Perpetual Coin Offering

While the whole world has gone crazy about IEOs (Initial Exchange Offerings), a new form of ICO, we want to tell you how to launch your own coin on the Minter network (@MinterTeam) easily and quickly and raise funds with a predictable capitalization. No “lottery tickets” or price downturns.

Check out our how-to article — https://medium.com/@MinterTeam/how-to-create-your-own-coin-the-definitive-guide-9186a5c41415
One of the most famous attempts to “cross” cryptocurrencies and banks was the launch of familiar Visa and MasterCard bank cards, which holders could replenish with cryptocurrencies. Such tools have become very popular among crypto players in 2017 as an easy way to convert digital currencies into fiat. But today, projects involved in the release of cryptocurrency “plastic” cards are increasingly resembling an endangered species. Shift Card, a company that has been issuing Visa cryptocurrency cards since 2015 together with Coinbase, will cease operations on April 11. What do such projects offer, and why did the demand for their financial instruments turn out to be insignificant?

The blockchain industry is not limited to the distributed ledger technology as many companies tend to use different innovations. Perhaps one of the most mysterious developments remains the quantum blockchain. The launch of the first network built on a quantum DLT was announced in spring 2017 by a team of the Russian Quantum Center. The concept of a “quantum threat” concerning the blockchain is also known in the community. It means that when building a quantum computer of a specific power, it can almost instantly decipher the algorithms of blockchain networks, such as that of Bitcoin.

The crypto spring is being felt more clearly in the crypto market not only with warming outside the window but also with the activation of many investors, who, following Bitcoin, raised the value of most other crypto assets last week. The reasons for the growth have not yet been precisely established, but it can already be assumed that the robotic trading systems have noted an increase in the number of transactions for the purchase of digital assets, which began because of a number of favorable news about the largest projects in the sector. In particular, this was influenced by the outcome of the Deconomy conference, as well as a number of legislative initiatives to regulate the crypto industry adopted in the U.S. and EU.

Binance is one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges in the market, which was founded in Hong Kong in 2017 by the famous crypto entrepreneur Changpeng Zhao. In just six months since the launch, the exchange entered the top among competing platforms, and today, its daily trading volume is more than $1.7 billion. Many digital currency holders choose it because of the wide range of trading instruments, the user-friendly interface, high level of asset protection, and the fact that using the BNB internal token for paying fees reduces their size by 25%. The official Binance app was released in September 2017 and is available for free download on Google Play and the company’s official website.

‌‌‌‎🔥 We have started to deploy Minter Mainnet Console available at console.minter.network. You can already create a new wallet for the main network!

Do not forget that a seed phrase (12 words) generated upon the wallet creation is the key to all your funds. That is why we highly recommend you store it in a safe place and use it for authorization in official services only.

You can now enter the address (starts with Mx…) in your Dashboard. It is this address that your BIP will be credited to after the main network goes live.

The guide below has all you need to know:
