reserved for bounty or others

Nice Project. Looks really good!

I'm checking it out now.  8)

---

I like this.

Will you guys deploy a Like & Edit button for posts, on the social side?

Can't wait to get a couple of API's hooked up and check the trading terminal

Post ranking would be cool

And as many exchange APIs as possible!

Glad to hear!

Yeah sure adding a Like button would be fairly trivial, though we haven't considered implementing Edit.




Please, be our guest!

We've integrated Bitfinex, Bittrex and Poloniex for now. Binance will be next, and more on the way.



Do you mean like a ranking of traders' performance?

I was thinking more just the post itself, upvotes and downvotes on the content. Will help identify cheap shill posts etc

Sort of like reddit?

Pretty cool idea, crowd-curating the top voted content.

Yeah helps filter out the dodgy stuff

Any news on eqt swap?

More info on the swap will be released later in the month, along with our whitepaper.

Congratulations Aluna!

Good looking project, nice to see a beta platform working.
Keen to see this one evolve.

Is there a way to see all users on the platform ?
I may be missing it. I can only see the top (10) followed at the moment.
Thanks!

Not at the moment. You can currently only find users who post insights, most followed, as well as those who have positions open, all from the homepage.

We will add a leaderboard later which will show all users and their trading performance.

just checking this one out. seems fairly good with a solid team behind. Will be keeping an eye on

It would be cool if there was a way to short everyone offering copy trading.

when will the bounty start?
and if you will make a translation bounty can i reserve for Indonesian language?

---

on which market/exchange that Aluna will support?

Trading against the signal providers? Sounds interesting 8)

---

More info will be shared in the following weeks, giving users multiple ways to earn tokens starting in Q3 this year.


Aluna currently supports 3 exchange: Bitfinex, Bittrex, and Poloniex.

is there any more information about this project?
since in the first post, there is little information which is
"Aluna combines the best of both trading terminals and social networks to create the next-generation social trading platform"

I'm still confused about how the social trading platform works?

We will be sharing more info and updating the thread over time.

For now, please check out our first founder's video which gives a good overview of the Aluna platform: https://youtu.be/Q7F8iHGqBPM

---

Will be sharing our whitepaper really soon. Stay tuned!

Hey Hey Hey!

Aluna Social looks really nice! still needs some features added but I can see you are all over that.

Need a good copy trade platfom in crypto.

Well done! Ill be watching for further developments.

Is there more info on the token? What's the use for the token?

Hey @mangolife thanks for the support! Yes we are hard at work and are determined to produce the best trading platform around, and the copy-trading aspect is certainly important.

@3rojan The initial focus is on rewards, providing users the opportunity to earn tokens in return for a positive contribution to the platform and community. The goal here is to establish basic circulation, ensuring that a large proportion of tokens are distributed to the most active users, i.e. those creating value for the platform. The barrier to entry for adoption is lowered since new users need not buy tokens to participate in the full token economy.

Tokens can be spent on the platform, providing immediate benefit to active users through discounted or free access to premium features.

Furthermore, we will have a staking option, and a reputation management aspect etc..

Version 1.0 of the Whitepaper coming very shortly!

---

The underlying motivation behind Aluna’s social network is to improve transparency between traders, enabling participants to make more informed trading decisions based on a wealth of unique and actionable sentiment data.

"Our vision is to improve transparency across markets, establish a trading community incentivised to share data, and create an environment where traders can leverage positive social feedback loops to improve their overall performance."

---

After much adieu, we're ready to release version 1.1 of our whitepaper! Check it out  :D

http://aluna.social/WP.pdf

We're excited to share our latest video release  :)

We wanted to show you just how easy it is to place an order on our gamified social trading platform, Aluna. Let us know what you think!

Hey Aluna fans! There are many added benefits of our paid membership platform, but there's a TON that comes built in!

What can I do with a free membership?
With a free membership all users can:
Trade via one api link on one exchange platform
Participate on the Insights social feed
Copy or Counter trade other traders
Use the Aluna Telegram trading bot.
Earn ALN tokens via the badge system
Participate in social, binary and leaderboard staking

Thanks, will have a look at the whitepaper over the weekend.. will be interesting to see how the token and platform come together

Thanks for the interest! We're excited about how it is coming together too :)

Also, don't forget to watch the short video we posted about how to use the platform a few days ago.

