Qwertycoin v2 technical whitepaper — updated 2026-09-22

Qwertycoin (QWC) is a privacy-preserving digital currency secured by RandomX proof of work. Qwertycoin v2 adds Egalitarian Proof of Service (EPoSE) v2, a deterministic protocol that qualifies service identities and assigns part of the scheduled block subsidy without replacing proof of work.

RandomX remains the only block-production and chain-selection mechanism. EPoSE does not use stake, collateral, delegated voting, or a second chain.

This whitepaper explains the current implementation. Consensus is defined by the Qwertycoin Core source and the canonical chain. If prose and code disagree, the implementation at the referenced release is authoritative.

Current baseline

Item	Current value
Core release	v2.0.2
Release classification	Stable client for public testing
Block version	QWC hardfork 17 from genesis
Mining consensus	RandomX (rx/0) proof of work
Service protocol	EPoSE protocol version 2
Block target	120 seconds
Display precision	8 decimal places
EPoSE service share	10% of scheduled subsidy; fees remain with the miner

The current EPoSE evidence ledger remains NO-GO for stable/audit readiness. That ledger is a release-assurance status, not a runtime switch. The v2.0.2 client and EPoSE protocol are available for public testing while independent review and remaining evidence work continue.
