ABOUT PANDACOIN Rethinking Cryptocurrency Part 1 Easy to use. Easy to buy. Easy to mine. Easy to understand. Global mass appeal. Why do most of the mainstream population currently stay away from cryptocurrencies? Its complex to use. Its troublesome to buy. Its difficult to mine. Its hard to understand. Cryptocurrencies are still in their infant stages and have yet to see widespread mainstream mass market adoption and usage as a unit of exchange both online and offline. There is a need to rethink the current approach to the design and marketing of cryptocurrencies in order to achieve a global mass appeal. The Pandacoin (PND) Development Team is proud to reveal our first major update which highlights our intention of redefining the cryptocurrency landscape, by being the first cryptocurrency to design, develop and package specifically for the mainstream mass market. Pandacoin takes the first steps in building a solid foundation of how cryptocurrencies should be easy to use, easy to buy, easy to mine and easy to understand. Pandacoin will be the cryptocurrency to show to your family and friends that have yet to grasp the concept of decentralized digital currencies. Pandacoin will be the cryptocurrency to tell your work colleagues about, that had been asking if there are any methods to easily buy and mine cryptocurrencies. Pandacoin will be the cryptocurrency that almost anyone, from your teenage daughter, to your technophobe father, that could easily use, obtain and understand. This is just the beginning for Pandacoin. We will continue to improve and add to the existing infrastructure which will make Pandacoin even easier to use, obtain and understand. This way Pandacoin can retain the position as market and thought leaders in the areas of simplicity and ease of usage, in order to reach the global mass market in the future. Rethinking Cryptocurrency Part 2 For Pandacoins next major update, well be putting the currency in cryptoCURRENCY. Pandacoin will be easy to spend and easy to accept as a form of payment. Cryptocurrencies should not only be easy to use, easy to buy, easy to mine and easy to understand, but also easy to spend and accept as a form of payment in order to function truly as a form of decentralized digital currency instead of merely being a commodity. After all, Pandcoin is defined as a cryptoCURRENCY and not a cryptoCOMMODITY. Our next major update to Pandacoin will involve developing coin technologies and infrastructure to encourage Pandacoin to be used as a unit of exchange, by making it easy for individuals (consumer to consumer), vendors and retailers of all sizes (business to consumer) to adopt, spend and accept Pandacoin as a form of payment in the future. The Pandacoin (PND) Development Team had identified multiple fundamental problems that all cryptocurrencies suffer from, which is preventing individuals, vendors and retailers from easily accepting and sending cryptocurrencies as a form of payment. Again, similar to our first major update to Pandacoin, we will be designing, developing and marketing cryptocurrency infrastructures and technologies in a manner that has not been attempted before. An announcement regarding a release date for the second major update to Pandacoin will be made when we have a good estimate of when we can roll out the second major update to Pandacoin. We plan to once again redefine how cryptocurrencies should be easy and simple to use. Near Future Developments to Look Forward to In between the next major update to Pandacoin, certain smaller updates to Pandacoin that we can reveal that will be developed in the near future (or is currently undergoing development) include the following - Pandacoin (PND) Community Crowdfunding platform In order to speed up and increase the numbers of simultaneous developments for Pandacoin, the Pandacoin (PND) Development Team will be developing a Pandacoin (PND) Community Crowdfunding platform. This crowdfunding platform will be in the form of a new dedicated section on our new homepage, to feature projects which can be funded by the community to further develop Pandacoin and its growing ecosystem. Projects utilizing the Pandacoin Community Chest funds will be showcased in this platform also. The platform will double up as a public project management tool used by the Pandacoin (PND) Development Team to show the community the following - Development schematics and mock up designs - Development list of deliverables - Estimated development delivery time - Live progress updates on different stages of development We have contacts with individuals that are interested in privately bulk buying PND for FIAT at a set price, so the community does not need to worry about the conversion of large amounts of Pandacoins to traditional money via exchanges to fund these developments. More details on this initiative will be released shortly, and the community can expect the platform to be developed in approximately 1 months time. PandaWallet for Apple iOS It was unfortunate that one of our test homepages had been exposed a few weeks ago, which prematurely revealed the Apple iOS PandaWallet. We wanted it to be a surprise for the community after the development is finished, but now we can officially confirm that it is currently undergoing development and the community could expect the release shortly. PandaBank improvements With the worlds first main storage of cryptocurrency designed with a familiar interface and functionalities that is reminiscent of conventional internet banking, we would like to further refine PandaBank so that it would be even easier and secure to use. Upgrades scheduled for the Pandacoin PandaBank include: - 2FA on login and transfer to improve security to protect your Pandacoins - Ability to schedule one off or repeated transactions at a certain time and date - User experience optimization - Exciting secret features that would be released with the second major update to Pandacoin that we do not wish to announce yet Crypto Crash Course Video Education series We will be creating a series of short 2-3 minute animated videos on the major topics from our Crypto Crash Course, making it even easier to educate the beginners that are just getting into the exciting yet fast paced world of cryptocurrencies. These videos are designed to increase awareness to the exciting world of cryptocurrencies, so you can forward the videos to your friends and family if they ever enquire about anything cryptocurrency related. Chinese and other languages support on all key Pandacoin infrastructure To encourage Pandacoin adoption in China and other crucial market segments, we will be focusing on providing Chinese and other languages support on all key Pandacoin infrastructure. This will allow Pandacoin to truly obtain a global mainstream mass market appeal. Key infrastructures that will receive additional language support include: - Homepage - Crypto Crash Course - PandaBank - PandaWallet - BuyPND - Browser Miner - PandaMiner PandaBank-Lite - A lightweight version of PandaBank which does not involve downloading the entire Pandacoin blockchain FAQ How long has the PoW phase been running so far? Pandacoin (PND) had begun their PoW phase since Feb 16, 2014 and has been mined for 95 days. Pandacoin (PND) is one of the rare PoS coins with such a long PoW phase, a duration of more than 3 months, to distribute the coins fairly out towards the community. What will the maximum number of Pandacoins (PND) be? Not fixed nor limited when we switch over to PoS. We switched to PoS when 32,000,000,000 Pandacoins (PND) were mined, which marks the end of the approximately 3 months of PoW phase. You can see how many Pandacoins are currently in circulation here - http://bitinfocharts.com/pandacoin/ How can I start earning 2.5% annual interest? You will have to download our new PandaBank, have it unlocked and leaving your PandaBank open with an online connection to start staking interest! Can I still mine Pandacoin (PND) directly with my mining rig? With Pandacoin (PND) as a pure PoS coin, you would not be able to mine it directly. Instead, you will mine other digital currencies and exchange them for Pandacoin (PND) through our ever growing MH/S multipool. This way, you will be able to still mine Pandacoin (PND) from the multipool, and help increase the value of Pandacoin (PND) at the same time.

The Pandacoin (PND) multipool automatically switches between coins to mine based on difficulty and price variations in order to be as profitable as possible for the miners. For payout, the multipool computes the proportional share of each miner over rounds that last four hours. Once a round is complete, and after the mined blocks become mature, the multipool exchanges all coins for Pandacoin (PND). Please note that due to the time required for block maturation, deposits and withdrawals on exchanges, payouts for a round are processed one hour after the end of the next one. The multipool also apply a fee of 1.25%, in addition to the exchange and transactions fees required by the operation Proof of Stake is confusing me. Is there a Proof of Stake FAQ?
