Nominal Network · Official White Paper

Accessible Mining.
Community-First.

Nominal Network eliminates hardware barriers with a phone-friendly, server-authoritative earning experience. Built for everyone — no rigs, no expertise required. Just one tap.

Mission

Operate a community-centric network where users start 12-hour sessions with one tap, sustained by a constant baseline rate, strict anti-abuse policies, and a transparent reward ecosystem — backed by Alp Digital Studio.

Phase 1 · Live Server-Authoritative 12-Hour Sessions Constant Baseline Rate Anti-Abuse First Alp Digital Studio Exchange Negotiations Active
Section 01

Abstract

Nominal Network is a mobile-first earning system where any user with a modern smartphone can participate in a structured, server-validated mining session simply by tapping a button. Referrals and in-app boosts can increase effective accrual rates. The platform is multilingual, device-light, and fully governed by server-side logic.

  • User-friendly: Clean, simple flows with multilingual UI support across all major languages.
  • Stable baseline: The baseline accrual rate is not planned to decrease following listing.
  • Engagement-driven: Daily tasks, streaks, and seasonal events reward consistent participation — not promises.
  • Device-light: The server validates all session data; the device only handles the UI and notifications.
  • Security-first: TLS-encrypted transport, strict rule enforcement, and comprehensive anti-abuse infrastructure.

Terminology Note: "Cloud mining" in this context does not refer to renting PoW or PoS hash power. Nominal Network uses a server-authoritative session model that accrues off-chain points, which may convert to NC tokens under rules published prior to conversion windows.

Section 02

Problem & Value Proposition

The Problem. Conventional crypto mining requires significant capital expenditure, complex hardware configuration, and continuous energy consumption. These barriers effectively exclude the vast majority of global internet users from participating in digital economies.

Our Solution. Nominal Network replaces capital and expertise requirements with a single tap. Sessions accrue off-chain points at a stable baseline rate, optionally augmented by referrals, boosts, and engagement rewards. No device is taxed; server logic handles all timing, settlement, and fairness enforcement.

The Outcome. A fair, inclusive, and growing community of participants who earn through genuine engagement — not hardware advantage.

Section 03

Product: Flow & Mechanics

3.1 · Session Flow (Server-Authoritative)

  1. Initiation: User taps Start Mining in the application.
  2. Session Record: The server records a verified 12-hour session start timestamp.
  3. Accrual: Points accumulate under server-enforced rules. Device clocks are never trusted.
  4. Settlement: Upon completion, the server atomically credits earned points — duplicate claims are structurally prevented.
  5. Re-engagement: Optional push notifications prompt users to restart their next session.

3.2 · Session Integrity

  • Server time authority: All session durations and eligibility windows are validated exclusively on the backend.
  • Idempotent settlement: Settlement operations are designed to be replay-safe against repeated requests.
  • No computational load: The app performs zero PoW hashing. Participation is session-based, not compute-based.

3.3 · Rate Model

  • Constant baseline applies equally to all users with no planned reduction after listing.
  • Time-bounded boosts function as rate multipliers; they are limited, monitored, and abuse-protected.
  • Referral rewards are governed by anti-spam safeguards and quality-signal verification.

3.4 · Progression & Engagement

  • Elemental progression: Air → Water → Earth → Fire — visual themes and upgrades tied to activity level.
  • Daily tasks & streaks: Consistent participation is recognized and rewarded.
  • Seasonal events: Limited-time community events (e.g., holidays, milestones) with cosmetic and participation rewards.
  • Lucky Wheel: An optional chance-based engagement feature; rate-limited and subject to fairness rules.

3.5 · Device Impact

  • Zero CPU or GPU workload on the device.
  • Battery-optimized UI; all session correctness is enforced by the backend.
Section 04

Economy & Token Design

4.1 · Current State & Token Plan

All earnings accumulated today are off-chain points. The NC token is in development; full conversion rules, timelines, and eligibility criteria will be published in advance of any conversion window.

4.2 · Total Supply

2,500,000,000 NC

Fixed maximum supply of 2.5 billion NC tokens.

4.3 · Distribution Ranges

50–60%
Community Mining & Rewards
10–20%
Ecosystem & Developer Incentives
8–12%
Team & Advisors (Vesting)
5–10%
Liquidity & Exchange Partnerships
5–10%
Marketing & Growth
3–7%
Reserve & Treasury

No 1:1 conversion guarantee. The points-to-NC conversion ratio will be determined proportionally, accounting for pool allocation, participation duration, activity quality signals, anti-abuse filtering, and total supply constraints.

4.4 · Fair Allocation Principles

  • Sybil resistance: Multi-account attempts are detected, filtered, and invalidated.
  • Quality signals: Authentic participation, consistent retention, and verified actions may positively influence allocation weighting.
  • Full transparency: Final allocation rules will be published before any conversion window opens.

