lol the faucet starts in 1 month and half but 15% of the coins goes to early donators? its has only 350 usd donated until now

Left coins will be burned. (initial max supply is 100m)

Dev, are you going to stay anonymous? Sounds like a big task with what you're doing with Dark Nano. I need more info before I donate.  Grin

Hey, we would like to assure you that the work is turning out magnificent. We are considering in perform a few webinar with the future participants of the test net. However, we will officially reveal ourselves after the alpha phase starts, so we will start the work on publicity.

Hi devs, what is the update with this, are you going to do an airdrop to $NANO holders? I like all these $NANO hybrid projects, it just gives more validity to Nano's tech.

We decided we will host faucets, and perform airdrops to those who support us during the test net ( soon), and with other future activities. Thank you for the support 😊

The project is kind of interesting, but what is the site graphics? are you planning a rebranding? I wait for detailed information. white paper, the date of sale of the tokens

We will launch whitepaper's first version during this month, with technical and general information. You will also be able to reserve a few DarkNano by helping our team (translations, website, testnet), or by sending us a donation to one of the addresses in our first post.

If you guys wanna clear up more detailed doubts, feel free to PM us =D

Can you please explain how Zksnark will work with the block lattice prococol? You need to know the representative's balance in case of an attack but if you obfuscate this with zero knowledge proof there wont be a way to know. It just doesn't make sense to me and that's why I think this is scam unless you can have technical explications about your implementation of Zksnark on NANO.

In simple words, each wallet has 2 blockchains. The obfuscated one, receives information from main chain (its composition is similar to block-lattice), and interact with other nodes, with encrypted informations (funds and blocks). zk-SNARKs always operates when connecting information between these two, this way, ensuring block sender's address cannot be identified when transfered to final destination. With our best, we've got a 2 second time for each protocol's realization, and now our focus is to work in a stress test (to check if it could turn expensive for a full node, and whether we would need to add low fees or not).

Sonn we will launch a first draft of whitepaper, and solve deeper doubts.


Best regards, DarkNano team =D

We also organized this little outline, representing the functionality of DarkNano’s net and how transactions are obfuscated. Basically, each node possesses a z representative, that is generated randomly in an unique side chain of each wallet (it is impossible to identify the z address of each regular address). The node and the znode communicate amongst themselves when identifying a transaction, and that information is transmitted to all of the side chain taking the form of instantaneous blocks, with the realization of the PoW only in between the swap from the zaddress to main address and transmitting between zaddresses without PoW, to enter a consensus within the entire side chain. To simplify the functionality, in a transaction AB:



1-Address A performs a small PoW, transmits the information to zA, performing the zero-knowledge proof
2-Node Pool is instantaneously communicated, and interacts with its respectives zNodes to vote in side chain  on 3
4-With 50%+1 of the votes in side chain, the transaction occurs between zA and zB
5-Reverse process of 1, and after confirmed, B performs a small PoW

*A and B may take a full node as representatives, and perform same process demonstrated, like it works with Nano. *The side chain is 100% obfuscated, and work only with zero knowledge connections with the full nodes
 **The transactions may stay as pending in the side chain, and transmitted to the main address when online, because both chains are at all times operating in sintony
 ***The estimated time of transactions completed from blocks is that of at most 4 seconds, and it is limited by the hardware available in the Nodes ( the space taken ends up being bigger, due to double interaction)
****The 4 seconds time is due to double zero knowledge proof

Hello everyone! Firstly, we would like to apologize for the time without any news whatsoever, which actually generated some  FUD. We were directing all our attention to the code, and are happy to tell you that we already managed to start the first wallet tests (windows) with transactions utilizing the protocol zk-SNARKs, which were more successful than expected.



