NERVA utilizes exclusive Cryptonight Adaptive algorithm, with the aim of promoting decentralization and a preference for CPU miners.
NERVA believes facing the issues in crypto are far more important than the personal wealth of individuals. There was no ICO, just a fair launch for those who want to help provide a brighter future for crypto.
No need to run separate GPU mining rigs or other specialized hardware. Mine coins on your current computer with no additional software.
One minute block time means your funds arrive quickly. Fast transactions, combined with low fees, allow you to send and receive NERVA quickly and cost effectively.
Based on Monero, NERVA combines cryptonote's privacy and fungibility with an emphasis towards decentralization. Transactions remain anonymous and keep their histories hidden.
An emphasis on CPU mining and no additional mining software means anyone can get involved quickly and easily.
Crypto should be for everyone, not just those who can afford the hardware to mine it. NERVA allows you to mine on standard desktop computers, without elaborate hardware or software configurations. Because if crypto is going to be our future, then we all need to be able to be a part of it. Read More
We are following up on this mission. We are actively working every day to produce software that is easy to use for everyone. We have API's in .NET and PHP to allow other developers to integrate NERVA into their web and software projects. We also decided to start work on our own GUI (currently in Beta) to build these ideals of simplicity and ease of use into a lean, tidy cross platform package.
NERVA also enjoys a substantial following on Discord. So there is always someone available to chat to or get help from. Community is a big part of NERVA. This is truly a community focused and driven coin. Where every miner, trader or hodler is treated equally. The NERVA community all share a common ideal. To take crypto back from big corporations and organised mining operations and give it back to the people. The way crypto was designed and the way it was intended.
NERVA is widely known as an experimental coin. But that's just cause we're doing things a bit differently. With a custom Proof of Work algorithm, the focus on solo CPU mining and the accelerated emission curve, NERVA is changing the way people think about cryptocurrencies and how they are mined and traded. Read More
As well as being a solid coin that is easy to mine on any old computer, NERVA is also engaged in some more experimental aspects of crypto. NERVA was the first coin to demonstrate a self adjusting algorithm by changing some algorithm parameters every block. Now Cryptonight Adaptive is in v5 and every single hash relies on different, randomly selected data from the blockchain. This reliance on blockchain data improves resistance of the network, to ASIC and FPGA attack. The algorithms reliance on stored blockchain data also put NERVA at the forefront of resistance to rented hash services like NiceHash and Mining Rig Rentals, which also makes NERVA the best available coin for resisting 51% attacks that have compromised the integrity of many blockchains before. NERVA is a coin you can have total confidence in as a method of payment and as store of wealth in the short or long term.
The other talking point of NERVA is the rapid coin emission, with all coins due to be emitted within 3 years of the genesis block. But why? Monero and it's fork coins (of which NERVA is one) rely on the principle of the 'tail emission' after the last of the coins are emitted. A flat block reward that is aimed to replace lost coins and keep miners incentivised. But does it work? Well no one actually knows. No Cryptonight POW blockchain has come to the end of its work. NERVA is going to do that before any other. NERVA will be the project that other projects look to for answers and an example of how to manage that transition. So by being a part of NERVA, you are getting into a project that will have the world's attention on it in a couple of years.
Overall, NERVA defies the conventional wisdom of crypto and challenges people to think differently about how cryptocurrency is mined and traded and how blockchains are secured now and into the future.
Our use case is simple. To provide a stable blockchain with fast, low fee transfers usable by anyone with a straightforward, no nonsense interface. To provide the tools and resources to assist developers to integrate NERVA into their systems and use NERVA as an alternate payment method. Read More
One person, or even one community as passionate as ours can't really change the world. But we can take the first steps. We provide tools and assistance to anyone who wants to help us revolutionise the way people shop online and the currency they use to pay for goods and services. Our WooCommerce plugin allows you to accept NERVA on your ecommerce site, just like PayPal or credit cards. Our API's allow you to integrate NERVA into your next ecommerce or analytics site. Maybe you'd like to make a new online game and use NERVA as an in game currency. The possibilities are endless. And when you base your next development on NERVA, or accept it as payment on your store, you're basing it on a fast paced, extremely decentralized and stable blockchain.
But what about if you're not a developer? Don't worry, we've got you covered. We have very active development on multiple fronts, creating more and more ways for you to trade and use NERVA. We are actively seeking additional exchanges to list on to expand your choices for buying and selling NERVA and actively working on bringing you great ways to spend those coins you mine and buy.
Nerva is decentralized due to its pool resistance and CPU-only mining.
It is extremely resistant to 51% attacks because each miner operates full node.
1 CPU = 1 VOTE as Satoshi mentioned in his whitepaper.

XeggeX was a small but fast growing crypto exchange in 2023 that was listing smaller crypto projects.
