How to mine NACRNACR uses pearlhash, the same work as Pearl. With merge mining you keep your full PRL reward and earn NACR on top, with no extra power and no extra hardware.
1. Get a NACR address (starts with nacr1):
https://nacre.network/wallet/2. Pick one of the pools below3. Use a recent pearlhash miner, built after Pearl's rank-128 soft fork: SRBMiner 3.7.2+, PeakMiner 2.18.0+, WildRig 0.51.3+, ForgeMiner 1.8.5+, or alpha-miner 1.8.6+ on AlphaPool.

Launch notes- Genesis on 11 Oct 2026. The chain started at a very low difficulty, and the retarget is capped at x2 per 100 blocks, so blocks came fast during the first hours while difficulty caught up with the hashrate. It settled on the 120 s target and has stayed there since.
- No premine, no presale, no ICO. Genesis block has no reward, as anyone can check on the explorer.
- Block reward 10 NACR: 9.7 to the miner, 0.3 to the public development fund, enforced by consensus until the first halving (block 1,050,000). Dev fund address: nacr1pzn5xu9p68yx9qj2ug5yegcvu55z0c850qzmqjpjqymsgczege06qfa6vuf
- 21,000,000 NACR max supply, halving every 1,050,000 blocks.
ExchangeNo exchange listing yet. We chose a fair mining launch first, so miners get their coins before any trading. A first listing is in the works and will be announced here and in our official channels only. Ignore anyone offering listings, OTC or "early access" in private messages: the team never DMs first.
