Cascoin Core is the full node software that makes up the backbone of the CAS network.
Cascoin is a cryptocurrency supporting dual PoW (SHA256/MinotaurX) and Labyrinth Mining - a unique hybrid consensus mechanism that combines traditional mining with "mice" creation for block rewards.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Block Time | 2.5 minutes |
| Max Supply | 84 million CAS |
| Halving Interval | 840,000 blocks |
| PoW Block Reward | 25 CAS |
| Labyrinth Block Reward | 75 CAS |
| PoW Algorithm | SHA256 (ASIC) / MinotaurX (CPU) |
| Default Port | 22222 |
| Address Prefix | H (mainnet) |
- Hybrid Consensus: Combines PoW with Labyrinth Mining
- Labyrinth Mining: Create "mice" that can mine blocks without hardware
- Dual PoW: SHA256 for ASIC miners, MinotaurX for CPU miners
- SegWit: Native Segregated Witness support
- Fast Sync: SQLite-based BCT database for quick startup
Prebuilt binaries for Windows, Mac and Linux are available on the GitHub Releases page.

The main 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.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md.
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code.
