (see earlier pin). If you're planning to set up a MN now,
please wait for v1.0.2.

Thanks for the bug report.

v1.0.1 released — Windows Qt wallet hotfix

https://github.com/EnchantedForestDeFi/ratatoskr/releases/tag/v1.0.1

Fixes a crash some Windows users hit when creating a new wallet via the GUI. Linux + macOS Qt wallets unaffected by this issue.

Direct Windows installer:


Verification:
Code:
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 50B8E0E4EADA2FF29B1DE68F7A33CFF563BB2E0A
gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

v1.0.2 follows in 24-48h — will roll up this Qt fix together with a masternode-payment timing fix discovered post-launch. If you're planning to set up a masternode now, please wait for v1.0.2.

Thanks to BoozyTalking and Kroky (nodes24) for the bug reports that made this fix possible in 24h.
