📆 Last week, we announced the date of launch: it will occur on May 15, 2019, at 15:05 UTC. What else did we do?
— Upgraded the blockchain and started a new testnet to pilot the distribution of bonuses and airdrops.
— Added the ability to generate transactions off-line in the console.
— Added the ability to change the mainnet address in the Dashboard and the Early Access Campaign bot.

You can still ask other participants to assign their BIP balances to you—just send a request via your Dashboard. The price is fixed at 1 BTC for 100 000 BIP.

We are disabling this feature in a week. After that, we will finalize the account balances, create a genesis block, and get ready for the Mainnet launch.

Less than 10 days from now, we will launch the main network. We highly recommend you make sure that you have everything you need to receive the coins, especially if you want to participate in the voting that will determine the starting price of BIP.
As soon as May 10, all balances and main network addresses will be finalized. Learn more about each stage in the article below:

Minter Mainnet Launch and Voting for the Price of BIP
Hello! This is Daniil Lashin, the lead developer of Minter team.
Final Call
Starting tomorrow, 10:00 AM UTC, you will no longer be able to ask other participants to assign their BIP balances to you. It is symbolic that from the moment the Early Access campaign concluded, the price of BIP followed the downward trend set by Bitcoin and fell from 6.3 U.S. cents apiece to as low as 3 and is now back at over 6 again.

The final testnet with a new genesis block will be launched on May 12.

For over 18 months, a team of seven developers has been working on the Minter ecosystem. Now that the mainnet launch draws near, our lead developer Daniil Lashin has written an article to give you a little insight into the general architecture and logic of the network operation, as well as to provide the reasoning behind making particular decisions.

A History of Minter Blockchain Development
Website: https://minter.network
⚡️ App Store has approved the official BIP application. We will become the only blockchain to have its own wallet right from the launch of the network! Google Play is next.
Final Preparations
Today, at 10:00 UTC, we disabled the users to re-assign their BIP balances and recorded all addresses and balances to be included in the Genesis file of Minter Mainnet! 🚀
We suggest that you search for your address through the Genesis file and check if your balance is correct.
https://genesis-viewer.minter.network/
Complaints regarding the contents of the Genesis file will be accepted up until May 12, 10:00 UTC. After that, it will be finalized.
Let us also remind you that if you are a member of the pool, then your coins will be first credited to the pool’s address for further distribution. The situation is different with bonuses and airdrops, which will all be sent to your wallet directly on days 15 and 29, respectively.
On May 12, 11:00 UTC, we will run the last testnet with the finalized Genesis file. And on May 15, 15:05 UTC, Minter Mainnet will go live.

Minter Mainnet Launch and Voting for the Price of BIP
While we all wait for the start of the main network, there is still one important thing to settle. It is the initial price of BIP. Let us remind you that it is this price that will be used for buying and selling BIP through the Validators’ Bank. After the main network goes live, the price of BIP will be changing by a maximum of 1% in either direction on a regular 24-hour basis.
The coin’s price will be denominated in USD
We have just started the final testnet, during which the network participants will be voting for the starting price of BIP. The process will last through blocks 1 to 30 000. To vote, you will need to send a transaction with any sum to the address
For example,
Address #1 with 100 BIP in balance and stakes votes for the price of $1,
Address #2 with 50 BIP in balance and stakes votes for the price of $0.1,
Initial price of BIP = 1×(100/150)+0.1×(50/150) = $0.7.
⚠️ We suggest that you use a local console.
You can watch the voting live here: https://coin.minter.network

Mx00000000000000000000000000000000000000A1. In a transaction message, you will have to indicate the price that you vote for—e.g., 0.5 (the value can be as low as 0.01 and as high as 1.00). The weight of a particular vote will be determined by the number of coins in stakes and address balances (as of block 30 000).For example,
Address #1 with 100 BIP in balance and stakes votes for the price of $1,
Address #2 with 50 BIP in balance and stakes votes for the price of $0.1,
Initial price of BIP = 1×(100/150)+0.1×(50/150) = $0.7.

BIP Price
Discover the price of BIP in real time as Minter network participants vote.
DeCentral Bank
Last night, Minter network participants finished voting for the initial price of BIP. The weight of a particular vote was determined by the number of coins in user’s stake, meaning the higher the stake (that is, user’s economic interest within the system), the more powerful the vote.
BIP has settled at $0.32, which is way lower than prices of other DPoS-based projects’ internal coins.
In the history of blockchain, there’s never been a system autonomous enough to set the price of the base coin on its own. We all acted as members of the single DeCentral Bank, setting the terms of exchange with other global on-chain and off-chain assets.
It will be getting more and more interesting: every day, any user will be able to use their stake and send a vote, determining the change in the price of BIP—more precisely, +/-1% or 0% if they find the current price reasonable.
And, of course, it’s completely transparent—anyone can view the votes that are coming in, as well as the addresses and stakes casting them. Should the user want to make their own calculations, they will be able to do so.
The Minter network goes live tomorrow, and with it, the Internet of Money!

v1.0.1
Hello, everyone!
On block height 5,760, the blockchain protection mode that monitors the network status was triggered. Due to that, we were able to locate a vulnerability and prevent the loss of user funds. For more detail about the system, refer to this article on our official blog.
We released an official fix of this vulnerability under the version of 1.0.1. All masternode owners need to update as soon as possible.
For all validators to be able to update in time and avoid missing blocks, we decided to resume operation of the blockchain at 10:00 AM UTC. Until then, all nodes will be in standby mode.
The only operation required is replacement of the binary file.

Here comes the first PCO (Perpetual Coin Offering) on the Minter network.
As part of the program aimed to support the most exciting and active projects, the Minter team has recently delegated 150 000 TEAM coins to the BTC.Secure validator.
We will soon outline in more detail what activity the team itself (not the DAO) plans to encourage and how exactly it will all happen.
It is the very model for supporting the validators that is interesting: the TEAM coin’s price has grown five times since being delegated, which led to an increase in the delegated stake.

100,000 Blocks
Block #100,000 was just generated on the Minter network! It was produced by the BTC.Secure validator. We want to congratulate all members of our community on this little yet significant milestone. The blockchain is stable, all performance targets are met, and transactions are processed in less than five seconds!
At the moment, our team is putting all of its efforts into creating the Validators’ Bank that will enable any participant of the network to buy or sell BIP at a price determined by daily voting! Stay tuned!
Minter, the Internet of Money (IoM)
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish!

#Weekly Community Update (May 27, 2019)
💡 After the launch, the work still continues. That being said, we are returning to the good old update format! We also have some good news for those who failed to submit their address in time. If that is the case with you, use the Early Access Dashboard to send your address to us. Please keep in mind that the process of crediting funds to such wallets is carried out manually and may take up to 3 days. Below is what our team did while you were delegating, exchanging, and sending BIP on the fastest blockchain:
* added the auto-delegation tool in Console
* worked on the data display in Explorer
* resolved an issue with sending transactions via Console and applications
* re-enabled users to submit their mainnet address
* updated and improved Android and iOS apps
Stay tuned!

MDF has been granted the right to trade in USD pairs on the Bittrex exchange. It means that sooner or later, DAO funds will become convertible to fiat, which will help us speed up the network development by paying for non-crypto services, such as advertising on Facebook and Google or participating in exhibitions all over the world.
