Topic: ANN [MANO] MANO Platform (Read 62360 times)
The Mano team is extremely happy to be able to introduce Pecunia to our community 
After numerous discussions, the Mano team believe that Pecunia are most suited to take Mano forward. Pecunia are a well known masternode hosting provider with a great track record in the crypto space. While there are a multitude of reasons we believe Pecunia will offer the best chance of success for Mano, I'd like to highlight just a couple : -
- They have fantastic customer support.
- Pecunia already have a large install base and know how to grow a business.
- As Pecunia is a market leader in hosting services, Mano will be able to grow much faster than if we tried to do so independently.
- They are able to offer competitive hosting rates and a proven technical solution.
- Pecunia have a vision for Mano that may help to make more utility for the coin
- While hosting services will always be important for Pecunia, they have a team of developers that will be able to bring new services to fruition.
Pecunia is a large piece of the puzzle, but to succeed we need one more thing - you! Over the past couple of years we have had some incredible community support in all facets of the project. It's led to us being able to do things internally that I would never have expected to happen without funds. Things like an automated system for coin listings, a great block explorer, help with all different types of media, creation of our internal doc repository (and the list goes on). To help secure a positive future for Mano, we need to continue to draw on the talents of the community and get everyone more involved. We're going to be taking a few steps over the next weeks to start this off :-
- We will be making some role changes in Discord. Ben and I will shortly be transferred to the "contributors" role. Anyone can become a contributor if they are willing to commit time or skills to the project. Mods and Community Manager roles will be obsoleted and permissions needed will be added to the contributors role.
- We are going to get back online with all the social channels.
- We will start building the community based on user suggestions.
- Mano nodes will become free to host.
The above is a very broad run down and leaves out the specifics. The Pecunia team will be welcomed to our Discord channel next week to discuss their plans for the project and they will be able to provide more details. Relevant details from these discussions will be posted here on Bitcointalk. Ben and I will assist with the transition, and the community will become more invested in Mano’s success.
The TL;DR is that by having free hosting for Mano nodes, competitive pricing for hosting services, upcoming additional coin liquidity/use cases and a talented community supporting the project we have a real shot to make something great.

This is an important update, so please put some time aside to read it.
From the day we took over, we’ve done everything in our power to do what we believed was the best for the coin. Masternode hosting has been our main use case, and something that we believed we could do well and be competitive in. With the large number of masternode hosting companies/coins around now, that is no longer the case. We’ve also had a couple of challenges such as needing to cover someone spinning up a bunch of $0 nodes and not alerting us about the issue and the big elephant in the room - Coronavirus. We had been trying to put money aside for a rainy day to both keep everything going and build the project, but the current situation has backed us into a corner where we will be very close to having lost money after paying off the items that have helped us get back on our feet. Because of these challenges we’ve decided that Mano Host needs to come to a close. What this means is that those who have funds on the platform will receive an email in the coming fortnight and refunds will be provided in Eth (due to low transaction costs). For those who currently have nodes running, these will continue to run until their expiry date. While we would love to continue running Mano Host, the amount of hours worked for no reward means it doesn’t make sense.
.
What happens next is up to the community. We’ve done a lot of work over the past year which has involved substantial cost. We had the blockchain change, swap, an explorer server running 24x7, revision of our masternodesonline listing and a new wallet (among other things). The major outstanding item now is to get on another exchange. Whether that’s by implementing BIP65 functionality for Blocknet or paying for listing on a centralised exchange. BIP65 will need to be paid for, as unfortunately our dev has a backlog of work so we think it’s unrealistic (and to be honest, with the current world situation also a bit mean) to continue asking him to help us for free after he’s already done so much.
What we would like to do is hand everything over bar hosting to a person or group of people willing and capable of taking on the project, and having the community assist these people(s) through bidding for work via governance. This isn’t a one person job, and if anyone is up to the challenge they will need help from the wider community. Doing the Alqo coin spotlight was an eye opener as they were in a similar situation to us only a few months ago and have managed to completely turn it around. But, it’s taken a tonne of work from a lot of people. I believe we can do the same if everyone is willing to pitch in and help with the specific skills they have. I will also help where I can, but the time which I put into Mano is going to need to be substantially reduced.
If you are interested in helping and have the skills/experience we would love to hear from you at [email protected].

