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 does the UAH/ETHW trading pair represent in the digital asset market?

    The UAH/ETHW pair represents a direct fiat on-ramp for exchanging Ukrainian Hryvnia (UAH) for ETHPoW (ETHW) tokens. ETHW is the native cryptocurrency of the EthereumPoW blockchain, a fork of Ethereum that maintains the original Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism. This allows users to purchase a digital asset from a chain supported by GPU miners directly with their local currency.
  • What are the typical payment methods for buying ETHW with Ukrainian Hryvnia?

    To purchase ETHW with UAH, users on a cryptocurrency exchange typically utilize local payment methods. The most common are direct bank transfers via popular Ukrainian services like Privat24 and Monobank. Additionally, many platforms that act as a fiat gateway support debit and credit card payments, although these may incur higher processing fees. Always verify the supported UAH deposit methods on your chosen exchange.
  • Is KYC/AML compliance required to trade UAH for ETHW?

    Yes, virtually all centralized cryptocurrency exchanges that offer fiat on-ramps like UAH require mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) verification. Users must typically provide government-issued ID and sometimes proof of address to enable UAH deposits and facilitate secure trading. This compliance is crucial for preventing illicit activities and protecting the platform's integrity.
  • How does an ETHW blockchain transaction differ from a standard ETH transaction?

    The fundamental difference lies in the consensus mechanism. After your UAH to ETHW purchase, the resulting on-chain transaction is validated by miners using Proof-of-Work (PoW), consuming computational power. In contrast, standard Ethereum (ETH) transactions are validated by stakers via Proof-of-Stake (PoS). This makes ETHW part of the legacy Ethereum chain, appealing to those who support the original, more energy-intensive but arguably more battle-tested, PoW security model.
  • What should I be aware of regarding fees when converting UAH to ETHW?

    There are two main types of fees. First, the cryptocurrency exchange will charge a fee for the UAH deposit and/or a trading fee for executing the UAH/ETHW order. Second, when you move your ETHW off the exchange to a secure digital wallet, you will pay a network transaction fee, or 'gas', to the PoW miners who validate the transaction. These gas fees on the ETHW network can fluctuate based on network congestion.