Great to know about the swap for EQT holders!
Didn't know about that and just checked the whitepaper now.

any estimated date for it? when in Q3?

Hey Lucas, we think its pretty cool too :)

Unfortunately there is no set date for the token swap yet. We will make sure to announce on bitcointalk first though. Stay tuned!

---

Although our token sale isn't until later this year, we wanted to share a few of the details about what that will look like:

30,000,000 ALN is allocated for the Token Sale. This will be divided into 2 phases and held in Q4 2019,

Phase 1:
5,000,000 ALN
$500,000 raise
US $0.10 per token

Phase 2:
25,000,000 ALN
$5,000,000 raise
US $.20 per token

Hard cap: $5.5 Million USD

Both ETH and BTC (based on market rate) are accepted.Although there is a fixed price, this may change depending on market demand, as all unsold ALN will be airdropped to existing sale participants pro-rata. This creates an auction and price discovery mechanism, where the token price and project value are ultimately determined by market demand. ALN is distributed to sale participants within 7 days from the token sale.

what about Aluna's bounty program? do you have it?
I see on Twitter that this project has been around since 2017, and it's amazing if it still tries to be the best, until now

awesome, will keep an eye here and on twitter.

can you please communicate a bit more on EQT thred?
things are quite silent there lately.

Hey @generous- Yes we will be running a variety of bounties as follows:
Yes we know it is an uphill battle with exchanges, but we think we have a unique angle that will drive considerable growth and liquidity :)

5,000,000 ALN is allocated to reward ambassadors of Aluna Social who contribute to the overall health and growth of the Aluna ecosystem.This campaign will begin in Q1 2020 and release 250,000 ALN monthly for 20 months, funding a myriad of community activities and rewards the community for their contribution and efforts.Community bounty activities include, but are not limited to:

Bug bounties
Promotional campaigns (bitcointalk signature campaign, giveaways, contests etc.)
Social media community management
Airdrops

@Lucasgabd
We don't intend to stay active on the EQT thread. For everything Aluna related please check here and on our twitter, telegram etc..

---

Hey! In case you were curious- the 100,000,000 ALN token allocation is as follows:

Token sale (30%)
Team (10%)
Airdrop (5%)
User Acquisition (25%)
Liquidity Pool⁹ (5%)
Ambassador Campaign (5%)
Marketing (20%)

I love the simple and clean interface of the platform!!

I've been using the free membership lately, but i'm curious about how much the paid membership costs, and what would be the benefits of upgrading thanks, and keep up the good work :))

Hey @f3b0 thanks for the support, we appreciate it!

Premium subscription features will include linking multiple API keys, access to detailed platform sentiment data, advance notice of and unrestricted access to periodic special offers.

The monthly subscription for the platform is $19.90, but stay tuned as we will likely have some special offers around the launch  ;D

Sounds well exciting!

For sure. Check out our whitepaper and let us know what you think  :D

Just checked out the whitepaper... when are you going to release ALN token?

We're planning for the Token Generation Event to happen in September 2019.

Hey so I just checked out the website and whitepaper.. What are these "insights" i've read about, and how can i use them?

Hey there, Insights is Aluna Social’s social feed featuring short-form posts gives users an outlet
to share their opinions about the market.

If you want to post your own insight, click the Aluna logo on the bottom left corner of your screen. You will be taken to a menu page which accesses other pages. Click on Insights. At the top left hand corner of the screen you’ll see the words “How do you feel about the market today?” Click on the words and write a post. The Post button at the top right hand corner of the screen will light up. Click on it when you’re ready to post. Your insight will immediately appear on the timeline.

Let me know if you catch any snags, but it should be relatively straight forward  :D

nice! what will be the conditions for the airdrop?
and inwhich exchanges you plan to list?


thanks for clarifying

Hey Lucasgabd,
The first distribution event to look forward to is the Airdrop campaign.
This is scheduled for Q3 2019.
In order to qualify for the airdrop, users will need to sign up on aluna.social and carry out activities to reach badge level 1 in our reputation system.

