🔥 EMBERCHAIN (EMBR) 🔥

Custom EVM Blockchain · Browser Mining · Privacy Pool

A new experimental Proof-of-Work EVM ecosystem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⚡ WHAT IS EMBERCHAIN? ⚡

Emberchain (EMBR) is a custom EVM-compatible blockchain built from the ground up.

Unlike traditional token deployments, Emberchain runs its own:

• Custom Proof-of-Work consensus
• EVM-compatible execution layer
• Native blockchain infrastructure
• Browser-based mining system
• Built-in privacy pool for shielded transactions

The goal of Emberchain is to combine the flexibility of smart contracts with optional privacy and an easy onboarding experience where anyone can participate directly from their browser.

The chain is live. Mining is open.

⛏ HOW TO MINE EMBERCHAIN ⛏

No GPU required. No miner software required. No pool setup required.

Anyone can participate:

• Visit:

https://emberchain.org

• Create or import an Emberchain wallet
• Open the mining dashboard
• Click "Start Mining"
  
  
• Your browser begins mining using a background WebWorker

The miner displays:

• Live hashrate
• Current mining status
• Best hash found
• Blocks discovered

Every browser can participate.

The more computing power contributed, the higher your chance of discovering blocks.

Current mining phase: SOLO MINING ONLY

Mining pool support will arrive as network participation grows.

━━━━━━━━ MINING ROADMAP ━━━━━━━━

🔥 PHASE 1 — BROWSER MINING (LIVE)

Emberchain begins with accessible browser-based mining.

No downloads.
No complicated configuration.
No specialized hardware.

The goal is a fair early distribution where anyone can participate.

As more miners join, difficulty automatically adjusts to maintain the target block time.


⚡ PHASE 2 — GPU MINING

As network difficulty increases, GPU miners will naturally enter.

Pool support will be introduced to allow miners to receive consistent payouts.

The Keccak256 algorithm is GPU compatible, allowing future mining expansion without changing the network.


🔒 PHASE 3 — PROOF OF STAKE (LONG TERM)

The long-term roadmap includes a transition toward Proof-of-Stake.

A future merge block may transition block production from miners to EMBR validators.

All mined EMBR remains valid and eligible for staking.

The goal:

• Fair initial distribution
• Community-driven growth
• Sustainable long-term security

Development Update #2 | July 16, 2026

[ANN][EMBR] Emberchain Wallet — Progress Update #[X]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Greetings Emberchain community,

We've been heads-down building and have a solid batch of improvements to share. Below is a full breakdown of everything shipped today, followed by what's on the immediate roadmap. As always, the chain is live, mining is open, and the exchange is running peer-to-peer.


✅ UPDATES SHIPPED TODAY

📒 Address Book — Save and label wallet addresses you send to regularly. Add contacts with a name, address, and optional notes. Access via the new "Address Book" page in the sidebar. Each contact has a one-click copy, direct send button, and full edit/delete support stored locally in your browser.

👥 Contact Picker on Transfer Page — When you have saved contacts, an "Address Book" button now appears on the Send page. Click it to pick a contact and auto-fill the recipient field — no more copy-pasting long hex addresses.

📱 QR Code / Receive Screen — A new QR icon sits next to your wallet address on the dashboard. Clicking it opens a modal with a scannable QR code of your address plus a copy button. Makes receiving EMBR on mobile or sharing your address much easier.

📈 EMBR/USD Price History Chart — New "Price Chart" tab on the Exchange page. Pulls every completed trade and uses CoinGecko's historical price API to calculate the implied EMBR/USD price at the time of each trade (ETH, SOL, BTC trades all normalized to USD; USDT trades use $1.00 directly). Displays as an interactive line chart with all-time high, all-time low, latest price, and total % change since first trade.

⛏️ Active Miners Counter — The dashboard now shows a live count of active miners. The server persists miner activity across restarts so the count is accurate even after a reboot.

