NewYorkCoin (NYC) is an open-source, decentralized Layer 1 blockchain and cryptocurrency, launched on March 6, 2014. Built as a Litecoin fork, it is designed for fast, fee-free payments worldwide. The network uses Scrypt proof-of-work, with block confirmations approximately every 30 seconds and no transaction fees. NewYorkCoin is community-governed, with no pre-mine or central authority, and its transactions are described as anonymous. Its development is supported by volunteers and the New York Coin Center.
The project offers official full-node wallets for Windows, macOS, and Linux, plus a non-custodial Android wallet with multi-coin support. Users can explore the blockchain, access the source code, and trade NYC through several centralized and decentralized exchanges. Businesses can use NYC for retail and online payments; the community is developing point-of-sale integrations, payment APIs, and e-commerce plugins. Ongoing upgrades include work on MimbleWimble privacy features, modern Bitcoin Improvement Proposal compatibility, and an expanded wallet ecosystem. Community members can participate through Discord, Reddit, GitHub, social media, and the project blog.