4.5 · Monetization

  • Advertising partnerships and ecosystem integrations may support platform operations.
  • Optional boosts and cosmetics enhance user experience and are not financial instruments.
Section 05

Tech Stack & Architecture

  • Client (Flutter/Dart): Full internationalization (i18n), adaptive theming, minimal memory footprint, and integrated performance profiling.
  • Backend (GCP/Firebase): Cloud Functions Gen2, Firestore with server timestamps and TTL, Cloud Tasks/Pub/Sub, Remote Config, and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM).
  • Ad Integration: AdMob (rewarded, interstitial, banner formats) with optional server-side verification (SSV) via signed callbacks.
  • Security Layer: Firebase App Check, Google Play Integrity / Apple DeviceCheck, IP-level rate limiting, device fingerprinting, and behavioral anomaly detection.
  • Observability: Centralized logging, Cloud Error Reporting, custom business metrics, BigQuery exports, and proactive alerting.
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions pipelines with staged release channels (internal → closed beta → open beta → production) and controlled rollouts.
  • Privacy & Compliance: TLS throughout, data minimization principles, consent management platforms (CMP) where required by regulation.

5.1 · Anti-Abuse Engineering

  • Server-side validation: Every session start, accrual event, and settlement is validated server-side with replay protection.
  • Risk scoring engine: Device integrity signals, behavioral anomaly patterns, and referral graph topology are evaluated in real time.
  • Progressive enforcement: Warnings → Rate limiting → Cooldowns → Suspension → Permanent ban, with a documented appeal pathway at each stage.
Section 06

Security, Privacy & Encryption

  • Transport security: All client-server communication is TLS-encrypted. No plaintext transmission of any data.
  • Access control: Firestore security rules combined with server-side function validation enforce least-privilege access at every layer.
  • Data minimization: Only data strictly necessary for platform operation is collected and retained, in accordance with GDPR and KVKK principles.
  • Incident response: Compromised or abusive accounts are frozen or suspended immediately; all enforcement actions are logged to auditable records with an appeal process.
Section 07

Fairness, Anti-Abuse & Single-Account Policy

  • 1 Person = 1 Account. Operating multiple accounts is strictly prohibited and subject to enforcement.
  • Device & session validation: Device fingerprints, IP/DNS patterns, and behavioral anomaly scoring are applied continuously.
  • Automation controls: Root access, emulator environments, and bot-pattern interactions are flagged and actioned.
  • Referral integrity: Self-referrals, referral loops, and organized referral farms are detected and nullified.
  • Graduated sanctions: Warning → Temporary suspension → Permanent ban; balances obtained via abuse are subject to partial or full invalidation.

All fairness enforcement mechanisms exist to protect genuine users. Platform integrity benefits every honest participant.

Section 08

Community & Official Channels

  • X (Twitter): Official announcements, platform updates, roadmap milestones, and release notes.
  • Telegram: Primary community hub — real-time chat, moderated announcements, and direct support.
  • App Store Listings: Transparent public release notes and version update disclosures.

All official channel links will be published in the final version of this document and on the official website.

Section 09

Compliance, KYC/AML & Regional Policies

  • KYC (Pre-Listing): Identity verification may be required prior to token distribution, subject to regional regulatory requirements. Eligible regions and detailed procedures will be announced in advance.
  • AML Controls: Suspicious activity monitoring and enforcement measures are implemented where legally applicable.
  • GDPR & KVKK: Lawful basis for all data processing, full consent management, and user access/erasure rights are supported.
  • Platform Policies: All communications, advertising, and in-app content comply with applicable app store and platform policies.

Nominal Network provides no income guarantees. Token prices, returns, and liquidity are market-determined and are not promised by the platform.

Section 10

Risk Disclosure

  • Technical Risk: Software defects, infrastructure outages, and adversarial attacks may affect platform availability or data integrity.
  • Regulatory Risk: Changing legal landscapes in various jurisdictions may impose restrictions on participation or token distribution.
  • Market Risk: NC token price is subject to market volatility and is not guaranteed by the platform. Liquidity at listing cannot be promised.
  • Operational Risk: Anti-abuse enforcement may reduce or invalidate balances where manipulation is detected.
  • Conversion Risk: The final points-to-NC conversion ratio is determined by a multi-factor model and may differ from user expectations.
Section 11

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to keep my phone active for 12 hours?

No. Session timing and point accrual are managed entirely by the server. Your device only needs to initiate the session and display the interface — it does not need to remain open or connected throughout.

Can I claim points before the 12-hour session completes?

The default model settles points upon session completion. Any partial settlement rules, if introduced, will be explicitly announced in advance.

Are accumulated points converted 1:1 to NC tokens?

No. There is no guaranteed 1:1 conversion. The conversion ratio will be calculated proportionally based on pool size, participation quality, anti-abuse filtering, and total supply constraints. Full rules will be published before any conversion window.

