what's nockchain?

Nockchain is a Layer 1 blockchain designed for programmable sound money, emphasizing a fair launch with 100% of its $NOCK tokens issued to miners through ZK-Proof of Work (zkPoW). It operates as a lightweight chain optimized for heavyweight compute, where miners generate zero-knowledge proofs of fixed puzzle computations and hash them to secure the network and earn rewards. The project features a fixed total supply of approximately 4.29 billion tokens, mimicking Bitcoin's scarcity while incorporating Ethereum-like programmability. zkPoW integrates verifiable computation to enable privacy features and scalable security. Built by Zorp, Nockchain aims to create a reliable digital currency ecosystem with potential for privacy pools and shielding similar to Zcash.

Three specific development milestones scheduled for Q4: First Onchain NockApp Release on November 21, NockApp SDK V1 on November 28, and Bridge to Base on December 4, 2025. Miner costs average over $0.10 while current price stands at $0.06.

Current price reaches $0.063 with ~$100M market cap. Valuation targets versus ZEC increase to $0.59 (10% of ZEC mcap, 9.4x) and $0.30 (5% of ZEC mcap, 4.7x).

Integration with Aerodrome pools includes $1M minimum seeded pool, and a wallet GUI is under development.

Current price stands at $0.057, with 10% of ZEC market cap valuation now at $0.385 (6.7x return), increased from previous $0.36 target. A conservative 5% ZEC mcap scenario projects $0.193 (3.4x return).
