RustChain uses Proof-of-Antiquity (PoA) — a consensus mechanism that rewards miners running on real vintage hardware like PowerPC G4/G5, Apple Silicon, and retro x86 systems. The older and more unique your hardware, the higher your mining multiplier.
| Hardware | Multiplier | |----------|-----------| | PowerPC G4 | 2.5x | | PowerPC G5 | 2.0x | | IBM POWER8 | 2.0x | | Apple Silicon | 1.2x | | Modern x86_64 | 1.0x |
