                    ARMAX WALLET & CPU MINER FOR ANDROID
                       Version 0.1.3-testnet (Release)
================================================================================

Armax Wallet & Miner is the official standalone Android application for 
Armaxcoin (ARMX) -- a next-generation decentralized Layer-1 blockchain 
secured by NIST FIPS 204 post-quantum cryptography (ML-DSA-65) and the 
ASIC-resistant ArmaxHash v2 consensus algorithm.

This release provides a non-custodial quantum-resistant mobile wallet alongside 
a high-efficiency native ARM64 NEON CPU miner for mobile hardware.

2. KEY FEATURES & HIGHLIGHTS
================================================================================

* POST-QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY:
  - Native implementation of NIST FIPS 204 ML-DSA-65 quantum-resistant keys.
  - Generates quantum-safe testnet addresses starting with prefix "tar1...".

* SECURE NON-CUSTODIAL WALLET:
  - Private keys and 24-word seed phrases are created entirely on-device.
  - Encrypted via AES-256-GCM using hardware-backed Android Keystore 
    (TEE / StrongBox).
  - No cloud sync, no tracking, android:allowBackup="false" prevents USB 
    dumping via adb backup.

* HARDWARE-ACCELERATED MOBILE CPU MINER:
  - Native C/C++ engine leveraging ARM NEON SIMD vector instructions.
  - Fully integrated Stratum Pool protocol client (vardiff & auto-reconnect).
  - Background foreground service with active notification status and 
    one-click stop controls.

* SMART THERMAL & BATTERY PROTECTION:
  - Real-time battery temperature watcher auto-pauses mining at 45 deg C.
  - "Mine Only While Charging" toggle to preserve battery cycle life.
  - Configurable worker thread count (1 to device max cores; recommended 1-2).

* ACCURATE BLOCKCHAIN ACCOUNTING:
  - Real-time display of Spendable Balance, Confirmed Balance, and Immature
    Mining rewards with block confirmation countdown.
  - Pull-to-refresh synchronization.
  - JSON keystore backup and restore to internal storage.

================================================================================
3. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS & PERMISSIONS
================================================================================

Requirements:
- Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher.
- 64-bit ARM processor (ARM64-v8a) recommended for native mining performance.
- At least 100 MB free storage and stable Wi-Fi / mobile data.

Permissions Requested & Purpose:
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS (Android 13+):
  Required to display the active miner status bar and stop button.
- FOREGROUND_SERVICE & WAKE_LOCK:
  Allows the CPU miner to continue operating when the screen is turned off.
- REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS:
  Exempts the miner from Android Doze mode so background mining is not killed.
- MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE / READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE:
  Used exclusively for exporting and restoring encrypted .json wallet backups.
- INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE:
  Connects to TLS node clusters and Stratum mining pools.

5. QUICK START: STRATUM POOL MINING
================================================================================

1. Open the app and create a new wallet or restore from your 24-word seed / JSON.
2. Tap the "Mine" button on the Home dashboard or navigate to Miner tab.
3. Keep the default Stratum Pool Endpoint:
     stratum+tcp://pool.armax-coin.cloud:3333
4. Set Worker ID to any label (e.g., "phone1", "galaxy", "redmi").
5. Select CPU Worker Threads (recommended: 1 or 2 threads).
6. Enable "Mine Only While Charging" for best battery preservation.
7. Tap "Start Stratum Mining".
8. Monitor accepted shares live in the app or visit the public pool dashboard:
     https://pool.armax-coin.cloud
