Mine

It has a block time of 1 minute, total supply of 21 million BITG,

Network

However, mining system upgrade is not the only advantage of The Green Protocol.The Green Protocol is based on the PIVX POS mining algorithm with some additional features and changes.This POS system is stated not only as a great mining solution, but also as a great way for the decentralized governance of the Bitcoin Green network.

Proof of work blockchains are designed to need computers running all day, every day.Proof of stake blockchains only need computers to run for milliseconds at a time.Because it doesn’t require hard computing work, proof of stake has the potential to massively reduce the energy needed to add blocks to a cryptocurrency’s blockchain.
