[PRE-ANN] Tangram - Privacy by design focused DAG Network

[coindrunk]

Seems to be a hard fought battle right now about who is going to be the first one publishing a working privacy focused DAG Cryptocurrency. Hopefully at least one project is able to deliver in 2018.

Alright guys, some of you may of heard that we have announcement planned for today, as you are busy reading this, you can see that's true. So, let's get down to the nitty gritty.

Alpha Release 0.1

What does this mean?

All contributors and community fund members are immediately confirmed to be Alpha testers, 13/30. If you are not a Contributor or Community Fund holder, please reply that you’d like to be a tester (first come, first serve).

If you are a contributor or community fund member and you are NOT able to participate in the Alpha 0.1 Release, please do mention it so we can share your slot with somebody else whom may be interested in testing.

We will run this post for 5 days (9th March 2018) and acceptance of testers will be closed, once done, we will notify those testers on the day to please join our Discord so we can communicate the necessary.

How will this testing take place?

We’re using Swagger API Explorer (CLICK ME) for our “GUI” that’s important because you’ll need some experience in REST APIs (its simple, POST, PUT & GET calls), however, we’ll be creating a user manual on our WIKI so you can see the commands in order to play with your wallets (transactions etc…)

Further details on how you will share your wallet address amongst the testers will be made clear closer to the time.

Specifics of the release:

Only 1 node will be running, this because we are starting to benchmark the bare minimum speed of the transactions with everything stripped down to test one the use cases of Sneak (value transfer).

What’s important to note?
In order to clearly define expectations we’re outlining what you will be able to do and what you won't be able to do. Here are the details:

What does this include?

Create Wallet
Create addresses, each wallet can have multiple addresses
Create tokens
Send transactions
Receive transactions
Retrieve blocks

What this release does not include:

GUI
Encryption
Privacy
Zero-knowledge Proof of Work
Security

When will testing begin?

Fri (09 March) / Sat (10 March)
Will run indefinitely

Once you've replied within this thread, please join our || Discord!!

I would like to participate in the Alpha. Please sign me up!

Another fucking copycat scam

 

Are you sure? At least they have a working alpha, linkedin dev-profiles and an active github account. So at least its less of a scam than stone, manta, azulik, mist and similar projects.

Quick update on the progress that has been made this week.

1. Transferring funds will have a stealth option

Couple of things that has been considered:

Wallet traceability has three constraints, transactions, amounts and addresses. The other constraint is user usage i.e user tags his/her identity to the address. SO, how do we hide or create anonymity? Mwahaha... Its on its way.. (pingpong has gone mad)

2. curveZMQ is partially in.. We just can't use or see it while testing using the Swagger API  explorer.
Once pingpong has got the rest end-point to work with ring and zero proof.. He will need to add more cryptography algos which will obfuscate the transaction block. Plus adding something that he thinks is going to blow your mind. So, after some deliberation... stealth payments are in now modifying the transactions lookup and then verify that its all working.

Stealth payments must protect both sender and recipient, which the norm only protects the recipient. Another implementation on transaction values will feature range proofs!!! Interested in range proof/ Take a look here -
 https://www.ingwb.com/themes/blockchain-articles/ing-launches-major-addition-to-blockchain-technology

3. Modified transaction to include stealth payment..  Transaction are verified. Now to take ownership.

Expect something soon...To be continued...