🏆 Explorer Holder List — Cap Removed — The top holders list was previously limited to 20 addresses. That limit has been removed.

⚙️ Difficulty Display Fix — Block difficulty now displays in abbreviated human-readable format (e.g. 4.37B instead of an overflowing raw number) on both the dashboard and block explorer.

📜 Trade History Tab on Exchange — A dedicated "Trade History" tab on the Exchange page shows all fulfilled listings with per-currency average EMBR pricing.

🚪 Sidebar Eject — Proper Redirect On Mobile — Disconnecting your wallet from the sidebar now correctly redirects you back to the wallet setup screen.



🔜 COMING NEXT

💬 Telegram & Discord Group — Official community channels are being set up. Announcements, mining coordination, and exchange listings will all be accessible there. Links will be posted as soon as live.

🪙 ERC-20 Token Support — The chain's EVM layer is already running. Next step is full ERC-20 support so custom tokens can be deployed and tracked within the wallet — balances, transfers, and contract interaction.

🔐 Wallet Backup & Export Flow — A guided flow for exporting and backing up your private key and wallet credentials securely. Critical for anyone serious about long-term holdings.

🌐 Community App with EMBR Login (Partially On-Chain) — A Reddit/Discord-style community board where you log in with your EMBR wallet. Posts, reactions, and reputation are partially anchored on-chain. Think decentralized forum with social features — built for the Emberchain community first.

🔥 EMBERCHAIN — UPDATE #3
What's new since the last post

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ PROPORTIONAL SHARE POOL — NOW LIVE

Block rewards are no longer winner-takes-all.
Traditional PoW gives 100% of the block reward to whoever finds the winning nonce. Emberchain now splits it proportionally across every miner who did work that round. Small miners earn steadily. Big miners earn exactly what their hash rate deserves. Nobody takes a cut.

How it works:

• The mining template now returns two targets — target (full block) and shareTarget (64× easier)
• Every valid share hash you submit during a round is recorded against your address
• When any miner finds the winning block, the 5 EMBR reward is split proportionally by share count
• If you submitted 30 out of 60 total shares that round, you receive 2.5 EMBR — regardless of who found the block
• Zero pool fee. Every wei of the block reward goes to miners
• Payout breakdown per miner is stored on each block and visible in the explorer

What changed for external miners:

• One new endpoint: POST /api/mining/share — call it whenever your hash meets shareTarget
• That's it. The submit endpoint for winning blocks is unchanged

The updated Python script in the OP handles share submission automatically.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ SHARE POOL IS CHEAT-RESISTANT

A few things confirmed with automated tests before shipping:

• Wrong difficulty rejected — a share hash that only meets a lower difficulty than the current chain target is refused
• Stale work rejected — a header with the wrong parentHash or wrong block number is refused even if the hash is valid
• Duplicate nonces rejected — submitting the same nonce twice in a round earns exactly one share, not two
• Restarts don't reset the nonce set — the server persists submitted nonces to disk; you can't replay a nonce by timing a restart
• Shares survive restarts mid-round — if the server restarts before a block is found, your accumulated shares carry forward into the payout
• Dust is handled correctly — rounding remainder always goes to the last miner; total payouts always equal exactly 5 EMBR

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ P2P ESCROW — EXPANDED USDT SUPPORT

USDT is now accepted across all four major networks:

• USDT ERC-20 — Ethereum mainnet (was already supported)
• USDT TRC-20 — Tron network ← NEW
• USDT BEP-20 — BNB Chain ← NEW
• USDT Polygon — Polygon mainnet ← NEW

Sellers can specify which networks they accept. Buyers pick whichever chain suits them. Payment verification is handled on-chain by the node — no manual confirmation step.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ P2P ESCROW — RACE CONDITION PROTECTION

When a listing is live, multiple buyers can see it at the same time. Previously, two buyers could attempt to claim the same listing simultaneously and one would lose their payment window without warning.

