Tachyon (TYX) is a newly-released token for tipping and micro-transactions commemorating the hypothetical particle said to be faster than the speed of light. With its memorable name, Tachyon (TYX) is intended to be Ethereum’s complement light-fast currency.
The founders of Ethereum always said that ETH was meant to be the crypto-fuel of the Ethereum network, not its currency. TYX was created to fulfill this role and be Ethereum's own completely on-chain currency. Consider it an accessible, on-the-go token created for instant transfers, mobile payments, embedded tipping on forums, and anonymous online purchases. With the Ethereum network rapidly growing, Tachyon hopes to be the light-fuel for the future’s informal digital economy.
It has just announced that TYX has begun early trading on three decentralized exchanges with plans to be added to a handful of other exchanges this month.

Today, we know that the ICO model has in many cases been a disaster. Many of these coins are now under ICO price and, in some cases, were just cash grabs with no actual development.
That being said, can a coin be successful if it does not hold an ICO, but only distributes coins with bounties, airdrops, and campaigns? Some say that having an airdropped or bounty-based distribution of tokens would cause the price to crash too low. However, can't airdrops and bounties also create a strong community if there are expectations?
Is there even a good way to distribute coins that's not an ICO or mining them? What are some examples of coins that had no ICO / weren't mined, but were distributed in some other way that are currently still successfully trading with volume?
Any thoughts?

TACHYON Tachyon (TYX), a token made to complement Ethereum, is officially live and verified on Etherscan! Website, roadmap, and whitepaper just released!
So, I know what you're thinking: oh boy, another token. Big deal.
However, don't disregard Tachyon just yet. We're two developers who decided to create an accessible currency on the Ethereum network to optimize and accessorize micro-payments. So give us a chance, we put a lot of time into it. And if you actually read this entire announcement, we have some goodies for you near the end of this post (hint: it's an easy airdrop sign-up) 
For elaboration on all of these points please visit https://tachyontoken.com and read Tachyon’s whitepaper. What is Tachyon?Tachyon (TYX) is a new token and currency built on the Ethereum blockchain to streamline peer-to-peer micro-transactions with a focus on ease-of-access, fungibility, and everyday usefulness. Consider it an on-the-go token created for instant transfers, mobile payments, embedded tipping on forums, and online purchases. With the Ethereum network rapidly growing, Tachyon hopes to be the light-fuel for the future’s informal digital economy. What's a “Tachyon,” Anyway? Depending on who you task, tachyons might be a theoretical impossibility or an exciting prospect. Based off the Greek word ‘tachys’ meaning ‘swift,’ tachyons are hypothesized particles faster than the speed-of-light. This may seem impossible according to our current understanding of the natural world. To travel at speeds equal to light, one needs a mass of zero. This means that to travel faster-than-light, the particle would need to have a negative mass.
Is such a concept possible to conceive? For now, tachyonic particles serve more as a placeholder for imaginary concepts within astrophysics, similar to how the variable i denotes an imaginary number in mathematics (as is the case when, for example, one tries to factor the square root of a negative number). However, string theory calculations of particle vibrations has found that the squared mass derived from these vibrations can sometimes yield an imaginary number. We are likely limited now by our available tools of detection.
Regardless of their validity, tachyons have captured the imagination of science-fiction writers and popular culture ever since it was popularized in James Blish’s Star Trek novel Spock Must Die! in 1970. It’s since been seen in Babylon 5, The Watchmen, and many other pop culture references. Science-fiction has often referenced tachyons to send messages, payments, and digital media in an instant – and TYX will be its crypto-embodiment!What Sets Tachyon Apart? Tachyon (TYX) is an ERC-20 token built for the Ethereum network created to facilitate tipping and micro-transactions. However, what sets Tachyon apart from other projects is that it is exclusively a digital currency with an improved strategy of adoption.
One of the core aspects of Tachyon is accessibility. The goal is to create a Tachyon network to compliment Ethereum: a network of widgets, plug-ins, and payment solutions that is easily integrated into existing forums, chatrooms, marketplaces, and other infrastructural elements of transactions online.
All of this of the parameters and features of Tachyon are published in the “Features of Tachyon” section of our whitepaper. So please read it if interested as I will spare you a massive block of text here.
The Tachyon Economy and Airdrop Model- Circulating supply will be 299,792,459 which is one more than 299,792,458 m/s, the speed of light in a vacuum.
- No inflation or coin burn.
- All coins are minted immediately at creation.
- Divisible by 18 places.
One of the major decisions during the Tachyon project’s initial draft was to have a host of airdrops instead of an initial coin offering (ICO). A large number of the ICOs held on ETH in the past year have been found to be scams or money-grabs — and, to make matters worse, most ICOs have failed to materialize on their promises. Thus, we are averting the pitfalls of the ICO model by instead distributing TYX via an airdrop campaign straight to your ETH wallet for free.
By not holding an ICO, the valuation of TYX will be determined by the forces of supply and demand on exchanges — therefore, the airdrop allows us to distribute value to as many wallets as possible, thereby preventing TYX from being concentrated in a few trading hands.
The airdrop strategy is simple: Each airdrop, 5% of the total supply (299,792,459 TYX) will be airdropped to those who signed-up. This 5% will be divided by the number of people who signed up and every person will receive the same amount of TYX, although this is subject to change for the next airdrop. In total, there will be eight airdrops, each distributing 5% of the circulating supply each time. The sign-up for the first airdrop is currently live and will close on August 15th 2018.
Like what you've read so far? Please sign up for our first airdrop here! You will need to join our Telegram and follow us on Twitter to confirm your airdrop.
So that’s all there is to it. Please sign up for our airdrop if interested and follow our social media accounts to confirm and for the latest updates. Enjoy the rest of your day, ya’ll.

