Integration kitSECURITY IS ENGINEERING
Designed to explore
post-quantum ideas.
Aurion uses a custom hash-based signature design. That is a research direction, not a guarantee of quantum resistance. The mining and consensus design still require substantial work before real funds can depend on them.

Your Aurion wallet.
Create an account or unlock an encrypted wallet on this device. Account transfers are signed in your browser; the downloaded desktop software runs the miner.
YOUR ACCOUNT
Sign in to your Aurion account.
Your encrypted wallet is stored privately on Cloudflare. Your login password is verified over HTTPS; wallet decryption happens on your device.
Your new account starts with 0 AUR. Mining or receiving a transfer adds coins. Save your encrypted wallet backup.

AURION MAINNET TRANSFERS
Send AUR.
Sign in to send from your account. Your wallet password decrypts the signing key on this device; it is not sent to the transfer API. Local wallets can export a desktop command.
Network fee: 0.00001000 AUR. Every website send reserves one signing key before signing; a failed attempt still consumes that key. Export the updated wallet after sending.
YOUR EXTERNAL WALLETS
Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Connect your existing browser wallet to view its balance and send native coins. Keys and transaction approval stay in that wallet.
BTC / MAINNET
Bitcoin wallet
Connect a UniSat-compatible Bitcoin wallet. Sending requires your wallet’s approval and network fees.
AURION 0.2 / UNAUDITED MAINNET
Bring your own node.
Download the wallet, storage miner, full node and exchange adapter. The same open source Python implementation runs on all three platforms.
Python edition. These ZIPs contain source code and platform launchers, not standalone installers. Install Python 3.10 or newer from python.org first. Mining nodes automatically join node.aurioncoin.io. The network has known security weaknesses.

VERIFY BEFORE RUNNING
Transparent releases.
Compare your download with the published checksum. Checksums detect file changes; this release is not independently audited or signed with a release key.
RUN / CONTRIBUTE / EXPERIMENT
Join the Aurion network.
Run a full node, create a storage plot, and mine AUR. Your software joins the public seed automatically and validates the ledger on your machine. No market price is guaranteed.
Download and verify.
Install Python 3.10+, download your platform ZIP, and extract it. Open a terminal in the extracted folder. On Windows, use py -3 wherever this guide shows python3.
python3 aurion.py selftest
Choose your wallet.
Create a browser wallet and export it as aurion-wallet.json into this folder, or create one with the desktop command below. Keep the wallet and password private.
python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet wallet new --encrypt
Skip this command if you already exported your wallet. The app refuses to overwrite an existing wallet.
Create a plot and mine.
Replace YOUR_AUR_ADDRESS with your wallet address. Start with 1 MB; large plots take time and memory to create. Leave the node running.
python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet plot create --size-mb 1 --reward-address YOUR_AUR_ADDRESS python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet node --mine --bind 127.0.0.1
A plot has a finite signing capacity. Create a new plot before its signing key runs out.
Check a balance. Send AUR.
In another terminal, inspect the network and send to another wallet. Transfers are confirmed by a later checkpoint produced by the miner.
python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet info python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet balance YOUR_AUR_ADDRESS python3 aurion.py --network mainnet --allow-unaudited-mainnet send RECIPIENT_AUR_ADDRESS 1
Connecting directly to other nodes: the mainnet miner automatically polls
https://node.aurioncoin.io. To use another peer, add --peer https://YOUR_PEER. Match the network name and genesis hash, and read the security status before exposing your node. The current HTTP gossip layer is not hardened for hostile public peers.FOR EXCHANGES / BUILDERS
Integrate with clarity.
A native coin, an inspectable protocol, and an experimental exchange adapter. Prototype deposit monitoring and signed withdrawals with exact integer amounts.

There is no ERC-20 contract. Verify both the network identifier and genesis hash before accepting transactions.
INTEGRATION WORKFLOW
Deposits and withdrawals.
Read canonical checkpoints, track inclusions and confirmations, and roll back deposit credits after a reorganization. Amounts are decimal strings in base units.
Keep keys in your own signing system. The adapter broadcasts signed transactions; it never holds exchange wallet passwords.
No exchange listings or market liquidity are claimed. Current consensus is unsuitable for accepting real deposits.
Start a local adapter.

