A live, proof-of-work blockchain built around native quantum-resistant ownership.




🔷 WHAT IS VOIDCOIN?

VoidCoin is a SHA256d proof-of-work cryptocurrency with native quantum-resistant address support. While most cryptocurrencies remain vulnerable to future quantum computing attacks against their underlying signature schemes, VoidCoin introduces P2QR (Pay-to-Quantum-Resistant) addresses natively at the protocol level — giving holders a path to quantum-safe custody without waiting for a hard fork.

Quote
"When quantum computers arrive, VoidCoin holders are safe. Are you?"

🔷 ADDRESS TYPES

The VoidCoin Core wallet GUI exposes two receive address formats, both backed by the same quantum-resistant key material:

  • vqr1... — Native quantum-resistant P2QR address ⚛️
  • 3... — Wrapped P2SH address, for mining pool / legacy software compatibility

vqr1... addresses use a post-quantum signature scheme designed to remain secure even against an adversary with access to a cryptographically-relevant quantum computer — a property traditional ECDSA-based addresses (used by Bitcoin and most other chains) do not have.

Legacy P2PKH (V...) addresses remain supported at the protocol and RPC level for compatibility, but are intentionally not offered in the wallet's Receive tab. This is a deliberate design choice to steer users toward quantum-resistant addresses by default.



🔷 GENESIS BLOCK

🔷 NO DEV FUND — FULL TRANSPARENCY

VoidCoin Core was forked from Kvanta5-Core. During initial mainnet bootstrap, the following consensus-affecting change was made prior to any blocks being mined:

The inherited codebase reserved block 1 as a special "dev fund" block, requiring its coinbase transaction to contain exactly 21 hardcoded outputs totaling 21,000,000 VOID, with normal mining beginning only at block 2.

This allocation was completely removed before mainnet launch. As a result:

  • Block 1 is a normal proof-of-work block, mined like every other block.
  • The standard 50 VOID block subsidy applies starting from block 1, with the usual halving schedule.
  • There is no dev fund, no team allocation, and no pre-mined balance anywhere in VoidCoin's supply. All 231,000,000 VOID will be distributed exclusively through mining.

This change affects
Code:
src/validation.cpp
(block 1 coinbase validation and subsidy calculation) and
Code:
src/node/miner.cpp
(block template construction), and is reflected from the very first commit that produced VoidCoin's genesis block onward. Anyone auditing the chain from genesis will see block 1 as an ordinary 50 VOID coinbase with no special-cased outputs — fully verifiable on-chain and in the source history.



🔷 MINING

VoidCoin uses SHA256d — compatible with any standard SHA256d miner including CGMiner, BFGMiner, and CPUMiner-Multi.

Code:
stratum+tcp://<pool-address>:<port>
Username: your VOID address
Password: x
    Both legacy (
V.../3...) and quantum-resistant (vqr1...) addresses can be used as the mining username, depending on pool support.



🔷 BLOCK EXPLORER

https://explorer.void-coin.net/

A purpose-built explorer for VoidCoin, indexing directly from a live VoidCoin Core node:

  • Real-time block and transaction feed
  • Block detail pages with difficulty, nonce, merkle root, and reward
  • Per-transaction input/output breakdown
  • Address lookup with balance and history
  • Rich list
  • Miners leaderboard — blocks grouped by coinbase tag, showing which pool or solo miner found each block

🔷 QUICK START (WINDOWS)

[list=1]
  • Download VoidCoin-1.0.2-Windows-Qt-x86_64.zip
  • Extract and run voidcoin-qt.exe
  • Create %APPDATA%\VoidCoin\voidcoin.conf with:
Code:
addnode=46.7.7.113:7777
    [list=1]
    • Restart wallet — it will sync automatically



    🔷 QUICK START (LINUX)

    Code:
    tar -xzf VoidCoin-1.0.2-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
    cd VoidCoin-1.0.2-Linux
    ./voidcoind -daemon -addnode=46.7.7.113:7777
    ./voidcoin-cli getblockchaininfo



    🔷 BUILDING FROM SOURCE

    VoidCoin Core builds with the standard Bitcoin Core CMake toolchain:

    Code:
    cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DWITH_ZMQ=ON -DBUILD_GUI=OFF
    cmake --build build -j$(nproc)

    To build the Qt GUI wallet, set
    Code:
    -DBUILD_GUI=ON
    instead.
