TKMChain is building practical blockchain services, not only a coin.

At the base, TKMChain is a proof-of-work blockchain using RandomX. The goal is to make mining accessible to normal machines while keeping the network anchored in measurable work. The chain remains compatible with Ethereum-style accounts and RPC flows, so users can send TKM, developers can deploy contracts, and wallets can connect using familiar Web3 methods.

The project also adds native ideas that are specific to TKMChain. Rotating Kings create a visible reward relationship between the protocol and active community participants. Signed checkpoints strengthen peer security. The governance disclosure ledger gives future users a way to audit public promises, roadmap statements, checkpoint decisions, and fund commitments without relying only on posts that can be edited or removed.

Privacy and quantum resistance are implemented as protocol features, not just website promises. Shielded transactions use encrypted commitments, nullifiers, a TKMSHIELD1 data envelope, and Groth16 proof verification. Post-quantum accounts use ML-DSA-87 keys, version 4 keyfiles, and the PQTkmTxType typed transaction path.

The institutional suite gives schools, banks, agencies, enterprises, cooperatives, and public bodies a way to publish verifiable proofs for credentials, documents, invoices, procurement, grants, and audit disclosures without exposing private files on-chain.

TKMChain is also experimenting with phone-number identity. Buckets are created by MainKing through the daemon, operators buy buckets, users buy numbers, and registered SIM slots can send messages or start calls. This makes the phone system part of the network infrastructure instead of a separate website database pretending to be ownership.

Two contract paths: EVM familiarity and TVM visibility.

TKMChain keeps the EVM path for compatibility with wallets, token contracts, and Web3 libraries. That matters because developers should not need to learn a completely new account model just to test or deploy simple applications.

TVM support gives the project another contract surface for native work. The explorer is being updated so deployed TVM artifacts can be inspected after mining. That same public-verification approach supports institutional records, token contracts, and native TVM work without hiding important state inside private services.

Public decisions should be auditable years later.

Blockchains preserve balances and transaction history, but they do not automatically preserve the explanation behind project decisions. TKMChain adds a signed governance disclosure ledger so important statements can be published with hashes, signatures, timestamps, previous-hash links, and optional transaction anchors.

This is useful for Rotating King selections, checkpoint decisions, roadmap statements, hardfork notices, security announcements, and development-fund commitments. The purpose is not to replace consensus; it is to make public commitments harder to silently rewrite.

MainKing signed disclosures give the community a permanent reference point. A website can be redesigned and forum posts can change, but a signed hash gives users something stable to compare against the original document.
