So finally the ICO is on! Good luck to the team! I'll be closely following the result and will also invest in it.
In the end it's a no-lose situation since the funds will be returned if ICO is not successful.

Thats a really interesting project.
Is it possible to setup a node by myself to help the network and earn rewards from transaction fees?

I think you'll be able to run a node after the launch. It would make the system centralized if users weren't able to run their own nodes.
Is This proof of Stake, how many coins needed for a Node? Interested to get a Node asap if this is PoS since its a promising project!
In the whitepaper in section 2.1 – Rewarding scheme it says both:
[...] process enough transactions on their own nodes to generate enough reward to pay.
The network will reward users that are part of the network, but are not active to limit spam and the use of bots.
Looks like both inactive and active nodes are rewarded.

Interesting project. If I understood correctly, a private message will cost a certain amount of mWWAM for the sender?

I want to understand. You ll also have mobile apps? Or you planning releasing adnroid and ios apps? Cause its more demand now

WWAM is a protocol. Anyone can build an application on top of it. If anybody wants to build a mobile app he'll be able too.
Ok, now I understand. With your protocol you, so to speak, provide the basis, where apps can be built on. That's really cool!
Havn´t seen a token using PoS ... I guess technicaly not possible..
Anyway.. some kind of interest should work though

I dont think that this token can stake, because it is based on ERC20.
But i can imagine, if you setup a node, then you can gain a small amount of reward through the transaction fees.

project look very promising. i have question what's price on ICO and what minimum goal this project. my point of views this project gonna successful project.
From http://wwam.io/ico :
1 ETH will get you 200,000 mWWAM (200 WWAM). The minimal goal for funding is 500 ETH.

If they do it as masternode feature it would really bring more attention, as those coins are really popular.

It'll be interesting to see how the issue of spam is addressed. Although the whitepaper states that spam won't be an issue because the recipient needs to authenticate the message, I would think that there is still a necessity for the recipient to look at the message first?
For example: if you want to start a chat with a friend, you give that friend your WWAM address, and then your friend sends you a message. But as there isn't a way to 'whitelist' your friend's address from the beginning, the messenger app won't know whether your friend's message is spam or not. There would be a need for you to 'whitelist' your friend's address by firstly viewing the message.
Or maybe I'm just missing something.

I think that feature like that should be easily programmable so I would not be worry about something like that.
They're still using the blockchain so they need to have addresses. I don't think any blockchain could possibly work without addresses.

Thank you. I understand now. Sounds interesting. Its ll be a platform for other apps, not only app

Hey,
I think your project is something worth to keep an eye on, because in recent days we lose more and more control about our privacy. To be honest I am not a programmer or someone with a lot of knowledge how all this protocols work but before investing into a coin I want to understand it and know if it fits for me.
I have two questions at the moment.
The first one is: Your project ist build on an anonymous messaging protocol. Do you think this could be abused for bad? And would there be a backdoor or something for the developers to reveal abuse?
The second one is: Recently there were news about other coins that got revelead as not so anonymous than it was thought, do you think that something like that could happen in any way to you? I mean, never say never, but have you plans to keep it as anonymous as it should be?
Anyways, keep the good work up!

Whitepaper p. 9
Quote
WWAM seeks to make it impossible, for communication between users, to be compromised in any
instance, when communicating over the internet. All messages between users on the WWAM network will
be encrypted. Encryption will be mandatory, and un-encrypted messages rejected automatically by the
network.
The nodes will have zero knowledge about the users on the platform, and they will not be able to read
messages and content. Users will not be required to register to use WWAM, thereby rendering login and
password combinations useless. There will be no central server to store private information, and all
messages will stay in the blockchain. Contact lists and message history are non-existent unless the user
opts to maintain one.
WWAM will use a large network of many nodes. Whenever a user sends a message, the network will
process the message on different nodes. If a node on the network sees the user's Internet Protocol (IP)
address, the rest of the network would be oblivious to that information. With a network of thousands of
nodes, it is impossible for an attacker to control enough nodes to access the Internet Protocol (IP) address
of a specific user. Should the improbable happen, and the attacker is able to see the users IP address, they
will not be able to access the users messages

read more about it here: http://wwam.io/Whitepaper.pdf
And as it is supposed to be decentralized, I think there should'nt be the possibility of backdoors for anyone.
Summarize it pretty well, there will be no such thing as a backdoor, the code will be open-sourced anyway
Thank you for the answers. Well this could be a big help for sending informations anonymously and I think people like Snowden would have loved to be able to use this protocol. Would love to see a smartphone messanger using this protocol someday
Ok, I already read the whitepaper, and i have to say this could be HUGE, if you could become what DISQUS is, then you will be on the moon and Mars, this could become the new messenger, nobody could track us, and we would be free to chat away all we want, the more people use it, and the more apps, programs, chats, etc. people makes, the bigger this will become, very promising idea, good luck in the ICO 
.
.i know right. This project can be on a widescale adoption. The team did a great job in creating this concept rather than just creating a anonymous messaging app they've level up the decision and create an anonymous messaging protocol which can be freely use by all. Good times will come for all of us who is supporting this project.
