Rethinking

The Blockchain

Warthog's decentralized network empowers individuals with fair, balanced, and synergized CPU/GPU work. It secures hardcoded DeFi and token technologies, eliminating the risks of smart contracts. Our goal is a safer, more efficient blockchain, aligned with the original vision of cryptocurrency: "one CPU, one vote."

What makes us unique

Built different, on purpose

#0001 0xtokenomi… LIVE

Fair Launch

Warthog's launch was publicly announced on Bitcointalk without any preallocation, premine, premint, unlocks or other vesting cliffs.

0% Team Allocation

There are no reserved dev funds, dev fees, hidden allocations or advisor carve-outs. Development is based on enthusiasts, community and donations.

100% Minable

Every WART is publicly mineable by the community. The hard cap of no more than 19 million coins to ever be mined makes Warthog scarcer than Bitcoin.

#0002 0xoriginal… PENDING

Written from Scratch

Warthog is no fork of any other project. The code was carefully from ground up by humans with real commitment, love and dedication. This is no burner project.

Modern Codebase

We picked a modern stack consisting combining C++23, clangd, Meson, and Ninja keep the stack auditable and fast. Compilation does not require additional system libraries.

Open Source

All code is open source and permissively licensed under MIT license. We welcome and appreciate contributors across C++, Rust, TypeScript, and design. Please join!

#0003 0xchain-de… PENDING

Efficient

Our synchronization model is by far more light-weight in terms of RAM usage, computational effort and required network bandwidth as no hashes need to be looked up, indexed or transmitted over the network.

Fast

The protocol supports addressing block ranges by height ranges which allows batch downloads of blocks without any list of hashes to be transmitted or processed. This greatly optimizes and speeds up synchronization.

Intelligent

Nodes understand where their own chain diverges from peers' chains and make logical conclusions to cut unnecessary network requests and detect rogue peers for an improved banning strategy.

#0004 0xpobw… PENDING

Repelling Farms

The required balanced combination of Verushash v2.2 and SHA256t bottlenecks pure GPU farms, pure CPU farms and botnets. Efficient mining requires decent CPU and GPU hashrates, which farms rarely support.

Favoring Gamers

Mining requirements were carefully picked to place consumer gaming PCs in the efficiency sweetspot. Paired with the fact that farms can't grab major profits, these go to the little guy.

Democratized Mining

Our mining algorithm brings us close to Satoshi's original vision of "one-cpu-one-vote": Mining rewards consumer hardware, not whoever can throw the most ASICs at the network.

#0005 0xdefi… PENDING

User Protection

Dirty tricks such as post-creation supply inflation, MEV extraction or other rug-pull backdoors are impossible by design. Tokenomics will be reported by Warthog itself and not by sketchy meme coin websites.

Unique Features

Implementing DeFi natively unlocks features the world has not seen before such as our Fair Batch Matching algorithm or token forks where new tokens are created with balance cloned from existing tokens (planned).

Hardened Safety

Smart Contract based DeFi is inherently unsecure and attacked almost weekly. Without an intermediate smart contract layer implmentation is much safer to write, easier to reason about and has less corner cases.

#0006 0xfbm… PENDING

Research-Backed

Our algorithm is based on a mathematical research on which we have written a paper. We prove fairness, existence and uniqueness of a solution which guarantees correctness and convergence for our implementation.

Hybrid Liquidity

In traditional exchanges orders are matched agains discrete liquidity from an oder book. In liquidity pools orders are matched against continous liquidity. We match against both, order book and liquidity pool.

No MEV

Orders are matched batch-wise without any ordering that can be exploited by block creators. This fully protects users from MEV extraction. Sandwich attacks? We don't do that here.

#0007 0xbrowser-… PENDING

In-Browser

Careful code design allows swapping the transport layer between TCP, Websocket and WebRTC such that Emscripten easily compiles the full node to Webassembly to run within the browser as simple as opening a website.

Persistence

Modern Browsers support the Origin Private File System (OPFS) to save gigabytes of data. We make use of SQLite's recently added OPFS support to directly operate and save the block chain in the browser.

P2P Support

Direct browser-to-browser communication is be done over WebRTC. After the handshake, no intermediate server is required. Bridge nodes interconnect WebRTC browser nodes to the TCP based rest of the network.

Whitepaper & Research

Warthog's whitepaper and research papers represent genuine scientific breakthroughs in cryptocurrency, grounded in rigorous mathematical foundations. The core development team holds advanced degrees in mathematics, statistics, and computer science from top-tier universities.

Whitepaper

The complete Warthog Network whitepaper — covers the project's vision, architecture, mining (Janushash/PoBW), DeFi (Fair Batch Matching), tokenomics, and roadmap. Auto-built on every commit to the build branch, always up to date.

Proof of Balanced Work

PoBW introduces a novel cryptographic mining paradigm that combines multiple hash functions multiplicatively. This innovation enables hybrid mining algorithms requiring both CPU and GPU capabilities simultaneously, providing strong ASIC-resistance and promoting energy-efficient mining through balanced hardware configurations.

Fair Batch Matching

FBM is a groundbreaking DeFi matching algorithm that eliminates sandwich attacks and MEV extraction by processing all swap orders jointly within a block. Every participant receives identical pricing regardless of transaction sequence, establishing a Nash equilibrium where manipulation becomes mathematically impossible.
