TensorCash (TSC)
Proof-of-inference: securing the chain with real LLM compute
Coin Specifications
-
TensorCashCoin Name
-
TSCTicker Symbol
-
Proof-of-InferenceAlgorithm
Miners run real LLM inference — Qwen3-8B in bf16 — instead of hashing. Each share is a verified 256-token sampling transcript.
-
~24 minBlock Time
Measured across the last 144 blocks. The protocol targets 10 minutes; actual spacing varies with network hashrate.
-
Epoch-decayingEmission
The first epoch spans 715 blocks and each following epoch is twice as long, with the block reward decaying by a factor of 3/5 per epoch.
-
92.66 TSCBlock Reward
Current epoch. The reward decreases at every epoch boundary.
Pool Information
-
1%Pool Fee
Taken from the block reward before PPLNS distribution.
-
PPLNSPayout Scheme
Pay Per Last N Shares — your reward reflects contribution across the recent share window, which discourages pool hopping.
-
Last 5 blocksPPLNS Window
Shares from the five most recent rounds are weighted into each payout.
-
Every 60 minPayout Schedule
Balances above the minimum are sent automatically once per hour.
-
0.1 TSCMinimum Payout
Balances below this threshold roll over to the next payout run.
-
101 blocksBlock Confirmations
Coinbase maturity on the TensorCash chain. A found block must reach this depth before it can be paid out.
Fee Structure
-
1%Pool Fee
Deducted from the block reward. It covers the verification fleet — every share is checked by GPU inference verifiers — plus node, payout and infrastructure costs.
-
99%Miners Receive
Distributed via PPLNS in proportion to verified inference work, paid directly to your mining address.
Emission & Rewards
TensorCash rewards verified LLM inference rather than hashing. Every block certificate carries a proof that real forward passes were computed, and the pool verifies each submitted share before crediting it.
Emission is epoch-based: the first epoch spans 715 blocks, each following epoch is twice as long, and the block reward decays by a factor of 3/5 per epoch. The current epoch pays 92.66 TSC per block, with a coinbase maturity of 101 blocks. Details at tensorcash.org and git.tensorcash.org/tensorcash.
About TensorCash — proof-of-inference
TensorCash is a blockchain secured by proof-of-inference: instead of burning energy on hash puzzles, miners run real large-language-model inference (Qwen3-8B in bf16) on their GPUs. The compute that secures the chain is the same compute that serves AI workloads — mining produces useful work by construction. Details and source at git.tensorcash.org/tensorcash.

Inference-as-work
Miners receive inference jobs over our TCP stratum, run them on GPU and return a signed sampling transcript. Qwen3-8B in bf16 needs ~24 GB VRAM on a single card (a 32 GB card is comfortable); two 16 GB cards work only tensor-split across both. Verified transcripts are credited as shares.
-
TCP stratum, two bands
Workers connect over plain TCP stratum:
stratum+tcp://tsc.suprnova.cc:3310for fast cards,:3309for slower ones. Your wallet address is the username; difficulty adjusts automatically. -
Bech32 addresses
Mine directly to your wallet address — it is your username, no registration needed. Mainnet addresses start with
tc1…. -
Verified work only
Every share is replayed by our GPU verifiers before it is credited, so fabricated transcripts earn nothing and honest miners are not diluted.
Why mine TSC here?
-
1% fee, PPLNS
A single flat fee covers the verification fleet and infrastructure. No hidden deductions, no per-payout charge beyond the network transaction cost.
-
One-line worker setup
One binary, no Docker — point
supr-meow-tscat the stratum with your wallet address. See Start Mining. -
PPLNS (window = 5)
Pool-hopping resistant. Your credit depends on your share of the last 5 blocks' work, not just the current round.
-
Instant job updates
Jobs are pushed to your worker the moment they exist — no polling, no stale work, automatic reconnect handling in the official worker.
-
Familiar suprnova dashboard
Same live stats, PPLNS accounting, and payout automation as our other pools — once blocks mature, credits go out automatically.
