Proof of Work
Mining in Porto
Anyone in Porto with a modern CPU or GPU can participate in the Malairte network. Malairte uses the RandomX proof-of-work algorithm — a memory-hard algorithm that resists ASIC hardware, keeping mining accessible to ordinary computers. A typical laptop, desktop, or gaming PC in Porto can start contributing to network security and earning MLRT rewards immediately.
With a 60-second block time and a fixed supply of 21 million MLRT, early miners in Porto benefit from the current block reward of 50 MLRT per block. The network is fully decentralised — no pools required for solo mining, though community pools are available for more consistent payouts.
