[center][size=13pt]Attention solo miners. Please update your command line wallets, make sure you did not stuck on alternative blockchain after the fork[/size][/center]
This is Cryptonote fork with some borrows from Forknote and DigitalNote.
The karbovanets (Ukrainian: карбованець, karbovanets, plural: карбованці, karbovantsi), has been a distinct unit of currency in Ukraine during three separate periods in its history. I decided to resurrect it back to life as digital cryptocurrency seeing rise of multiple national cryptocurrencies. I believe it has its right to exist and potential. There is a lot of crypto enthusiasts in Ukraine scattered on different forums and I hope some of them will support this project. I think there is demand in Ukraine for decentralized services which corrupted and ineffective government can’t control, and I hope Karbowanec will find its niche in Ukraine.
The etymology of the name “karbovanets” is by one supposition originated in Ukraine from the ancient primitive way to carve numbers of calculations on a rod. The name even has same stem as english ‘carve’ thus we carve coins not mine them 
Why Cryptonote? Because Cryptonote technology provides fungibility and privacy - most important features of money, it has robust tested tech, verified cryptography and it is easy to start
If someone wish to participate in development and improvement please don’t hesitate to contact.
Binaries will be available in one hour. To allow people prepare.

We hope low transaction fee only 0.0001 KRB will encourage usage and micropayments, especially when value of Karbovanec will grow, blockchain bloat shoudn’t be a problem since we have increased block time to 4 minutes.

Solo mining
How to solo mine with the CLI release
- Download CLI release from
- Extract the release to any folder or directory
- Run the daemon, karbowanecd. Then start simplewallet and open or create a wallet. You can open it later in GUI.
- In simplewallet, type “start_mining x”, x being the number of CPU cores you wish to mine with.
- Check your hash rate by typing “show_hr” in karbowanecd. Hide it by typing “hide_hr”.
Alternatively you can run the daemon, karbowanecd with these flags: --start-mining YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS --mining-threads 3 - much more easy

You can use Minergate GUI miner - just add custom pool in “Other Pools” tab.
Pool mining is working
Pool is up and running in API mode as block explorer. I will open pool for mining later. Let’s begin with solo mining.
