Have you already tried the most anonymous and secure messenger? If not, follow the link https://msg.adamant.im/, create an account, and receive 0.49 ADM to try decentralized chats for free!

I don't believe you can set-up a delegate yet. Lead Devs should be able to give more insight.

thank you. maybe i will visit slack and try to set up a delegate.
why arent there any other delegates yet?
is the interest in this project so low?

These are test-delegates run by the developers.

Please post the link to the project you're referencing.
Small (ADM) token fees are paid by users to send messages within the ADAMANT Messenger.

Also if you can offer something we can discuss it.

Showing token transfers in Chats: Blockchain technology enters closely into our life, making it more convenient! As we said earlier, ADAMANT is working on transferring tokens (ADM, ETH, BTC, LSK, etc.) right in chats. As you’re aware, the ADAMANT Messenger is built upon blockchain-technology that uses the Lisk source code as a base. This brings certain advantages such as high-speed delivery of messages and file exchanges.

I wish I could've participated in the bounty program. I really like the concept of anonymous encrypted messaging and it would be totally awesome if you can also have video calls on the app.

who owns the 101 delegates that are forging right now? are these delegates all connected with the dev-team or even controlled by them?

and why are there 101 delegates only? 0 delegates on standby.

hi there, thanks for a quick response

4. most important I think - what is the use case for the coins?
Page 21 of the ADAMANT Whitepaper (https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf):
ADM is a token, which value is ensured by commissions (fees) for message and data
transfer. These fees are designed to fully cover all infrastructure cost dictated by the
needs for anonymous and secure data transmission.
ADAMANT Business Service also includes digital document signing (approving) features.
There is an additional ADM value that is produced through the distribution process of all
remainings of the unsold tokens which were allocated for the ICO campaign. This process
is named “ADAMANT Grows” and users that have enough ADM tokens within their wallet
balances will receive proportionally monthly rewards for the approximate period of a one
year after the ICO ends up.

Are you saying people will have to pay money to be able to send a message? if this is true, how you are going to compete with ex. mesenger which is free?

thanks

Hi vlom,
I am a native-English speaker. Please feel free to ask me your questions in English, as the team is mostly Russian-based.
You can also contact me in the more active English Telegram Channel here: http://t.me/adamant_eng
Or directly: @Azza1070

Hi Jones, thank you for your comment, it means a lot to us.
We're happy to answer all questions informatively.

 1. So Genesis is 98 million, how the rest of the coins - 102million will be distributed?
Page 21 of the ADAMANT Whitepaper (https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf):
"102 millions of ADM tokens (+ transaction fees) will be used to payback the
delegate members for infrastructure support and maintaining the network functional.
To learn more on the forging rewards — please read the “Infrastructure maintaining and
ADM token forging (mining)” section of this original document."

 2. Is this Dpos blockchain, if so how look the inflation and for how long?
The ADAMANT Blockchain is based on DPoS.
See Page 12 of the ADAMANT Whitepaper (https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf) for more details:
Token name: ADAMANT (ADM)
● DPoS algorithm (Delegated Proof of Stake)
● Maximum tokens amount: 200 000 000 ADM
● Genesis-block: 98 000 000 ADM
● Block time: 5 seconds (17 280 blocks per day, about 6 307 200 blocks per year)
● Block size: variative (not limited)
● Reward per block:
○ First year: 0.5 ADM per block
○ Another years: decreasing by 0.01 ADM every year till fit 0.1 ADM
○ Rewards start from: block number 2,000,000

 3. how many delegates will secure the blockchain - delegates will be more like lisk or more ark?
Page 14 of the ADAMANT Whitepaper (https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf):
"The number of active delegates participating in blocks forging is 101. In case when their
number is lower than that, these 101 votes will be allocated among the existing members
which operate as a full node. The minimum amount of such nodes is 3. The whole system
becomes more stable and reliable with the amount of nodes increasing."

 4. most important I think - what is the use case for the coins?
Page 21 of the ADAMANT Whitepaper (https://adamant.im/whitepaper/adamant-whitepaper-en.pdf):
ADM is a token, which value is ensured by commissions (fees) for message and data

If you purchase tokens through a website that monitors your details (most general exchanges/exchange-markets) then yes, the link to your identity is known. However, if you purchase cryptocurrencies anonymously, or purchase them from a monitored exchange and then trade them for a coin that has absolute privacy (Monero, Zcash, PIVX, etc), then the link with your identity is broken, as long as you stay off exchanges that can track your identity (after that point).

For example:
If you purchase 1 ETH on CoinBase, your details are monitored everywhere you send that ETH.
If you send your 1 ETH to a decentralized exchange (such as: Gate.io), and swap your ETH for Monero.
You can now send your Monero anonymously to another exchange or website (that does not monitor details) and your identity cannot be known (depending on the website/exchange).
If the ADM token could be exchanged directly for Monero (XMR), then there is no possible way to track your identity, and thus you can purchase ADM tokens anonymously in this way.
A good strategy for the ADAMANT team would be to get the ADM token listed on as many decentralized exchanges as possible, or to create a decentralized token-swapping feature. Lead Devs might know more on this.


Yes, the ADAMANT platform is built on a forked-Lisk codebase.
The delegate feature should be available shortly, I believe the question on whether staking and voting will be introduced was answered in the English Telegram group about 2 weeks ago, with a rough estimation being 2-3 weeks (1 more week from now). A Lead Dev should be able to answer this question in more detail.

Details on how to set-up a delegate will be explained once the feature is available.
