The Korsh Trident

Each pillar serves an irreplaceable cryptoeconomic role. No actor cannibalizes another; they cooperate symbiotically to make Korsh resilient and decentralized.

⚡
35% Reward

1. CPU Mining (Yespower)

Keeps the processor mining community actively engaged. Delivers instant stochastic entropy, prevents rapid chain reorganizations, and ensures global hardware accessibility without ASIC centralization.

  • Algorithm: Korsh Yespower optimized for multi-threaded CPUs.
  • Difficulty: Governed by its own Dark Gravity Wave curve (DGW-CPU).
  • Emission: 1,008 KSH allocated daily to CPU miners.

35% Reward

2. Storage Mining (.kshplot)

Green, cold, and silent storage farming. Users pre-calculate cryptographic plots once. Every 60 seconds, drives perform a microscopic read (< 1% CPU usage and virtually zero electrical draw).

  • Format: Native .kshplot files sealed with Korsh genesis entropy.
  • Difficulty: Governed by its own DGW-HDD curve scaled to Terabytes.
  • Emission: 1,008 KSH allocated daily to storage farmers.

30% Reward

3. Masternodes (1,500 KSH)

24/7 high-availability service nodes backed by locked collateral. They execute BLS quorums (LLMQ) and finalize blocks with ChainLocks, making 51% attacks and deep reorganizations mathematically impossible.

  • Immutability: Guaranteed 30% of each block remains strictly preserved.
  • Finality: Instant transaction locking and decentralized governance.
  • Emission: 864 KSH distributed daily through deterministic queues.
Protocol Economics

Calibrated Emission Distribution

Every 60 seconds the network emits exactly 2 KSH. Route B.2 maintains perfect balance across stakeholders without compromising profitability.

Alternating Symbiotic Blocks (50/50)

Watch the Korsh blockchain produce alternating blocks between CPU and Storage channels, with Masternodes collecting their 30% share on each block while enforcing BLS ChainLocks.

How does 50/50 alternation work? The protocol operates two independent Dark Gravity Wave (DGW) instances. If CPU miners attempt to rush the chain, CPU difficulty rises immediately; if massive Petabyte storage joins, only HDD difficulty scales. This guarantees a smooth, balanced cadency between CPU and Storage blocks.

Preparing for the Protocol Upgrade

Technical instructions for CPU miners, hard drive farmers, and Masternode operators.

📦 Hard Drive Plotting & Farming (.kshplot)

Korsh plots are generated once using the native korsh-plotter bound to your KSH payout address:

BASH / TERMINAL 
./korsh-plotter -k 32 -d /media/hdd1/plots -a YOUR_KSH_ADDRESS

Once .kshplot files are prepared, run the lightweight harvester service consuming < 1% CPU.

⚙️ CPU Mining (Yespower)

CPU miners continue operating Yespower with standard mining software pointed at your local or pool node:

BASH / TERMINAL 
./cpuminer -a yespower -o stratum+tcp://pool:port -u YOUR_KSH_ADDRESS

Your CPU hashrate competes exclusively against other processors under the independent DGW-CPU curve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions & Answers

Key details regarding Korsh Core v2.0 Hard Fork upgrade.

Does hard drive mining wear out or degrade storage drives?
No. Unlike the plotting phase (which is written only once), routine farming or harvesting only performs a microscopic read of a few kilobytes every 60 seconds. There are zero continuous writes and no thermal stress, preserving drive lifespan across many years.
Are Chia plots or external third-party software used?
No. Korsh is 100% hermetic, proprietary, and sovereign. Plots use the native .kshplot format sealed with Korsh genesis block entropy. External plot files are invalid on Korsh, and Korsh plots cannot be utilized on other chains.
Are Masternode rewards reduced by this upgrade?
Not at all. Masternode operators holding 1,500 KSH collateral continue receiving their guaranteed 30% share (0.60 KSH) on every single block emitted across the network, collecting rewards on both CPU and Storage blocks.
How are chain reorganizations and 51% attacks prevented?
Through the **ChainLocks** mechanism enforced by Masternode Quorums (LLMQ with BLS threshold signatures). Once a block receives a quorum threshold signature, it is permanently locked and irrevocable, making deep reorg attacks cryptographically impossible.
