Chik is a hard fork created by volunteers in the community using Chia code. As a completely decentralized and community autonomy cryptocurrency, it can create a low-power, green and environmentally friendly blockchain system with Chia™.
2 How does it work?
Chik uses the free disk space on the hard disk for Proof-of-Space (PoSpace) consensus, along with another consensus algorithm, Proof of Time (PoTime) to verify the blockchain.
The income of Chik farmers is proportional to the amount of allocated storage space; if you have 10 times the space, you will earn 10 times the reward.
3 What is a Chik Farm?
Running a Chik Farm is similar to mining, but using hard drive storage space instead of processing power. During block creation a snapshot the network storage space is taken;
Personal income is determined by the percentage of storage space a user contributes to the total storage space on the network. The more storage space you allocate to a Chik Farm, the greater your profit.
4 What is Plotting?
To start a Chik Farm it must be plotted, a process that requires a read and write to the allocated hard drive farm space. Once your hard disk is plotted, you may become a farmer and harvest it as long as you keep the proof generated by plotting.
The initial plot process fills the farm space with random input proofs, reads the drives through direct access to the API, and then sorts them to quickly find the proofs obtained.
5 Chik mining economic model
On the blockchain of the Chik network, there is no upper limit to the total number of Chik coins that can be generated through farming rewards (farming), but block rewards will be reduced over time.
A block is generated every 18.75 seconds, and each block rewards 2 XCK. 100% is allocated to miners. Halving of block rewards in 3 years, to a final reward rate of 0.125 XCK every 10 minutes from the 13th year.
6 What problems does Chik solve?
Chia officially reserves a large number of coins.
The official developers of Chia coin reserve 21 Millions coins for their own use, which is unfair to everyone who participates in the Chia ecosystem. The 21 Millions coins officially reserved are equivalent to the total rewards to all miners mining for a consecutive 12 years.
