[XBN] Bitnote: the secure, private, untraceable CryptoNote based Cryptocurrency

[xbn-project]

Bitnote

Resistant to bots, resistant to bans. Protecting your privacy, your freedom, and your investment.

Digital cryptocurrencies are slowly adapting to everyday life to create a new revolutionary economy based around digital money. Bitnote allows anyone, anywhere to send money instantly around the world at nearly zero fees.

Bitnote is a digital Cryptocurrency based on the CryptoNote technology. Bitnote provides complete anonymity for users within the blockchain by using the revolutionary concept of Ring Signatures. Ring Signatures mixup transaction data with other transactions to make it nearly impossible for blockchain analysist to determine where the money came from, and who it was sent to.

About

Bitnote was launched on 2/16/18 at 5:00 PM Eastern time.
Bitnote is a digital Cryptocurrency based on the CryptoNote technology, allowing anyone to send and receive money anywhere on or off earth.

Bitnote offers but is not limited to the following features:

• True anonymity & data protection
• Untraceable payments uses ring signature
• Unlinkable transactions with random data by the sender
• Blockchain analysis resistant
• CPU/GPU mining, ASIC-resistant

So with that being said, still curious why Bitnote is different than the other CryptoNote based Cryptocurrencies?
Bitnote is intended to be an alternative to other CryptoNote coins because, our goal for Bitnote is to become a light weight, easy to use, fast version of Monero while not forking Monero's source code. Bitnote uses a custom difficulty algorithm (as seen above) which allows for protection against hash attacks, botnet attacks etc... This also allows for household/hobbyist miners to put that old once expensive mining hardware to use and make a buck. Bitnote strives for speed and anonymity throughout it's blockchain. Bitnote is still in it's very early development stages, and we are continuing to improve it as time moves on...

Where can i view your white-paper?
Since Bitnote is a direct fork from the CryptoNote implementation, we felt it was unnecessary at this time. However you can view the original CryptoNote white-paper for more info on how Bitnote works. (See below)

• CryptoNote White-paper
• CryptoNote Annotated White-paper

When will pre-built source code binaries release?
Pre-built binaries for Bitnote will be released within a few days from the Bitcoin Talk ANN post. If you would like to build the source code your self, or just snoop around and view the work we've done so far, checkout our Github Page.

What will the premine be used for?
Bitnote was premined 1 million coin out of a maximum supply of 12 million, this is to pay for very pricy exchange listing fees (reference); bounties for things such as but not limited to, graphic design, social media content, forum postings, bug reports and other future concepts for Bitnote...

How did the premine take place?
The premine was distributed to our development team from the genesis block, this means we are not post mining any blocks except for the very first block within the blockchain. All blocks after block height 1, are mined by the community...

Roadmap Preview

• Stable GUI wallet builds (Windows, Mac OS, Linux: Coming soon...)
• Web wallet, block explorer
• Apply for exchange listing (Currently pending: TradeOgre.com)
• Fork the blockchain and increase minimum mixin count from 0-3, at the target block height...

Donations

Feel free to leave us a donation at our Bitnote address, this is always optional...

[sorinslv]

fail launch, im a stupid with windows how to make wallet?

[iTiamo]

1 million pre-mine on 12 million max supply, really?

[vuppie0]

What is the current block height, has the chain forked?

[antoinnepy]

Following closely. But premine is large, dev.

Windows wallet for us mortals?

DEVs probably can't compile own code under windows, just because they don't understand what they are doing

This is a disaster

[CryptoMan007]

trying to mine via on ubuntu, blocks are getting found . yet balance shows 0
Looks like some issue

[vuppie0]

The difficulty is 65912

Perhaps, I like the following statement of developers in this coin. "Bitnote is a digital Cryptocurrency based on CryptoNote technology, Bitnote provides complete anonymity to users in a block chain using the revolutionary concept of Ring Signatures.Ringsignments combine data transactions with other transactions to make it almost impossible for the analyst to blockchain to determine where the money, and to whom it was sent.
"Perhaps this is one of the necessary requirements for the community.

Every CryptoNote currency has RingCT
