Nerva blockchain just produced 3 millionth block!

Circulating supply at block 3 million is 18,839,660 XNV.

To get to this point it took 5 years 8 months and 15 days of CPU-only mining producing around 1 block per minute.

In another 5 years and 8.5 months, when block 6,000,000 is produced, total supply will be 19,739,660 XNV or 900,000 XNV higher. This will be towards the end of 2029.

Thank you everybody who is still here, who is still mining and supporting Nerva project. Cheers to you and to low inflation!

How the time flies! It seems like yesterday 2023 started and now it’s coming to an end.

If you’re new to Nerva, here is a brief history: https://nerva.one/a-brief-history-of-nerva-project/

And here is a blog post covering how it all started: https://nerva.one/nerva-crypto-coin-how-it-started/

The year started uneventful. Since the beginning of 2022, the project has been asleep. Nobody has been doing much other than Nerva blockchain producing new blocks and hardcore miners getting tail emission rewards.

In June 2023, discord started getting a little more active after Nerva was added to DogeCash App, a custodial mobile and web wallet. Up until this point we did not have a mobile wallet. There were some talks about creating one but nothing came out of it.

After that, we cleaned up our discord server and got rid of inactive users. We’ve upgraded our bots to help verify users and keep them active and we started our marketing push, trying to get more people involved.

December came and things started picking up quickly. Nerva twitter account started creating tweets that people were willing to engage with. We started attracting new people, some of whom were willing to get involved and help our project. We created Telegram group for people who do not use Discord. New trading pair was added to TradeOgre and we were listed on our second exchange, XeggeX.

During December we got attention of new miners and Nerva’s blockchain hash rate more than tripled!

For a while now, Nerva has been like a sleeping giant. Towards the end of 2023 that giant has woken up!

What will 2024 bring? Nobody knows but as long as there are people willing to get involved, as long as there are miners willing to commit their CPUs to protect and decentralize Nerva’s network, we’ll keep working, we’ll keep grinding and we’ll keep growing!