This is now fixed:

• The moment a buyer clicks Reserve, the listing is locked exclusively to their address
• Other buyers see it as unavailable immediately — no race
• The reservation holds for 15 minutes, then expires and the listing reopens
• If the buyer doesn't pay in time, the seller's EMBR stays in escrow and the listing becomes available again
• Enforced at the chain level — the server cannot accidentally double-assign a reservation

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ CRYPTO ON-RAMP — BUY AND TRADE IMMEDIATELY

New users no longer need to already hold crypto to participate in the escrow exchange.

• A built-in on-ramp lets you purchase ETH, BTC, SOL, or USDT (any supported network) directly from the wallet interface
• Funds land in your external wallet within minutes
• From there, reserve a listing and pay — the full flow from zero crypto to holding EMBR is now in one place

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ WALLET BACKUP AND RESTORE

• Export your wallet as an encrypted keystore file (AES-256, password-protected)
• Re-import on any device — wrong password fails clearly, not silently
• Private key never leaves the browser unencrypted

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ BROWSER MINING — UPDATED STATS

• Live share count shown while mining — how many shares you've banked this round
• Live estimated payout % — your current cut of the block reward based on shares submitted so far
• Both update in real time as shares land

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

▌ COMPLETED

[✓] Keccak256 PoW with per-block difficulty adjustment
[✓] Browser-based WebWorker miner with live hash rate
[✓] EVM smart contract deployment and execution
[✓] Monero-style shielded pool (stealth, commitments, LSAG rings, key images)
[✓] P2P escrow exchange (ETH, BTC, SOL, USDT multi-chain)
[✓] 15-minute buyer reservation with race condition protection
[✓] USDT on Tron, BNB Chain, and Polygon ]
[✓] Built-in crypto on-ramp
[✓] MetaMask / EVM wallet RPC endpoint
[✓] Proportional share-based mining pool
[✓] Encrypted wallet backup and keystore restore

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Share pool is live. On-ramp is live. Buy crypto, get EMBR, start mining — all from one tab.

Developer Update #4

Forge Community Launch · Multi-Core Mining · Exchange Enhancements

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🔥 Forge Community Is Live · The Wallet Becomes The Hub 🔥

Hello Bitcointalk,

We're back with a substantial update.

Since our last announcement we've been heads-down building, and today we want to walk through everything that has shipped, as well as share where the project is headed.

The headline of this update is the Forge Community — a fully integrated social layer built directly into the EMBR wallet experience.

▌ WHAT'S NEW

🔥 Forge Community — Live Chat & Forum (FLAGSHIP)


This is the feature we've been most excited about.

Every EMBR wallet holder now has access to a real-time community space, accessible directly from the wallet sidebar — no separate account, no email, no sign-up.

Connect your wallet, and you're in.


💬 Live Chat

The chat room is live and persistent.

Messages are broadcast instantly over WebSockets to every connected user.

The channel stays active as long as someone is online — there's no polling delay and no refresh required.

Scroll up and you'll see the last 80 messages replayed when connecting, so you never walk into a cold room.


📖 Forum

Alongside live chat we've launched a threaded forum.

Users can:

• Create topics
• Discuss mining strategy
• Ask questions
• Share exchange tips
• Participate in community discussions

The voting system uses your wallet address as identity:

• One upvote or downvote per address per post
• Votes can be toggled or changed at any time
• Scores update live across all connected clients
• Nested comments update in real time

🔐 Identity & Privacy System

Privacy and user control were priorities.

Every participant has full control over how they appear:


Nickname

Set a display name up to 32 characters.

Your nickname appears across:

• Chat messages
• Forum posts
• Comments

Update it anytime and all connected clients see the change instantly.


Anon Fallback

If you choose not to set a nickname, you appear as:

Anon####

The identifier is deterministically generated from your wallet address, meaning the same wallet remains recognizable without revealing identity.


Address Shielding

Hover over any user's name to view their privacy setting:

• Public users display their wallet address
• Shielded users display ░░ SHIELDED ░░ with an eye-off indicator
  

You decide what information is visible.


