HackMe Network (HMC)

HackMe is a live Proof-of-History network where miners earn native HMC by running useful cybersecurity work—WASM Dig and ASAN Hunt fuzzing—via an open-source HTTP mining pool.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

About HackMe Network

HackMe Network is a live independent Proof-of-History chain whose mining work is useful cybersecurity compute: miners run open-source workers (hackme-node + workerpoh) against an HTTP pool coordinator and earn native HMC for WASM Dig fuzzing and ASAN Hunt campaigns, not empty SHA-256 hashes. It is for GPU/CPU miners who want payable useful-PoW and for teams that need distributed fuzz capacity with escrow-style campaign economics. The problem it addresses is the gap between conventional crypto mining and real application-security testing—hashrate that also produces coverage and crash discovery on OSS/customer targets.

Consensus mechanism or token standard
Proof of History (PoH) + useful-PoW task gates (native coin, not ERC-20)

Mining algorithm
Useful PoW / PoH + WASM sandbox gates (GPU CUDA/OpenCL workerpoh; HTTP coordinator, not Stratum)

Maximum supply
100,000,000 HMC

• Early-stage network: hashrate and liquidity are still developing; DYOR.
• Pool uses an HTTP coordinator model (not Stratum); miners must use official/open-source clients.
• Chain id currently advertised as hackme-dev-mainnet (intentional pre-listing wire id).
• Genesis treasury (50,000 HMC) and fee/dev splits are disclosed on-chain/docs; operator settlement depends on funded treasury.
• No published third-party smart-contract-style audit of the full stack; security relies on open source + internal testing.
• Paper/spot market rails are rolling out; do not treat promotional exchange UIs as live CEX custody.
• Companion tickers (e.g. SUP) are separate from primary mineable HMC.

Developer Notes:
- Official pool is HTTP coordinator (not Stratum): https://hackme.tech/pool/coordinator
- Live stats: https://hackme.tech/pool/coordinator/api/pool/stats
- Cybersecurity useful-PoW angle is core product, not a meme coin.
- Primary mineable asset is HMC; SUP is a companion loyalty ticker.
