$POM is live.

assemble your virtual Antminer by burning $POM for the required components, add hashboards to increase your TH/s, then keep the rig powered by continuously burning more supply.
every cycle, creator fees generated by trading form the next SOL block reward. your hashrate determines your share of the network and your odds of taking the winner portion.
burn supply → build hashrate → power the rig → mine creator fees

burn $POM → build hashrate → power the rig → mine creator fees.
every machine starts with irreversible expenditure. you destroy $POM to assemble the virtual Antminer, burn more to keep it online, then compete against the rest of the network for the SOL generated by trading.
more hashrate gives you more weight, more competition raises difficulty, and every 25 minutes the market settles another block.
yes, the system is complex, and I don’t expect everyone to understand it from a few tweets. that’s exactly why I’m putting together a full video walkthrough.
in the meantime, read the article pinned on the site. once you understand how the burns, hashrate, power costs, creator fees, and block settlement connect, the whole thing starts to click.

in the meantime while I’m finishing editing the video, the whitepaper is the best place to understand the full $POM system:

it breaks down how the virtual Antminers work, how $POM is burned into hardware and power, how hashrate and difficulty emerge, and how creator fees generated by trading become the SOL block rewards miners compete for.
I still believe this is one of the coolest uses of creator fees I’ve seen: turning trading activity into a live mining economy where participants have to continuously decide whether the revenue is worth the cost of keeping their machines online.
working on a long-form video to explain everything behind $POM, how the virtual Antminers work, why supply is burned for hardware and power, how hashrate and difficulty emerge, and how creator fees become the SOL block rewards miners compete for.
not sure what’s behind the negative price action, but the tech is fully working as intended.
creator fees are being automatically claimed and routed into the mining reward pool, blocks are settling every 25 minutes, and active hashrate is receiving the SOL generated by trading.
waiting for more people to actually try the tech, build their virtual Antminers, and compete for the fee stream. once you run a miner yourself, the mechanics make a lot more sense.
building a virtual Antminer starts in the marketplace.
there are 9 components, each priced by how much it actually matters inside a real SHA-256 miner. acquiring them burns $POM permanently, and a complete base build costs 2,305,000 $POM, or 0.2305% of the fixed 1B supply.
once every component is installed, you sign to commission the machine. from there, the rig has to stay fuelled at 3,000 $POM per kWh to remain online and earn SOL from each block it participates in.
the machine has a real build cost, a real operating cost, and a real hashrate. the question is whether the creator-fee blocks can outrun both.
I haven’t seen anyone try to turn creator fees into a real mining economy like this before.
I’ve spent the last week building Proof of Mine around that idea: virtual Antminers, burned $POM for hardware and power, competitive hashrate, rising difficulty, and SOL creator fees becoming the block reward every 25 minutes.
I have a feeling a lot of people still don’t fully understand what this is yet, and that’s fine. the mechanism takes a minute to click. once it does, it becomes obvious this is not an ordinary SPL token.
the token is the fuel, the rigs are the productive capacity, hashrate is the competition, and trading revenue is what miners are actually fighting to earn.
$POM is a new kind of proof-of-work system on @pumpfun.
Proof of Mine takes the mechanics of physical mining and moves them onchain: virtual Antminers, burned $POM for hardware and power, competitive TH/s, rising difficulty, and creator fees becoming the SOL reward settled every 25 minutes.
instead of buying an ASIC and paying an electricity bill, you assemble a rig, increase your hashrate, keep it powered, and compete against the network using a token whose own trading activity funds the blocks.
if any part of the mechanism is confusing, the article is the best place to start.
