Internet of Coins Update #18 - Alpha wallet now live on TOR!
Dear cryptocurrency enthusiast,
We thank you for your interest in our project, and all who already participated in our crowdfund. You are receiving this e-mail because you have either signed up for the Internet of Coins e-mail updates, participated in the crowdfund or have previously been in touch with one of our team members.
444K HYBRIDs registered
This week, we were happy to see the fundraiser counter jump to lucky number 444,000 HYBRIDs registered. Most of the donations have been sent in Ethereum and Bitcoin, but we see the NEM, WAVES, NXT, Counterparty and Bitshares community participating as well. As we are entering the last week of the crowdfunding campaign, we thank all who already decided to be part of our journey.
Just seven more days to go
The fundraising period will close on the 21st of june, the beginning of summer. Only seven more days to register for HYBRID initial tokens and get your donation settled. After that, development will start according to our roadmap (see our terms page for more details). We will keep you informed about procedures and the development of our infrastructure through our newsletters and on twitter.
First transaction sent using IoC alpha wallet
As we mentioned in a previous newsletter, we have done our utmost to get a 'live' version of our wallet out there for testing by you, our supporters. We are proud to announce that today at 11:40 the first transfer of value from an IoC wallet to an IoC wallet was made, an amount of 1 LSK. The public alpha is available for testing at http://kth3qittpclsdrk6.onion so you will need to use TOR to access it. It supports just Bitcoin and Lisk for now, so we can test the basic functionality of the transaction mechanisms. Please do not store large amounts of value on this wallet yet, it is to be considered experimental until after more extensive testing and there may be bugs. This is a milestone for Internet of Coins and 'proof of work', to release public alpha software ahead of time, before the fundraiser is even over!
Celebrate with us!
To celebrate the release of the alpha wallet and give a last boost to our fundraiser, we ask for your help. You can show your support for our project by tweeting or posting the following message on your twitter or facebook account:
IoC launches #alpha #wallet! Join the storm! #internetofcoins https://coinstorm.net
The case of the missing PIN
We understand from people with Gmail accounts that our PIN emails, and in some cases our confirmation emails, are not arriving at Gmail customers. This is because Gmail uses excessively strict greylist filtering. In some cases, it may help to send a little test email to [email protected] and keep this email in your outbox, before you start the donation procedure. Then Gmail sees the address as 'whitelisted' because you have corresponded with it before. However, if you do not receive a PIN email, even after checking your spam box, please use 77777 as your emergency PIN in combination with Gmail addresses only. These donations will then receive extra inspection and verification.
In that case, be absolutely sure to paste the correct transaction ID, which is a 64 character long hexadecimal string that identifies your transaction. You can find your 'TXID' by viewing the transactions coming in to the blockchain address that you are donating to, which are listed on our terms page using a block explorer. For Bitcoin donations, for example, you can use: https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/address/14aV8dULoL67i6xQncfmFsbFaEtpRKskC2/transactions and for Ethereum donations: https://etherchain.org/account/0x197a920123dda17040a065457ef0c01b28a54045#txreceived
In case of not receiving a confirmation email, we also recommend to make screenshots of your transaction, in case these may be needed in later correspondence. You can always contact us about your donation in case of problems. Please understand that we cannot give you a simple refund of any donation, since only the overseeing foundation can decide on individual cases, when serious error is involved.
The release of the tokens
There have been questions regarding where the HYBRID tokens are 'visible' and how donators can know where their tokens are stored. We build on earlier achievements, and hence the infrastructure to carry our tokens will be developed using the (crypto)currency that our supporters donate. At the present moment, this means your registration information is your ticket for our Fundraiser. Make sure to keep a copy of your PIN, the TXID of your donation, screenshots of transactions and confirmation, or the confirmation email. When the network infrastructure is functional, each donator will be able to create their own account on the newly developed system. This account will receive the amount of HYBRID tokens reserved according to the USD value of the donation at the time of participating. In the course of development, the network will be connected to different coins and token systems, as well as those included in the fundraiser.
Transparency of our fundraiser
You can check any of the blockchains listed on our terms page, to verify that the donated cryptocurrency will only be spent on project development, starting after the fundraiser period. We are proud to be part of an alliance with the Commons Conservancy under the reputable NLnet foundation, an official charity under Dutch rule of law, which guarantees that we cannot use these funds except for the purpose of developing the Internet of Coins.
HYBRID pricing schedule
The next price per unit increase for HYBRID is scheduled to happen on the 18th June. So now the PPU value is 1.925 USD, and after that date it will increase to 2 USD and will remain there until issued. Check our terms page for the authoritative schedule.

NEW UPDATE
Internet of Coins Update #17 - a 404 is cause for celebration!
Dear cryptocurrency enthusiast,
We thank you for your interest in our project, and all who already participated in our crowdfund. You are receiving this e-mail because you have either signed up for the Internet of Coins e-mail updates, participated in the crowdfund or have previously been in touch with one of our team members.
404K HYBRIDs registered
At the Internet of Coins Dutch headquarters we were happy to see the fundraiser counter jump to 404,000 HYBRIDs registered yesterday. Most of the donations have been sent in Ethereum and Bitcoin, but we see the NEM, WAVES, NXT, Counterparty and Bitshares community participating as well. As we are entering the last two weeks of the crowdfunding campaign, we thank all who already decided to be part of our journey.
ICO Alert report
Thanks to the hard work of key members in our team, we are have received a positive review from ICO Alert. From the report (p.4): "[...] the scalability and broad scope of vision to link stores of value even beyond mere cryptocurrency pairs makes Internet of Coins a very exciting project." We are happy they share our vision and congratulate our team members for their great work in the further accreditation of the project.

