Ethereum PoW (ETHW) is a geth-based PoW fork of Ethereum (chain/network id 10001). It reuses the EthereumType implementation unchanged; the only chain-specific difference is the network id reported by the backend, which the generic eth Initialize() rejects ("Unknown network id 10001").
Adds a thin bchain/coins/ethw package mirroring the existing EVM clones (bsc, base): it embeds eth.EthereumRPC and overrides Initialize() to accept network id 10001. Registers "Ethereum PoW" (+ Archive) in the coin factory, adds configs/coins/ethw.json, updates the port registry, and provides integration-test fixtures.

Hey, thanks for your contribution! Could you please share an address to a live Blockbook instance running ETHW so we can check everything is running as expected? |

Adds support for Ethereum PoW (ETHW), the geth-based PoW fork of Ethereum (chain / network id
10001).ETHW reuses the existing EthereumType implementation unchanged. The only chain-specific difference is the network id reported by the backend, which the generic eth
Initialize()rejects withUnknown network id 10001. This mirrors the existing thin EVM-clone packages (bsc,base): a smallbchain/coins/ethwpackage embedseth.EthereumRPCand overridesInitialize()to accept network id10001.No base-package or other-coin code is modified — only the standard coin-addition points.