All of this is backed by a server-side profile system, allowing settings to persist across devices and sessions.

The system is completely identity optional:

Participate anonymously or become a recognized community member — the choice is yours.




⛏ Multi-Core Browser Mining


Multi-core browser mining shipped in the last sprint and continues to perform well.

The EMBR wallet automatically launches:

• One Web Worker per logical CPU core
• Independent nonce ranges per worker
• Parallel mining across available CPU resources

Modern machines receive a significant throughput improvement.

Work templates are fetched centrally and distributed across cores.

The best result from any core triggers share submission.

Stale templates caused by newly discovered blocks are automatically detected, refreshed, and retried.




📊 Exchange Improvements


The marketplace received several quality-of-life upgrades:


Market Cap

Market capitalization is now displayed on the price history panel, calculated from the latest trade price against total circulating supply.


Listing Timestamps

Open listings now display creation timestamps so users can better evaluate market activity.


Sorting Controls

Users can sort listings by:

• Newest
• Oldest
• Highest Price
• Lowest Price

USD equivalents are pulled from CoinGecko with a 60-second cache for accurate pricing without excessive API requests.

▌ WHAT'S COMING

We're working through a prioritized backlog.

Here are the features closest to release:


📜 Trade History

Buyers and sellers will be able to review their complete transaction history:

• Every fulfilled listing
• Every payment
• Complete marketplace activity

🔒 Wallet PIN Protection

Optional PIN protection will prevent unauthorized access when a browser session is left open.

Features include:

• Session timeout
• PIN re-prompt

🛡 Buyer Protections

Improved marketplace edge-case handling.

Especially protecting buyers who have initiated reservations when sellers cancel mid-process.

Reservation states and related data will be handled gracefully.

⚔️ EMBRmon Mining Wars — Competitive Mining PvP Arena


EMBR is expanding beyond traditional mining.

We are building a gamified PvP experience where miners can battle using unique NFT creatures called EMBRmon.

EMBRmon Mining Wars combines three core elements:

• Mining Efficiency — Real mining performance contributes to your battle strength
  
• Strategy — Choosing the right moves, abilities, and timing determines the outcome
  
• Luck — Random cards, critical hits, events, and probability-based mechanics create exciting battles
  

The goal is to transform mining from a passive activity into an interactive competitive experience.


🔥 EMBRmon NFTs


Players will be able to mint unique EMBRmon NFTs — powerful digital creatures with their own elemental identities, abilities, and combat characteristics.

Inspired by classic monster battle games, EMBRmon will feature different types including:

• 🔥 Fire
• ⚡ Electric
• ❄️ Ice
• 🌱 Nature
• 🌑 Shadow
• And more

Each EMBRmon will have:

• Unique creature design
• Elemental type advantages and disadvantages
• Special attacks and abilities
• Combat characteristics
• Strategic strengths and weaknesses

Early community members will have opportunities to acquire EMBRmon NFTs through an early mint system.

Example placeholder structure:

• First 25 EMBRmon: Free mint
• Next 50 EMBRmon: 500 EMBR
• Next 75 EMBRmon: 1,000 EMBR
• Next 100 EMBRmon: 2,500 EMBR

(Mint pricing, supply, and mechanics are subject to refinement.)


⛏ Mining Efficiency Battle System


Each player enters a battle with a Mining Efficiency Score.

This score functions similarly to HP in a traditional RPG.

Example:

Player A:

Mining Efficiency: 175


Player B:

Mining Efficiency: 160


A player's real mining performance contributes to their starting battle efficiency.

However, the PvP battle itself exists as a separate game layer and does not modify actual blockchain mining.


Important:

EMBRmon battles will never affect:

• Real mining hash rate
• Block production
• Network security
• Consensus

The game rewards efficient miners while keeping the integrity of the blockchain untouched.


⚔️ Combat System


During battles, players take turns selecting actions with their EMBRmon.

