[PRE-ANN] Manta - DAG & zkSNARKs - Fast, Fee-less, Private Cryptocurrency

[MantaCurrency]

Manta is being created to fulfill an un-solved need within the Crypto community, a combination of speed, privacy, and fee-less transactions. Its design utilizes DAG and will be a heavily modified fork of RaiBlocks which will allow for ~1750 tx/s allowing for transactions in a scaled environment to remain under 15 seconds.


>>Why only 1750tx/s? Is this the max it can achieve? Is the limitation caused by the atmic swap of the untraceable coin?

The speed of ~1750tx/s is because of usage of the atomic swaps, which is still quite fast since it's untraceable and only has a ~10 second transaction time.

What's the difference between your coin and Raiblocks?

Our coin aims to provide fast transactions of around ~10 seconds to the end user while adding privacy in transactions which RaiBlocks does not have. Think of it as a cross between RaiBlocks and Zcash.

I think that is good combo, feeless + privacy. And ANN says 75% distribution via faucet. Do you mean airdrop?

Thanks for the kind words. We are currently deciding between airdrop and faucet, though we're leaning more towards faucet.

Faucets are much more fair.

I agree, its better to let everyone have a chance.

Transaction speed and zooming at the moment a serious problem ... I Hope you will succeed ,good luck !

Thanks!

I have heard two same project with DAG and zkSNARKs
The project called Stone and paper if i'm not wrong,
I hope the man behind all three project above is not same

[SangSoerya]

Hello everyone, I would love to work on this project, I am a graphic designer and could take care of this part. But, why this name "Manta", is that fish? It does not seem to convey the 3 fundamentals of the project: 1 Fast, 2 Private and 3 Secure, I would have some ideas of names and a design aligned with the proposal, if they are interested I am ready.

I first thought you guys are just another team of scammers but your distribution model suggests otherwise. I am always wondering why people first post their stuff on bitcointalk and then say that any technical documentation will follow much later. But it seems you probably came up with your idea rather recently. Going to read your stuff once published.

[CoinMenX]

interesting 

[moneroguru]

Devs, are you willing to reveal your ids and your profiles/work and so on?

If you have startd prototyping, a git hub would be useful too.

I was and still am interested in stone, but i still have doubts about donating.

I was planning to drop 1btc but now i am leaning towards doing in milestones.


This would greatly help

Watching and waiting for more details

We plan on revealing ourselves after our official release, though we are releasing our whitepaper soon, we hope you'll be impressed!

[PixelJim]

Hmm.. people want tech like this. Watching closely.

[jacksonpollock]

Made a small donation, if this comes out, it'll be a top tier coin for sure

[GeePeeU]

I like the concept of majority distribution via faucets. It seems very fair. Hope I don't miss the launch. Good luck.
