# MoonBite mainnet launch — announcement kit (2026-10-16)

One story, told the same way everywhere: every earlier chain is retired,
mainnet starts now from a fresh genesis, and the fair-launch promise is
carved into block 0 itself.

The genesis coinbase message (permanent, verifiable by anyone):

> MoonBite: fair launch, no premine, every coin mined from zero

## X / Twitter thread

**1/**
MoonBite mainnet is live.

Money you can still mine on a laptop. RandomX proof-of-work, 2-minute
blocks, 10 MBITE per block, ~33M cap. No premine, no presale, no
allocation — block 0 pays nobody.

**2/**
First, the honest part: every chain before today — the public beta and an
interim relaunch — is retired, and every coin on them, the founder's
included, is void.

We started over from a fresh genesis block whose coinbase message is
permanent and public:
"MoonBite: fair launch, no premine, every coin mined from zero"

**3/**
Fair launch means the start line is the same for everyone. Nobody mined
before this launch — you can check: block 0 is public and the whole chain
is visible and verifiable from its very first block.

**4/**
Mining is one command. Download the miner, run it, and your laptop
competes on equal terms — RandomX is CPU-optimized and ASIC-resistant.

No pool. No signup. Every block you find pays you, and only you.

**5/**
Not an investment. Not a security. No price, no exchange listing, no
promises. Coins you mine today are worth the electricity you spent —
mine to own a piece of the network, not because you expect a payout.

Everything is open source. Don't trust us — verify.

## Site launch post (for /blog or the homepage banner)

**Mainnet is live. The beta chain is retired.**

Since August, MoonBite ran a public beta chain — real proof-of-work, real
software, real bugs found and fixed. That test period is over. The beta
chain is retired and every balance on it, the founder's included, is void.

Mainnet starts today from a fresh genesis block whose coinbase message
says exactly that, permanently:
"MoonBite: fair launch, no premine, every coin mined from zero"

From block 0, everyone mines under the same rules: 10 MBITE per 2-minute
block, halving every 1,650,000 blocks, ~33,000,000 MBITE cap, RandomX
CPU proof-of-work. No premine, no presale, no allocation.

Download the miner, run one command, and you're competing from the same
start line as everyone else — including us.

## Press-kit boilerplate patch

Replace the "Launch status" fast-fact with:

> Mainnet launched October 2026 from a fresh genesis; all earlier chains
> (a public beta and an interim relaunch) were retired and voided. Testnet
> and regtest also run.

## Timing checklist (do in this order, announce LAST)

1. New binaries built (Linux + Windows) and verified on regtest.
2. Droplet seed wiped, new chain live, mining block 1+.
3. PC node + new wallet mining.
4. Miner bundles + SHA256SUMS republished, downloads verified fresh.
5. Site copy updated (genesis hash, launch date, beta-retired notices).
6. Explorer showing the new chain from block 0.
7. THEN post the thread. The announcement must never point at a network
   that isn't already fully up.
