Current Terracoin Features
These are the current Terracoin features. We are always innovating and adding new features as crytocoin technology improves.
Decentralized governance
Decentralized governance give [[Masternode|masternode] holders the ability to put in proposals and vote on governance objects.
Masternodes
The masternode network is the second tier of the Terracoin network. It processes InstantSend transactions, PrivateSend transactions, and allows owners participate in decentralized governance.
AuxPow
Miners can use something called merge mining or AuxPOW to mine Terracoin while they also mine other SHA256 coins.
Dark Gravity Wave
Dark Gravity Wave adjusts the difficulty every block that is mined. This protects the network against a 51% attack.
PrivateSend
PrivateSend mixes your Terracoin before sending to insure privacy.
InstantSend
InstantSend is currently disabled as of v12.1.7 because of a known exploit. When it is enabled again it will allow for near instantaneous transactions.
Spork
A spork gives Terracoin the ability to avoid hard forks by waiting for consensus before implementing new code.
Sentinel
Sentinel helps maintain decentralized governance objects in the budget system
Fees
Fees are charged for each transaction to increase the intensive for miners and masternodes to participate in the network.
Future Features
These are planned features for Terracoin.
