Vision

Bringing back the golden age of profitable, community-driven POW mining - and powering it with a full EVM ecosystem.

EVM Ecosystem

Build NFTs, tokens (ERC-20 style), DeFi apps (DEX, liquidity, farming, lending), and smart contracts on a miner-first chain.

Community First

NOVA is focused on miners and builders who want transparency, predictable economics, and a chain that values mining accessibility.

Nova 2.0 — The Noven Fork

24 phases of protocol-level innovation. Solving Ethereum's biggest problems. Battle-tested on a live devnet. Now live on mainnet (v2.0.0 — Noven Fork at block 480,000).

🛡 Native Security

Anti-Reentrancy built into the EVM. No more DAO hacks, no more Curve exploits. Every contract is protected by default.

Gas Refund on Revert — failed transactions return 90% of gas. On Ethereum you lose everything.

⚖ Anti-MEV

Transactions ordered by arrival time, not gas price. No front-running. No sandwich attacks. Fair for every user.

Rate limiting prevents mempool spam. Miners cannot reorder for profit.

♻ State Expiry

The blockchain garbage collector. Dead contracts automatically archived after 1,000 blocks. Keeps the chain lean forever.

Your wallet is NEVER expired. Only abandoned contracts get cleaned up.

🪙 Native Tokens

Tokens as protocol objects — no ERC-20 contracts needed. 10x cheaper transfers. No approve+transfer phishing pattern.

🔐 Optional Privacy

Shielded pool for private NOVA transfers. Your choice when to be private. Not forced like Monero. Native in protocol.

📊 Native Oracle

Protocol-level price feeds with TWAP. No Chainlink dependency. Circuit breaker blocks manipulation.

📦 Account Abstraction

Smart Wallets with guardian recovery and key rotation. Lost your keys? Guardians recover your account.

Tempo Transactions — atomic batching (approve + swap in ONE tx), fee delegation (DApps pay gas for you), and scheduled transactions.

Frame AA — smart contract wallets validate transactions. Supports passkeys, multisig, and quantum-resistant signatures.

🚀 Nova 2.0 Ecosystem

DeFi protocols built on native tokens (no ERC-20), privacy-enabled DEX, smart wallet adoption, and cross-chain bridges. The most advanced PoW chain in existence.

Leadership

Building a mineable EVM ecosystem with real utility - not empty blocks.

Core Team

Project Lead

Ethernova is a community-driven EVM network built to revive profitable POW mining and expand into a real on-chain economy. The core team focuses on stable infrastructure, mining-first incentives, and simple node operations (especially on Windows) - so builders can ship NFTs, tokens, and DeFi on a chain that actually gets used.

Miners are not an afterthought - they are the heartbeat.

We are looking for

  • 🛰️ Node operators (public peers / bootnodes)
  • ⛏️ Pool operators
  • 🧠 Builders (NFTs, tokens, DeFi, tooling)

If you can run infrastructure or ship dApps, you are the kind of person this chain was built for.

Call for Operators

We are actively seeking public node operators, pool operators, and builders to help bootstrap peers and expand the network.

FAQ / Troubleshooting

Quick fixes for the most common connection errors.

  • "Could not fetch chain ID" / "RPC error" - Verify the RPC URL exactly and try a different network (Wi-Fi vs mobile data).
  • Wrong Chain ID - Chain ID / Network ID must be 121525.
  • Explorer does not load - Confirm the exact explorer URL is https://explorer.ethnova.net.
