1. Duino-Coins ("DUCOs") are earned by miners with a process called mining.<br/>
2. Mining is described as using DUCO-S1 algorithm (as explained in the <a href="https://github.com/revoxhere/duino-coin/blob/gh-pages/assets/whitepaper.pdf">Duino-Coin Whitepaper</a>), in which finding a correct result to a mathematical problem gives the miner a reward.<br/>
3. Mining can be officially done using CPUs, AVR boards (e.g. Arduino boards), Single-board computers (e.g. Raspberry Pi boards), ESP32/8266 boards with the usage of official miners (other officially allowed miners are described in the upper part of README).<br/>
4. All miners need to use the difficulty tier made and suitable for them.

5. Mining on GPUs, FPGAs and other high-efficiency hardware is allowed, but using only the `EXTREME` mining difficulty.<br/>
6. Any users using miners on difficulty not suited for their hardware (see the <a href="https://github.com/revoxhere/duino-coin/tree/useful-tools#socket-api">difficulty list</a>) will be automatically throttled by being moved to correct difficulty tier.<br/>
7. Any user that keeps trying to use lower difficulty than it's suited for may get temporarily blocked or permanently banned.<br/>

13. Mining with free cloud hosting services (or free VPS services - e.g. Repl.it, GitHub Actions, etc.) is not allowed as it's unfair for others.<br />
14. A user's DUCOs may be burnt if a violation can be proven.<br/>
15. These terms of service can change at any time without prior notice.<br/>
16. Having alt accounts without a rational reason (e.g. for multi-mining) are not allowed - multiple accounts used on a single computer/network will be blocked, unless whitelisted.<br/>

18. Sending a lot of transactions in a short amount of time can trigger the Kolka system which will rate limit and/or block the user.<br />
19. Community-made softwares need to comply with the rules (terms of service, difficulty tiers, etc.) - abusing the system will lead to blocking of the software and/or the user(s).<br />
