[ANN][NIM] - Nimiq - The Browser Based Blockchain

[Wekkel]

At least this KYC thing is bringing attention to this project. The market is surely doing ok right now.

NIMIQ is a joke.   If they wanted to do KYC they should of done it during the time of the sale, not after it is already selling on an exchange.  Makes no sense.

Do you consider the possibility that they did not have the right information at the ICO time, or that the risk profile of the KYC decision has changed given recent regulatory changes? Your assumptions are strong but unfounded.

the Hacker One's Program usually runs for a month right?
So Nimiq Mainnet end of Quarter 1 or  start of Quarter 2
only  if hackerone's program does not find huge vulnerabilities

VLOG Update: Nimiq Bug Bounty, Public Invitation

It's been months since I've been watching Nimiq! Does anyone know what will happen to the NET tokens as soon as the mainnet is released? Is the conversion possible, apparently a simple question, but in fact, will this swap be fast? Switching NET tokens for NET coins does not appear to be simple.

Does Running nimiq browser on raspberry pi 3 worth?
like few raspberry pi., around 10-12 pi

Yes we actually have a very simple tool to help you with the process for NIM activation using your NET tokens. Stay tuned for the announcement

If you are looking to mine i think is better to have several core i7 CPUs than several PIs because the PIs CPU has a slow memory compared to a cheap core i7. Memory latency is one of the main variables for our PoW algo. You can check nimiq.community/benchmark for some community benchmarks

I apologize if this is addressed already but I find this whole thing very interesting. It seems to me that requiring KYC after the crowdsale is too late.

How do you know if investors bought the crowdsale or bought on an exchange? Are you just planning to Disallow US citizens to convert regardless, just to be safe.

I'm not that worried about it, I just find this interesting as it is another example of how complicated regulating crypto-currencies is going to be.

Will the main net go live in q1?
Many have been waiting for months since the ico 
Hopefully it can be listed on the larger exchanges like binance and finex.

The conversion will only be possible after kyc?

Just tried the net to nim activation tool from the nimiq website and the kyc thereafter.

Works like a charm.

Good job Nimiq!

It looks like this is well done work!

Is there a list of all restrictions there are for the conversion (age, country...). I saw "all US citizens", etc., but I was wondering if there was a complete list.

[shixd8899]

The user can easily operate without any installation in the browser in mining, is really good, the price is still profitable.

[mrhans]

As I don't like to do a full KYC for just a simple coins swap I will have to sell my NIMIQ. I still like the project though so maybe I will wait till the main net launches, sell the old tokens and get main chain ones

[polylogic]

i still dont understand why you only collect the data from people that try to swap and not people that are using the network.
as i have stated before if you want to become a payment processor you will have to comply with the real regulations, not some made up ones,
could you imagen visa without verification? your bank account? why do you target ico users?

but wait, i just noticed.. you send our data to some US KYC firm that works with coinbase and bittrex while not allowing US people to participate?
you basicly sell our data to the us authorities and call it the responsible way to do even if we have absolutly nothing to do with the usa.
the us data protection and privacy laws are like none existent. did you ever read about snowden (there is a movie now)

every true regulated company that works with money does need the complete kyc from all users (most companys offer a small limit for unverfied users)
why does nimiq not ?
