Is PINCH a token on another chain?
PINCH is the native coin of Pinch Mainnet, chain ID 5261646. It is used for transfers, transaction fees and escrow agreements on this network. Tokens named PINCH on other networks are not this coin. Any official Pinch contract address on another network is published on pinch.network.
How do I get PINCH?
PINCH is issued only through mining, with no premine. Mine it to your own reward address, or receive it from another address on Pinch Mainnet. Check the chain ID 5261646 before you accept or send PINCH. Holders of the official Base wPINCH can also convert it to native PINCH through the bridge.
Which wallet can I use?
Use an EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Trust Wallet. Add Pinch Mainnet from the network page and keep your recovery phrase in your wallet.
How does an escrow payment work?
The payer locks PINCH for a recipient and chooses a deadline of 1 to 90 days. The payer can approve payment. After the deadline, a claim finalizes the payment to the recipient. If stopped before the deadline, the amount stays locked for 180 days before a refund can be claimed. Both parties can agree on a settlement split.
What determines my mining reward?
The scheduled reward is 50 PINCH in the first era and halves every 2,100,000 blocks. From block 20,000, mining eligibility and the reward tier depend on the reward address balance and the supply-based threshold T(n).
Do I need an account on this website?
No site account is required. Public chain data is readable without connecting a wallet. Transactions are approved and signed in your connected wallet.