A tachyon is a particle hypothesized to be faster than the speed of light. It’s also now a cryptocurrency made for Ethereum. Tachyon, with its futuristic fitting name, hopes to leave its mark on the Ethereum community with the release of its new TYX token. Its website, roadmap, and whitepaper were just released recently at https://tachyontoken.com.
With its fitting name, the goal of Tachyon is to be Ethereum’s complement for tipping and micro-transactions as its network continues to expand. And they may be on to something: With Ethereum’s positioning in the global market, via their Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, they are well-poised to dominate many sectors of the global economy in the future, from supply-side logistics to decentralized applications to corporate record-keeping. However, according to Ethereum's own description of itself, it is the 'crypto-fuel' for the network and not a currency. What then will be the used to transact small amounts of everyday value on Ethereum?
This is where Tachyon comes in: an on-the-go token created for instant transfers, mobile payments, embedded tipping on forums, and online purchases. It will be the cheapest token to send on the Ethereum blockchain, meant to facilitate the many small payment channels that will develop as Ethereum's network grows. Tachyon is made to make Ethereum work better. Tachyon thus hopes to be Ethereum's little brother, a complement to the network just for payments.
TYX is unique in so far as it does not rely on an ICO model that failed us all so miserably last year. A large number of the ICOs held on ETH in the past year have been found to be scams or money-grabs — and, to make matters worse, most ICOs have failed to materialize on their promises. Thus, Tachyon argues that they are averting the pitfalls of the ICO model by instead distributing TYX via an airdrop campaign where 5% of their circulating supply will be airdropped to all those who signed-up. They plan to host 8 airdrops in total, airdropping 40% of their circulating supply to "as many wallets as possible."
If you're interested in being part of Tachyon and receive some TYX, please sign up here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScOc31DoQFMDVbGIjFpPO981YMeN6XqeLbEGTktCqRnh8FM9A/viewform?usp=sf_link
With an early, free, and fair distribution at the beginning of its creation, TYX’s goal is to be the easiest-to-use and the most fungible token on the Ethereum blockchain.

TACHYON Logo: Tachyon (TYX) is a new token and currency built on the Ethereum blockchain to streamline peer-to-peer micro-transactions with a focus on ease-of-access, fungibility, and everyday usefulness. Aiming to be an accessible ERC-20 token for tipping and micro-transactions, Tachyon is a cryptocurrency designed to complement Ethereum. With the Ethereum network rapidly growing, Tachyon hopes to be the light-fuel for the future’s informal digital economy.Reasons for the ProjectWith Ethereum moving from a proof-of-work to a proof-of-stake system, its ecosystem will inevitably expand and improve over time. Yet, with its expansion, there will likely be a need for a go-to token for micro- transactions. This is because, as the price of Ether continues to increase, a smaller and smaller fraction will be needed for the average person. The Ethereum.org website itself states in its description that:
Ether is to be treated as ‘crypto-fuel’, a token whose purpose is to pay for computation, and is not intended to be used as or considered a currency, asset, share or anything else. This will pose a significant problem since Ethereum has different use-cases when used in smart contracts, payments, and decentralized applications. Ethereum's primary function is not as a currency, but instead as gas for the network. With the Ethereum network only getting larger, its usefulness as a 'currency' will further diminish. Many tokens will thus emerge in time to fulfill this currency function, as a way to accessorize payments done over the Ethereum network.
We envision Tachyon (TYX), with its fitting name, as Ethereum’s complement for tipping and small transfers between friends. Tachyon is a project focused on accessibility—and this includes the novelty aspect of the coin. Meant to be embedded into existing forums, chats, websites, and so on, Tachyon is a memorable token meant to accessorize payments in this digital economy.[/size] Why the Name "Tachyon?"Depending on who you task, tachyons might be a theoretical impossibility or an exciting prospect.

Tachyon (TYX)Tachyon (TYX) is an ERC-20 token built on Ethereum.
✓ Circulating supply will be 299,792,459 which is one more than 299,792,458 m/s, the speed of light in a vacuum.
✓ No inflation or coin burn. All coins are minted immediately at creation.
✓ Divisible by 18 places
✓ Fixed Batch Overflow Bug which broke some ERC-20 tokens
TYX’s function is best served token for tipping and micro-transactions. It thus aims to be integrated functionally for tips on forums, chats, and elsewhere for small transfers along. Tachyon will also be releasing a community board where users can post small online tasks and pay with TYX upon completion. With the Casper update coming out in Q4 for Ethereum, sending TYX will be cheaper as well as faster. Distribution of TYXThe first TYX airdrop was distributed as a bonus to those who expressed early interest. There will be succeeding campaigns, bounties, events, and faucets to distribute 65% of the total circulating supply of 299,792,459 TYX. We are going with this airdrop strategy to ensure the Tachyon token is in as many wallets as possible, a step closer to our goal of complete accessibility. Currently Trading On EtherDelta
