SOH Stohn Coin Rank #5360

Stohn Coin (SOH) is a decentralized digital currency that operates on its own peer-to-peer blockchain network, allowing value to be transferred between users without intermediaries. Created in 2021 by a group of cryptocurrency enthusiasts, it belongs to the category of Layer 1 smart contract platforms that use a Proof of Work consensus mechanism to secure transactions and validate the public distributed ledger. The network uses the Scrypt algorithm for mining, a memory-intensive proof-of-work scheme designed to resist specialized ASIC hardware and remain more accessible to individual miners using consumer-grade equipment. The maximum supply is capped at 40 million coins, with miners initially receiving 100 coins per block and the reward halving every 200,000 blocks, following a deflationary issuance schedule similar to Bitcoin. Blocks are targeted to be produced at an average interval of five minutes. A distinguishing technical feature of Stohn Coin is its use of the LWMA3 (Linearly Weighted Moving Average 3) difficulty adjustment algorithm. LWMA3 responds rapidly to fluctuations in network hashrate, helping maintain consistent block times and a more predictable coin issuance schedule, which is particularly useful for a smaller network subject to variable mining power.
