Will the Opair wallet be a software? or a website? the picture you posted on the thread looks much more like a modern website.

YIz, will be a software. The picture is just a prototype.

One questions: Can you give us more details on how and where will the registration for betas?

I think that up to 10% via PoW be logical. No more, please.

If 70% goes to ICO and 30% to PoW where do the bounties come from?

As we said, in the distribution 0% will go for us as background/premine/developer funds/bounty funds, we believe it would be unfair. All payments will be supported by us from what we gather at ICO.

Hmmm, I'm not too sure why so many people have a problem with devs holding a share of their coin. I agree that it's hard to determine the right amount, but in the end, it gives the devs an incentive to keep working on their coin.

Here is an idea I had regarding dev shares:
There is one ICO in the beginning. The devs keep a relatively big share of the coins, but they are locked by a contract and are sold in not one big, but in multiple following COs*. When this COs will happen is determined before the first ICO, ideally, the coins are either generated at fixed block heights or are locked by smart contracts and released at fixed block heights.

My reasoning behind this is as follows:
1.: It will keep the devs invested, since successful development would increase the amounts collected in the following COs.
2.: Since the releases are fixed, the market can adjust.
(I had additional points, but I'm too tired to articulate them…)

Obviously, the amounts and points in time when those releases are happening need to be determined carefully.

Thoughts?

*Since ICO means "Initial Coin Offering", the others are just "Coin Offernings" Smiley


I think I'm with the dev at this point. It is a good decision to decide to distribute 100% of the coin, not holding anything for them. As said, they will buy stakes but when the ICO has ended. On the other hand, you and I know that is probably a big big ICO, which do not need to earn extra money as premine.

I would add that if the bounties are free (premine), only serve to be dumped into the market as soon as the coin hits the exchanges. Thus, if the devs have to buy coins for bounties in the market, at least it serves to counteract the dump of the bounties (we all know that what is obtained in signature campaigns, users are going to sell as soon as they can)

I find a question, if 100% distributed, where does the bounty coin from? Devs buy coins or they get the coins by mining??    Huh

They don't reserve one coin which is good, look DAO, but DAO had bad future, this coin will have good future.

As I have said several times, we will buy XPO for bounties.

Will this Opaircoin on full feature released once the ICO has been completed? If not how soon will all its features will be fully implemented? Do you have any working roadmap as well?
Has it done some all kind of testing too? Thanks

Hi, I can not give you a date when it will be ready all our features. As we said, the first public beta will be available two weeks after the ICO and the first stable version two months later.
About our important features that I guess is what interests you, both the implementation of smart contracts and decentralized debit cards will be present from the first beta, which anyone can test them. Obviously from day 1 will not be complete and stable, so it is a beta. The decentralized debit cards are likely to be ready for the first stable version of the platform, but not the implementation of smart contracts as it involves a higher amount of working time, knowledge and development, given the language we are using.

Very interesting project, some questions before I invest:

1) is there a minimum amount of funds you need to go on and will you provide refunds if you don't catch the target
2) have you considered how much time will it take to make a smart contract platform in a functional language? Ethereum's language is much simpler than a functional one and only the task of making a new language with 2-3 people is daunting.
3) what is the main language that this coin will be developed? c++? the gui seems same as all other wallets, it's just a prototype right?

best of luck

btw my 2 cents:
this project is much more interesting than waves BS that was a project without any real innovation, im just worried that too much is promised.

Hi,

1) to be honest we do not have a specified amount but we believe that, at least, 700 BTC would need to put together. From then on, all collected serve to optimize, accelerate, hire more people, marketing, legal costs, go to more events and create a division that works as an incubator  (as we said in our thread: "When we have enough founds, we would like to use some of them to create a division that will work as an incubator to relevant projects (can be IoT related works, DAO, Dapps, frameworks and so on) in the ecosystem we aim to create in Opair.")

2) as I said above, it will be one of our priority but we take a lot of work. Obviously if we develop it with only two people would take longer than planned. There are currently 3 people on our team who can help in this regard but with the ICO funds we will expand our team.

3) for the development of Opair Core, we will use the languages we know best and we consider appropriate for that function, which are C ++, Python and C# and, of course, OCaml for the implementation of the smart contracts. We rule out the use of Java, by fluency and security problems that its use entails.

I can answer your 3rd question, it is written in OCaml, it is introduced on OP.

Ttook, we do not need the premine incentive. Obviously we will have a % of the project, but do not get by premine/bounty dev or buying at the stage of ICO (because it would be fraud). When the ICO ends, we will invest a percentage of what we got in the ICO and our own money to buy our stakes.

I am assuming this coin has undergone mining, when you be able to provide a working block explorer?

Opair will obviously be premine for distribution but will be later, when the distribution process begins.




What I wrote was just an idea. It's very possible that it's flawed.

I should clarify, that I don't suspect you guys of scamming. But others might. My suggestions were mostly about sending those people a message. Additionally, if all goes well, it would be a way to get more money, just over a longer timespan.

How much are you people looking to raise ?

Good question, PR could u tell us how many btcs is your target? If the target is not met, will the project launch?

Steveds & Altcoinrich, to be honest we do not have a specified amount but we believe that, at least, 700 BTC would need to put together. From then on, all collected serve to optimize, accelerate, hire more people, marketing, legal costs, go to more events and create a division that works as an incubator  (as we said in our thread: "When we have enough founds, we would like to use some of them to create a division that will work as an incubator to relevant projects (can be IoT related works, DAO, Dapps, frameworks and so on) in the ecosystem we aim to create in Opair.")

It looks like an interesting project you have here. What experience do you have in coding smart contracts?

Both Frank and Hao, have not worked in previous projects that include the application of smart contracts but both have the necessary knowledge (they have knowledge of functional programming and OCaml as well) and years of experience in leading companies. Even Hao, is currently working as a blockchain developer at IBM.

what is the algo used? you have not specified it in the op

Amph, the PoW phase was stipulated to occupy 30% of the distribution during the period of 1 year but many people have complained that 30% via PoW may be manipulated by whales so I will talk with Frank and Hao to reach a consensus on the new distribution. I imagine that we will modify the percentages, maybe 90-10 or 85-15 (instead of 70-30), and perhaps its duration. Our idea is to settle the matter on the weekend, so before the ICO the rules will be clear and defined for all. About the algo, we think on X13 (or a modification of it) as is known and stable for everyone, because we do not want to revolutionize this aspect, but serves us as a safe & fast distribution method. During the weekend, we will update this with the final information about the PoW distribution.

Good info, HAO is a Chinese, i trust him, because i am a Chinese too.

The lower POW rate is better, I prefer 0.  10% is also acceptable to me.

Goodbye, Z.
How many slot avaiable of Signature Campaign? Where we check spreadsheet list?
We're running a reward pool based signature campaign, which means there's no upper limit to the participants.
