Hello everybody,
Last night we sent an email to UseCryptos.com and we are still waiting for a reply from them on their progress with the integration.
We will make an update soon as we get a reply.
Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey throwingbones1 and Taxidermista, We sent them the API and today we got conformation that they started the process of integrating MangoCoinz into their system. Now the UseCryptos.com devs need to do their magic ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) We will tell everybody when MangoCoinz is available on UseCryptos.com and about the voting. Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Great question Radio-Active and b-trading, There is no need for a PC wallet, because mobile phones are computers. Basically the MangoCoinz app is at the same time a miner and a wallet. So the way you will send the coinz to your exchange account is simply by sending the coinz to a unique address that that exchange has made for your account. So you will only need to send the coinz to i.e. "mangocoinzexchange_youruexchangesername" username and you will have your coinz in your account ready to trade. And that's it! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Hope this helped, and if you have more questions feel free to ask. Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey fran2k, Have you synced your coinz before updating? There was a warning for possible coin loss due to changing (improving) of the way coinz are stored on the phone. (this was for updating from v0.4.2b (and lower) to v0.4.3 (and up)) But if you did sync your coinz before updating you can just sync again and you will have your coinz back. Well, in theory MangoCoinz it works like a P2P, but it isn't an open P2P network. Because it's not open to other nodes except ours we can say that it's centralized. Oh, and there is a blockchain, but the explorer is still in development, but you can check out the demo here: http://mangocoinz.com/blockchain_viewer.phpHope this answered you question, and if you are still having trouble with your coinz, please send us an email to mangocoinz@gmail.com and we will see how we can help. Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz. P.S. And there will be an official MangoCoinz introduction thread soon.

