Nockchain

Nockchain is a blockchain network that describes itself as the first layer-one chain secured by Zero-Knowledge Proof of Work, a hybrid approach that combines cryptographic privacy techniques with traditional mining competition. The project aims to allow transactions to scale as network difficulty rises, so that throughput grows rather than shrinks as more miners participate. NOCK is the native token of this ecosystem, fair-launched with no pre-mine in May 2025, and is intended to function as a fixed-supply digital currency for the network.

Rather than validators staking tokens or a fixed committee approving blocks, Nockchain asks miners to compete by generating zero-knowledge proofs, with the winning proof earning the right to add the next block — a process the project calls ZKPoW. The zero-knowledge element means block production involves cryptographic proofs that can verify computation without revealing underlying data, layering privacy properties into the consensus mechanism itself. NOCK tokens are issued to miners through this process and are used to transact on the network.

The data stored for Nockchain does not include a protocol fee stream, revenue figures, or any record of fees collected by the network, so fee-based measures are not available on this page. What is recorded is a circulating supply of 2,298,793,984 NOCK against a maximum supply of 4,294,967296, meaning approximately 53.52 percent of the total supply has been issued as of the point-in-time measurement. The remaining roughly 46.48 percent of maximum supply has yet to enter circulation, which is reflected in a fully diluted valuation to market-cap ratio of approximately 1.87 at the same point in time, indicating that a material share of tokens are still to be mined.