21,000 AUR.
Your founder allocation.
Genesis allocates 0.1% of the 21 million maximum supply to the founder address, available immediately without vesting.
Prepare your receiving address.
Create and unlock a wallet on this device, then export the public founder configuration. Keep your encrypted wallet backup private.
Open your walletPUBLISHED GENESIS
Genesis is the starting point.
The published genesis names one founder address with 21,000 AUR. Sign in to the founder account to export that wallet and read its actual network balance.
The genesis hash and founder address are published in the network manifest. Exporting another address here creates a proposal and does not change the live genesis allocation.
Holding a percentage does not guarantee a market, a price, or future value.
What remains before mainnetAUR / BTC / ETH
Trading tools.
Know the settlement.
Find another user’s offer, reserve a matching quote, and settle the agreed trade with your wallets. Makers set their own prices; available offers determine the result.
PEER-TO-PEER / AUR · BTC · ETH
Match an offer. Review your quote.
Matching is automatic; blockchain transactions require wallet approval.
Sign in to publish offers, reserve quotes and accept trades. The order book is public. Sign in or create an account
Convert with a matching user.
Enter your maximum payment and minimum receipt. The matcher chooses the best available offer within that budget. A reserved quote holds the offer for five minutes; coins are exchanged during settlement.
Publish your own offer.
Choose the exact amounts you offer and request. Offers are unfunded: posting does not lock coins or prove that a maker can settle.
RESERVED QUOTE / COINS NOT YET EXCHANGED
Review before accepting.
These exact amounts exclude network fees. Check your counterparty and settlement terms before approving any transaction.

AURION TRANSFERS
Send and receive AUR.
Create an account to sign and send AUR in your browser, or export the encrypted wallet for desktop transfers. Incoming transfers are visible in your wallet’s on-chain balance.
Open walletBITCOIN / TOOLING ONLY
Prepare a BTC swap.
The software can lock and claim AUR in an HTLC and generate a matching Bitcoin P2WSH script. Bitcoin funding, signing, watching and refunds require external wallet tooling.
Read the BTC workflowETHEREUM / NOT DEPLOYED
Inspect the ETH contract.
A compiled native-ETH HTLC contract and wallet settlement tools are available. The contract has not been audited or deployed by Aurion. You can deploy it with your Ethereum wallet and verify the resulting address.
Download contract sourceCross-chain swaps inherit the current Aurion consensus weaknesses. Script generation and contract source do not establish safe settlement. Bitcoin and Ethereum support does not make their cryptography quantum resistant.

ETHEREUM MAINNET / MANUAL SETTLEMENT
Ethereum contract actions.
Use your connected Ethereum wallet to deploy the compiled contract or interact with a verified deployment. Use the agreed terms from your matched trade. Each contract action requires separate approval in your wallet.
The supplied contract is unaudited. Every transaction needs ETH for gas and approval in your wallet. A submitted transaction or mined receipt does not establish finality.

Keep the generated preimage private until the agreed settlement step. Timeouts and confirmations must be checked for both chains. Read the full guide before using any swap command.
Download the trading guideRELEASE STATUS / OCTOBER 2026
Trust needs evidence.
Aurion 0.2 is an unaudited implementation. This mainnet was launched at the founder’s request despite unresolved critical protocol issues.
Available in this release
- Password-encrypted, compatible browser wallets
- Public seed connectivity, storage mining and signed transfers
- Windows, Linux and macOS Python packages
- Experimental exchange API and documentation
- 0.1% founder allocation policy
- Source downloads and integrity checksums
Required for real-funds readiness
- A reviewed, storage-enforcing consensus design
- A standard post-quantum signature implementation
- Secure signing state and key rotation
- Independent cryptography and consensus audits
- Hostile-peer, reorganization and recovery testing
- A persistent, independently operated node network
Why the current protocol needs work
Storage proofs do not enforce storage.
Plot leaves can be recomputed from public inputs, and a miner can claim a large plot without allocating the corresponding space. The current prototype cannot establish the advertised storage-based security.
Checkpoint selection can be manipulated.
The producer influences the next challenge through its chosen proof. Chain weight and reorganizations need adversarial analysis and a stronger design.
Signatures are custom and stateful.
The hash-based construction is inspired by WOTS and Merkle trees. It is not a standardized XMSS implementation or a certified quantum-resistant system. Reusing one-time keys can expose funds. Local file locking improves concurrent use but does not make copied or restored wallets safe.
Swap scripts are tools, not a live exchange.
The website matches user-priced offers and guides AUR/ETH wallet settlement with chain verification. Bitcoin HTLC settlement remains manual. The matching and settlement code is unaudited; a quote or accepted match does not exchange funds.