Hey everyone,
Quick update: We've been working on improving MangoCoinz so that we can have the API available for the exchanges. We want to maintain speed in the system. The exchanges are coming soon, and we are working on it. We just need you patience a bit longer.
The website is delayed off a bit due to a hard disk mechanical failure on our team members computer. But it will be soon.
Oh, and kahir you asked will there be and Windows phone version, and Taxidermista answered it correctly. For now there is no Windows phone version of MangoCoinz, but that doesn't mean that there won't be one in the future.
Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey zyronx, Could you please try again and see if the app crashes again when signing up? O.K, could you please send us her MangoCoinz username so that we can activate her account? Oh, and if you are still having trouble signing up with your phone please tell us via email and we will fix it. Please send us an email to: mangocoinz@gmail.comThe app is still in beta, so there are some kinks to iron out. But we are working on fixing everything ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey b-trading and gravitate, It’s a great question. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Short answer: MangoCoinz (at least for now) doesn’t use P2P technology. Well, it’s running like a P2P in theory, but just on our machines. That’s why it’s centralized. Long answer: The reason why MangoCoinz isn't P2P is because of the nature of the app. Because MangoCoinz is a way of mining crypto currencies on your smartphone there are certain trade-offs. Nothing’s perfect, and in the tech world to achieve something you need to trade some features to achieve what you want. I can give you a “scary" example of that trade-off. Do you know how when you turn your WiFi antenna at home you automatically connect to your network? Well, that’s because you connected to that router before, and you saved it on your phone. And every time you turn your WiFi antenna on, your phone will first look for that router. And here is the “scary” part, let’s say you are in a cafe and your WiFi antenna is on and not connected to any networks. Your phone (which is maybe in your pocket) will be searching (probing) for your home router, but it won’t be able to find it because it’s not in range. But what’s this, a hacked is scanning the air for signals (probes) and intercepts your phone’s probe that is looking for your home router. And with that probe he will have some info on the network you are trying to connect to, and will spoof the info so that your phone will connect to his network, and then snoop on what you are doing or something even worse. Your phone won’t know the difference. The way to avoid this is to keep your WiFi antenna off unless you’re using it. And plus it will save you on battery life. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) The moral of the story was that you trade something (in the case of WiFi security) for convenience (connecting to your home router when you turn the WiFi antenna on when you’re at home). MangoCoinz trades P2P (at least for now) for convenience and ease of use for everybody. At the beginning of MangoCoinz we wanted a P2P network, but then we’ve realized that if you have the blockchain and everything is on the phones then you will eat up you data plan and storage. And we want MangoCoinz to be widely used, so you can’t say to people keep a few GBs on you phone free (most average phones have about 4-8 GB of storage and a bit chunk of that is used by bloatware, not talking about flagships but even they have a limited amount of storage depending on the manufacturer) for the app to function and get your data plan sucked so that you can’t even send an email. And of course there is SPV (Simple Payment Verification) technology developed by BitCoin that allows you to have a header file on your phone and access the network with that (the file is less then a MB). But the problem with that is that people then need to have a client installed on their computer that will keep the blockchain and an app on their phone to mine. So they need to install double the software just so it’s fair to everybody, because SPV is susceptible to the “51%” attack. The attack is basically that as the blockchain is evolving and there is a main branch (graph theory) there could be someone with 51% of computer clients in the system that alters the blockchain for their gain (like adding an enormous amount of coinz to their waller) and then because they are in the majority, all the other nodes in the system will conform and will fork so that now the main branch is the altered blockchain. Because you can’t count on people to install the computer client, overpowering the system would’t be that big of a problem. Technically we could have made MangoCoinz a P2P app, but we then looked at the practical aspect. But the trade-off of MangoCoinz can be recouped with trading MangoCoinz for a decentralized crypto like BitCoin. MangoCoinz was built from the ground up for mining on smartphones (Android for now). We want to make crypto currencies accessible to everone. Hope this answered you question. And if I was wrong somewhere please correct me. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey Taxidermista, The difficulty system isn't new. We've thought about it since the beginning. Because as MangoCoinz gains more miners we need to make a balance so that the coinz don't cape out too fast. With a lot of users mining at the mining difficulty that we have now the 16745027.00 MCZ finite limit would be achieved in a short amount of time. So as time passes there will be a difficulty increase and a proportional limit decrease. The sync limit will be lowered to a tested number so that with normal use it would be enough for a good day of mining. I personally rarely even get to the 10 MCZ/day limit. As I said we will be putting all of this info and more on our website which will hopefully be redesigned by next week. And of course if you have more questions please ask them. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Yes rhkazani1, you're right. There is a sync limit. And it's now at 10 MCZ/day. Please check out this article and interview on MangoCoinz: http://coin-network.com/mangocoinz-interview-mining-crypto-on-your-mobile/It explaines some things. We will be having this and more info on our website when it's redesigned. And most probably it will be done in the next week or so. If you have any questions about things what we have said in the interview, please ask and we will answer. Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey HunterS, Good question. Basically how MangoCoinz works is by translating your movement energy into coinz. But you get a proportional amount of coinz depending on the difficulty that is in the system. The amount you get is proportional to the effort you give. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) For now there are no bonuses for a certain amount of coinz. Hope this answered your question, and feel free to aks again. Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey everybody, Quick update: MangoCoinz will go open source one day when the community is established. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) But for now it isin't. We will see how the community is evolving and growing, and by that we will make a release date for the source code. Best regards, MangoCoinz team.
|
|
|
Hey b-trading,
Open source basically means that the source code of an application is open for everyone to see. Open source programs are also free and usually come with a license that allows you to make your own app with that code and then you can even sell it. Open source is also cool because it allows other people to contribute to the project and to improve it.
MangoCoinz is not open source. Which means that you can't see the code for MangoCoinz.
Hope this shed some light on your question.
Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Sorry, but MangoCoinz is not open source.
We fixed the transaction history current version issue. So now everything is working as it should.
Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey everybody,
We are happy to inform you all that we are currently developing a public API so that MangoCoinz can get on an exchange. We've talked to a couple of exchanges and some of them said "Yes" to MangoCoinz.
The API will be public and will be on our website when it's redone so that anybody can incorporate it in their project or exchange.
Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey kayden4bit, I would disagree with lifting the daily limit, because that gives the option for people to chuck their phones into a washing machine and mine a huge amount of coinz. But I will check with the team for a limit increase. That is simply not fair for someone who is running every day or riding their bike. Or walking a great deal like me. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) What do you mean by giveaways? Who will give the coinz away? I'm asking this, because MangoCoinz are ONLY generated from the data that your phone makes (accelerometer data). Could you please tell me more? Please PM me. We are interested on getting MangoCoinz as soon as possible to an exchange. And we will do what it takes to make that happen. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

Hey gravitate, Yes MangoCoinz does have a blockchain, and for now, until the webiste is redesigned, you can check the demo block chain viewer here: http://www.mangocoinz.com/blockchain_viewer.php(the demo is limited to only the last 300 activities) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz. P.S. Oh, and a rich usernames list is also coming soon, so stay tuned ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Hey rabbiter, Thank you for the introduction thread. We really appreciate it. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) We will be making an official one soon, but this is cool for now. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) What kind of a chat system did you have in mind? I don't know if you have ever played WoW (World of Warcraft), but did you have something like that chat system in mind? It's feasible to make something like that. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz.

We agree Taxidermista, and we are working on getting exposure and on ways of improving the app. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) We haven't got anything back from Crypsy, maybe their development team is still doing the review. We will be submitting the coin to other exchanges that we can find. If you have any suggestion on what exchanges to put MangoCoinz on, please tell us here ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Best regards, Srele from MangoCoinz. P.S. We are going to update the official website soon with more info for better transparency and with new features like a blockchain (transaction list) viewer and a rich username viewer as well. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