Nerva ($XNV) was listed there in December 2023. Everything was fine until February 2025 when one day, XeggeX exchange went offline and claimed that their CEO, also known as Karl was hacked. They assured users that funds were safe. A few days later they claimed issues with database but after a few weeks they re-opened the exchange. They allowed deposits and withdrawals but for bigger projects such as ETH, BTC, USDT, they issues IOUs so users could not withdraw those.
Some weeks passed and one day xeggex website went offline and disappeared. All user funds that were on the exchange were lost or rather stolen by “Karl”. Some sources say that he had gambling problem and gambled all that crypto away.
In January 2025, a year after going offline, this account started posting in XeggeX discord server and old website xeggex.com came back online.
New exchange popped up that started listing crypto projects for free including Nerva: https://nerva.one/do-not-use-anonex-scam-crypto-exchange/
And on February 15, 2026, old @xeggex account on X posted a message saying that they’re back and that they’re processing refunds.
If you really think that you’ll get anything back from this XeggeX scammer, you’re beyond help. Stay away. The funds are gone. He run out of money and he’s looking for suckers to scam.
Nerva was listed on XeggeX crypto exchange in December 2023. In February 2025, XeggeX claimed database issues but said that funds are safe. Shortly after that, they re-opened the exchange but for major currencies such as BTC, ETH, USDT they issues IOUs so you could not withdraw them.
Some weeks after that, XeggeX domain stopped working and it disappeared with all the user funds that were on there. The guy who run that exchange called himself Karl. It turned out that he rugged everybody, stole the funds and disappeared for a year.
Looks like Karl or whoever he is, might have run out of money. Here are recent announcements from XeggeX Discord server:
Now a new exchange called AnonEx is online, running XeggeX latest code. It’s listing coins for free, trying to get people to deposit funds and trade there. Surely it’s not the same scammers trying to rug people again.
What do you think a legitimate response could be? https://twitter.com/NervaCurrency/status/2023448960652976290
We got our response and a block at the same time. You can decide for yourself if AnonEx is legitimate or a scam.
Their exchange URL is https://anonex.io
We do not recommend you deposit $XNV there, deposit any other funds or trade there.
You have been warned.
Nerva was born on May 1, 2018. There was a 1% pre-mine of 180,000 XNV that went to the person who created it (AngryWasp). Initial supply was set to 18.4 million coins and once those were distributed to miners, tail emission started. Tail emission is set to 0.3 XNV per block, with 1 minute blocks. Nerva has been in tail emission since January 19, 2021 so from that point, annual inflation is 158,000 XNV (or around 0.83%). As of this writing outstanding XNV supply is 19.16 million.
Initially, Nerva became popular because of the new algorithm, accelerated emission and being CPU only minable. It quickly attracted a lot of people. As time went on and there was nothing groundbreaking happening, the project was less and less appealing to people. Not much was happening and in November 2021 Nerva’s creator just left without saying anything to anybody in Nerva community.
Services started breaking down but a few people stepped in and helped restore things to keep the project going.
Once things were restored, there was a lot of talk but there were few people willing to do anything to move the project forward. Shortly after that, everything started slowing down again to the point where almost nobody was even posting anything in discord other than a few issues and occasional “is this project dead?”
From June 2023 until February of 2025, there was push to try to wake up Nerva’s community from sleep and accomplish something useful. XNV was listed on XeggeX exchange and DogeCash App (mobile and web wallet), Discord server was cleaned up of unverified and inactive users and Nerva Community started coming together, showing some support.
New development started happening. NervaOne Wallet and Miner was developed. New version of core software was released, new API was developed, NerVault was created, new Discord bot was developed and a few other development initiatives took place.
There was also big marketing push, especially on X to try to grown Nerva’s community. Still, there were only a few people willing to get involved and since Nerva could not gain traction, people moved on to other things and things died down again.
XeggeX and TradeOgre exchange rugged and there was nowhere to trade $XNV.
Crypto privacy started gaining traction towards the end of 2025 and in January 2026, Nerva’s Discord server started becoming active again. There were people willing to do some work again and contribute towards exchange listing. At the end of January 2026, Nerva was listed on NonKyc exchange.
NonKyc exchange combined with marketing on Reddit and 4chan caused another explosive interest in this small privacy crypto project. New goals were set and people started showing willingness to get involved again.
Where we go from here is up to Nerva’s community because Nerva is an open-source, community crypto project. Anybody who wants to can get involved and help it succeed.
Here are some positive things about Nerva:
Documentation: https://docs.nerva.one/about/
GitHub: https://github.com/nerva-project/
Short history from 2023: https://nerva.one/a-brief-history-of-nerva-project/
Today, Nerva privacy crypto project from 2018 has been listed on NonKyc centralized exchange.
Since XeggeX and TradeOgre rug last year, there were no exchanges where $XNV could be traded. Now we have exchange again. Just remember, not your keys, not your crypto so do not use exchange as your wallet.
