About

Currently, we provide a Riecoin mining pool. We are also working on other projects and services, which may or may not eventually see the light of day (and explain why the Terms of Service seems to cover things unrelated to mining), so for now, let's simply say that we are just a Riecoin mining pool.

Despite supporting the Bitcoin and Riecoin cryptocurrencies, we don't have any interest in the so-called Web3 or racing for the latest cutting edge and bloated things, and prefer to stick to fundamentals. With a society that is a lost cause, it might be best to build one from scratch, starting from its foundations, than trying to patch it.

Where do the name Stelo.xyz and the logo come?

"Stelo" means star in Esperanto, a constructed language made by Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof in 1887 with the hope to shatter communication barriers with a common and relatively efficient to learn Language. The star is also a symbol of Esperanto.

The Esperantists also once designed a currency, the Stelo, that was intended to become the world's currency. In that sense, it can be seen as an ancestor of Bitcoin, and also inspires the Riecoin Project.

While we are not part of the Esperantist movement nor use ourself the Language, our aspirations are greatly inspired by some of these people who did what they could to truly make the world better. Nowadays, the community is more focused on non fundamental matters which we are not interested in such as using the Language as a mere convenience tool for travelling.

Our logo simply represents the name Stelo.xyz using the meaning of "Stelo" and the colors of Earth.
