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.

So there is a question if a BIP, native coin of Minter, should be stable, valued at $1 for example. The answer is simple: Hell, No!
The nature of money is to be adjustable to the needs of people, or agents as typically referred in economic theories. Money as a grand child of goods must be valued by the demand in the community, and every stabilisation, I mean to the cent, is simply making a market unfair for some of us. When we talk about pegged or algorithmic crypto-dollars we are not stabilising the situation but rather bringing it to one simple understanding for everyone. As then we all convert USD to our local currencies or use it to value services.
BIP can and will be used to create stable coins, but only to serve niche need of communities, projects and countries. And those coins will be stable regardless of the ventures in relatively outside world. For example USD is pretty stable for US citizens but doubled in price for Russians and Ukrainians.
Stability is the key to success of any economy, but comes as a result, but not a goal.
