Tokenomics & Whitepaper

DER is issued gradually through verified mining, not pre-minted supply.

Derham Coin separates the internal mining ledger from on-chain settlement so users can see what is mined, what is verified, what is pending mint, and what has reached the public blockchain.

1. Public Contract Identity

DER is represented on BNB Smart Chain as a BEP-20 token. The public contract is visible on BscScan, and the published source code is verified there. This page explains how the live platform connects mining records, internal balances, and blockchain settlement.

Network

BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20)

Source Status

Source code verified on BscScan as an exact match.

Contract Model

Upgradeable proxy structure with public explorer visibility.

2. Maximum Emission Cap

The intended maximum DER emission cap is 100,000,000,000 DER. The full cap is not issued at launch. DER is intended to be minted progressively as eligible mining activity is verified and approved through official minting cycles.

The on-chain supply shown by BscScan may be much smaller during the early launch stage because only already minted DER appears on-chain. Internal mining records and pending balances are not the same as circulating on-chain supply until an official settlement or minting cycle is completed.

3. Proof-of-Mining Emission Model

  1. A user participates in an available mining package and creates platform mining records.
  2. Completed mining sessions are reviewed and grouped into an internal verification batch.
  3. The platform creates a Root Claim batch and generates proofs for eligible records.
  4. Eligible DER is distributed inside the platform ledger as Pending Mint until external settlement opens.
  5. During an official mint cycle, the admin-controlled batch process mints verified DER on-chain according to platform policy and contract limits.

4. Internal Ledger vs. Blockchain Balance

Internal Mining Ledger

Shows mining activity, verified distribution, pending mint amounts, and internal account balances. It is the operational ledger used before blockchain settlement.

Pending Mint

Represents DER that has passed platform verification but is still restricted from external withdrawal until an official mint or claim window is active.

Minted Total

Represents the free internal DER balance after restricted pending amounts are separated. External use still depends on active withdrawal and settlement rules.

On-Chain DER

Represents DER that has been minted or transferred on BNB Smart Chain and can be checked independently through BscScan.

5. Fees and External Settlement

When external settlement is enabled, users are expected to pay the real BNB Smart Chain gas required by the network. The platform may also charge a small platform fee to cover operational costs. Any fee must be displayed before the user confirms a withdrawal or settlement request.

6. Reserve and Liquidity Programs

Reserve participation and liquidity-support contracts are separate from mining. They may involve lock periods, pool rules, and different risk levels. They must not be understood as guaranteed income. Rewards, if available, depend on the actual program rules, pool performance, and platform risk controls.

7. What DER Is Not

Not Fiat Money

DER is not the UAE dirham, Moroccan dirham, or any government-issued currency.

Not Guaranteed Profit

No mining package, reserve program, or wallet balance should be treated as a guaranteed return.

Not Hardware Mining

Platform mining is based on internal participation records and verification, not proof-of-work hardware mining.

Not Fully Circulating at Launch

The 100 billion cap is an emission ceiling, not a statement that all DER already exists on-chain.

8. Transparency Commitments

  • Publish the public contract address and explorer link on key platform pages.
  • Explain the difference between internal ledger balances and on-chain DER.
  • Keep wallet, mining, minting, withdrawal, and risk policies publicly accessible.
  • Publish security scan or audit results when available, without claiming an audit that has not been completed.
  • Announce material policy changes before they affect user withdrawals or settlement rights.

9. Current Launch Status

The DER contract is public on BNB Smart Chain and source-verified on BscScan. The live platform uses internal verification and admin-only batch minting for sensitive mint operations. External withdrawal, claim windows, audits, liquidity expansion, and broader compliance material must be presented clearly as launch-stage items when they are not yet fully open to all users.

10. Required Reading

Before participating, users should read the Wallet Policies, Risk Disclaimer, Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy. These documents define the operational limits of DER balances inside and outside the platform.
