#MinterPush 0.2—Rewards Hackathon: Subnoscriptions. Results

🥇st place (300K BIP): UNU.push
This service allows you to quickly and easily set different tasks for popular platforms (Telegram, VK, Twitch, YouTube, Vimeo). Plus, users don’t need to make any integrations.

🥈nd place (200K BIP): Minter YYY Cashback
A plugin for the most widely used CMS, WordPress. With it, you can reward your customers and subscribers as well as integrate with YYY and WooCommerce.
An interesting option for the eCommerce segment. We suggest adding support for a wider range of CMS and eCommerce platforms.

🥉rd place (100K BIP): YYY
A browser extension: once the user’s installed it, they can continue surfing YouTube channels, Twitch streams, websites, and search engines they’re used to while receiving rewards for various actions. On the reward distributor’s side, there’s an admin panel with campaign settings and analytics.

🏅 (50K BIP): TapForms
A tool for creating forms (an alternative to Google Forms and Typeform) with the ability to use pushes to reward users for filling them out. It’s a good choice for surveys, reviews, questionnaires, feedback submissions, and other applications. The product comes with strong protection against cheating (tracking of IP and Fingerprint of a browser/device).

🏅 (50K BIP): Dice Time
A bot-powered loyalty system for Telegram chats. After you add it, the bot starts responding to certain commands sent to the chat, for example, "dice time" (the bot makes a throw for that user and rewards them if the resulting number is >1). There’s also a reputation system (newcomers get less in rewards than active old-timers), top-up with custom coins, limits, time intervals for games, and other settings.

🏅 (50K BIP): BIP+
Lets you set up reward campaigns through wallet’s business profile. At this stage, rewards are available for joining a channel/group on Telegram (API, CRM, YouTube, etc. are in progress). Campaign creators can track stats, top up the balance, and edit the campaign itself.

Winners to receive NUT will be selected by a public vote on minterscan.net. Please wait for the announcement.

🧠 The CHEllenge

Evgeny Gordeev challenged all Minter fans to give advice on the network development and is ready to award up to 1M BIP if the idea can show visible results in three months.

How to Receive a Grant
• Outline your idea in a Google Doc
• Lead a public discussion within the community
• Win a vote among the network’s staking wallets (more than 25 percent of the voters must support the idea)
• Pass legal verification and KYC/AML check & sign an agreement

Once the author gets the first portion of the grant through the guarantor, they can go on to implement their idea. Decisions on the next installments will be made based upon weekly progress reports.

If the idea is successfully implemented, the author will receive the full amount.

Algocoins

As soon as within 30 days, algorithmic stablecoins—those that can be pegged to any asset out there—will go live on Minter 1. They will be backed by BIP reserves and therefore liquid across the entire network. You will be able to buy and sell any amount, with the prices recalculated once every minute.

Several teams are already working on implementation, ensuring stability against BTC, ETH, USD, RUB, and bonds of a large gas company. You should understand that the key difference between algorithmic and collateralized coins is that in terms of price, the algocoin is tied to the asset at a 1-to-1 ratio but, at the same time, is not backed by it. Thus, they are not considered financial instruments and require no regulation. Their only job is to be priced at the same level as the original and make operations convenient for the user.

The very “stability” argument is debatable as, for example, the U.S. dollar may be stable for Americans yet absolutely volatile for Europeans who need to make constant calculations and predictions. We prefer to call them algocoins.

Algocoins will be launched on the main network and initially managed by the off-chain stabilizers. With the introduction of MinterEVM, they will switch to decentralized and, what’s especially important, entirely transparent management mechanisms.

Speed of stabilization: every five seconds. We’ll be the first of our kind in the world!

And we have the winners of the #howtobuybip contest!

Minter-Powered BTC

Many of you may have noticed that last Thursday, the BTC coin was issued on the network. It’s a “dummy coin” with minimal reserves that can’t be bought or destroyed—it’s backed by 10,000 BIP, while initial supply matches the maximum one.

