CoinMarketCap and Binance have just announced an acquisition. 🤝 Read the open letter from our founder and our CEO here.
Developed by Luxcore, LUX (LUX Coin) is a hybrid cryptocurrency utilizing both proof-of-stake and proof-of-work algorithms to enhance blockchain security and decentralization. Luxcore's hybrid consensus model employs masternodes to provide specialized functions and further secure the chain while providing additional rewards to coin holders. The LUX blockchain enables developers to utilize smart contracts and decentralized applications.
Luxcore continues to develop products for the LUX blockchain including Luxgate (a trustless, peer to peer decentralized exchange) and Luxedge (a decentralized software development platform and repository).
LUX was created in 2017 as a fork of the Bitcoin codebase, and aims to introduce new innovations and services to the broader crypto community with cross-chain and decentralized solutions.
