At the moment we are only listed on Birake at https://trade.birake.com/market/BIRAKE.MANO_BIRAKE.BTC . There is no option to buy with USDT. We want to list on Blocknet but to do that until our blockchain has a change made to it (BIP65 functionality). Our blockchain dev is helping us out with that, but he's working on some other projects also so don't have a definite timeframe as to when that will happen. Yes, we've been working in the background and had a few false starts, but every false start is a learning opportunity and it's slowly coming together.

We still have a lot of work to do so as a suggestion perhaps it would be wise to wait for a couple of weeks to decide whether it's something you'd like to invest in once you see new content start to come out? Then at least you can make a more informed decision. 

Is it possible to sell a Cointracking unlimited account? I have an account that I no longer need and would like to sell it to someone who may get some use out of it.
Thanks.

Hi,

I no longer have a need for my unlimited account. Is there any place I can sell this on to someone that may get more use out of it (obviously wouldn't expect to sell at retail price).

Thanks!

Hi Shivoreun,

Try these instructions and let me know if you still encounter issues: http://docs.manocoin.net/FAQs/#my-wallet-isnt-syncing-how-do-i-add-nodes

What OS are you using? Some people had issues with the Mac wallet, but I believe this was resolved. Can you PM me here or on discord so I can help further?

Hi Sieemma,

Thanks a lot for the kind words and support.

Hi Barkingcoin,

Could you send me a PM on here when you have a chance and we can get you up and running 😀.

Hi Barkingcoin,

I'll be able to help you out, jump on the discord that is on the first page of this announcement and PM me. Sorry but where did you find a discord link that has expired? I thought I'd updated them all now, obviously missed one!

Also, If your wallet is showing in white instead of a dark colour you will need to change the theme.

To do this select settings - options - display
set user interface theme to "default"

Which would be a reasonable reason why you couldn't move or swap the coins prior to the deadline, and would mean we could give you 1:1. That is,except for any running nodes post deadline - those additional rewards would need to swapped at a lower rate to make it fair for all. Did you receive less? I can only see three people as of now who haven't received a 1:1 swap, and can't see your name on there? You can reach out to me on discord or telegram if you are having issues with the coins showing as pending, I haven't seen that issue before.

Obviously can't guarantee anything, but we are going to do our absolute best we can to deliver something great. Thanks for your ongoing support.

We advised sometime ago that there would be a swap coming, and then told everyone that we would be swapping via Cryptobridge, and they should send their coins there prior to this announcement. And, we've been VERY lenient with the swap, the vast majority of people have got 1:1 post the deadline we gave, unless it's clear they have been trying to game the system.

To be honest I think it's been more then fair.

Hi Everyone,

Please see below for additional information regarding the swap process.

Your coins need to be sent (and confirmed) to Cryptobridge (or the manual method) wallet before March 11 1000hrs UTC to be eligible for a 1:1 (1 old MANO for 1 new MANO).

We would like to have all users move off the oMANO chain as quickly as possible and start using the nMANO chain.

Ways to Swap.
The easiest and preferred way to swap coins is via our exchange Cryptobridge (CB). You simply send your oMANO coins to CB before March 11 and then the exchange converts your old MANO (oMANO) to new MANO (nMANO) on March 11 1000hrs. We will be releasing the nMANO wallet on March 12, and then you can withdraw your nMANO into your nMANO wallet.

Any coins sent to CB after March 11 1000hrs will not be eligible for swap on CB. These users will need to request a manual swap at a lower swap rate.

If you cannot use CB to swap your coins we are also offering a manual swap. For this you need to send your coins to the “Mano Collection wallet” also before March 11 1000hrs, to be eligible for a 1:1 swap. If you send after this time the following swap rates apply:

•    Before March 11 10000 hrs UTC - 1: 1
•    Between March 11 1000hrs and March 18 1000hrs UTC - 2:1
•    Between March 18 1000hrs and March 25 1000hrs UTC - 5:1
•    Between March 25 1000hrs and March 31 2359hrs UTC - 10:1
•    After March 31st 2359hrs - swap no longer possible

As the oMANO blockchain does not have regular blocks, we urge you to send your coins to CB, or complete the manual submission request as soon as possible.

