#MBANK sets three short-term goals:
– Buying: Enabling users to quickly sell their BIP at a market price
– Cards: Enabling users to buy projects’ coins with a bank card
– Price stabilization: Purchasing any amount of BIP through a single API
P.S. The sell order volume has been limited to a minimum of 100,000 BIP. All orders containing less than 100,000 BIP have been canceled, and funds have been returned to the corresponding addresses.

#MBANK is the only place in our network where one can purchase any amount of BIP—from $1 to $1,000,000, no kidding!—for BTC at a fixed price. The price represents a consolidated offer from the largest participants of the Minter network, or so-called “whales.”
https://bip.dev
With MBank, you can buy BIP 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from anywhere in the world, and with no need to sign up or wait more than a couple of seconds. All you need to do is specify your Minter address (starts with Mx…) and get a unique link for depositing Bitcoin.
The price is guaranteed by the network, and you are hedged against fluctuations even if a Bitcoin transaction takes a whole day to confirm. Your minimum volume is secured once the transaction has gotten into the mempool. But there’s also a pleasant surprise . . .
#MBANK collects all the most appealing offers on the market for you. That is why, in most cases, you receive 20–25% more than the anticipated amount.
The reason is simple: you fill sell orders priced lowest first, gradually moving upward to the average price that is indicated on the website. Remember: you will never pay more than the indicated price as of the moment you send Bitcoin.
Almost all major projects on the Minter network have already started buying with #MBANK: among them are coins such as Golden and Zero, validators such as MPro and Four, and even suites of services such as Enlightenment Group!
Unwilling to risk significant sums, they all choose to trust reliability, speed, and large volumes on #MBANK!

A beta version of #MBANK will launch a mechanism for buying and selling BIP at the official price, for which top 100 delegators will be voting using the #COIN coin. Also with this coin, delegators will be voting for the top projects to be granted the right to sell BIP on #MBANK.
For buyers, the mechanism will not be much different from what is observed today—one sends BTC and gets BIP in return. In the new version though, all BIP purchased via #MBANK will be counted, and users will be able to sell that very amount at the highest priority. The logic is simple: if you buy here, you might as well be the first to sell here.
Top 100 delegators will be the second most-prioritized layer. Every day, they will have to vote for the price and for the best project, thus receiving the right to place any amount for sale. Eventually, their BIP will be sold proportionally to their stake. If a delegator does not vote or place an order, their slot will be given to the Projects layer. That is reasonable: not all delegators will be willing to sell on a daily basis.
Top 10 projects (the number will be extending) with karma’ed addresses and delegators’ votes will be able to place sell orders of any volume. The coins will be sold proportionally to the votes cast in favor (according to the size of the voter’s stake).
The next layer is Team, and after it—if no one is willing to sell—DAO.
The order book of the alpha version will be disabled, but anyone will be able to place a sell order through a direct link and request BTC in exchange or sell custom coins with payments via BTC, other major cryptocurrencies, or bank cards. For scam prevention purposes, only top projects with karma will be allowed to sell custom coins.
Now then, what will the beta include?
– Price voting by top 100 delegators
– Project voting by all participants of the network
– Fast entry and exit for anyone who prefers MBank as a primary exchange spot
– Top 100 delegators selling proportionally to their stake (payouts once every 24 hours)
– Top 10 projects selling proportionally to the votes cast in their favor (payouts once every 24 hours)
What do I do?
– If you are a user: buy and sell through #MBANK
– If you are a delegator: increase your stake, vote for the price and projects, sell proportionally to your share
– If you have a project: sell BIP proportionally to your votes; sell custom coins to your clientele who will pay using a bank card
Haven’t reached the list of top 100 delegators or top 10 projects? Don’t plan to create your own coin or buy anything on #MBANK? The answer is, wait for the instant conversion feature that will be delivered by Liquidity Providers right into your wallet. You’ll be able to choose a currency, provide your bank details, and withdraw the funds. Already today, as many as three Providers have started integration with our resources to implement instant conversion operations.
