NANO is getting traction as payment method in Venezuela. For short-term I would definitely invest but not long-term. I did express my concerns here.

waiting for new update this project. specialy about the whitepaper of this project. every one must know about project purpose.




If you guys want to get to the market faster get in touch with me.. Im very interested in DAG and Blockchain interoperability. Im working a on project for the secure transfer/storage of 3d printing files. We are creating a supercomputing raspberry pi hardware network to store files and a P2P B2B File sharing website similar to Ether Delta Architecture.
Im applying for a subisdy grant at Brightlands Blockchain & AI Accelerator in Netherlands where I hold a corporation to execute these tasks. If you want to change the world get in touch because its changing fast. Meta Hash would be a competitor to us as they use DAG and a side blockchain together.

I'm challenging you, if your project is real, forget the donations, make a volunteer system that will reward anyone who cooperates with the project
5% devs
10% bounty for volunteer contributors, web designer, translator, programmer etc
85% faucet
You do not need donations to make this project a reality

This makes a lot of sense - although most ICOs are greedy tbh

ok if they accept This model Ill assume its not a scam.

If they keep taking donations .. it will be like all the others ..


They did not reply to this proposal so far. That doesn't look good. I guess if they won't go this way there can be little doubts on which are their real priorities...

Dev, are you going to stay anonymous? Sounds like a big task with what you're doing with Dark Nano. I need more info before I donate.  Grin

Hey, we would like to assure you that the work is turning out magnificent. We are considering in perform a few webinar with the future participants of the test net. However, we will officially reveal ourselves after the alpha phase starts, so we will start the work on publicity.

Hi devs, what is the update with this, are you going to do an airdrop to $NANO holders? I like all these $NANO hybrid projects, it just gives more validity to Nano's tech.

We decided we will host faucets, and perform airdrops to those who support us during the test net ( soon), and with other future activities. Thank you for the support 😊

The project is kind of interesting, but what is the site graphics? are you planning a rebranding? I wait for detailed information. white paper, the date of sale of the tokens

We will launch whitepaper's first version during this month, with technical and general information. You will also be able to reserve a few DarkNano by helping our team (translations, website, testnet), or by sending us a donation to one of the addresses in our first post.

If you guys wanna clear up more detailed doubts, feel free to PM us =D

Can you please explain how Zksnark will work with the block lattice prococol? You need to know the representative's balance in case of an attack but if you obfuscate this with zero knowledge proof there wont be a way to know. It just doesn't make sense to me and that's why I think this is scam unless you can have technical explications about your implementation of Zksnark on NANO.

In simple words, each wallet has 2 blockchains. The obfuscated one, receives information from main chain (its composition is similar to block-lattice), and interact with other nodes, with encrypted informations (funds and blocks). zk-SNARKs always operates when connecting information between these two, this way, ensuring block sender's address cannot be identified when transfered to final destination. With our best, we've got a 2 second time for each protocol's realization, and now our focus is to work in a stress test (to check if it could turn expensive for a full node, and whether we would need to add low fees or not).

Sonn we will launch a first draft of whitepaper, and solve deeper doubts.


Best regards, DarkNano team =D

We also organized this little outline, representing the functionality of DarkNano’s net and how transactions are obfuscated. Basically, each node possesses a z representative, that is generated randomly in an unique side chain of each wallet (it is impossible to identify the z address of each regular address). The node and the znode communicate amongst themselves when identifying a transaction, and that information is transmitted to all of the side chain taking the form of instantaneous blocks, with the realization of the PoW only in between the swap from the zaddress to main address and transmitting between zaddresses without PoW, to enter a consensus within the entire side chain. To simplify the functionality, in a transaction AB:



1-Address A performs a small PoW, transmits the information to zA, performing the zero-knowledge proof
2-Node Pool is instantaneously communicated, and interacts with its respectives zNodes to vote in side chain  on 3
4-With 50%+1 of the votes in side chain, the transaction occurs between zA and zB
5-Reverse process of 1, and after confirmed, B performs a small PoW

*A and B may take a full node as representatives, and perform same process demonstrated, like it works with Nano. *The side chain is 100% obfuscated, and work only with zero knowledge connections with the full nodes
 **The transactions may stay as pending in the side chain, and transmitted to the main address when online, because both chains are at all times operating in sintony
 ***The estimated time of transactions completed from blocks is that of at most 4 seconds, and it is limited by the hardware available in the Nodes ( the space taken ends up being bigger, due to double interaction)
****The 4 seconds time is due to double zero knowledge proof

Hello everyone! Firstly, we would like to apologize for the time without any news whatsoever, which actually generated some  FUD. We were directing all our attention to the code, and are happy to tell you that we already managed to start the first wallet tests (windows) with transactions utilizing the protocol zk-SNARKs, which were more successful than expected.



