</Bandwidth-Backed Digital Currency>
The world's first DAG-based ledger that rewards real network infrastructure. KnexCoin uses Proof-of-Bandwidth (PoB) with VRF-selected challengers, checkpointed Bandwidth Scores, and deterministic finality to create a truly decentralized, scalable, and auditable cryptocurrency.
A creates a send block, debiting balance and referencing recipient B.B creates a receive block, crediting balance by referencing A's send block hash.O(1) time without waiting for network-wide blocks.Features
KnexCoin reimagines blockchain from the ground up, combining bandwidth verification with economic incentives to create a truly decentralized network.
Validators are rewarded based on actual network throughput. No wasted energy, no plutocracy—just real infrastructure contributions.
Bandwidth subsidization eliminates fees entirely. Microtransactions and IoT payments become economically viable at any scale.
6-layer security: Sybil resistance, VRF challenger selection, 100% slashing for spoofing/double-voting, diversity constraints, checkpoint determinism, and real-time anomaly detection.
Hybrid TCP/UDP transport layer enables massive throughput without sacrificing decentralization or security.
Time-weighted voting prevents whale dominance. Every participant has a meaningful voice in protocol decisions.
REST and gRPC APIs, comprehensive documentation, and testnet faucets make building on KnexCoin straightforward.
Technology
A revolutionary incentive mechanism that rewards actual network infrastructure rather than energy consumption or capital concentration.
Continuous DAG ledger with 5-minute checkpoint intervals. Deterministic finality with Merkle-anchored BS snapshots.
k=7 challengers (default) from diverse geographic/AS locations verify bandwidth using VRF selection—impossible to game or spoof.
BS(v) = BS_scale × F_T(v) × U(v) × S(v) × D(v) — throughput, uptime, stability, and diversity factors with EWMA smoothing.
Bandwidth spoofing or double voting = entire stake slashed + permanent ban. Attacks are economically irrational.
How It Works
Acquire a minimum of 10,000 KNEX and stake them to the network. Your stake represents your economic commitment and determines your base selection probability.
Connect your validator node with at least 100 Mbps sustained bandwidth. VRF-selected challengers measure your throughput, latency, and stability each epoch to compute your Bandwidth Score (BS).
Your reward weight is W_r(v) = BS(v) / Σ BS(u). Rewards decay smoothly via BDC formula: R_tx = (1 - S/Cap)^BDC. No halving shocks—predictable economics as you strengthen the network.
