- Launch. A coin goes out on pump.fun. Its creator-fee wallet is the zdig vault for that coin.
- Rent. Each epoch (6h) the vault's SOL is swapped and spent on Equihash 200,9 hashpower, pointed at a ZEC pool under that coin's worker name.
- Dig. Valid shares deepen the coin's tunnel. Depth is public, so anyone can check the rig is really working.
- Pay. Mined ZEC is split pro-rata across holders with a registered address. Shielded first, transparent if you insist. Dust under 0.001 ZEC rolls to the next epoch.
fees
Of the creator fees: 80% rents hashpower, 15% covers pool, swap and Zcash network costs, 5% goes to zdig. Creators can raise the rig share to 100%.
why zcash
Equihash is ASIC-mined and the hash market is liquid, so fee SOL can turn into honest ZEC. Shielded payouts mean holders don't have to dox their stack.
status
Launching is live: coins are real pump.fun coins with the zdig vault set as creator, so their creator fees build up in the vault. No hashpower is rented yet and no ZEC has been mined or paid. Mining starts once the rig is funded, and the ledger will show every rental and payout. zdig has no token of its own yet, and any CA you see elsewhere isn't ours.