As for exchanges, we can't speak about those at this moment yet. Stay tuned!

Keep up the good work!

I had another question about the funds you raise during the ICO- what exactly are you going to use them for exactly?

Good question-

ETH and BTC raised from the first phase will be used to develop the Aluna Social platform as laid out in the roadmap. A proportion of the budget will be allocated for branding and marketing to ensure that we reach active traders and trading communities and attract them to the platform. Remaining ETH and BTC raised will be used to maintain and upgrade the Aluna Social platform, expedite the roadmap and grow the team, expand our offering and extend to new markets. This also enables us to invest more resources in R&D to decentralise our platform infrastructure, and find new ways to enable traders using the latest advancements in technology and the crypto space.

Thanks for this  :P

I'm curious about the staking process- what is social staking and why would I want to do it?

Social staking allows users to participate in a parimutuel pool without the full commitment of providing their API key and copy-trading. Users do not follow a particular trader but instead stake tokens to predict if individual margin trades will end up closing in a profit or at a loss, and are rewarded when correct.

We go into quite a bit more detail starting on page 18 of the whitepaper. Take a look:     https://aluna.social/WP.pdf

awesome, thank you for the information.

what are the requeriments for reaching badge level 1 on the reputation system?

Hey, another good question-

To attain Badge Level 1, users must complete a minimum of 3 tasks from the following list:
Refer a friend
Post on InsightsConnect one API key
Execute a trade (via UI or bot)
Connect Telegram bot
Connect Twitter account
Follow @AlunaSocial Twitter
Join @AlunaSocial Telegram group

These are one time actions, and are not part of the ‘point’ system required to earn and maintain higher badge levels.

awesome! thnks for the info again!

it's quite a lot but I understand too, great idea for qualifying the users.
any info already on how much it'll be the airdrop?
I'm definitely interested.

Hey Lucas, up to 5m ALN (5% of the total max supply) will be distributed during this airdrop event.

The lone wolf dies, but the pack survives - Everyone is a Trader

https://medium.com/aluna/everyone-is-a-trader-8c6d64d6a1e9

Hi,

Are there any news regarding the EQT swap ?

Thanks

would like to know that too
time is getting closer, isn't it?

---

checked the thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1849442.new#new

entered the site but there's no option for the swap, how to do it?
where is the option to claim the swap?

Today we are happy to announce that we have updated our Settings Page so users can connect their Web3 wallets, such as MetaMask, to their Aluna Social accounts. Doing so will enable users to receive Airdrops, take part in the Token Swap, receive rewards, and participate in other Web3 related features on our roadmap.

Read here for more info on how to connect your MetaMask wallet to your Aluna Social account. (https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/09/16/connecting-metamask-to-your-aluna-social-account/)

https://blog.aluna.social/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/metamask-connect-aluna-1024x512.png

---

Users looking to swap their EQT by ALN ERC-20 Tokens will need to have their Web3 wallets connected on the website, the SWAP page will be available once the swap is ready to happen. In the meantime, we can only give access to the Web3 page which will not only enable you to do the SWAP but also will enable you to use other Web3 features we are working on.

Once the ALN Token is in place, there will be an AIRDROP happening. We are also currently working on a leaderboard. Once the leaderboard is in place, Users performing well on the leaderboard will also receive awards in ALN Tokens on their Web3 wallets.

We're continuing to develop and test critical features of the platform, such as leaderboard, copy trading which is currently being tested on staging and the ALN token which is already on testnet.

We're also fixing issues such as an error with the trading history performance stats, so that our new leaderboard page can show accurate data. Since 50% of our users currently open the website via mobile we are also focusing on improving the mobile experience and should have a new mobile version online soon.

Well, the platform l@@ks nice and seems to function well. Will probably take some time for me to get the hang of it. As to the swap ... How do I and others get our eqt off of Yobit? Their wallet has been down forever.  :-[

peace,
Rick

web3 connection via metamask is quite simple and easy, congrats on that.
good to see some development happening.

Wow, i just read your whitepaper and loved the idea of counter-trade copy trading :D. Also the minimalistic look is top notch.

How different will this platform be from other trading platform? and what new thing will this platform introduce which will be unique compared to other trading platform? 