At the moment we are only listed on Birake at https://trade.birake.com/market/BIRAKE.MANO_BIRAKE.BTC . There is no option to buy with USDT. We want to list on Blocknet but to do that until our blockchain has a change made to it (BIP65 functionality).
It is always risky to buy the coin that is listed on only one exchange because there will be no exit chance if the exchange decides to delist the coin. I am going to wait till there are at least 2 available exchanges for MANO, and the other good news (in development processes) from the team before investing into the coin.Quote
Our blockchain dev is helping us out with that, but he's working on some other projects also so don't have a definite timeframe as to when that will happen. Yes, we've been working in the background and had a few false starts, but every false start is a learning opportunity and it's slowly coming together.
We still have a lot of work to do so as a suggestion perhaps it would be wise to wait for a couple of weeks to decide whether it's something you'd like to invest in once you see new content start to come out? Then at least you can make a more informed decision.
It's very good to know developments have been made behind the scene. Thanks.We still have a lot of work to do so as a suggestion perhaps it would be wise to wait for a couple of weeks to decide whether it's something you'd like to invest in once you see new content start to come out?

Totally agree regarding the risk of having one exchange only. I'll post any new developments with the project here to keep yourself and others up to date. Thanks.
Hi Everyone,
It's been a busy few months. We're taking a slightly different approach for this update and have posted it on YouTube at https://links.manocoin.net/Feb2020Update
Any and all comments are welcomed and will be responded to. This initial video I realise I'm a bit (lot!) stiff grimacing joy , so will be trading the coffee for something else next time. We've done a lot of work getting ready for 2020, so I hope you enjoy the update and let's make this our year!
P.S. Very sorry about the large amount of time that's passed since we last posted on Bitcointalk. We know that we haven't given our media channels the attention they deserve and hope that you'll notice a big change in the coming weeks!
Matt

Mano Host is now available at https://mano.host/
Mano Host makes deploying and managing a masternode simple. There are instructions when creating a node, and videos posted in our YouTube (see https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP2qPl39L4HHi2wkHmk4twg). Since the community takeover of the Mano project at the start of this year, we have been working hard to deliver on our vision of making masternodes more accessible to users through the offering of simple and intuitive tools.
Host Overview
Mano Host is ready to host your masternodes! The platform will accept Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ether and of course Mano. Pricing is $2.50 per node per month, or $2.00 when paid in Mano. On top of the 20% discount, 20% of any Mano recieved will also be burnt. Note that to accept Mano we are implementing a custom payment processor, which will be ready within two to three weeks, but we didn't want to delay launch any further, so right now you can pay in BTC/ETH/LTC and then in MANO come July.
We have made the decision to allow alternative payments as we feel that this will allow new users an easy onramp to the world of passive income through masternodes, and help grow our community. Announcements for currently hosted coins can be found in the #coin-announcements channel, and many new coins will be added over the coming days and weeks.
Next Steps
We need your feedback regarding Mano Host, and would ask that this be PM'd to myself or added to the #host-feedback channel on our discord, so we can collate all ideas. What do you like? what is missing? This is your chance to help shape the platform.
Finally, I'd like to give our sincere thanks for everyone's trust and patience as we worked to bring out what we feel is the best hosting platform on the market. Taking over Mano has been a lot of hard work and late nights. We have used our own funds and time to build Mano Host, and we hope to show the power of community members working towards a common goal. Now that Mano Host is out, we are looking to you, the Mano community, to help play a large part in Mano going forward. Through working together I believe we are in a unique position to create the best set of products available for masternode investors.

The Mano coin swap has now been completed.
Swap finished about three weeks ago, so how about progresses of developments for new platform?Are there significant achivements reached over last three weeks? I swapped all my coins and really waited for your news on new platform. It should be breaking news after months of waiting and hoping from investors (old MANO coin). Thanks.
Hi Maximumcoin,
You're right. Part of the reason that news has been a little sparse is that we have effectively had to start from scratch. We were hoping to have the platform up by the start of this month, but with the coin swap, building out the new platform and general admin we've needed to do to start afresh (new whitepaper, YouTube videos, updated website, relisting on statistic platforms etc) it's taken some time.
As to where we are at - Ben is going to the DC over the next days to do a couple of items there, then we just need to do some final touches on the platform. Giving a time-frame is always hard considering we were aiming for end March / beginning of April, but in terms of work, as an estimation and taking into account any roadblocks that might arise, I'd expect no more then a couple of weeks, if that. I know it's been a wait, we are as keen to get it out there as anyone, as right now we are paying for a lot of items that aren't being utilised!
And our first coin spotlight will be…. ALQO! For your chance to win an ALQO masternode valued at over $300USD enter at https://giv.gg/alqocoinspotlight. But be quick and be sure to spread the word as the competition won’t be around for long.
At the moment we are only listed on Birake at https://trade.birake.com/market/BIRAKE.MANO_BIRAKE.BTC . There is no option to buy with USDT. We want to list on Blocknet but to do that until our blockchain has a change made to it (BIP65 functionality).

