Network
Staking-free. Classical-signature-free.
Why it exists
Your systems assume bonded capital and classical signatures.
Aether selects validators by native mining work, not stake. Every account transaction is ML-DSA-44. There is no classical fallback.
01
Fair launch. No premine. No VCs.
Tokens enter through mining. Nobody got a head start.
02
Scrypt PoW + AuxPoW
LTC / DOGE-family merged mining. Proven, cheap, available everywhere.
03
Agents settle where humans do
Bots and people pay fees and settle on the same chain, with the same accounts.
