Mined, not sold
New ORYN only comes from mining. There is no presale of mined coins and nothing to buy to mine faster.
A coin you mine with your computer
ORYN is earned, not bought. Install a small program, sign in with your wallet, and your computer starts solving SHA-256 puzzles. Every minute the network releases new ORYN and splits it between the miners by the work they did.
npm install -g /oryn-cli.tgzWhat is ORYN
No mining rig, no pool, no trading. ORYN is mined the way the first coins were: your CPU proves work, and the network pays for it. Here is the whole idea in four lines.
New ORYN only comes from mining. There is no presale of mined coins and nothing to buy to mine faster.
The miner tries millions of SHA-256 hashes looking for a rare result. Finding one is a share: proof your machine worked.
Every 60 seconds a round closes and its ORYN is split between that round's miners, by how much work each one proved.
50,000,000 ORYN, ever. The amount per minute halves every 30 days, so early work earns the most.

Never used a terminal? That is fine. Follow the steps in order, copy each line with the button next to it, and paste it into your terminal.
The miner runs on Node.js, a free program that runs JavaScript on your computer. Download the LTS version from nodejs.org and install it like any other app.
Then open PowerShell: press the Windows key, type PowerShell, press Enter.
Then open Terminal: press ⌘ Space, type Terminal, press Enter.
On a server, install Node 18+ with your package manager or from NodeSource, then connect over SSH.
Check it worked. You should see a version like v20.11.0:
node -vStuck? If it says "command not found", close the terminal, open a new one and try again.
One line installs the oryn command. It is a small package with no dependencies, so it installs in seconds.
npm install -g /oryn-cli.tgzPermission error? Put sudo in front of the line and type your Mac password (nothing shows while you type).
Permission error? Put sudo in front, or use a Node version manager like nvm.
Scripts disabled? Run Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned once, then try again.
This connects the miner to your wallet. It shows a short code and opens this website in your browser.

No browser on a server? Make a key in your dashboard, then run oryn login --paste and paste it.
A page opens with the same code. Check that the codes match, press Connect wallet, sign the message, then press Authorize.
Is signing safe? Yes. It is a free message, not a transaction: no gas, no approvals, nothing leaves your wallet. The miner gets a key that can mine and nothing else.
Back in the terminal, start the miner. It uses every core but one and shows a live dashboard. Leave it running; press Ctrl + C to stop at any time.
oryn mineHuman check. Now and then the miner asks a small sum, like 12 + 7. Type the answer and press Enter; it keeps bots out. Want your computer free for other work? Use oryn mine -t 2 for two threads.
Run oryn status in the terminal, or open your dashboard and connect the same wallet. You will see your balance, your terminals and, once the token is live, a withdraw button.
oryn statusHow mining works
The server sends your miner a random challenge. Your CPU searches for a number that makes sha256(challenge + number) start with enough zeros. Finding it takes millions of tries; checking it takes one.
16 random bytes and a number of zero bits, sized for your machine. Each job can be used once.
Each thread tries different numbers, so no two cores repeat work. There is nothing to configure.
The server redoes a single SHA-256. If the zeros are there, the share is yours and counts 2bits of work.
0/ 16 zero bits
This is real SHA-256 running on this page at an easy demo target of 16 bits. The miner does the same thing at full speed on every core.
About one share every 20 s, each worth 16.8 million hashes.
Also one share every 20 s, but each is worth 16× more. Faster machines earn more, fairly.

The rules
Supply
Each round releases the same amount no matter how many miners show up, and that amount halves every 30 days. More machines can't print more ORYN; they only share the same slice. Rounds where nobody mines release nothing.
No. Mining is free and signing in is a free message. The only cost is your computer's electricity while it mines.
No. ORYN is mined on the CPU, the regular processor every computer has. A laptop works; more cores mine faster.
No. The miner gets an API key that can only submit work for your wallet. It cannot move funds. Withdrawals need a fresh signature from your wallet, and you can revoke any terminal from your dashboard.
It depends on your share of the network's work. If your machine does 5% of all the work in a round, you get 5% of that round's ORYN. Nobody can promise a number, and ORYN is not an investment.
By default it uses every core but one. To keep more room, start it with fewer threads: oryn mine -t 2. Stop at any time with Ctrl + C.
Yes. Install the miner on each one and log in with the same wallet. On a server without a browser, make a key in your dashboard and run oryn login --paste. Up to 3 wallets can mine from one network at a time.
Balances are kept by the ORYN server until the ORYN token is live on Robinhood Chain. Then the dashboard's withdraw button sends your balance as tokens, one ORYN for one token.
It is a human check against bots: a small sum when you start and about every 30 minutes. Type the answer and mining continues.