Such coins are similar to ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum network, with the only difference being that in our user-friendly environment, the throughput is considerably higher, and transaction fees do not exceed 1/100th of a cent. Plus, all transactions are final in five seconds.

With this coin rolled out, we are one step closer to a fully-fledged DeFi ecosystem. In it, MinterVault will store the top 10 cryptocurrencies for each Mainnet address, mirroring activity that’s happening on the actual chains. Once the MinterVault multisig is released, it will take control over the entire BTC supply, which will be first transferred there.

We can say with great confidence that by the end of this year, you’ll already be able to multi-send Bitcoin to hundreds of receivers in five seconds, spending no more than a couple of cents in total. The case is quite simple: if the user needs a wallet that’s fast and easy to use & understand, they install any of those available on Minter and create their main address, at the same time activating tens of others, such as BTC, ETH, and XRP. From there, the user can not only operate those coins within Minter but also transfer them to the “outer world,” that is, the original networks.

For now, let’s not talk about how we’ll ensure the exchangeability between BIP, customs, algocoins, and cryptocurrencies of other blockchains. But one thing is for sure: even your grandma will find it convenient and clear.

DeFi goes mainstream!

Example of a transfer of 1 Satoshi @ 1/100th of a cent in 5 sec.

DAO

Ten percent of the network’s mining goes to the DAO address, which is managed by Minter Development Foundation (a U.S.-based charitable organization). It is these funds that will be used to sponsor:
– promo,
– development,
– liquidity enhancement,
– legal assistance,
and many other types of activity aimed at increasing the network’s value in general. First and foremost, the DAO‘s mission is to popularize the blockchain itself and show what it can do. Unlike many other networks who do not have grant budgets, we offer a unique opportunity to the most out-of-the-box ideas and experiments that would otherwise not receive funding from commercial structures.

As of today, DAO owns over 200 million BIP and is the largest coin holder on the network.

Minter Network’s First Algocoin

@MinterBITBot that’s been rolled out today is an alpha version of a sidechain service developed for Minter 2 by an independent blockchain team. In early summer already, you’ll be able to exchange BIP for Bitcoin, Ether, and Atom via atomic smart contracts similar to Uniswap. There’ll be a lot of liquidity, and it will all be automated.

Sidechains and smart contracts are the future of interaction between all market players with maximum execution guarantees.

Tests will be run with 25,000 USDT and 25,000 BIT in reserves.

According to our information, this marks the fourth project moving full-steam ahead towards connecting Minter and other blockchains through a single MinterAPI. If you’re currently working on such a product, get in touch with @seo2z should you need any help—right now, decentralized liquidity is our top priority.

Our Focus

Once TON’s American story came to an end, it has become clear what regulators expect from blockchain projects, especially those targeting mass audience. So from now on, there will be three tracks for us to follow:
1. Work with small- and medium-sized businesses
2. In the U.S. (grants) and E.U. (sales)
3. Rewards mechanics exclusively, i.e., services giving coins to their users for completing specific actions

It will be all built as SaaSes on top of public blockchains managed via a uniform MinterAPI.

It’s that very mass adoption, with the only difference being that we’ll enjoy it through businesses who’ll also benefit from applying decentralized databases and guaranteed contract execution conditions.

minter.org will become a hub for solutions provided by all developers from the community and will rely on MinterID, a single account for each user on the network.

Think of it as WordPress (in a good way), which offers businesses flexibility in setting up solutions, be it entirely customized implementations or built-in plugins. Only in our case, everything runs on the blockchain and its native digital coin BIP, which is the one that makes it all work.

Coming soon are releases, implementations, and business cases to brag about. The Internet of Money starts with rewards that one can spend however they want.

