BANANO Monthly Update #31 (November 2020)

By banano | Banano | 11 Nov 2020


BANANO is around since more than two years and growing and going quite well during this crazy year so far. BANANO is 100% freely distributed (don’t worry about gas fees or transaction fees ever again!). Now it’s November already, and more than time for another ripe Monthly Update from the BANANO ecosystem! The idea of those monthly updates is to keep our community informed, provide a good starting point for new people looking at the project, and to be transparent about BANANO’s ongoing distribution activities and community growth.

This BANANO Monthly Update November 2020 summarizes all important happenings in the BANANO ecosphere in October 2020, which already was the 31st month since the BANANO main-net launch.

Halloween at BANANO: One Big Party!

The days before Halloween are traditionally even more fun, more active, and more rich in events! We were so busy with celebrating and having fun events that we didn’t even announce several of them outside of our de-facto headquarters, the BANANO Discord server. We had extensive #trickortreat sessions with lots of free BANANO for participants, YUGE BANANO rains, Emoji and Halloween monKey/cryptomonKey design contests, a great Karaoke session, and even a Creepy Story contest. We hope you didn’t miss the fun!

BANANO x Vite Labs Airdrop Announcement

Recently, BANANO engaged in an official partnership with Vite Labs, another DAG-based crypto project. Connecting communities and blockchains is what the cryptocurrency world should aim for, and we believe this partnership is a great way to increase visibility for both cryptocurrency projects to connect, learn from each other and benefit from each other’s communities, connections and experience. Now, we have announced two BANANO airdrops to the VITE community!

What the Fork is BANANO?

For those of you who don’t know BANANO yet: BANANO is a cryptocurrency (like Bitcoin or Ethereum, just a much newer generation). BANANO was forked from the cryptocurrency Nano in April 2018 and thus is powered by DAG technology — here to distrupt the meme economy. Yes, BANANO has memes! And also feeless and near-instant transactions, a highly active community, and active technical development! The BANANO community doesn’t take themselves too seriously, but we’re here for the long run and we enjoy what we do.

On top of this, BANANO is super easy to use. Just try our slick mobile wallet called Kalium and get your first free $BANANO from one of our faucets within minutes! Also, BANANO has a free ongoing distribution through innovative faucet games. You can find more details on our official website: banano.cc, and you’ll find help getting started at banano.how.

BANANO is already traded on several exchanges. You’ll find current information collated at Coingecko (and Coinmarketcap) and an overview about all current exchanges here.

BANANO Supply

Updated data from November 1st, 2020:
Circulating Supply: 1,128,472,353
Burned Total: 504,333,044
Total Supply: 2,898,490,625
You can always check current supply and burn details through our supply API.

BANANO Faucet and Distribution Overview

Aside lots of events and intermittent faucet runs as listed above, we still have several faucets running permanently since quite a while, quick overview here:

MonkeyTalks
An instant & self-sustaining faucet, combined with messaging

BananoMiner
Earn BANANO by contributing CPU/GPU power to medical research via Folding@Home

BANANO Powerplant
Browser-based altcoin mining that pays rewards in BANANO

Banano BoomPow
Provide proof-of-work for Nano and Banano services, get BANANO reward

BananoJobs
Complete bounties or microtasks called ‘BananoJobs’ — get paid in BANANO

BANANO’s highly popular faucet game ‘Black Monkey’ is normally running irregularly in focused 24 hour events! At the moment, our core dev running this faucet got is not available that much due to other priorities and Coronavirus lockdown with bad internet, but the next round will start eventually— stay tuned! Until then, we’re currently refining another faucet: The BANANO Story2Image faucet! And who knows, maybe there’ll be a new BANANO Runner in the not too distant future.

New faucets and modifications will follow over time, and adjustments might always be made to ensure that BANANO’s free distribution stays fair, and also doesn’t make our community members too dependent on BANANO earnings.

Within October 2020, we’ve freely distributed a total of ~13 Million BANANO (September: 16M; August: 12M). Just to name the major events, this has happened through faucet payouts (Bananominer, Powerplant, Monkeytalks, BoomPow, Story2Image faucet), BananoJobs, VITE airdrop, tipping allowances and celery (rewards) to all core team members, major contributors and moderators.

BANANO Tipbots as we use them at Discord, Reddit, Telegram and Twitter are instrumental for showing newly joining members how easy-to-use and fast BANANO truly is, and to actually have everyone use BANANO for what it’s made for — tipping others!

Example Twitter/Telegram Tipbot: In total, since the Tipbot was started in Mid April 2019 until November 1, 2020, more than 43 Million BANANO were tipped in more than 408,000 transactions, only at Twitter and Telegram!
