ADAMANT Completes ICO Pre-Sale & Meets Soft-Cap –The Most Secure and Anonymous Messenger – Encrypted Within The Blockchain:
https://bitcoingarden.org/adamant-completes-ico-pre-sale-meets-soft-cap-ico-live-secure-anonymous-messenger-encrypted-within-blockchain/

Fresh off the incredibly successful ICO Pre-Sale, ADAMANT has launched their much anticipated ICO on January 30, 2018. Most ICO’s are launched on a dream and a prayer, but ADAMANT already has existing and operating business models in their Messenger Platform. This is one of the reasons that ADAMANT has attracted so much private as well as institutional investor interest.

The ADAMANT Team exhibited brilliance in their integration of Blockchain Technology and makes their Messenger Platform unlike all other centralized message transfer systems. It is almost impossible to associate a message history to specific persons due to the absence of credentials being used by the system. Users don’t need to enter their cell phone numbers, any email or social accounts, payment details, etc. This is reported to be the future of messaging....

Good post.

What rights does the token provide the investor?

You can read the full amount of use-cases for our token in the whitepaper: https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf

I do not give any chance that it will be held. Especially in the recent period, I learned that Telegram and Line applications have ICO processes, and then I think it will be a totally garbage project.

Did you read the whitepaper for ADAMANT? if not, I invite you to, also, you might want to try the app and look at the comparison table. These guys are ahead of the game already.

Thank you for your post.
Whitepaper is available here: https://adamant.im/whitepapers-library/

It is good to enter market with an ongoing product. But while there is an application such as a telegram, and there is already a well-known and easy-to-use application, what is the chance of the be successful for you?

Thank you for your comment.

Please see the following post:

A lot of users here are asking what the need for the ADAMANT Messenger is when there are so many free messaging applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber, etc.

To give you some perspective, the main purpose of the ADAMANT Messenger is to provide security, anonymity, and privacy. If these traits are not important to you, then they cannot be compared to free applications that do not provide these features. Many instant free messaging softwares provide some form of verification (usually a phone number or email address), but ADAMANT requires none.

When you use a "free" messenger, you're paying in other ways. Your email address, phone number, public connections, location, IP, device information, interests, images, and other sensitive information is transferred to these centralized companies that decide how to use it. Your information can be sold to any government, coorporation, or conglomerate that they choose. We can see this happening around the world with the use cases of "Big Data".

With ADAMANT, you know exactly what price you're paying. There is nothing hidden, it's an open-source project.
You can view a full list of comparisons in the following table: https://image.ibb.co/cPa4gx/ADAMANT_vs_the_rest.png

There are many countries around the world where these features are desperately needed, places that restrict the access of many online applications such as Telegram, WhatsApp, etc. Countries that are run by oppresive regimes and governments that would imprison civilians based on their opposition to ideas of the state. Privacy and freedom is simply a human right, and cannot be denied.

Perhaps some of the users here may be looking at things the wrong way, by comparing ADAMANT to these free messaging applications, thus invalidating the need for any use cases of the ADAMANT Messenger. This is simply not the scenario for every human being in the world. Value from the ADAMANT Messenger will be provided to the individuals that require and use it, regardless of their location around the world.

I like that you can immediately try how the messenger works on blockchain, I like it. The future of the project should be, given that the developers go to different conferences and there is a working product.

Absolutely, thank you for your post.
I found one of the best features of the ADAMANT Messenger to be its ease-of-use from the very beginning.

clear information about coin sales made by this project, I see the existence of pre-ICO to get a coin with a cheap price, and also there is ICO that will be last ahir this month, what is the target price of coins in the end ICO

0.0004 ETH per ADM.

As stated in the ADAMANT Whitepaper (Page 22-23):

The Pre-ICO stage was handled within 12/14/2017 and 01/25/2018.
At the moment the ICO fundraising stage is taking its place with the following terms:
01/30/2018 – 06/30/2018.
● How to participate: through an automatic exchange system at
https://adamant.im/ico/ webpage
● Receiving ADM tokens: through an automatic system transfer to partner’s wallet
right after a payment have been received and confirmed by the processing network
● Accepted cryptocurrencies: ETH, BTC, BCH, DASH, DOGE, LTC, ETC, LSK
● Token price: from 0.0002 ETH to 0.0004 ETH for 1 ADM unit.
Accurate ADM token price for other cryptos is dynamically calculated based on the
actual ETH price on the date of your purchase.
● Minimal participation amount: no cap
● ICO operational phases:
○ First:
■ 01/30/2018—02/14/2018
■ Token price: 1 ADM = 0.0002 ETH
○ Second:
■ 02/15/2018—02/28/2018
■ Token price: 1 ADM = 0.0003 ETH
○ Third:
■ 03/01/2018—06/30/2018
■ Token price: 1 ADM = 0.0004 ETH

● Participation Bonuses (same for all phases):
○ from 20 to 30 ETH: + 20% for total ADM gain volume
○ from 30 to 50 ETH: + 30% for total ADM gain volume
○ from 50 to 90 ETH: + 40% for total ADM gain volume
○ more than 90 ETH: + 50% for total ADM gain volume

I do not understand why to make a messenger based on blockchain. It's too much. The concept of bitmessage is much more attractive

As stated in the ADAMANT Whitepaper (Page 10):

