Vertcoin (VTC) is a decentralized Proof-of-Work cryptocurrency launched in 2014 that champions ASIC-resistance to preserve mining decentralization. It uses a dynamic Lyra2REv3 algorithm that routinely changes to thwart specialized hardware, ensuring anyone with a GPU can participate in securing the network.
Created by a community-led team of anonymous developers who sought to maintain Bitcoin-like security while eliminating ASIC mining centralization.
Its commitment to ASIC-resistance through regular algorithm tweaks keeps mining open to hobbyists and small-scale operators, preserving decentralization and resisting industrial mining pools.
Secured by Lyra2REv3 PoW hashing, which regularly updates algorithm parameters via soft forks to disrupt ASIC development; verified by a global network of GPU miners and community checkpoints.
Provides a fair, decentralized cryptocurrency for everyday use.
Regularly updated PoW algorithm, community checkpoints, and active commitment to decentralization.
As an open-source project with no corporate backing, major Vertcoin holders are long-term community miners and early adopters running GPU farms.