Keep it shortly, on which exchanges I can buy MANO coin, with BTC?
And if there are actively trading exchanges for MANO coin, are there exchanges to buy the coin with USDT?
It is not too surprising to see the MANO team come back with news when the market turns to be good for altcoins so I will pay my attention on MANO, and consider as well as compare risks and financial beneficiaries if I invest in MANO.

Hi Everyone,
It's been some time since an update. We are currently hosting a promotion where you can be in the running to win Mano masternodes and free hosting just by completing a few very simple tasks such as joining our Discord. Please go to the competition page at https://giv.gg/ztFsxY to find out more.
July has been a great month for MANO, with a focus on solidifying our base in preparation for our planned growth. Some items completed were:

July has been a great month for MANO, with a focus on solidifying our base in preparation for our planned growth. Some items completed were:
- MANO DNS seeders have been created to ease the initial blockchain sync for new users.
- Cryptobridge have reduced the confirmations needed for deposits from 100 to 20. This will improve the user experience when trading with our coin.
- We have changed the chat app on our hosting platform so that more agents can be supported.
- A new bot has been added to the Discord and Telegram channels to ensure information is delivered equally between both apps. Posts in #mano-lounge and Telegram will be linked in both directions, allowing new users to participate in the conversation in whichever app they are most comfortable with. #announcements will also be shared to Telegram.
- Our document repository is continuing to grow. A very detailed walkthrough of the MANO budget proposal has been added. A video walkthrough is also being worked on. This is to allow community members to submit their own budget proposals and to be involved more. Being a community run coin, if you have the skills and desire to expand the use cases of MANO, detail it in a proposal so it can be voted on at the next superblock.
So this project actually survived and making a resurgance???
Myself (Elmsy), Dwigt and Towaberg, with a lot of help from Ben Alexander have done a community takeover, and the hosting platform is available at https://mano.host . We have self funded it and have a ways to go, but we are definitely heading in the right direction
We have actually reassessed our monthly pricing options today, and will be offering the majority of nodes at 99c or $1.99, and even less in Mano once the payment processor is complete. Plus we have a lot more in the pipeline, and will be using governance very soon so the community can have their say on how they would like us to proceed on a lot of the bigger decisions. We are aiming for Mano to be a community coin as much as possible.
UPDATE
We have settled on a standard price of $1.99 per node. This ensures our Masternode platform is incredibly well priced, robust and remains a sustainable hosting solution. This also allows MANO to be able to scale out our hosting operations and future endevaours.Payment and Discounts:
We currently accept BTC, LTC and ETH as payment methods. This ensures all users are able to quickly and easily create Masternodes immediately!
PLUS - Users who decide to host MANO Masternodes on the platform will receive discounts for ALL Masternodes they have in their account.
ONE MANO Masternode ensures you receive a 5% discount for all Masternodes in your account (Standard pricing from $1.89)
TWO MANO Masternodes ensures you receive a 10% discount for all Masternodes in your account (Standard pricing from $1.79)
FOUR MANO Masternodes ensures you receive a 20% discount for all Masternodes in your account (Standard pricing from $1.59)
TEN MANO Masternodes ensures you receive a 25% discount for all Masternodes in your account (Standard pricing from $1.49)
Why MANO:
- We are a community project, run by community members for community members!
- We offer the ability to create multiple nodes in one click, making migration from other hosting providers quick and easy!
- We are adding new coins every day - If we currently don't have your coin, just ask!
So this project actually survived and making a resurgance???
Some new coins have been listed on the platform, and many more will be coming.
The coins that have been listed tonight are:
Altbet
Birake
Bitcoin Incognito
Crypto Sports
ESBC
Gin
Livenodes
Quantis Network

Is there a list of stable nodes exist, to add to .conf file? Wallet is not connecting to network, waiting more than 24h 
Hi Shivoreun,
Try these instructions and let me know if you still encounter issues: http://docs.manocoin.net/FAQs/#my-wallet-isnt-syncing-how-do-i-add-nodes

Does the wallet on github not currently work?
What OS are you using? Some people had issues with the Mac wallet, but I believe this was resolved. Can you PM me here or on discord so I can help further?