Players can:

• Use creature attacks
• Activate special abilities
• Play randomly drawn battle cards
• Apply buffs and debuffs
• Defend against incoming attacks
• Use strategic combinations

Example abilities:

Fire Blast

Large damage attack with a chance of a critical hit.


Electric Surge

Medium damage attack with a chance to temporarily disable an opponent's ability.


Shield Protocol

Reduce incoming damage for a limited time.


Mining Boost

Temporarily improve battle efficiency recovery.


The outcome of battles is determined by a combination of preparation, decisions, efficiency, and probability.


📈 Dynamic Efficiency Recovery


Mining Efficiency can fluctuate during battles.

If a player's real mining efficiency improves during the match, their battle score may gradually recover.

However, recovery is limited.

Example:

Starting Efficiency:

175


Opponent attack:

175 → 90


Mining performance improves:

90 → 105 → 115


The player cannot simply return to full strength through mining improvements alone.

This ensures that combat decisions remain meaningful and prevents unlimited recovery.


🏆 Long-Term Vision


EMBRmon Mining Wars creates a new type of blockchain gaming experience.

A player does not win simply because they own the largest mining hardware.

Victory comes from:

• Mining efficiently
• Making smart strategic decisions
• Building a strong EMBRmon collection
• Understanding matchups and abilities
• Taking calculated risks

The vision is to combine Proof-of-Work mining with an esports-style competitive game where mining, strategy, and luck all play a role.



🏦 Onchain Savings


We're building a native savings mechanism for EMBR holders.

Users will be able to lock EMBR directly from their wallet and earn rewards over time — entirely onchain, without third parties or custodians.

Features:

• Open and close savings positions directly from the wallet
• Track rewards in real time
• Maintain full control of your funds
• Encourage long-term holding and reduce liquid supply

More details on rates, lock periods, and mechanics will be shared as development progresses.


📉 Progressive Halving


Bitcoin introduced the world to predictable supply reduction, but its four-year halving cycle creates large economic events that markets can anticipate.

EMBR takes a different approach.

The initial plan is a progressive halving schedule designed to reduce emissions quickly during early growth while slowing down as the ecosystem matures.


Example schedule:

• Genesis launch: Initial block reward
• 3 months after launch: First halving
• 6 months later: Second halving
• 12 months later: Third halving
• Every 24 months thereafter: Future halvings

This approach rewards early miners while gradually transitioning toward long-term sustainability.


🌊 Elastic Issuance & Adaptive Monetary Policy


Alongside progressive halving, EMBR will introduce an elastic issuance system.

Instead of relying on a permanently fixed emission schedule, the protocol will monitor network conditions and adjust issuance within predefined limits.


The goal is a self-balancing monetary system:

• Low activity periods → issuance can increase slightly to encourage participation and network growth
• Growing ecosystem → issuance gradually decreases as adoption increases
• High activity periods → reduced issuance and increased burn pressure can create a more deflationary environment

The protocol will consider factors such as:

• Transaction activity
• Network usage
• Miner participation
• Fee revenue
• Overall ecosystem health

The objective is not unlimited inflation or permanent deflation.

The objective is equilibrium.


🔥 Elastic Transaction Burn


EMBR will also introduce a dynamic transaction burn mechanism.

A portion of transaction fees will be permanently removed from circulation.

The burn rate will adjust based on network activity with the goal of balancing new issuance.


The long-term target:

Total EMBR burned trends toward matching total EMBR created over time.


During early growth:

• New issuance supports miners and ecosystem expansion
• Burn pressure remains lower

As adoption increases:

• Transaction activity increases
• Burn pressure increases
• Net issuance naturally approaches equilibrium

The result is a monetary system designed to adapt with the blockchain instead of relying on a fixed supply model.

▌ CLOSING THOUGHTS

Emberchain is being built piece by piece, without shortcuts.


The EMBR wallet is becoming the place where holders communicate, coordinate, and build together.

Not a third-party Discord server.

Not a temporary community.

