Public testnet is live across four continents
A Fair-Launch Blockchain with
a Native Stablecoin
Anemos is an open-source layer-1 with no premine, no treasury, and no insider allocation — carrying a protocol-native overcollateralized USD stablecoin and a consensus-embedded price oracle. Light enough to run a full node on an Android phone.
Live figures from the Anemos public testnet explorer.
A minimal L1, with the two things
you can’t bolt on later
Fair-launch tokenomics and a trust-minimized native stablecoin only work at the base layer. Everything else stays deliberately small.
Fair launch, no insiders
No premine, no treasury balance, no foundation or team reward, and no supply cap. Every coin is minted block by block on a decaying emission schedule with a perpetual tail — the protocol funds itself forever.
Native stablecoin
A Djed-style overcollateralized USD stablecoin built into consensus, not a smart contract. Mint and redeem against an emission-funded reserve, with minting halted below the collateral floor — and both the stablecoin and Reserve Coin transferable peer-to-peer.
Consensus-embedded oracle
Each block a rotating committee subset signs the ANM/USD price into a block-body section the existing certificate already attests. The accepted price is a slow TWAP median — deviation is slashed, absence never is.
BFT instant finality
A deliberately minimal proof-of-stake core with 10-second blocks and no virtual machine. Committed means final — no reorgs, no probabilistic confirmations to wait on.
Full node on a phone
Per-block work stays O(1) and integer-only, so the Android app embeds the real node — choose Full or Pruned at setup (pruned is the phone-friendly default). It runs on commodity hardware, including a full node on an Android phone.
Three wallets, one UX
Android, web, and desktop share one wallet experience — Portfolio, Send, Receive, Convert, Staking, Activity — with multi-asset transfers and a “My Delegations” view for pooled staking built in.
Earn staking rewards
from just 500 ANM
You don’t need to run a node or put up a full validator’s stake. Delegate as little as 500 ANM to an operator’s validator pool and start earning a share of the block reward — while your coins stay under your own key.
Browse the operator marketplace in the explorer to find a good operator, then track every position in the “My Delegations” view in your wallet — so you always know exactly where your coins are.
Start small
Delegate from 500 ANM into any operator’s pool. The pool fills up over time as more delegators join.
Rewards are yours & protected
Claim your accrued rewards anytime, and rewards are never slashed. Only your staked principal is ever at risk, and any slashing is shared fairly across the pool.
Exit on your terms
Withdraw your principal after the standard validator unbonding period — and claim your rewards whenever you like, with no waiting.
For operators
Run a validator, put your own ANM in as skin in the game, and set a commission of up to 20% of the rewards your pool earns.
Join the network in three steps
Download & run
Grab the GUI or CLI for your platform — Linux, macOS, Windows, or Android — and start a node in minutes.
Explore the testnet
Browse blocks, validators, stablecoin state and the oracle feed in the explorer — the testnet oracle price is synthetic — then fund a wallet from the faucet.
Stake & validate
Bond ANM to your node and earn the minted block reward — or delegate from as little as 500 ANM to an operator’s pool and claim your rewards anytime.
From fork to mainnet
Fork from Pactus
Build on Pactus's lightweight, BFT-final, no-VM PoS core — keeping their copyright — to add native stablecoin and oracle logic.
Fair-launch tokenomics
Replace the inherited insider premine with a zero-balance treasury and a Kaspa-style minted emission curve that funds the protocol and reserve forever.
Native overcollateralized stablecoin
A Djed/Zephyr-style stablecoin baked into the protocol — mint/redeem with a collateral floor, an emission-funded reserve, and debt restructuring via recovery tokens.
Golden-age interest
Rebase yield to stablecoin holders from genuine surplus emission — the instantaneous-ratio overflow above the 1200% target — paid via an O(1) rebase index, capped to a sane annual rate, and self-throttling. Base protocol from genesis; it pays only when the system is strongly overcollateralized.
Consensus-embedded price oracle
A rotating committee subset signs ANM/USD into a per-block OracleData section; deviation is slashed, absence never is. TWAP median with a per-block move cap. Hardened with an escalating deviation slash (1→64 bps, lazy decay), a recoverable availability-exclusion gate that never slashes stake, and a tiered quorum that expands to keep a fresh price.
Global testnet (4 continents) + explorer
A live BFT testnet across four regions with a block explorer and an off-chain oracle price feeder.
v0 protocol — single version, no enabling flags
All features (split reward, delegation, oracle, stablecoin) are base protocol from genesis; dead consensus engine removed for minimal debt.
Multi-asset wallets — one unified UX
USD stablecoin and Reserve Coin become peer-to-peer transferable assets; Android, web, and desktop wallets share one UX — Portfolio, Send, Receive, Convert, Staking, Activity.
Android full-node + mobile GUI
Per-block work kept O(1) and integer-only so a phone can run a full staking node — the Anemos Android app embeds the real anemos-daemon and lets you choose Full or Pruned at setup (pruned/light is the phone-friendly default). Mobile-friendly wallet/validator GUI shipped.
Pooled staking marketplace
Anyone can delegate from as little as 500 ANM to an operator's validator pool and earn a share of the block reward — no node and no full validator stake required. Rewards are claimable anytime and are never slashed; only staked principal is ever at risk, and slashing is shared fairly across the pool. Operators run the validator, post their own ANM as skin in the game, and set a commission of up to 20%. A "My Delegations" view in every wallet and an operator marketplace in the explorer show exactly where your coins are.
Committee rotation fixed (11/75)
A committee of stake-0 genesis validators blocked every real-stake join via the 1/3-of-total-power displacement rule. Committee size is now 11 on testnet and 75 on mainnet, so real-stake validators can rotate in normally.
v0.1.0: the rename is complete
A breaking API release — the pactus→anemos purge finished end-to-end (module path, wire namespace, gRPC/JSON-RPC/REST, all three wallets and the explorer) and the smallest unit gets a name (1 ANM = 1,000,000,000 Gust). Shipped to the testnet as an atomic wipe-and-redeploy.
Security audits & determinism vectors
Fresh-context adversarial audits and golden test vectors for every stablecoin/oracle op; state-root divergence fails CI.
Mainnet genesis & economic finalization
Finalize the fair-launch allocation and the audited stablecoin/oracle launch parameters frozen into genesis.
Mainnet launch
Fair-launch genesis — no premine, no treasury, no foundation reward — with emission minted per block on a decaying schedule plus a perpetual tail.
