HDDcoin Network

Very excited to announce the release of HDDcoin v2.0.0, which adds the much awaited HDDcoin HODL functionality!

HDDcoin HODL offers coin holders the opportunity to earn rewards on HDD locked in a Contract for specific durations. Contracts are secured and managed 100% on-chain using a Smart Coin Contract coded in CLVM (the on-chain programming language used by HDDcoin). More information about HODL available here => https://hddcoin.org/hodl

Head over to our download page => https://hddcoin.org/download for update instructions.

PS: Right before the first year HODL promo rates, our special EARLY BIRD rates of up to 30% will run for the next 5 days (January 10th-14th, 2022)!

The HDDcoin Online Store has launched! 🥳

All HDD merch is currently ON SALE while we run our Grand Opening / Holiday Promotion! So go grab your favorite items quickly while this offer lasts at https://store.hddcoin.org

The default Store payment method is HDD. Yes, you read that right -- your HDD! You can also pay in US Dollars using all the major Credit/Debit Cards and PayPal.

HDDcoin is officially the fastest growing fork of Chia! Thanks to all our esteemed farmers from around the world, we have now exceeded 1.5 EiB of total Netspace!

We are also the only fork really being traded on a Crypto Exchange today (https://hddcoin.org/exchanges). And not just any sort of Exchange, but a top-25 Exchange according to CoinGecko.

Since our HDD/USDT pair got listed on the XT.com Exchange (https://www.xt.com/trade/hdd_usd), we have also now become the most traded fork, clocking in trading volumes of over 250,000 HDD during the past 5 days alone!

We continue to work to execute on our current Projects in the works, and have made enormous progress on these. We’ve now been featured on several News Articles, Blogs and Videos, and the Alt Coin Crypto community is beginning to notice the HDDcoin Project!

Quick reminder that HDDcoin uses the same plot format as Chia™️, such that you can farm HDDcoin along side Chia™️, using your current plots created for Chia™️ on the same machine(s). This way you take more advantage of your Chia™️ plots and make them even more valuable.

We have an active development team and a highly engaged community on Discord. Join us today to stay up to date with all our projects => https://discord.com/invite/5va3txyzVH
