ReSatoshi
Hello. ReSatoshi is an independent SHA-256d Proof-of-Work blockchain based on Bitcoin Core 31.0.
ReSatoshi is not affiliated with Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin, or the Bitcoin Core project.
The Bitcoin Core code is kept as close to upstream as practical. Beyond the changes required for an independent network, ReSatoshi adds three connected consensus rules:
- A spendable UTXO expires 5,256,000 blocks after its creation—approximately 100 years at the 10-minute target interval.
- Its value is credited to the Recycle Pool.
- Miners may claim up to 1 additional coin per block, limited by the available pool balance.
A UTXO can still be spent normally in its expiration block. Spending it—including through a self-transfer—creates a new UTXO and restarts the expiration period from the block in which the new transaction is confirmed.
Recycle rewards redistribute previously expired value. They do not create supply beyond the scheduled base subsidy.
Specifications - SHA-256d PoW · 10-minute target · ASERT (2-day half-life)
- 50-coin base subsidy · Halving every 210,000 blocks
- Recycle reward: maximum 1 coin per block · No halving
- No premine or spendable genesis allocation
- No inherited Bitcoin balances or UTXO set
- Independent genesis and network identity · P2P port 19333
- At the time of posting: height 0 · Block 1 not yet mined
Maintenance ReSatoshi intends to track upstream Bitcoin Core development. Applicable security fixes will be reviewed, adapted where necessary, tested, and incorporated while preserving ReSatoshi’s independent consensus rules.
Software A simple Windows application includes a full node, wallet and CPU miner. Mining begins only after synchronization and an explicit user action.
SHA-256d is not ASIC-resistant. CPU mining may become uncompetitive if more efficient mining hardware joins the network.

Windows SmartScreen may display an “Unknown publisher” warning. Please verify the SHA-256 checksum published with the release.
Some inherited interface labels still display “BTC.” On this network, they refer only to native ReSatoshi coins. They are not Bitcoin and cannot be transferred through the Bitcoin network.
ReSatoshi is experimental software with no guaranteed value, liquidity, security or mining profitability. Back up your wallet securely and use the software at your own risk.
Block 1 is still waiting. Who will mine it? AI disclosure: I used AI assistance to translate, edit and technically review my original Korean draft. I reviewed the final text before publication.
