There have been several updates on Facebook today. Apparently they are experiencing some technical problems with the App (earlier today they had posted about the new tech updates to the app).

Posted around 2:30 pm forum time:
"Tech updates to App- V2.4.2
Your Mobile Miner has new functions; we have new visual notifications on your wallet progress. See the following for more information on how your wallet will update you on the progress of your Mobile Miner payouts:" (I was unable to post the images, so here is the link to the post: https://www.facebook.com/electroneum/posts/1993455274249774)

"Hi, We are experiencing a technical problem with our new Android app. The new notification system is falling over in some instances and it's causing people to stop mining. Our tech team are working on it and are confident they can fix it from our server side. Please bear with us and we'll have everyone back up and running as fast as possible. Thanks for your patience."

It's just bad that they always roll out updates without testing them, and after the update is made public, within a few hours, they apologize and ask for our patience.

It just keeps on happening, every time.

BTW, does anybody have any idea at all that from what fund (or from what ETN reserves) they're rolling out the mobile mining payouts, since it's not the actual mining (according to the app details)? Roll Eyes

Like they could actually test it on every device, with different Android versions! It's not like they have a dangerous bug, from what I understand it just has something to do with the notification and the aggresive power saving some Android versions have.
As for your question: They are unsold coins from the ICO, or in other word, part of premined coins that were meant to be distributed to the community in various ways.
I'm sorry but I can't find a source for it, I just remember it from when Electroneum was starting.
