The Lumerin Protocol offers a decentralized, trustless, and transparent infrastructure to support a commoditized form of mining hashpower for a blockchain network. Functioning as a DeFi platform or DEX for hashpower, Lumerin lets users buy, sell, and trade mining hashpower via smart contracts.
Lumerin Protocol decentralizes a marketplace for hashpower that can empower smaller miners on a blockchain network. Even users who do not own expensive mining rigs can utilize the Lumerin platform and its Titan network to buy or sell hashpower and generate rewards from participating in the consensus mechanism of a proof of work blockchain.
The Lumerin Protocol architecture consists of a marketplace where mining hashpower can be traded, distributed, or monitored with open, trustless, and peer-to-peer communications. Governed by the power of smart contracts, the technology will allow network participants to gain control over hashpower without owning mining equipment or renting it. The EVM-compatible component of the project lets Lumerin support fully programmable smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps).
The Lumerin Protocol enhances the messaging layer of conventional routing protocols with the power of smart contracts. Its technology also decentralizes the routing layer to make Web3 and peer-to-peer communications more transparent and convenient.
The LMR serves as the native cryptocurrency of the Lumerin Protocol. An ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, LMR serves as the utility token powering smart contracts and dApps operating on the Lumerin network. In addition, it is distributed as a reward to miners who participate in consensus and contribute to securing the decentralized network.
