Due to the performance issues and complexity of the React-native framework, we plan to rewrite askcoin app with google's flutter for better modularity and performance. Wink

Hello is this by any chance related to the AskCoin DAG version? Also max supply is 1000 Billion, so is it 1 trillion total? Also will the Android Wallet be submitted to Google Play?

No, our askcoin uses POW consensus, not DAG.
they just happen to have the same name, they have nothing to do with each other, they are two different projects

At present, we release new version of askcoin on github website.

For new users who have just registered, they have the opportunity to get a random number of free ASK coins to experience the various useful features of askcoin. New users can use these free ASK coins to ask questions, to reward, to transfer money, to answer other people's questions.

Do Windows users can mine? If we can then how? I dont see it in docs.

You can install a linux virtual machine on windows, such as VMware.

How do we know who to ask and whether they are capable of answering the question?

When you want to create a question, you need pay some amount of ASK as reward, when someone sees your question and replies to you, if you're satisfied, you can decide to reward that response, you can also decide how much to reward on each reply.

In the future, we will also develop a built-in decentralized exchange that will allow users to initiate P2P trade directly on the askcoin app

Now, for security reasons, all of askcoin's web addresses have been replaced with HTTPS.
You can safely access the following links:

https://www.askcoin.me
https://explorer.askcoin.me
https://generate.askcoin.me

FYI:
The reason why we want to develop a separate blockchain dapp is that we can't implement all its functions on the existing platform. For example, you can't implement a dapp like askcoin on the platform of Ethereum, because the mobile dapp is connected to the fullnode through websocket, when the block of the fullnode is reorganized or reverse, the mobile dapp also needs to deal with the corresponding complex logic which can't be controlled in detail on Ethereum. In addition, the nodes of Ethereum occupy a lot of disk space, so it's not easy for people to run its fullnode.

We hope askcon will give people some thoughts on where the blockchain industry should go. Askcoin can also bring people real freedom, because it is a really valuable decentralized use case.

From now on, the main site of askcoin will use HTTPS protocol to prevent man-in-the-middle attack, but the block explorer and registry string generator sites still use http, because http is faster, and these two sites do not involve package informations and links of fullnode and mobile app, so there is no factor affecting security. So, there are three sites for you to visit:

https://www.askcoin.me
http://explorer.askcoin.me
http://generate.askcoin.me

I think like you, these exchanges are just ruining the crypto market ... they only value those they like and not who they really deserve. if I can advise you in my opinion if you can make a simple game like slot or roulette where you can bet the ask you would really make a bang;)

Yes, we will add prediction and betting feature on askcoin, but we need to implement decentralized exchange on askcoin first.

To be honest, I don't like centralized exchanges. They charge a lot of money and can decide when to delist a coin in any way they want. I don't think this is the direction that blockchain should go. Blockchain should give everyone a more free life! So in the future, we may develop truly free de-centralized exchange on askcoin.

The title of this topic is changed, because we plan to add event prediction and betting features to Askcoin, which can predict sports events or political events to reflect the actual probability of an event in real time. the event must be clear, no ambiguity, the final result of the event is either TRUE or FALSE, so the players can freely buy TRUE or FALSE to predict whether an event will happen, and finally the witness will publish the result, and each participating account will be settled by the system.
