NinjaButton

A proposed independent EarthBucks mine in Tokyo.

The plan placed another mine in a different region to exercise coordination between operators.

The January announcement described the mine as forthcoming. The record distinguishes that proposal from the live EarthBucks network.

How it works

  • Explore a mine in another region

    NinjaButton was the proposed Tokyo counterpart to the London mine. Its purpose was to explore a network of mine operators, rather than another name for the main EarthBucks web app.

  • Reconsider the user interface

    A later design question was whether people should visit a separate wallet or miner at each domain. A shared EarthBucks interface could reduce duplicated work while leaving operator responsibilities distinct.

Check behavior across two mines

A useful test would submit work at one operator and check whether the other could recognize the resulting chain. The public plans give this experiment a concrete shape; they do not report a successful production run at NinjaButton. A simulated peer that drops or delays a block would make the coordination proposal testable.

Project history

  1. The proposed Tokyo site was named in the network plan. Mine locations

  2. A progress report described both the location and work still to be done. Coming Soon

  3. A separate frontend remained an open design choice. Wallet and miner alternatives