Details on CB-Swap process
1.   Do a backup of your current oMANO wallet and save the file somewhere safe.
2.   Stop all MNs and combine all coins into 1 input
3.   Send all coins to CB as soon as possible
4.   After 100 confirmations the funds are confirmed on CB and your transaction is valid
5.   You can delete the oMANO wallet, including the roaming files (make sure your backup file is stored elsewhere)
6.   On March 14, we will share the link to the nMANO wallet. Download and install
7.   CB opens withdrawals of nMANO and you can send your nMANO to your nMANO wallet address

Details on the Manual-Swap process
Please note this is not the preferred method and should only be used by people that cannot use CB. We will be processing these requests manually and on a first in-first out process. The earliest you will get your nMANO coins swapped using this procedure is March 15 or 16, depending on Mano-team workload.
1.   DM @elmsy (user ID 374896981417656320) or @towaberg (user ID 413330312899330050) in Discord stating you would like to do a manual-swap ASAP. We will never send a PM first. Alternatively, you can email swap@manocoin.net
2.   We will share with you details the work process and how you can send your oMANO coins before March 11th.

Timeline
March 1st:                        CB locked withdrawals of oMANO.
Now until March 11:          All users send their oMANO to CB to be swapped
March 11 1000hrs UTC:      All MANO on CB will be exchanged to nMANO coins on the new blockchain. Deposits/withdrawal of new MANO is enabled again.
March 12:               New MANO wallets are released, you can withdraw your nMANO from CB to personal wallets.
Manual swappers share with team their nMANO address and get their nMANO once their submission is processed (up to 2 weeks).

FAQ: The current o-MANO blockchain sometimes takes hours for a block - Will my coins get to CB in time? We are aware of this issue and thus urge all users to send all their MANO to CB as soon as possible.

FAQ: What happens to the old blockchain? We will continue to support the old MANO wallets for the purposes of the swap until March 31st. All support for the old blockchain and all its components will cease after March 31st.  

Although we will push this too all communication platforms, please also inform your friends who hold MANO to send their coins to CB with they want their coins swapped.

With the release of the n-MANO wallets and a move away from the old blockchain, we begin a new chapter.

Mano Team

Hi Everyone,

A more detailed announcement will be provided as soon as a few final details have been confirmed, but we have engaged Cryptobridge to help with the upcoming swap. In preparation, please send your Mano there as soon as possible, to help ensure a smooth change over.

Hi Everyone ,

Please see below for some updates on items we have been working on, and next steps for MANO.

Blockchain
The new Proof-of-Stake blockchain was created two weeks ago. We have been conducting testing to understand the operation and performance since then. We are very happy with the results we have achieved and are just making a few minor changes to the QT theme now. Support infrastructure (such as seed-masternodes, seed-stakers, DNS-Seeder and Blockchain explorer) have all been completed as well.

For absolute transparency, we wish to make clear that these initial nodes do NOT belong to the individuals of the development team. Once the new chain has launched and there are a sufficient number of community nodes, these nodes will be shutdown and all collateral (and rewards) will be returned to the development fund. The community will be able to vote what happens to this fund in the near future.

Air Drop
The opportunity for old MANO holders to receive the new MANO coin will occur during "MANO Mad March". From the 1st of March to the 31st, current holders will be able to send in their old MANO as part of a coin swap. The swap period will last for one month, and all legitimate swap requests made during this month will be honoured.

Swaps initiated during the first two weeks of March will be honoured on a 1:1 basis. This conversion rate will drop in the third week to 1:0.8 and the final week and a half will reduce further to 1:0.5. After the 31st of March, we will not air drop coins to holders of the old MANO coin. This is to encourage the community to move over to the new blockchain. Information on how to swap will be released on March 1st.

Community Loyalty Launch Offer
We understand that it has been a long wait for many of the original MANO holders. As a thank you, we are offering a special launch offer for the community.
For 0.01 BTC you will receive hosting for 4 MN's until June 30. This  offer can only be purchased until March 31st. If you are interested, please reach out to a core team member on Discord and we will direct you to the launch sale channel. Of course you can also run one (or many) MNs on the platform outside of this offer. Here the standard fees apply, to be paid in MANO (calculated at daily rate).

