GameCredits is based on Bitcoin and is a simplified version of it. The mining of the cryptocurrency happens on the Scrypt algorithm according to the PoW (proof-of-work) principle. A new block in the chain is created every 90 seconds and the reward for it makes out 12.5 coins. The maximum planned emission of GAME makes out 84 million coins.

GameCredits utilizes Komodo’s dPOW to secure the blockchain from 51% attacks.