Why is KYC required?

KYC requirements exist to satisfy regulatory obligations and to ensure that token distribution is conducted fairly and compliantly. Requirements vary by region and will be communicated clearly in advance.

Will the baseline accrual rate decrease after listing?

This is not planned. Long-term sustainability is maintained through pool allocation design, platform monetization, and distribution mechanics — not by reducing user rewards.

Is Nominal Network a scam?

No. Nominal Network is a legitimate, Phase 1 community mining application built and backed by Alp Digital Studio. The project is in active exchange negotiations and publishes its mechanics, tokenomics, and enforcement policies transparently in this white paper. See Section 13 for full legitimacy documentation.

Listing Timeline, Earnings & Conversion Policy

15.1 · Listing Timeline

Nominal Network's exchange listing process is targeted for completion in Q4 2026. Exchange negotiations currently underway are expected to conclude within this period, at which point a definitive listing date will be formally announced across all official channels and updated in this white paper.

The primary factors that influence listing readiness are:

  • Active user count — sustained organic growth and verified participation rates
  • Total download volume — platform reach and adoption scale
  • Total NC to be distributed — pool allocation balance and distribution model completeness
  • Conversion ratio determination — final points-to-NC ratio based on supply and participation data

15.2 · Conversion Ratio & Earnings Policy

The points-to-NC conversion ratio will be calculated in relation to the maximum token supply parameters, with the primary objective of ensuring that no active participant suffers a loss of earned rights. The platform's stated goal is to maintain a conversion ratio that is favorable to the community.

Factor Description Impact
Pool Allocation Community mining allocation (50–60% of total supply) Defines the total NC available for conversion
Participation Duration Total verified session hours per user Influences individual allocation weighting
Anti-Abuse Filtering Removal of fraudulently accrued points Increases effective ratio for honest participants
Download & User Metrics Platform scale at time of listing decision Key input for exchange negotiations and listing timing

Important: Nominal Network does not guarantee a specific token price, return on participation, or liquidity at listing. Token market value is determined by open market conditions. Nothing in this white paper constitutes financial or investment advice.

Section 16 · New

Active Users & Platform Abuse Policy

Nominal Network distinguishes between two categories of participants, each subject to distinct policies during the listing and NC distribution process.

Category 1 — Legitimate Participants

Users who participate in the platform consistently and without engaging in any form of manipulation, automation abuse, or policy violation are classified as legitimate participants. These users represent the core community that Nominal Network is built to serve.

  • NC balances will be transferred without restrictions during the listing and manual distribution process.
  • Eligible for priority processing in the NC distribution queue, ranked by activity duration.
  • No additional verification burdens beyond standard KYC where applicable.
⚠️
Category 2 — Policy-Violating Users

Users found to have engaged in referral system manipulation, bot-assisted accrual, emulator-based session fraud, or any other form of platform exploitation will be classified as policy-violating users and subject to the following sanctions during listing and distribution:

  • Accounts will be suspended during the listing and manual NC distribution period.
  • Only verifiably clean, unmanipulated session earnings will be eligible for conversion; balances attributed to fraudulent activity will be invalidated.
  • Delayed access penalty: Policy-violating accounts will not receive NC balances at listing. Eligible clean balances may only be claimed one (1) full year after the official listing date, at the NC market price applicable at that time, subject to account activity review.

Note: This delayed access penalty reflects the platform's long-standing commitment to protecting honest participants. The one-year delay is not punitive in isolation — it is a structural safeguard that preserves ecosystem integrity and market stability.

Section 17 · New

NC Distribution Process

Upon confirmation of the final NC distribution date — which will be communicated across all official announcement channels and updated in this white paper — the distribution process will proceed in the following structured sequence:

  1. Test Distribution Phase
    A controlled batch of test NC tokens will be dispatched to the forthcoming Nominal Wallet application to validate wallet infrastructure, confirm transfer mechanics, and identify any technical issues prior to full distribution.
  2. Manual Distribution — Activity-Based Priority
    NC tokens will be distributed manually to verified participants who have created a Nominal Wallet account, beginning with users who have the highest cumulative active session days on the platform. Distribution proceeds sequentially based on this activity ranking.
  3. Priority Criterion — Active Days
    Platform activity duration is the primary determinant of distribution priority. Users with sustained, long-term, and consistent participation will always be prioritized over more recent or intermittent participants.

Wallet Requirement: NC tokens can only be distributed to users who have created and verified a Nominal Wallet account prior to the distribution window. Instructions for wallet creation will be published through all official channels in advance of distribution.

Distribution Timeline: Full distribution schedules, wallet creation deadlines, and eligibility criteria will be formally announced once the final listing date is confirmed. Monitor all official Nominal Network channels for updates.
