(WART)

Warthog utilizes a unique algorithm called Janushash, which implements a "Proof of Balanced Work" system. Unlike traditional networks that favor a single hardware type, Warthog requires synergy between the CPU and GPU. If one component is significantly weaker than the other, it creates a bottleneck that leaves the stronger component idle. For optimal efficiency, miners typically seek a "golden ratio," often pairing modern high-end processors with mid-range graphics cards to ensure both components contribute equally to the mining process.

Raw hashrate measures the individual speed of your hardware components, but it does not dictate your rewards. Janusscore is the actual metric used to determine your network weight. It calculates how effectively your CPU and GPU are working in tandem. Because the Janushash algorithm requires balanced contributions, a high hashrate on a powerful GPU will be nullified if the CPU cannot keep up. Your Janusscore reflects your true mining power based on the harmony of your balanced hardware setup.

Traditional decentralized exchanges process transactions sequentially, which allows bots to manipulate prices by placing orders before and after a user's trade. Warthog eliminates this by processing all orders within a block as a single batch, removing the advantage of transaction ordering. Furthermore, by hard-coding DeFi logic directly into the node's C++ code rather than using smart contracts, the protocol eliminates the majority of contract-based exploits and hacks that frequently plague other Layer 1 blockchains.

Yes, Warthog supports full nodes that run directly within a web browser using the Origin Private File System (OPFS). This allows a browser to sync the blockchain and verify transactions independently. Importantly, the data is not lost when the tab is closed; the OPFS ensures the blockchain data remains stored on the user's local device. This innovation makes participating in the network's decentralization highly accessible without requiring the installation of complex external software.

Warthog follows a 100% fair-launch model with no premine or developer fund. The total supply is hard-capped at approximately 19 million WART. Rewards are distributed solely through mining, and the network undergoes a halving event every two years to manage emission, with the next halving expected in mid-2027. It is important to note that the native WART coin is never airdropped; any claims of free WART airdrops are typically scams, as the coin must be earned through Proof of Balanced Work.

While the developers provide node updates to improve the protocol or address security incidents—such as the 2025 third-party exchange hack—the ultimate control lies with the community. Miners and node operators must choose to adopt these updates. In the past, when fund protection measures were introduced, it sparked intense debate regarding decentralization. The network remains decentralized because if the community disagrees with a change, they can refuse to update, potentially leading to a fork. Modern versions prioritize ledger integrity and decentralized consensus.
