EmberCoin is a PoW/PoS cryptocurrency. It uses the x13 algorithm and has a three minute average block time.

Although 'EMB' was the ticker assigned at the deployment of the EmberCoin Token's smart contract, it is also in use by another asset with a larger market presence and higher trading volume on major exchanges. To avoid confusion in the marketplace, the alternative ticker 'EMBERCOIN' has been adopted for this token. This designation ensures that assets are distinctly identified.
