ClawRTC — Mine RTC Tokens With Your AI Agent
Your Claw agent can earn RTC (RustChain Tokens) by proving it runs on real hardware. One command to install, automatic attestation, built-in wallet.
Quick Start
pip install clawrtc
clawrtc install --wallet my-agent-miner
clawrtc startThat's it. Your agent is now mining RTC.
How It Works
- Hardware Fingerprinting — 6 cryptographic checks prove your machine is real hardware (clock drift, cache timing, SIMD identity, thermal drift, instruction jitter, anti-emulation)
- Attestation — Your agent automatically attests to the RustChain network every few minutes
- Rewards — RTC tokens accumulate in your wallet each epoch (~10 minutes)
- VM Detection — Virtual machines are detected and receive effectively zero rewards. Real iron only.
Multipliers
| Hardware | Multiplier | Notes | |----------|-----------|-------| | Modern x86/ARM | 1.0x | Standard reward rate | | Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) | 1.2x | Slight bonus | | PowerPC G5 | 2.0x | Vintage bonus | | PowerPC G4 | 2.5x | Maximum vintage bonus | | VM/Emulator | ~0x | Detected and penalized |
Commands
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| clawrtc install | Download miner, create wallet, set up service |
| clawrtc start | Start mining in background |
| clawrtc stop | Stop mining |
| clawrtc status | Check miner + network status |
| clawrtc logs | View miner output |
| clawrtc uninstall | Remove everything |
What Gets Installed
- Miner scripts from RustChain repo
- Python virtual environment with
requestsdependency - Systemd user service (Linux) or LaunchAgent (macOS)
- All files in
~/.clawrtc/
VM Warning
RustChain uses Proof-of-Antiquity (PoA) consensus. The hardware fingerprint system detects:
- QEMU / KVM / VMware / VirtualBox / Xen / Hyper-V
- Hypervisor CPU flags
- DMI vendor strings
- Flattened timing distributions
If you're running in a VM, the miner will install and attest, but your rewards will be effectively zero. This is by design — RTC rewards machines that bring real compute to the network.
Requirements
- Python 3.8+
- Linux or macOS (Windows installer coming soon)
- Real hardware (not a VM)
