# The Oasis network The network behind the game is called the "Oasis," and all miner NFTs are connected to this network. The Oasis is a blockchain simulation network and works inside the Minerio metaverse. You can interact with the Oasis network via the terminal hub located in your warehouse. The Oasis network is powered by artificial intelligence and uses machine learning to be as efficient as possible. We will update the Oasis mining proof protocol over time. The basic protocol is POW (Proof of work) ![Renting a warehouse will provide the infrastructure you need to start mining $RIOZ](/files/aebMQykRikyoQCpw6Ock) To connect to the Oasis network, you should have at least one internet connection line inside your warehouse. All warehouses have one free internet connection, so connecting to the network is significant. The main challenge is establishing the most stable and reliable connection to the network. The Oasis network will prioritize warehouses based on: 1. Network quality 2. Network speed 3. Total hash rate 4. Perks 5. Network load 6. Random parameters 7. etc. ![Oasis network](/files/WyNZkSMoA6gLEsRu3X1M) The Oasis network will use A.I. methods like machine learning to ensure the best rates that are fair to every player. However, we should first gather a massive amount of data from the network operation to feed the A.I. machine, which will take time. We will update you about the Oasis updates on our [Twitter](https://twitter.com/MinerioGame). The network will use a consensus protocol beside several other factors (Distinct & Random) to determine the rewards. The proof protocols include and are not limited to: * POW: Proof of work * POS: Proof of Stake * POC: Proof of Contribution --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
