hubbida, you clearly did not read the ANN thread in its entirety. It clearly states that everything is going to be open sourced and is rolling out on github. No downloadable file or binary is going to be published before then.

The Monero and MoneroV private keys, and by extension the XMR & XMV coins of holders, are completely safe as long as the official MoneroV wallet is being used to claim the MoneroV coins. The wallet source code like everything else will obviously be published and open sourced before it is released in its downloadable form.

Users do not and should not reveal their private keys to a third party at any stage. It is the same method Bitcoin holders used to claim their Bitcoin Cash coins. The official MoneroV wallet, along with all dependencies will be completely open sourced and available for everyone to validate and compile from source.

In addition, your supply of coins argument does not make sense because you did not factor in the percentages and the proportional distribution. In the beginning, every holder receives 10 times the amount in XMV. Because this is an even distribution, the purchasing value stays the same and there is no inflation. Afterwards, the inflation of both coins is exactly the same percentage wise until XMV hits 256 Million (XMR would be at this point 25.6 Million). After that point, MoneroV will stop inflating as it hit the max supply while Monero will keep inflating indefinitely.

 

There are many pending languages that would need to be added. A detailed list will be released.

The best way would be to hold your XMR locally. Of course you can get involved, reach out to us by email.

You'll be able to mine MoneroV only after the hard-fork split date.

Yes, we do plan to implement Kovri. The whitepaper should point to the CryptoNote whitepaper as it's the current underlining protocol of both Monero and MoneroV.

Features:

• Capped: MoneroV adheres to core Austrian school of economics principles by capping the total MoneroV coins that can be created, parting with Monero’s infinite coin supply structure.
• Secure:  Decentralized peer-to-peer blockchain transaction consensus enables MoneroV to be secure and reliable.
• Private:  MoneroV is truly anonymous and private. Sending and receiving addresses are obfuscated, as well as all amounts being transferred in all transactions. Your identity cannot be linked or traced to a transaction on the MoneroV blockchain.

How can I get MoneroV?

Anyone who holds Monero prior to the fork which will occur on block height 1564965 (~30th April 2018) will be an owner of MoneroV and will receive MoneroV coins (XMV) in the rate of 1 XMR = 10 XMV. As an example, if you hold 1 Monero coin (XMR) prior to the fork, you will own 10 MoneroV (XMV) after the fork.

If a third party stores your Monero coins, like an exchange or a custodian wallet service, you will need to inquire with them about your MoneroV coins.


How MoneroV is different from Monero?

• MoneroV has a limited supply of coins in contrast to Monero’s infinite coin supply.
• MoneroV and Monero's proof of work algorithms are on a different development path, as MoneroV's will focus on mitigating the mass use of botnets and unsuspected browser-based miners.
• MoneroV will have an active development fund that would be used for rapid development and feature integration versus Monero's voluntary donation based development process.
• In addition, MoneroV will implement new protocols that will solve the scaling problems facing Monero and other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. In-depth detail is included in the MoneroV roadmap: https://monerov.org/MoneroV-Roadmap.pdf.
  

How should I keep my XMR to make sure I will receive XMV?

Any wallet that is secure and allows you exclusive access to your seed private key would be a suitable wallet to use to receive MoneroV.

We will publish guides and technical tutorials for safe retrieval of your XMV from popular wallets such as the Monero GUI wallet (getmonero.org), Mymonero.com and the Monero RPC. Some wallets may offer native access to your XMV.


When will the MoneroV wallet be released?

The official MoneroV wallet, in addition to other dependencies such as the MoneroV daemon will be released a few days after the blockchain snapshot date, as compilation and setup can only occur after the 1564965 blockchain height point.


How can I join the development team?

Anyone can join the MoneroV open source project. We are looking for talented C++ & Node.js developers as well as front-end developers and DevOps engineers.

Comparison:

• Total Supply - Capped at 256 Million XMV (Of which about ~5.85% in a coinbase transaction for active development).
• Circulating Supply at Hard Fork Split - ~158 Million XMV (10x circulating XMR supply).
• Proof of Work - CryptoNight (to be modified)
• Difficulty Retarget - Every block. Adjusted difficulty initially after the split.
• Block Time - Every 2 minutes.
• Block Reward - Smooth decrease. Minimum of 6 XMV per block at 184,467,440 XMV in total emission until 256M max supply reach.
• Block Size - Dynamic.
• Privacy - Ring signature / stealth addresses.
