Hello world, it's Sirajcoin!

Sirajcoin is an experiment with two goals:

• add rocket fuel to the growth of our community
• fund AI research in a decentralized way!

Note: this is still very experimental code, and it may be insecure. Please do not pay real money for Sirajcoin.

To send and receive Sirajcoin, you'll need Node.js version 8 or later.

Then in your terminal, run:

npm i -g sirajcoin

If you're having trouble installing, try installing it locally:

mkdir -p ~/.sirajcoin && \
cd ~/.sirajcoin && \
echo {} > package.json && \
npm i sirajcoin && \
export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/node_modules/.bin

First, you'll need to generate a Sirajcoin address.

After you've installed the wallet, you can see your address by running:

$ sirajcoin balance

To get your first Sirajcoin, simply subscribe to the YouTube channel, then post a comment containing your Sirajcoin address on this video, and the Sirajcoin YouTube oracle will automagically grant you 10 Sirajcoin if you've subscribed.

To send Sirajcoin to someone, run:

$ sirajcoin send <recipient_address> <amount>

In short, Sirajcoin is a proof-of-stake cryptocurrency built on top of Tendermint consensus using a library called Lotion, secured by a hand-picked set of community validators.

You can learn more about the technical details and economic design of Sirajcoin in the Sirajcoin whitepaper.
