Use Tenrai

Wallets, payments, mining and staking.

Start here

  • What is Tenrai?

    Tenrai is a proof-of-work and proof-of-stake blockchain with post-quantum signatures, final blocks within seconds and its own coin, TRAI.

  • Getting started

    Set up a wallet, receive your first TRAI and follow the payment until it is final. Takes about five minutes.

Wallet

  • Create or restore a wallet

    Create a Tenrai wallet with a 24-word recovery phrase, or restore one from its words or its wallet file, in the Tenrai Wallet or on the command line.

  • Addresses

    What a Tenrai address looks like, how a wallet hands out addresses, and how verification words and ownership proofs protect against mistakes.

  • Send and receive TRAI

    Receive TRAI with an address or a payment request, send a reviewed payment to one or several recipients, merge small coins, burn TRAI and set up alerts.

  • Messenger

    Chat between Tenrai wallets. Start a chat, answer requests, end-to-end encryption, length and costs, blocking, the Messenger ID and the settings.

  • Transactions and fees

    The stages of a Tenrai transaction, when it is final, how fees follow its mass, and what happens to a transaction that does not go through.

Mining

  • Start mining

    Mine TRAI with a GPU or CPU step by step. Get an address, check your hardware, start the Tenrai Miner on a pool or solo and see that it works.

  • Pool mining

    Connect the Tenrai Miner to a pool, understand PPLNS and SOLO payouts, and check your shares and balance on the pool's website.

  • Solo mining

    Mine solo on your own node or through a stratum bridge for several rigs. Every block you find pays its full reward to your address.

  • Miner options

    Every option of tenrai-miner with its default and what it is for. Connection, devices, GPU backends, TenQ mode, statistics, config file and HiveOS.

Staking

  • Staking and delegation

    Stake TRAI with a validator step by step, in the Tenrai Wallet or on the command line. How rewards are earned and paid, unstaking, withdrawal and the risks.
