Ring is a unique cryptocurrency with three dimensions of mining working symbiotically together.
Proof of Work uses our custom CPU-friendly hashing algorithm, Minotaur.
Hive Mining allows users to create on-chain dwarf agents who mine on their owner's behalf.
Finally, Proof of Play allows users to play games right within the wallet. Their gameplay directly secures the blockchain, while earning rewards.
Ring features provably the widest initial distribution of a cryptocurrency ever, paying UTXOs from a total of over 30 years of blockchain history.
Ring Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
The master
branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Ring Core.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
