The Perbug network
A SHA-256 proof-of-work coin — merge-mined with BLOCK, so every share you mine works for Perbug and earns BLOCK for free.

macOS: builds are Apple-Silicon only and ad-hoc signed (not notarised), so macOS may say "damaged". It isn't — remove the quarantine flag: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Perbug-Qt.app