A native ecosystem built directly into the wallet experience.


If you're mining or holding EMBR, we want to hear from you.

Jump into the Forge Community chat directly from your wallet.

No invite links.

No bot-gated entrance.

Just open your wallet and join the conversation.


More updates soon.

🔥 UPDATE #5 — JULY 2026

EmberSwap Full DEX Launch · wEMBR/ETH Pool Live · Bridge Active

Emberchain community,

This is the biggest update we've shipped since launch.

We've been heads down building and the results speak for themselves:

EmberSwap is now a full multi-token DEX on Base mainnet, the wEMBR/ETH liquidity pool is live and seeded, and every layer of the stack — chain, bridge, swap, mining — has been hardened.

Let's go through it.


I. EMBERSWAP DEX — NOW SUPPORTS ANY BASE TOKEN PAIR

The old SwapTab was a single-direction ETH ↔ wEMBR toggle.

That's gone.

EmberSwap is now a full Uniswap V2 DEX frontend, routing across any token pair on Base.

Token Selector

• Click either token slot to open the picker modal
• Pre-loaded catalog: ETH, wEMBR, USDC, USDT, DAI, cbBTC, AERO, WETH, cbETH
• Paste any contract address → UI fetches symbol, name, and decimals on-chain automatically
• Search by name, symbol, or address
• Quick-pick chips for the most common tokens

Smart Routing

• Tries 3 routes simultaneously: direct pair, via WETH, via wEMBR
• Picks the best output for you
• wEMBR routes get a 5% preference — when routing through wEMBR/ETH is within 5% of the best quote, we take it. This is how 0.25% of every qualifying swap flows to EMBR liquidity (we are the primary LP on the wEMBR/ETH pair, earning Uniswap's 0.3% LP fee on all wEMBR-routed trades)
• Route displayed in the quote card so you always know the path your swap takes

Decimal-Correct for All Assets

USDC and USDT use 6 decimals, cbBTC uses 8 — amounts parse and display correctly for every token in the catalog.

No more 18-decimal assumptions.

Approval Flow

• Automatic ERC-20 allowance check before each ERC-20 swap
• Prompts MetaMask approval only when needed, then proceeds without asking again until allowance is spent

Quote Card Displays

• Estimated output
• Route path (e.g. USDC → WETH → wEMBR)
• 0.25% fee note → EMBR liquidity
• Minimum received (after 0.5% slippage)
• Live ETH/ERC-20 balances for both token slots

II. wEMBR/ETH LIQUIDITY POOL — LIVE ON BASE MAINNET

The wEMBR/ETH trading pair is seeded and open.

Pair	wEMBR / ETH
DEX	Uniswap V2 on Base
Pair Contract	0xD7e6A5Dfdee7D141A036a5Af8C92Fe7ac20392a6
Opening Price	$0.02 per EMBR (at $3,500/ETH)
LP Holder	Protocol Treasury (Primary LP)

The pool is live.

You can trade wEMBR on Base right now using EmberSwap or any Uniswap V2-compatible interface.

Anyone can add liquidity through the Pool tab in the EmberSwap UI.

More LPs = deeper market = better prices for everyone.


III. POOL TAB — ADD & REMOVE LIQUIDITY

EmberSwap now has three tabs:

• Bridge
• Swap
• Pool

The Pool tab shows:

• Live wEMBR and ETH reserve depths
• Current price (wEMBR in ETH terms)
• Your LP token balance and pool share %
• Auto-computed paired amount when you type one side (pool ratio enforced)
• Warning when no pool exists (first depositor sets the price)
• One-click Max button to redeem your full LP position

Add Liquidity

Enter ETH → wEMBR field auto-fills to match pool ratio → approve wEMBR → confirm in MetaMask → receive LP tokens

Remove Liquidity

Enter LP amount (or hit Max) → preview shows exact ETH + wEMBR you receive → approve LP token → confirm → done

Both flows use 0.5% slippage tolerance and 20-minute deadlines.


