Ferminux Network Documentation
Operator and user documentation for the Ferminux Network — a sovereign EVM
Layer-1: ChainID 3961 (0xF79), native coin FMX (18 decimals), Ethash
proof-of-work, ~7 s blocks, 6 FMX reward halving every 4.5 M blocks, EIP-1559 from
genesis. The network runs ferminux-geth, a dedicated fork of
go-ethereum v1.10.26 with the Ferminux genesis baked in.
