Questions people ask

Short answers about NHBCoin, drawn from what this site already says, each with a link to the page that goes deeper.

NHBCoin is a Layer 1 blockchain engineered as a purpose-built payment rail for the global economy: instant, intuitive and designed for mainstream use. The same network serves everyday users, businesses and developers.

What is the difference between NHB and ZNHB?

NHB is the network's stable, dollar-pegged currency for daily payments and settlement. 1 NHB is designed to hold a $1.00 value by protocol. ZNHB, also called ZapNHB, is the loyalty and staking asset: it is earned through network usage and staking, helps secure the network and unlocks the built-in loyalty system. When you take payments, the developer docs explain how a fiat amount is converted to NHB at the oracle price.

Do I need a seed phrase or a wallet address to start?

No. You can secure your NHB wallet with Google or email in seconds, without seed phrases, and you can send NHB straight to an email address or an @username instead of a long wallet address. NHBCoin resolves it automatically.

What does it cost a business to accept NHB?

Current business pricing is set out on the For Business page, so check it there for the latest fees. The sample payment on this page shows a Zero Customer Fee, with the Merchant Discount Rate paid by the store, and for people sending and paying in NHB most transfers cost nothing.

What is POTSO?

Proof of Time Spent Online (POTSO) is NHBCoin's consensus mechanism. It decides who produces the next block by weighing a validator's staked ZNHB together with an on-chain Engagement Score, so the network is secured by active, reliable participants and not only by the largest holders.

Can developers build on NHBCoin?

Yes. NHBCoin includes a Go-Ethereum (Geth) engine and is EVM compatible, and the developer docs say you can deploy existing Solidity contracts and use familiar tools such as Hardhat, Foundry, Remix and ethers.js. Escrow, a loyalty engine, subscriptions and Login with NHBCoin are available as building blocks through REST and JSON-RPC interfaces.
