[lanmao]

Good project, a good form of distribution, this donation is a bit like IPO. Who can tell me why there is no IPO now?

[MantaCurrency]

Sounds good guys, will be following

Thanks for the kind words!

Interesting project! I'm not familiar with DAG very much .Could you show me any resource or articles regarding the background of your technology to help me understand this project well.

Sure thing! https://raiblocks.net/media/RaiBlocks_Whitepaper__English.pdf provides an adequate explanation of a DAG enviornment, while http://zerocash-project.org/media/pdf/zerocash-extended-20140518.pdf explains the back-end of zkSNARKs.

What about advisors?

We plan on having 75% released through faucet, 20% for early donators, and 5% to be locked in a Dev fund.

The amount of total Manta created will be 133,248,290.

Though not needed, donations would be sincerely appreciated and would be allocated to future development costs that will be faced. Any contribution will be rewarded appropriately when Manta is initially distributed. Please PM us beforehand so we can verify the transaction with the correct person.
Our fixed rate is $100 = 10500 MANTA, making the maximum MANTA supply to donators of $253,171.75 .
The USD amount of a donation will be calculated using coinmarketcap.com with regards to the time the donation was sent (via the transaction ID).

We are delighted to bring the world this new currency and hope to bring Manta to the top in 2018!

Cheers to all, from Jason and Brian, founders of Manta.

I am in. Donated to the guys.
Feedback on private communication: they communicated ok, described what the funds will be used for. Replied to the additional emails. Spoke quite rationally. There is always some chance that this all can be a fake, but in my view it looked quite decent, so I decided to take a risk. Please do not consider my decision as a promotion, or whatever. Now, I do hope they will keep posting regular updates.

I was going to donate in XRB (still syncing), but I proceeded to donate in ETH.  I'm sorry I cannot send you a PM of the transaction because of the 2 PM limit for new accounts.  This is the transaction: https://www.etherchain.org/tx/0x33f7932730107bd99a768d21c6a741b961e74e3a72c3524a8c686603874c2c84

PS. Looking forward to your project!

Love the name and the idea behind this project.  Following it closely and waiting for the whitepaper

Hello everyone! We're just giving a quick update here.

We are currently in talks with getting a 3rd dev on the team, specifically someone who's specialized in vulnerability testing to ensure Manta is as secure as it can be on release! We're also on target for releasing our whitepaper in mid-Febuary, and are content with our current progress.

Kind Regards,

Brian and Jason, Manta Dev Team

Good to hear about the 3rd dev. And it is quite professional to have set the roadmap dates.
