Frequently asked questions
How is Malairte different from Bitcoin?
Bitcoin uses an algorithm (SHA-256) that has been completely dominated by specialised ASIC hardware - normal computers cannot meaningfully participate any more. Malairte uses a CPU/GPU-friendly algorithm so anyone with a regular PC can mine. The two networks are independent and Malairte (MLRT) is its own coin with its own ledger.
Do I need an expensive computer to use Malairte?
No. Malairte was designed from the start to run on everyday hardware. A normal laptop or desktop computer is enough to install the wallet, send and receive coins, and even mine at a small scale using your CPU or graphics card. You do not need a server rack, an ASIC, or a high electricity bill. If your computer is recent enough to run a modern web browser smoothly, it is recent enough to use Malairte. This is one of the biggest differences between Malairte and Bitcoin: Bitcoin mining today needs specialised industrial machines, while Malairte deliberately keeps the door open for ordinary people, families, and community groups to take part on the hardware they already own.
What happens if I lose access to my wallet?
If you still have your recovery phrase — the list of 12 or 24 words you wrote down when you first set up the wallet — you can restore everything. Install the Malairte wallet on a different computer, choose the option to restore from a recovery phrase, and type the words in the correct order. Your balance will reappear because the coins live on the blockchain, not on your old device. If you lose your wallet AND your recovery phrase, however, the coins cannot be recovered by anyone, including the Malairte team. No company controls your wallet, so no company can reset it. This is why writing the recovery phrase down on paper, and storing it safely, is the single most important step.
