About
ETHPoW (ETHW)
ETHW (ETHW) represents a hard fork of the Ethereum blockchain, initiated following Ethereum's transition from a Proof-of-Work (PoW) to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, an event widely known as "The Merge." The primary purpose of ETHW is to maintain the original Ethereum PoW chain, thereby offering a continuation for the existing community of miners and users who prefer the PoW model or have significant investments in PoW mining infrastructure. This decentralized network preserves the Ethash mining algorithm, relying on miners to validate transactions and secure the blockchain technology through computational work, a foundational aspect of the pre-Merge Ethereum digital ledger.
The native ETHW token is crucial for the ecosystem's functionality. It serves as the primary digital asset for paying transaction fees, commonly referred to as gas, which are necessary for executing smart contracts and interacting with decentralized applications (dApps) operating on the ETHW chain. Furthermore, ETHW tokens are distributed as mining rewards, incentivizing miners to contribute their hash power to maintain network integrity and on-chain security. ETHW aims to support a segment of the Ethereum dApp landscape and its associated tokenomics, providing an alternative platform for developers and users committed to the Proof-of-Work consensus, positioning itself as a distinct branch within the broader Web3 infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions
-
What exactly is the DZD/ETHW trading pair?
The DZD/ETHW pair represents the direct exchange rate between the Algerian Dinar (DZD) and EthereumPoW (ETHW). It allows users to perform a fiat on-ramp, purchasing the ETHW digital asset using DZD. ETHW is a fork of Ethereum that maintains the original Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, making this pair significant for those in Algeria wanting to access the EVM-compatible PoW ecosystem, including its dApps and smart contracts, directly with their local currency. -
What are the common platforms for purchasing ETHW with Algerian Dinar?
Due to the specific nature of the Algerian Dinar, peer-to-peer (P2P) exchanges are a primary venue for DZD to ETHW transactions. These platforms connect buyers and sellers directly. Some global cryptocurrency exchanges might also offer DZD fiat gateways, typically requiring stringent KYC/AML compliance. When choosing a platform, prioritize those with high trading volume, positive user reviews, and robust security measures to ensure a secure transaction. -
What is the key technical difference between ETHW and ETH when making a purchase?
The fundamental difference is the consensus mechanism. ETHW (EthereumPoW) uses Proof-of-Work (PoW), where transactions are validated by miners competing to solve complex computational puzzles. This is the original mechanism of Ethereum. In contrast, ETH now uses Proof-of-Stake (PoS) after 'The Merge' event. When you buy ETHW, you are investing in a network secured by mining, which has different security and decentralization characteristics compared to ETH's staking model. Both are EVM-compatible, but their underlying blockchain transaction validation processes are distinct. -
What fees are associated with DZD to ETHW blockchain transactions?
There are typically two types of fees. First, the trading platform or P2P exchange will charge a fee, which could be a percentage of the transaction value or a flat fee for the DZD fiat deposit and trade execution. Second, there is the ETHW network's 'gas fee'. This fee is paid in ETHW to miners who process and secure your transaction on the Proof-of-Work blockchain. Gas fees fluctuate based on network congestion and the complexity of the transaction. -
How long does a DZD to ETHW purchase and transfer usually take?
The total time is a sum of two parts. The first part is the fiat transaction: processing a DZD payment like a local bank transfer can take anywhere from a few minutes to a business day, depending on the banks and P2P platform rules. The second part is the blockchain transaction. An ETHW transfer typically takes a few minutes to achieve finality on the PoW chain, depending on the gas fee paid and current network hash rate. Higher gas fees can prioritize your transaction for faster confirmation.