IV. BRIDGE — PRODUCTION HARDENING

The EMBR ↔ wEMBR bridge has been running under real load.

Several robustness improvements shipped:

• Registration retry loop after EMBR confirmations
• Relayer now submits transactions internally instead of through public RPC
• withEvmLock() serializes critical EVM operations
• eth_getCode now correctly returns deployed bytecode

On-chain Contracts (Base Mainnet)

WrappedEMBR (wEMBR) on Base	0x9362587019Ea0e4ef90fbd981c615d4441D9D2c4
EmberchainBridge on Emberchain	0x9362587019ea0e4ef90fbd981c615d4441d9d2c4
Uniswap V2 Router	0x4752ba5dbc23f44d87826276bf6fd6b1c372ad24

V. MINING — STALE TEMPLATE PROTECTION

A fix shipped for stale mining templates.

• Templates are invalidated after every server restart
• Old work returns a 409 Stale Work response
• Browser miners automatically refresh and continue mining

This closes a potential fork vector where miners could submit valid proofs against different chain states.

Mining pool status: ACTIVE and accepting shares.


VI. CHAIN INFRASTRUCTURE

• PostgreSQL persistence for blocks, financial events and bridge nonces
• File-based fallback when PostgreSQL is unavailable
• EIP-2200 gas accounting fixes
• EthereumJS checkpoint depth improvements

VII. HOW TO GET INVOLVED

⛏ Mine EMBR

Open the wallet, create or import a wallet, go to the Mine tab.

its too hard to mine

[EmberChain]

It is a evm smart contract chain with optional shielded transactions.

There was no pre mine. I posted the Bitcoin talk post and mining started immediately after, fairly. Emberchain Destop Wallet has been released for Windows, Mac and Linux

https://github.com/RedPillPhil/Emberchain/releases

Working on finishing up the miner and node software.

Liquidity on Emberswap will be a major priority over the next 10 days. Bridge is live, EMBR can be bridged to Base and wrapped as wEMBR. We'll add some liquidity so we can have an actual on/off ramp for Ember without a centralized exchange.

Obviously, aside from building liquidity for the on/off ramp, our highest priority is completing the full node software so that anyone can run an EmberChain node on their own computer. This ensures the network remains online and fully decentralized regardless of whether the team's nodes are running.

The most fun update is that several members of the development team are currently developing a state-of-the-art monster-catching RPG built with RPG Maker, featuring NFT and blockchain integration, AI-powered NPCs that players can interact and communicate with, and MMO functionality.

Players will be able to explore a living universe where they can gather resources, craft items, and create their own structures and experiences within the RPG Maker world. The goal is to combine classic monster-catching RPG mechanics with modern Web3 technology, AI-driven interactions, and a player-driven ecosystem where the world continues to evolve.

Change to a better server, this one breaks down for half the day.

📢 EmberChain Development Update

Join our official Telegram community:
👉 https://t.me/emberchainorg

Big updates are on the way! 🚀

We've identified a few server issues that will be resolved tonight.

This situation is exactly why we're pushing to release the full node software publicly as soon as possible. Once the node software is available, the network will no longer rely on a single server, making EmberChain far more decentralized and resilient.

Current Timeline:
• ✅ Server expected back online tonight
• ✅ Public node software release expected within the next few days

Thank you all for your patience and continued support. This is just the beginning. 🔥

The android app is smooth

Change to a better server, this one breaks down for half the day.

Exactly what we're working through right now.

The network should be back online within approximately 12–15 hours, with the underlying issues expected to be fully resolved within 24–48 hours.

Ironically, we were in the process of syncing a secondary node to serve as a backup in case the primary node ever went offline. Unfortunately, the primary node went down before the synchronization was complete, leaving us without a fully synced backup.

This will be corrected as part of the current work. Going forward, we'll have redundant infrastructure in place, and the upcoming public node software release will further improve the network's resilience and decentralization.

Thanks for your patience while we get everything back online.Server is back up.
