A lightweight SHA-256 blockchain built for real-world use.
SHA-256 Compatibility
Mine with widely available hardware while maintaining straightforward security assumptions.
Fixed Supply Model
A capped supply and consistent halving schedule keeps issuance easy to understand.
Modern Addressing
Bech32 (XRO...) improves UX and helps reduce common address-format errors.
XeroCoin is a decentralized, open-source cryptocurrency designed for secure, fast, and transparent digital transactions. The project emphasizes sustainability, decentralization, and ease of integration into real-world applications.
This landing page is intentionally whitepaper-aligned: concise, technical, and easy for exchanges, pools, and integrators to reference.

Difficulty cadence
A 120-minute adjustment window aims to balance responsiveness with reduced volatility.
Coinbase maturity
20 blocks helps reduce risks from short reorg scenarios in early network conditions.
Bech32-first
Cleaner QR codes, better error detection, and consistent modern wallet support.
The XeroCoin network operates through decentralized peer-to-peer communication. Nodes interact using the designated P2P port (25170), while JSON-RPC communication for wallets, miners, and explorers uses RPC port 25169.
This separation keeps operations clean for infrastructure operators and developers.
Mining utilizes the SHA-256 algorithm, ensuring compatibility with established hardware and tooling. Blocks target a steady 10-minute cadence, with difficulty adjustments every 120 minutes.
A minimum of 6 confirmations is recommended for strong transaction finality.
100,000 Xero maximum
XeroCoin features a fixed total supply of 100,000 Xero. Emissions begin at 10 Xero per block and halve every 5000 blocks.
Scarcity with clarity
The schedule is easy to communicate publicly, while supporting long-term scarcity and miner incentives.
Hold & transact
Use a Bech32-enabled wallet to receive XRO addresses and send fast, transparent payments.
Secure the chain
Point SHA-256 hardware at your preferred pool or solo setup. The network is designed for straightforward mining operations.
Integrate services
Build explorers, payment rails, and merchant tooling using JSON-RPC and standard UTXO patterns.
Network Foundations
Mainnet stability, reference wallets, explorer + API endpoints.
Ecosystem Growth
Merchant tools, pool partnerships, integration documentation.
Real-world Integration
Payment rails, community apps, long-term governance model.
Is the supply capped?
Yes. XeroCoin targets a fixed total supply of 100,000 Xero with a halving schedule every 5000 blocks.
What hardware can I use?
Any SHA-256 compatible mining setup.
Why Bech32 (XRO...)?
Improved readability and error detection with a modern standard.
How many confirmations?
Minimum of 6 confirmations is recommended for typical security assumptions.
