Satori-Lite Documentation

Overview

Satori-Lite is a lightweight blockchain designed for equal opportunity mining. Unlike traditional proof-of-work systems where mining power determines rewards, Satori-Lite uses Time-Bounded Hashing (TBH) to ensure that any participant has a fair chance to earn rewards - regardless of their hardware capabilities.

Time-Bounded Hashing (TBH)

The Problem with Traditional PoW

Traditional Proof-of-Work (like Bitcoin) creates an arms race:

• Whoever hashes fastest wins
• Requires specialized hardware (ASICs)
• Massive electricity consumption
• Mining centralizes to industrial operations

The TBH Solution

Instead of "fastest wins", everyone gets equal participation windows:

How It Works

1. Slot Opens - A new 10-minute slot begins
2. Compute Hash - You calculate: SHA-256(slot || wallet || nonce)
3. Meet Difficulty - Hash must have enough leading zeros
4. Submit Once - Each wallet can submit ONE valid hash per slot
5. VRF Selection - At slot end, VRF deterministically picks a winner
6. Rewards Distributed - Winner and all participants get ZENCOIN

Proof-of-Everything (PoE)

Satori-Lite integrates with Zenpower's Proof-of-Everything scoring system. Your PoE score affects block selection weight and reward distribution.

Block Production

Slot Cycle

VRF Block Selection

The Verifiable Random Function (VRF) ensures fair selection:

1. Collect all valid hash submissions for the slot
2. Generate deterministic random output: VRF(prev_block_hash, slot_number)
3. Select winner based on VRF output and PoE-weighted probability
4. Winner produces the block, losers get participation rewards

Reward Distribution

Participant Pool Distribution

The 40% participant pool is distributed to all valid hash submitters weighted by their PoE scores:

Genesis Process

Satori-Lite uses a multisig genesis to ensure decentralization from day one.

Requirements

• Minimum 3 unique wallets must commit before network starts
• Each wallet signs a commitment message via SIWE (Sign-In With Ethereum)
• Once threshold is reached, genesis is scheduled for the next slot boundary

Why Multisig Genesis?

• Prevents single-user genesis attacks
• Ensures multiple participants from the start
• Establishes decentralization before first block
