Aion Desktop Wallet Released
We are proud to release our Aion Desktop Wallet v1.0.0 for Linux! This release of the wallet is our first iteration of a full fledged wallet compatible with Aion. On top of a refreshed UI, the ability to send transactions and view transaction history, the Aion Desktop Wallet will feature 3 new main functionalities:
Unlimited accounts generated from one seed key; which makes account creation easy and streamlined, without the need to input your seed key every instance of account creation.
All accounts generated will be exportable as a keystore; this will allow you to import your wallet to any device running Aion without referring to back to your seed key.
Recover from seed; this feature allows you to recover all accounts generated from your seed key, which makes for a smoother process if you wish to transfer all accounts from one device to another. Even if your device corrupts, you can still access all accounts and balances should you have saved your seed key elsewhere.
System requirements needed to run the Aion Desktop Wallet:
Ubuntu 16.04
Access to Aion Node v0.2.8
We encourage users to submit all technical bugs to GitHub, as well as discuss on our forums for conversation and inquiries here.
If you’re interested running and using the wallet your, documentation on how to do so here.
Finally, check out the latest release featuring the new desktop wallet here.

Security is a top priority for AION team.
AION address security is even more secure than Bitcoin & Ethereum:

Blockchain boosters love to compare the technology to the early days of the internet. Blockchains, it’s often said, will open the door to a new global financial system that works like the internet, except instead of moving around little packets of information, it moves money. But there’s a big problem with all that: at the moment, blockchains don’t talk to each other.
This piece first appeared in our twice-weekly newsletter, Chain Letter, which covers the world of blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Sign up here—it’s free!
As new blockchains and other distributed ledger systems proliferate, the result is kind of like a petri dish full of bacteria. They keep multiplying, but they don’t seem headed toward any kind of higher-order organism. The scene is similar to the pre-internet days of the 1960s and 1970s, says Thomas Hardjono of MIT’s connection science program, when there were several separate technical approaches to constructing computer networks. Like then, he says, the key to moving things forward lies in figuring out how to make these individual systems work together.
In the 1970s and 1980s, a combination of academic and US military research led to the construction of a common infrastructure that allowed individual networks to share resources, especially in the event that one of the networks was attacked. We know it as the internet protocol suite, which includes the transmission control protocol (TCP) and the internet protocol (IP)—the bedrock of today’s internet.

As nations consider launching their own cryptocurrencies, Hardjono says, there is the potential to introduce “risk and technical liabilities into your economic system.” If a blockchain system could respond to an attack by transferring its crypto-assets and other functions to a different distributed ledger, that might help avoid a crisis.
Hardjono and two colleagues at MIT argue in a new paper (PDF) that today’s blockchain developers should borrow a concept from the internet protocol suite called the datagram, which is a common unit of information that can move across different networks. “Every network that sees it knows how to parse it and knows how to forward it,” Hardjono says. “What is the datagram equivalent for blockchain systems?”
A startup called Aion is working on answering that question. The company is developing what it calls a “token bridge” that will let holders of Ethereum-based tokens back up their assets on another blockchain—initially, one built and run by Aion—without duplicating the actual monetary supply, says Matthew Spoke, the company’s founder.
The process relies on a group of computers, also called nodes, that have the ability to recognize valid transactions and write new ones to each chain, Spoke says. The nodes that form the bridge will also have a process for reaching agreement amongst themselves and deciding whether to respond to a certain transaction on one of the chains by executing a corresponding one on the other.
Spoke says a big difference between the pre-internet days and the blockchain world is the money: today’s competing protocols are often backed by billions of dollars of investment. That will probably ensure that many will succeed, meaning the future will be ruled by numerous blockchains, he says, and interoperability will be key to mainstream adoption. Whatever we end up with, it probably won’t look like the internet—but it could be just as transformative.

True Aion is a great project. Even when the price of Altcoin fell sharply. All the news about the positive direction of this coin. So I think it's very potential and good to hold some Aion. So people will actually see the project entering the next stage of its life cycle.
For anyone wanting to send mined Aion mainnet coins from your wallet to another, I made easy to follow instructions here (you can even test it out by sending them to yourself 😄:

People think 465m total supply is a lot, but most don’t realize that only 160m will be released to the public.
Aion foundation’s 305m won’t go to public circulation anytime soon since Aion is already well funded:
. Nuco raised $27m in VC funding
. Aion raised $23m in private & presale
To give you an idea on burn rates; Lisk team has 44 people & their current burn rate $240k/month
Aion team has 60 people so even if their burn rate was a whopping $1m/month, that $50m will last them for 4 to 5 years before they even have to sell a single coin of their Aion share.
The 260M in TRS releases 9.8MM public, 8.4MM Aion foundation until Nov 2018.
The remaining 205MM tokens will be distributed to the Aion Foundation monthly over another 2 years ending November 2020.
After Nov 2018, no more tokens will be released to the public. (Beside the 1% mining rewards to secure the network)
Today:
Aion foundation 58m / public 111m
By Nov of 2018:
Aion foundation 100m / public 160m
By Nov of 2020:
Aion foundation 305m / public 160m
Aion bridges consist of deploying smart contracts on Aion & on any participating blockchain without forcing them to change their infrastructures (Ethereum, NEO, etc) so they can:
1. Burn a certain amount of tokens on Blockchain A (ETH erc20, NEO nep5 tokens, etc)
2. Mint that same amount of tokens on Blockchain B (Aion tokens on Aion-1 blockchain)
are there still people investing on AION? we all know that this coin has no future at all and it would be more than surprising to see it recovering back
you sir are obviously malinformed, i suggest you go to official Aion channels. I am not here to convince you to anything, but please do your own research.
Here is also a quick Aion vs Overledger comparison:
Quant Network Overledger:
. Patent-pending Operating System (Patents don't bode well in the crypto space)
. Team of 8 people
. Not much activity on GitHub
. No major partnerships
AION Network:
. Open Source project
. Team of 75 people
. Top 10 Most Active GitHubs
. Top 10 Mainnet by Number of Daily Transactions
. 2 years in development
. 250,000+ lines of open source code
. 650 people attended 1st Aion Dev conference
. Dev meetups on 4 continents
. Top Partnerships among all Dapp platforms:
https://i.imgur.com/YSxuqAI.jpg
Quant Network Overledger states that it is not another blockchain, it’s the “Overledger” that sits on top of blockchains providing a meta-gateway, so looks like Overledger will forever be relying on the Ethereum blockchain for its QNT ERC-20 token.
Meanwhile, Aion is all these 3 things:
1. Dapp platform (Like Ethereum, EOS & NEO)
2. Router that interconnects networks
3. Framework for Spoke chains that can scale infinitely to achieve unlimited TPS (This can practically replace all the hyped high-performance blockchain projects out there)