This platform is quite unique in my opinion, with the history of purchasing user positions and users can make their feelings,
there making ALUNA a social media based trading platform.

To those taking part in the EQT swap:

Friendly reminder that Coinexchange will stop withdrawals in 2 days.
If you still haven't moved your EQT to a local wallet, please do so ASAP.

If you're running into issues, please PM me on Telegram (http://t.me/onemanatatime).



Hey Youghoor,

As kapalmabur pointed out, we combine an API trading terminal with a social network, which enables unique features such as copy-trading and leaderboards, and the ability to view other trader's portfolio distribution and their real-time trades and performance history.



Thank you for the kind words!

Now I can finally counter-copy myself and become a profitable trader! :D

An announcement will be made soon, so please keep a look out for it on this thread, on Telegram, as well as on Aluna's social channels.

If you're not already in the swap group on Telegram, please send me a PM on Telegram at t.me/onemanatatime (http://t.me/onemanatatime).

great news and amazing that you'll post updates on that as well.
already on the telegram group and looking forward for it.

cheers

Exchange are good and there technologies not bad,need more information about this platform, The most important thing in any project is his team, and team is absolutely friendly. Look out They’re announced it’s good news,

This project is really great and interesting. I really like this project. i read whitepaper and know that it is not just a great idea-based project, it's a project that unites new technology and concerns about the future of humanity.

The EQT to ALN swap will start on 13th Jan 2020, and end on 10th Feb 2020.

For more details, please read this blog post: https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/ (https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/)

Swap is LIVE!

The swap will be open until 10th February 2020. Send your EQT before the deadline to qualify for the swap.

Tutorial on how to take part: https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/

Great news!
thanks a lot for the detailed blog post.
the process seems quite easy and I'm sure most of the people will have no problems.

Yeah, it was easy step, just send EQT and wait within 7 days from the swap deadline (https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/). I just really hope for the swap works, so EQT will become ALN that have great price and have more good future than EQT.

I already do that, but honestly sometimes waiting makes me feel uncomfortable, but how else, it's has been set like that. However, this ALN makes me curious, how will he be in the market later.

We encourage everyone to take part in the swap as soon as you can, and not wait until the last day to send your coins, lest you run into issues with syncing the wallet or there's problems with the site.

So the budget is 10 million token and will be distributed equally according to the EQT obtained and based on how much was sent by each participant. Things like this really should not be missed, if some people did not know this then participant will pocketing so much ALN when the swap is complete.

Indeed, ALL 10 million ALN tokens will be distributed no matter how many EQT take part in the swap.

E.g.
If a total of 1,000,000 EQT is sent for the swap, you will receive 10 ALN for every 1 EQT sent.
If a total of 10,000,000 EQT is sent for the swap, you will receive 1 ALN for every 1 EQT sent.



Due to the nature of the swap rules, the amount of ALN you will receive per EQT keeps changing based on how many EQT in total take part.

Therefore we can't send you your ALN as soon as we receive your EQT, but have to wait until the end of the swap period to know the right amount that you will receive.

Thank you for your understanding.



The ALN token will be constantly maintained and improved, to add utility to the ecosystem, unique integrations with the platform, and provide holders with multiple benefits.

We will be releasing and open-sourcing the code for the token very soon so do keep a look out for that.



You're welcome Lucas!

We tried to make the experience as simple as possible. But if anyone still runs into issues, please reach out to me via PM, or to any admin on our Telegram group (https://t.me/aluna_social).

Friendly reminder that the swap ends in 23 days.

Highly recommend you set up your account as soon as possible and take the necessary steps for participating.

This includes creating your MetaMask wallet (and securing your seed phrase and login details), connecting it to your Aluna account, and generating an EQT address and sending your EQT.

If you run into any issues do let me know here or via PM (preferably via Telegram).

Syncing your EQT wallet may take a day. You may run into issues with the Aluna website, or with the EQT wallet. So don't wait until the last minute to do this as there'll only be one swap event!!

Instructions: https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/ (https://blog.aluna.social/aluna-platform-tutorial/2019/12/31/how-to-take-part-in-the-eqt-to-aln-token-swap/)
