DisclosureI am the creator of Brisvia.
Brisvia is an independent, open-source, one-person project. It has no ICO, presale, private allocation, founder allocation or developer tax.
Launch dateBrisvia mainnet launches publicly on August 1, 2026 at 15:00 UTC.The genesis block contains no spendable reward. As part of the fair-launch rules, block 1 cannot be accepted before an initial 120-second launch guard has elapsed, so the first valid mining work is expected shortly after 15:02 UTC. This applies equally to everyone.
What is Brisvia?Brisvia is an open-source Proof-of-Work cryptocurrency designed to make mining accessible with ordinary computers.
It is built directly from Bitcoin Core v30.2 and replaces Bitcoin's SHA-256 mining algorithm with RandomX, an algorithm designed around general-purpose CPUs.
You do not need an ASIC or a specialized mining rig to participate.
Brisvia uses ASERT for difficulty adjustment and follows a transparent, publicly verifiable launch with no spendable coins reserved for the project.

The genesis timestamp is the public launch time:
August 1, 2026 at 15:00 UTC. The genesis block contains no spendable reward.
Source code and reproducible buildsAll Brisvia software is open-source, in separate public repositories:
• Core node:
github.com/brisvia/brisvia• Desktop application:
github.com/brisvia/brisvia-desktop• Command-line miner:
github.com/brisvia/brisvia-miner• Brisvia XMRig:
github.com/brisvia/xmrig-brisvia• Integration documentation:
brisvia.com/integration/Each repository includes its own build instructions, license and release information. Release assets should be verified against the SHA-256 checksums published with the corresponding GitHub Release.
Three ways to mineBrisvia offers three official miners, all downloadable from
brisvia.com/downloads/ — direct from our own hosting, with GitHub as a mirror. Every build publishes its SHA-256, and the Windows builds are Authenticode-signed.
•
Brisvia Desktop (v1.1.3) — wallet, full node and CPU miner in a graphical interface. Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon) and Linux (AppImage and .deb). The simplest graphical option, with no command-line configuration required. You can install it now, create your wallet and back up your 12 recovery words before launch; mining controls unlock automatically at the public launch time.
•
Brisvia Miner, command line (v1.0.1) — a headless CPU miner for Linux servers, a VPS or Windows. Mines SOLO (the block reward goes straight to your address) or on the pool (PPLNS). Configurable with command-line flags or a config.json file, plus a --help command. The Windows executable is Authenticode-signed, and the published Linux and Windows builds are reproducible from the tagged source. For people comfortable with a terminal.
•
Brisvia XMRig (v1.0.1) — a Brisvia build of the well-known XMRig, optimized for high-performance CPU mining and advanced controls. Standard upstream XMRig is not compatible, because Brisvia uses a Bitcoin-style 80-byte header and a different nonce position; this dedicated build is required.
SOLO mining and the official poolUsers can participate in two ways:
•
SOLO mining: Mine independently instead of sharing rewards through PPLNS. If your submitted work finds a valid block, the coinbase reward is paid directly to your configured Brisvia address. Depending on the miner, work may come from your own local node or from the official SOLO endpoint.
•
Official pool (PPLNS): Mine together with other participants and share rewards proportionally. 0% pool fee, CPU mining through RandomX, with public accounting and status information.
Mining endpoints (TLS, opening at launch):
• Native SOLO: solo.brisvia.com:3334
• Native pool (PPLNS): pool.brisvia.com:3333
• Brisvia XMRig SOLO: solo.brisvia.com:3335
• Brisvia XMRig pool (PPLNS): solo.brisvia.com:3336
Brisvia Desktop and the command-line miner use the native SOLO/pool protocol; Brisvia XMRig uses its own SOLO and pool endpoints. The solo.brisvia.com:3336 hostname is intentional: port 3335 selects XMRig SOLO, while port 3336 routes Brisvia XMRig to the PPLNS pool through the dedicated adapter. Do not point XMRig at pool.brisvia.com:3333, which speaks Brisvia's native protocol.
All public mining endpoints use TLS, and all mining is based on Brisvia's RandomX implementation. "rx/brva" is the algorithm identifier used by the official Brisvia XMRig build. The mining services require only a public Brisvia address for payout identification; they never require your recovery phrase, wallet password or private keys.
The official pool is scheduled to open once its launch-time safety checks pass. If a required check fails, it stays temporarily closed while the independent network keeps operating. The Brisvia network does not depend on the official pool and can continue through independent SOLO miners and external pools.
Public testnet resultsDuring the public testnet,
64 distinct mining identities were observed participating in network testing.
Testnet participants helped test:
• CPU mining
• Wallet creation and restoration
• SOLO mining
• Pool mining
• Network synchronization
• Block propagation
• Difficulty adjustment
• Builds and mining workflows on Windows, macOS and Linux
Testnet coins have no value and do not carry over to mainnet.
Why RandomX?RandomX is designed around general-purpose processors. Brisvia uses RandomX to lower the hardware barrier and allow participation without requiring specialized ASIC mining equipment.
Mining rewards are never guaranteed. Results depend on network difficulty, processing power, uptime, SOLO or pool mode, and whether valid blocks are found.
Network independenceBrisvia's consensus protocol does not require the official pool or any single project-operated server. Participants can:
• Run their own validating full nodes
• Connect directly to other peers
• Mine independently
• Use mining pools
• Verify blocks and transactions locally
• Review the consensus rules
• Compile the source code themselves
The project provides initial public seed nodes to help new installations discover peers, but those nodes are not intended to control the network.
Address format and network accessMainnet Bech32 addresses begin with brv1. Testnet addresses and testnet coins are not valid on mainnet. The public explorer switches to mainnet at launch and may remain temporarily unavailable if its safety checks have not completed.
Security noticeNobody from Brisvia will ever ask for your:
• 12 recovery words
• Private keys
• Wallet password
• Remote access to your computer
Never run mining software that asks for your recovery phrase or private key. Miners require only a public brv1... payout address.
Do not trust wallet downloads, pools, support accounts or websites unless they are linked directly from
brisvia.com. The official downloads page and the versioned GitHub Releases publish SHA-256 checksums for the distributed files; Windows executables are also Authenticode-signed. Verify the checksum before running a downloaded file.
What Brisvia is not• It is not an investment.
• There is currently no established price, exchange or liquidity.
• There is no guarantee that BRVA will ever have monetary value.
• There is no promise of mining profitability.
• Mining does not guarantee rewards.
• It is experimental software maintained as a one-person project.
• Users should not risk money or equipment they cannot afford to lose.