 This print is from one of the most recent test made, soon we will be able to bring you more news, including a summary version of the whitepaper ( which is being written as you read this ). Pay close attention to the post, we will be updating everyone with amazing news very soon. We also made a few modifications to the distribution, allocating a small % to the future bug bounty, giving you incentive to look for glitches in the obfuscation protocol and in the security area( we assure you that the works is being well done, we are proud of it ourselves)
 We would also like to clarify, in regards to the FUD, in relation to the donations. We are working 24/7 in DarkNano, because we believe it is a project that will change the way cryptocurrency is seen in the world market, however, like everyone, we do have your bills to pay ,and we would also like to extend our gratitudes to those whore helping and supporting us from the beginning.


Thank you! Sincerely, the DarkNano team

There is no update on this project and i think that if this will not continue to be released. But i just feel curious about what makes dark nano was different with nanotech itself.  But validity for what?
You can try to see the developer's account activity and i guess we will get your answer.

Fast, fee-less, scalable and privacy. All in one cryptocurrency

Principles:
-Dark Nano is a DAG cryptocurrency, which uses as its basis the same elements as Nano (dPoS), bringing primordial elements for a successful microtransactions coin. We are working hard on testing the main protocols of Raiblocks/Nano with some changes in the block-lattice operation, while also implementing a privacy protocol.
- We aim to convey a solid project, which delivers a strong and secure cryptocurrency to users while maintaining privacy and instant transactions.


How far we’ve come:
-Preliminary tests have already been made with zk-SNARKs that resulted in limited success. However, the dPoS verification speed is significantly slowing down, resulting in a lower than expected Tx/s. On the other hand, we’ve had success restructuring the code with the final goal of having a 2 second time transaction, which is unfortunately bringing difficulties with the PoW step.
Even Though our main focus has been with zk-SNARKs, and our priority is to finish testing all outcomes with our current script, we are still open minded and have not discarded the possibility of testing alternative methods to implement privacy.

About us:

-Our team at the moment consists of 2 core developers, and we are in currently negotiating with a web designer. Me, Louis, and Joshua, will be constantly updating you with our progress, the possible dates for publishing wallets, the coding process, and everything else related to DarkNano.
We have followed Collin's Raiblocks project since it's beginning, and have decided to start slowly building our cryptocurrency last year. Watching Raiblocks/Nano enormous growth, we decided it was time we started working on it full time, make it happen as soon and as effectively as possible and change people's life. At this early stage, we have decided to stay in anonymity until we deliver a finished code as well as the wallets. This way we can also start building up a strong marketing trajectory and move forward to exchange listings.

How will it work:

We also organized this little outline, representing the functionality of DarkNano’s net and how transactions are obfuscated. Basically, each node possesses a z representative, that is generated randomly in an unique side chain of each wallet (it is impossible to identify the z address of each regular address). The node and the znode communicate amongst themselves when identifying a transaction, and that information is transmitted to all of the side chain taking the form of instantaneous blocks, with the realization of the PoW only in between the swap from the zaddress to main address and transmitting between zaddresses without PoW, to enter a consensus within the entire side chain.

 ***The estimated time of transactions completed from blocks is that of at most 4 seconds, and it is limited by the hardware available in the Nodes ( the space taken ends up being bigger, due to double interaction)
****The 4 seconds time is due to double zero knowledge proof






Roadmap:












Distribution:
It's not our main priority right now, but we are planning on making faucets (like Raiblocks), or maybe airdrops to Nano holders. We will also give DarkNano coins for early donators, and distribute for those who participate actively in testnet.

The distribution method taken will be the one we find fairer
(thoughts and ideas in the comments are appreciated)
Our current percentages are:
-3.5% as a dev fund
-2.5% for bug bounty
-15% to early donators
-79.5% for public distribution
max supply is going to be 100m DarkNano (XDK)
(the left coins will be burned and reduce the max supply)





Alpha version wallet:




*We will randomly choose donators to participate in our testnet



Whitepaper: (soon)

Github DarkNano: (soon)

Github Windows Wallet: (soon)
