# Vexta Core v0.3.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Major Network Upgrade: Multi-Algorithm Mining
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Vexta Core v0.3.0 introduces **RandomX** as a second proof-of-work algorithm alongside **SHA256D**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RandomX activates on Vexta mainnet at **block 8,099**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After activation:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- SHA256D remains fully supported
|
||
|
|
- RandomX becomes available as the second mining algorithm
|
||
|
|
- both algorithms mine the same Vexta blockchain
|
||
|
|
- both use the same transactions, addresses, and block reward rules
|
||
|
|
- each algorithm maintains its own mining difficulty
|
||
|
|
- both contribute to the same chain through normalized chainwork
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The network continues to target an average global block interval of approximately **10 minutes**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Upgrade Notice
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Node operators, mining pools, exchanges, explorers, and other infrastructure should upgrade to **Vexta Core v0.3.0** before block **8,099**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Existing SHA256D mining remains supported after activation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## RandomX
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RandomX expands Vexta mining beyond SHA256D ASIC hardware and adds a CPU-oriented mining option directly to the same network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RandomX proof-of-work is integrated into Vexta consensus while preserving the existing Vexta blockchain, transaction system, addresses, and block reward rules.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Multi-Algorithm Difficulty
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SHA256D and RandomX maintain separate mining difficulty histories so each algorithm can respond independently to changes in its own mining power.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Both algorithms remain part of the same best-chain selection process through normalized chainwork.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Post-Quantum Functionality
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Vexta Core v0.3.0 retains the project's existing post-quantum wallet and address functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Post-quantum functionality and multi-algorithm proof-of-work are separate parts of the Vexta architecture.
