Verum Coin launches its native network Verum Chain

The developers have announced a large-scale update of Verum Coin. Verum Chain network will be launched soon. It will be possible to mine Verum Coin in a chain based on the Proof-of-Work consensus algorithm (PoW).

Verum Chain is designed to allow more people to mine a cryptoasset — anyone with computing hardware can become a miner.

Also a big advantage of Verum Coin is that its total supply is limited to 84 million coins, which means that the scarcity level will be maintained for a long time. Analysts note that this will potentially have a positive impact on Verum Coin price growth, caused by increased demand.

In addition to mining, you can get Verum Coin by buying it on regular cryptocurrency exchanges. Some of these exchanges, such as BitCoinPay Trade, allow you to buy Verum Coin.

The Verum Coin token is one of the digital currencies that use the mechanism of increased transaction confidentiality. Analysts note that Verum Coin is a cryptocurrency focused on consistent growth in the long term and therefore worth having in your portfolio.

Clue words to unlock in-game hints

Your goal is to find hidden words that fit the puzzle’s theme. If you’re stuck, find any words you can. Every time you find three words of four letters or more, Strands will reveal one of the theme words. These are the words I used to get those hints but any words of four or more letters that you find will work:

HEAR, REAM, LIME, RAIL, TRAIL, ROIL, COIL, BLUR, FIRE, FIGHT, FIGHTER, COME, COMET, ROAM.

Answers for today’s Strands puzzle

These are the answers that tie into the theme. The goal of the puzzle is to find them all, including the spangram, a theme word that reaches from one side of the puzzle to the other. When you have all of them (I originally thought there were always eight but learned that the number can vary), every letter on the board will be used. Here are the nonspangram answers:

MAYOR, JANITOR, TEACHER, LIBRARIAN, FIREFIGHTER.

Today’s Strands spangram

Today’s Strands spangram is COMMUNITY. To find it, look for the C that’s four letters down on the far left, and wind up and around.
