How often does Luckycoin find a block?

The target is one block every 60 seconds, and DigiShield re-aims difficulty at every block to hold that pace. Our own node measured the recent average at 61.5 s as of 2026-10-03; the live tile above updates it every 60 seconds.

How many LKY blocks per day?

About 1,440 at the 60-second target — 86,400 seconds in a day divided by 60. Our node's measured interval of 61.5 s as of 2026-10-03 works out to about 1,405; the actual count wanders with block-time luck and with parent-pool basket shifts, and the live tile computes the real figure from the measured interval.

Why do intervals average above or below 60 seconds?

Two reasons. Randomness: block discovery is a lottery, so short samples scatter widely around the target even on a perfectly healthy chain. And basket shifts: when Litecoin parent pools add or drop LKY from their merge rosters, the work pointed at this chain steps suddenly, and blocks run fast or slow until DigiShield catches up — persistent deviation is exactly what the difficulty-pressure gauge on the difficulty page is reading.

Why is there no list of recent blocks here?

Because we will not borrow one, and there is nothing trustworthy to borrow — no public LKY block-feed API exists and our own public endpoint serves aggregates today. The per-block table ships from our own archive, which already records every AuxPoW parent header: in its first day it attributed 1,172 of 1,173 LKY blocks to named parent pools. When the table arrives, its pool names will be receipts, not guesses.

Luckycoin Blocks — Live Height & Interval

What the block height counts

One block is one 60-second heartbeat of the chain — but on Luckycoin the height is a clock with an eleven-year pause in it. 1,122,651 blocks as of 2026-10-03 works out to about 2.1 years of target-pace heartbeats, on a ledger whose genesis our node holds timestamped 2013-05-22: the original chain ran to block 81,743, slept from 2013 to 2024, and resumed when that ledger was recovered from a backup and continued — genesis included. What makes our figure different from an explorer's: this tip is verified block-by-block by our own node from that 2013 genesis, over the coin's P2P network, both eras included. Nothing on this page is quoted from anyone.

The 60-second target, and what the interval tells you

The interval tile is the chain's pulse against its target. Averaging above 60 seconds means the work currently pointed at the chain is under-delivering against the difficulty it faces — and DigiShield answers within a block, easing difficulty until pace recovers. Averaging below means the opposite: extra work arrived and difficulty is climbing to meet it. Our node measured 61.5 s as of 2026-10-03 — slightly slow, which is exactly why the pressure gauge sat at +0.011 the same day. The signed version of this story is the e_hafeer gauge on the difficulty page, recipe included.

One caveat we keep making because it keeps being true: luck dominates short samples. Block discovery is memoryless, so individual gaps scatter from seconds to many minutes on a perfectly healthy chain. Read the average, not the gap.

Where's the block table?

There is no trusted public LKY block-feed API — the chain's primary explorer didn't even answer when we checked on 2026-10-03 — and our public endpoint serves aggregates today, so this page shows aggregates, honestly, rather than a borrowed table. On most of this family a per-block table would also mean guessed pool names, since chain-ID attribution is provably unreliable (Dingocoin accepts two chain IDs; Dogmcoin's rotates yearly). Here we can already show the honest alternative working: our node records the parent coinbase of every AuxPoW header, and its first day of capture put a readable parent-pool tag on 1,172 of 1,173 LKY blocks — F2Pool, AntPool, ku.pool, LitecoinPool.org and others, counted, dated, from our own archive. The table worth waiting for ships from that dataset, with pool names that are receipts rather than guesses.

Why it matters for miners

Blocks per day times the per-block reward (subsidy plus fees) is the entire revenue stream this chain shares out — and on Luckycoin the per-block reward is random by design, which is why we publish no current-reward figure and the only revenue math we will ever show is measured averages from our archive. Interval drift is also the earliest own-node tell that basket work moved: a parent pool re-aiming its roster shows up here as fast or slow blocks minutes before any third party reports anything. Pool carriage is unusually broad for the chain’s size — Dogecoin’s direct ancestor gets seats smaller coins don’t.