Alternative solutions review and their comparison
Messengers are the most popular and convenient way of communication in the modern
world. The number of available messengers is counted by hundreds and the amount of
people who use at least one messenger is close to 100% of all smartphone and PC owners.
However, the percentage of security-oriented and anonymous messengers which are
independent from a centralized server (or a group of) is distinctively low.
Since ADAMANT’s main features are security and anonymity, there are only proper
alternatives considered within our comparison (this is why we don’t review such
messengers like Kik Messenger, Skype, Google Hangout etc).
With respect to the fact that security, anonymity and usability often contradict each
other, we do value the messenger’s accordance to security and anonymity criterias as an
advantage in our comparison. For example — if the messenger is making a notification
about message “Read” status — this kind of behavior is a loss of anonymity for “pleasing
the usability”.
We had also excluded from our comparison all messengers which does not have a
functional prototype: like Echo, Status, Crypviser; and all messengers that are available
only for the desktop environments (and do not operate on smartphones): like RetroShare,
Tox, Bitmessage, Ricochet.

https://image.ibb.co/cPa4gx/ADAMANT_vs_the_rest.png

Thus ADAMANT is made to solve the confidentiality and security issues.

Thank you for your contribution to our community, it's very appreciated!
I am incredibly thankful that you're helping to spread the word about the project.

[Azza1070]

Is it clear how contributors will be paid back? once you have established how the project makes money, how does a contributor get some of it?

From the ADAMANT Whitepaper (Page 24):

«ADAMANT Grows»
To make ADM tokens even more valuable, all the dedicated for the ICO campaign tokens
being unsold will be distributed among the actual ADM owners — their wallet balances
will proportionally grow by 5% monthly for an estimate period of a one year after the ICO
ends up.
As far as ADM is an Utility-token which is used to maintain the network infrastructure, the
ADAMANT Grows system is only aimed to protect the conceptual system aspect and not
suitable for gaining profits.
This distribution will be eventually stopped with the ICO wallet depletion.
Therefore, the earlier you’ll support ADAMANT, and the longer you’ll hold your tokens, the
more “grow”-bonuses you’ll get.
● Distribution beginning: 04/11/2018
● Distribution period: monthly
● Growth percent: 5%
● Distribution closure: eventually with ICO wallet depletion.
These wallets do not participate in token distribution campaign:
1. All initial system wallets (ICO, investors rewards, Adoption, reserve wallets);
2. Wallets with their balance being less than 10 ADM tokens.
The information about each distribution round details is open (hence will be published on
an official website) and all growth transactions are visible through the ADAMANT
Explorer.

From the ADAMANT Whitepaper (Page 14):

Infrastructure maintaining and ADM token forging (mining)
ADAMANT infrastructure is handled by a system of distributed servers that are running
full nodes (blockchain). All servers’ support expenses are covered by ADM tokens forging:
1. Transaction fees
2. Rewards for blocks forging.
To participate in forging process, a node should be registered as a network delegate and
afterwards receive enough votes from ADAMANT users. Delegate registration fee is 3000
ADM. An ADAMANT user voting for another delegate is required to pay 50 ADM.
DPoS scheme functioning algorithm is based on a voting process that proceed in real-time
mode (with the use of the reputation level of the network members) which is aimed to
create a list of trusted nodes (delegates). After being elected, delegates have the
legitimate right to create and verify blocks for adding them to the blockchain and also
prevent invasion into the process. These nodes forge (create) blocks one after another in
an order that randomly changes after each round.
Delegates do forge (obtain or earn) themselves ADM tokens when creating new blocks.
The amount of tokens being produced this way is constantly increasing. With the system
inception it was to be 0.5 ADM per 1 block, but each 6 307 200 blocks (approximately a
year in real time) this number decreases by 0.05 ADM till fit 0.1 ADM. This forging reward
increase is going to motivate all delegates to manage the increasing network loads.
Regarding the calculations, the delegates will gain these rewards approximately for 140
years, after which the infrastructure will be fully supported by transaction commissions
only.
The number of active delegates participating in blocks forging is 101. In case when their
number is lower than that, these 101 votes will be allocated among the existing members
which operate as a full node. The minimum amount of such nodes is 3. The whole system
becomes more stable and reliable with the amount of nodes increasing.
To create (or forge) new blocks using DPoS, an election do take place in which 101 delegate
members are chosen from the delegate pool in order to make all ongoing 101 blocks.
The voting is executed by nods (all wallet owners) automatically, based on the trust in
particular delegates and their online uptime. After all delegates are being chosen, they are
given an order in which new blocks should be formed. Creating a que of 101 blocks
approximately takes 8 minutes.
Important to note however, that the payment for block forging starts only after the
sequence of 2,000,000 first blocks is being created. This measure guarantees that the
initial network participants won’t get their tokens with the minimum amount of effort.

Other than these two incentives, you can sell your tokens when they're listed on exchanges.

In my opinion, and after I read and translated the Whitepaper, I think this project is not necessarily for mass adoption -just right now- as any other typical messenger, this is for people and companies that appreciate -and need- 100% privacy, anonymity and confidentiality. In the future though, I think with blockchain disrupting every industry, world can turn into this kind of data protection models for daily use applications. So users will prefer to pay a small fee in order to make sure their identity and privacy will be totally locked down,

Great response, completely agree.
Thank you for your informative comment!

[Azza1070]

Hello. The development of a new secure messenger is an urgent issue for today in Russia. The team has every chance to succeed.

Could not agree more!
Thank you for your comment.

[Azza1070]

It is unreadable

Please see the language variations of the ADAMANT Whitepaper here: https://adamant.im/whitepapers-library/

[Azza1070]

That comparison against other product shows huge potential for this messaging platform if the promised tech is delivered in presented way. This the industry which still have huge space of growth for every project which ensures real privacy and security of data. It looks interesting but need to read it well.