Other items
The new lightpaper will be available soon. The website has been moved to https://www.manocoin.net/, and updated to show the correct information. The Bitcointalk ANN has been modified with these details, and we have requested for links to Mano on other websites (such as Masternodes Online, Live Coin Watch and Coingecko) to be updated. We will soon be introducing a Contributor role in the discord, in which those who are contributing, or have contributed to projects have a place to discuss ideas.

As always, have a great week and thank you for the support.

Hi Everyone,

It's been a busy couple of weeks and I realise this update is overdue. Here's a quick rundown on what we've achieved during this time, and where our current focus is.

New Blockchain

The new blockchain is ready to go and wallet has been coded. We plan to announce the date and procedure on how to swap within the next 1-2 weeks. In addition to the free 1:1 swap of the new coin to current Mano holders, we plan to release the platform at the start of the swap period.

Coin Economics

We have examined the coin economics and will use the blockchain change as an opportunity to modify these to suit the staking / PoS model, and our priorities of being a community governed coin. First, masternode collateral will be increasing to 2500 Mano. This number was decided on as we believe it allows decentralisation whilst making the owning of a node more prestigious. In addition,  at 2500 collateral there are enough Mano holders able to run a node for us to obtain the views of a large cross section of the community. This is important so that governance decisions take into account community sentiment, and are not limited to the views of one or two "whales". As current circulating supply is just over two million coins, a collateral of 2500 would provide less than 800 nodes, as not all coins will be locked in MNs (exchanges, staking, cold wallets, premine).

In addition to the collateral changes, the reward structure will be changing to offer more benefit to masternode holders, plus introduce an incentive for people to stake their coins. Previously 50% of rewards went to miners, which caused patchy blocktimes as autopools joined and left the network. The switch to PoS means we are able to offer a higher reward for masternode holders. The split of rewards when we move to PoS will be 70% to MN holders, 20% to stakers and 10% as a dev fee. Once the swap has completed, we will move forward the halving that is due to occur in early June. The development reward will allow community members to propose new pieces of work that will benefit the project, which can be voted on by Mano masternode community, and funding released as appropriate.

Other items

In the last announcement I touched on a possible rebrand. After discussion with the community, we feel that it isn't the time for this. It's a nonessential item, would require us to update a lot of collateral and would take our focus away from where it needs to be.

Next steps

We now have time to refresh or redo some of the important visible elements of Mano, such as the website and whitepaper. Thanks to those who have offered help, it's very much appreciated.

I hope you have a great weekend, and are looking forward to an exciting few weeks coming up.

Hi tokenZ,

I have updated on the Bitcointalk announcement now. The new invite is https://discord.gg/WquZdW . Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Myself and a few other team members have taken over the reigns of Mano a couple of weeks ago, and we have been working through things to get us back up and running again ASAP.

Hope to see you in the discord!

Hi All,

It's that time again!

Could you please update your wallets at your earliest convenience with version 1.1.1 located at https://github.com/MasternodeFoundation/MANOcoin/releases/tag/1.1.1. We have updated a number of backend items that have been identified since the last release. Remember to take a backup of your wallet file and store this in a safe location (if you haven't done so already) prior to updating.

It's a bit early to say it's been rebooted and we will be successful, but we are trying our best and are cautiously optimistic. Still a lot of hurdles to get through, but we are in a better situation then this time last week.

Hi All,

I wanted to take this opportunity to provide a short update on how things are progressing. Firstly, Ben Alexander from www.cryptocoin.com.au has been talking with the team and is helping in an advisory role.

Ben has a wealth of professional experience including:

- Linux System Administration for over a decade.
- Worked with some of the biggest (top 5) tech unicorns in the US and AU.
- Currently contracts to Government, Financial and Mining sectors in a Technical Project Management role. He specialises in bringing agile tools and methodologies to these behemoths.

An automated crypto masternode project perfectly aligns with his professional career as well as his love of blockchain. I'm excited about the value he can bring to Mano, combining prior experience and knowledge with the community and team to build something big.

In parallel, we are also speaking with a developer to implement a new hosting solution. Finally, we are looking into the legalities of accepting payment if we bring a hosting platform online. Obviously, there is still a lot of work to do and potential issues that could arise, but we look to be moving in the right direction.