Internet of Coins Update #16 - Hardware Nodes, Virtual Machines and DIY, oh my!
Dear cryptocurrency enthusiast,
We thank you for your interest in our project, and all who already participated in our crowdfund. You are receiving this e-mail because you have either signed up for the Internet of Coins e-mail updates, participated in the crowdfund or have previously been in touch with one of our team members.
Developing our Hardware Node
The first prototype boards for the development of an open source Internet of Coins hardware node have finally landed on our development workbench. They feature a cool 2GB of RAM and quad-core ARM processor. Additionally, they will be outfitted with an embedded, custom-built and secure operating system, based on best-of-breed software from the Armbian project and using Debian GNU/Linux as a base. In the first instance, our Early Birds will be entitled to take part in the public beta launch for our node ecosystem. Stay tuned for more information on this amazing development in upcoming newsletters.
Virtual Machines and DIY
For those that are not so lucky to take part in our hardware node pioneer project, we will make Virtual Machine images available that provide a standardised environment from which to run a node on any computer that supports VirtualBox (an open source product made available by Oracle, originally created by Sun Microsystems). Of course, hardcore experts will be able to DIY (Do It Yourself) by cloning our node software directly from github, where the alpha wallet code will be made available around the end of the fundraising period and regularly updated as our codebase grows and matures. But for all those users looking for something more accessible, the Virtual Machine images will help to bridge the divide and get up and running with Internet of Coins in a hands-on approach.
The case of the missing PIN
We understand from people with Gmail accounts that our PIN emails, and in some cases our confirmation emails, are not arriving at Gmail customers. This is because Gmail uses excessively strict greylist filtering.

Dear cryptocurrency enthusiast,
We thank you for your interest in our project, and all who already participated in our crowdfund. You are receiving this e-mail because you have either signed up for the Internet of Coins e-mail updates, participated in the crowdfund or have previously been in touch with one of our team members.
Developing our Hardware Node
The first prototype boards for the development of an open source Internet of Coins hardware node have finally landed on our development workbench. They feature a cool 2GB of RAM and quad-core ARM processor. Additionally, they will be outfitted with an embedded, custom-built and secure operating system, based on best-of-breed software from the Armbian project and using Debian GNU/Linux as a base. In the first instance, our Early Birds will be entitled to take part in the public beta launch for our node ecosystem. Stay tuned for more information on this amazing development in upcoming newsletters.
Virtual Machines and DIY
For those that are not so lucky to take part in our hardware node pioneer project, we will make Virtual Machine images available that provide a standardised environment from which to run a node on any computer that supports VirtualBox (an open source product made available by Oracle, originally created by Sun Microsystems). Of course, hardcore experts will be able to DIY (Do It Yourself) by cloning our node software directly from github, where the alpha wallet code will be made available around the end of the fundraising period and regularly updated as our codebase grows and matures. But for all those users looking for something more accessible, the Virtual Machine images will help to bridge the divide and get up and running with Internet of Coins in a hands-on approach.
The case of the missing PIN
We understand from people with Gmail accounts that our PIN emails, and in some cases our confirmation emails, are not arriving at Gmail customers. This is because Gmail uses excessively strict greylist filtering. In some cases, it may help to send a little test email to [email protected] and keep this email in your outbox, before you start the donation procedure. Then Gmail sees the address as 'whitelisted' because you have corresponded with it before. However, if you do not receive a PIN email, even after checking your spam box, please use 77777 as your emergency PIN in combination with Gmail addresses only. These donations will then receive extra inspection and verification.
In that case, be absolutely sure to paste the correct transaction ID, which is a 64 character long hexadecimal string that identifies your transaction. You can find your 'TXID' by viewing the transactions coming in to the blockchain address that you are donating to, which are listed on our terms page using a block explorer. For Bitcoin donations, for example, you can use: https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/address/14aV8dULoL67i6xQncfmFsbFaEtpRKskC2/transactions and for Ethereum donations: https://etherchain.org/account/0x197a920123dda17040a065457ef0c01b28a54045#txreceived
In case of not receiving a confirmation email, we also recommend to make screenshots of your transaction, in case these may be needed in later correspondence. You can always contact us about your donation in case of problems. Please understand that we cannot give you a simple refund of any donation, since only the overseeing foundation can decide on individual cases, when serious error is involved.
The release of the tokens
There have been questions regarding where the HYBRID tokens are 'visible' and how donators can know where their tokens are stored. We build on earlier achievements, and hence the infrastructure to carry our tokens will be developed using the (crypto)currency that our supporters donate. At the present moment, this means your registration information is your ticket for our Fundraiser. Make sure to keep a copy of your PIN, the TXID of your donation, screenshots of transactions and confirmation, or the confirmation email. When the network infrastructure is functional, each donator will be able to create their own account on the newly developed system. This account will receive the amount of HYBRID tokens reserved according to the USD value of the donation at the time of participating. In the course of development, the network will be connected to different coins and token systems, as well as those included in the fundraiser.
Transparency of our fundraiser
You can check any of the blockchains listed on our terms page, to verify that the donated cryptocurrency will only be spent on project development, starting after the fundraiser period. We are proud to be part of an alliance with the Commons Conservancy under the reputable NLnet foundation, an official charity under Dutch rule of law, which guarantees that we cannot use these funds except for the purpose of developing the Internet of Coins.
