Description

Shear is a CPU-mined ledger whose coin, SHE, is created when a block is found and not before. There is no premine and no sale of SHE by the developers. Holders offer a silent ID; the chain writes revolving dests; amounts stay public. Proof of work is ShearHash-v3. A found block closes exactly one SHE. Each hasher dest that produced proven work in that round receives its own hash bonus on the next sealed block. This preprint states the project’s goals and the architecture that carries them.