 This print is from one of the most recent test made, soon we will be able to bring you more news, including a summary version of the whitepaper ( which is being written as you read this ). Pay close attention to the post, we will be updating everyone with amazing news very soon. We also made a few modifications to the distribution, allocating a small % to the future bug bounty, giving you incentive to look for glitches in the obfuscation protocol and in the security area( we assure you that the works is being well done, we are proud of it ourselves)
 We would also like to clarify, in regards to the FUD, in relation to the donations. We are working 24/7 in DarkNano, because we believe it is a project that will change the way cryptocurrency is seen in the world market, however, like everyone, we do have your bills to pay ,and we would also like to extend our gratitudes to those whore helping and supporting us from the beginning.


Thank you! Sincerely, the DarkNano team

Love that you altered the gameplan to make it more airdrop/faucet centric devs! Gives us trust in you guys Smiley

Is there anywhere we should get in line for this airdrop other than posting to this forum? Thanks!

Hey! If you help us with designs, divulgation, websites, telegram channel or anything, we will evaluate and tell you how much XDK we will distribute for you! Right now, we are 100% focused on testing transfers, so we don't have much time to work on this things. PM us if you have any suggestion =)

how i mine?

There is no mining, total supply will always be 100m (unless we burn some before official release).

We will be constantly updating this thread, and in a few days publish our roadmap with a small scheme of our code working. Thank you for the support, this is gonna be a open and clean work, we don't intend on staying anonymous for much long.



Anyone deposit money to this project deservs to lose his money. This is the same guy as stone, mantra and f@#k knows what else he tried to scam people with.
I'm sorry some of you may have donated to suspicious promises, we truly got surprise when we discovered other people were working in a similar idea in such a short time, saying it could be ''easily'' done.

Presenting you DarkNano!

Fast, fee-less, scalable and privacy. All in one cryptocurrency

Principles:
-Dark Nano is a DAG cryptocurrency, which uses as its basis the same elements as Nano (dPoS), bringing primordial elements for a successful microtransactions coin. We are working hard on testing the main protocols of Raiblocks/Nano with some changes in the block-lattice operation, while also implementing a privacy protocol.
- We aim to convey a solid project, which delivers a strong and secure cryptocurrency to users while maintaining privacy and instant transactions.


How far we’ve come:
-Preliminary tests have already been made with zk-SNARKs that resulted in limited success. However, the dPoS verification speed is significantly slowing down, resulting in a lower than expected Tx/s. On the other hand, we’ve had success restructuring the code with the final goal of having a 2 second time transaction, which is unfortunately bringing difficulties with the PoW step.
Even Though our main focus has been with zk-SNARKs, and our priority is to finish testing all outcomes with our current script, we are still open minded and have not discarded the possibility of testing alternative methods to implement privacy.

About us:

-Our team at the moment consists of 2 core developers, and we are in currently negotiating with a web designer. Me, Louis, and Joshua, will be constantly updating you with our progress, the possible dates for publishing wallets, the coding process, and everything else related to DarkNano.
We have followed Collin's Raiblocks project since it's beginning, and have decided to start slowly building our cryptocurrency last year. Watching Raiblocks/Nano enormous growth, we decided it was time we started working on it full time, make it happen as soon and as effectively as possible and change people's life. At this early stage, we have decided to stay in anonymity until we deliver a finished code as well as the wallets. This way we can also start building up a strong marketing trajectory and move forward to exchange listings.

How will it work:

Roadmap:












Distribution:
It's not our main priority right now, but we are planning on making faucets (like Raiblocks), or maybe airdrops to Nano holders. We will also give DarkNano coins for early donators, and distribute for those who participate actively in testnet.

The distribution method taken will be the one we find fairer
(thoughts and ideas in the comments are appreciated)
Our current percentages are:
-3.5% as a dev fund
-2.5% for bug bounty
-15% to early donators
-79.5% for public distribution
max supply is going to be 100m DarkNano (XDK)
(the left coins will be burned and reduce the max supply)





Alpha version wallet:




*We will randomly choose donators to participate in our testnet



Whitepaper: (soon)

Github DarkNano: (soon)

Github Windows Wallet: (soon)
