AetherCoin is built on the principle that your keys are your identity, and your security is our priority.
The AetherCoin wallet supports offline private key generation, ensuring your AEC can stay safely stored in "cold" environments.
Every wallet.dat file is encrypted using high-level AES standards, requiring your master passphrase for any outgoing transaction.
AEC implements a rolling checkpoint system that prevents long-range reorganizations and protects the chain from majority-hashrate attacks.
The AetherCoin protocol is completely open-source. We believe that security is achieved through transparency, not obscurity. Every line of our consensus code is available for public audit, ensuring no backdoors or hidden vulnerabilities exist.
Our P2P networking layer uses encrypted handshake protocols to prevent eavesdropping and traffic analysis on your nodes.