Minter Network’s Official Representatives

Starting summer, Minter Development Foundation will launch a program for licensing official representatives who will engage in the development of network’s products. In each country, one to three companies will be established. Upon the completion of certification procedures, they will be able to provide the following services:
– Development of individual solutions for enterprises
– Implementation of open-source solutions presented by the community
– Consultations on the issues related to launching a validator on the mainnet and sidechains
– Legal counseling
– Token purchase & sale coordination
– Participation in conferences, meetups, and other public events

Licenses will be awarded for a period of 12 months, with the option of a further extension. Representatives must cover their activity on a regular basis in the form of reports.

A legal entity registered in the country of representation is a mandatory condition.

MDF will allocate 100,000 to 300,000 BIP per month, depending on the overall activity and results shown.

In countries whose population is more than 100 million people, there may be three representatives; less than 100 million, two; less than 20 million, one. For individual countries with highly active communities, these limits may be revisited.

We kindly ask all interested parties to start preparatory work. We will publish the application form at some point next week. Selected winners will automatically appear on the minter.org website, sorted by country of presence. They will also be able to set their status to, for example, “Minter’s Official Representative in Ukraine” or “Minter’s Rep.” for short.

Each representative will have to specify their company’s key person to obtain the Verified status within the MinterID framework.

On its part, the team will provide representatives with maximum support and access to solutions that have not been released yet.

MDF aims to have no fewer than 25 representatives by the end of year. Through them, the network will enter local markets.

#rep

The BIT algocoin facilitates processes for stores:
– Accept BIP and custom coins, exchanging them for the BIT stablecoin on the fly
– Send BIT to a special address, entering your Ethereum wallet in the payload
– Allow approx. one minute for USDT to be deposited (depends on the Ethereum network’s block time)

It works perfectly with @AnyCashBot, which offers loads of conversion options (thanks Scrooge for the heads-up!)

For more info, visit @MinterBIT

#BIT

Current rate in @MinterBITBot is 1 USDT = 1 BIT = 164 BIP, so 1 BIP is around $0.0061.

Swaps are made in seconds!

How to build a user wallet system, easy and fast

We are often tasked with setting up and managing wallets on users’ behalf, giving them access to interfaces only and therefore leaving them out of the geeky stuff we all love so much.

Use multisig with three signatures: user, verifier, and recovery. To send a transaction, the user creates it via your interface, while Server1 generates a broadcast that contains information about the sender, receiver, amount, first signature, and other necessary parameters. The verifier, which is stored in a secret place, is overseeing the stream of broadcasts. If nothing suspicious is flagged—and you can adjust this setting—it generates the second signature and transmits everything onto the chain.

In case someone hijacks the server with users’ private keys, they’ll not be able to do anything. The hacker will never get to the verifier because only admin knows it exists. In case of an attack, the verifier and recovery address could create new wallets, transfer all funds in a matter of minutes (tens of thousands of transactions), and set new parameters for users.

Whales

The Minter network counts 35 delegators whose stakes are over 10M BIP. A year ago, 10 million would give you 10% of the entire staking, and today, rank you only 35th.

Starting today, Coingecko will be the main source for the rate of BIP: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bip

Everybody please update your systems. And don’t forget to hit that “star” button!

For a decentralized method of BIP price discovery, you may use BIT: https://chainik.io/coin/BIT

For example, as of now, 1 BIT = 142 BIP, which roughly translates to $0.007 per BIP. Once there are more algocoins, an average basket value could be found instead.

Today, we’re revealing some more details about the upcoming CAT Super App.

Each and every one of our development decisions stems from personal experience of Minter blockchain users. Without further ado, enter favorite addresses, a feature that sure has been long awaited!
🐾
You’ll no more have to waste your time looking for and copy-pasting that one address you need. Just add it to favorites and get ready to make transactions in one tap.

Besides favorite addresses, we also introduce a list of favorite coins, which will be shown on the main screen. It will allow you to hide dummy & spam coins and quickly access the ones you actually use.

https://bip.dev now gets BIP’s price from CoinGecko. Nothing else has changed.
