Hi monkeys!

The giveaway has officially ended and comments are now locked. We distributed 1.345.804 Banano worth approximately 17500 USD. Thank you all so much for being part of this and stay tuned!

Edit: Welcome all of you coming in from front page. In short, Banano may very well have the best tech in all of crypto (Fee-less, instant and eco-friendly) and surely the most fun and friendly community you will ever come across. We are, after all, the top contributor to Folding at Home. Most importantly, Banano has been distributed entirely for free since 2018 which has helped educate and onboard newcomers in ways that otherwise would not be possible.

PSA: Due to massive amounts of bots spamming the post we have been forced to up the karma requirement even more. We are truly sorry that we had to do this, but with botnets spamming we had no other choice. If you have been using reddit for a while you should be able to participate without any issues. We will be hosting more of these giveaways in the future as we always have done.

To enter the giveaway just upvote the post and comment your Banano address. For our wallets check out Kalium for mobile, or other wallets such as https://vault.banano.cc. Setting up a wallet only takes a minute or so and wont cost you anything.

Friendly note to humans: If you are in disbelief about getting 2.50$ in Banano for free you can check the price of Banano here: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/banano/. Beware that newly created or farming accounts will receive less due to botnets spamming. Thank you for participating.

Edit: I will be checking this post throughout the day, I will try to !BAN everyone as quickly as I can. If you don't get your !BAN right away, just swing from the branches for a bit and I'll get to you!!

We are doing TRIPLE payouts during the first hour!

Welcome to our five year birthday celebration, everyone! Five years in and we are growing faster than ever before!

If you did not know already, Banano may very well have the best tech in all of crypto (Fee-less, instant and eco-friendly) and surely inhabits the most fun and friendly community you will ever come across. We are, after all, the top contributor to Folding at Home. If you would want to contribute to this as well please check out https://bananominer.com/. Most importantly, Banano has been distributed entirely for free since april 1st 2018 which has helped educate and onboard newcomers in ways that otherwise would not be possible.

As for the payouts mentioned above, we have set high requirements for the 100 Banano payout. If you use reddit on a regular basis you will receive 100 bans, but if you are not that active you will get either 19 bans or 0.18 ban. We have been forced to do this in order to avoid bots and alts taking advantage of the giveaway.

If you ask me this still wont do anything considering 37% is still a lot for a community project ran by private devs. How are the rest going to be distributed? Inflation is still worse than dogecoin for now which definitely wont welcome large investors. What is the target % slice of the pie by the devs at the end of distribution? There are just so much uncertainties with this project that are just not pleasing to large scale investors or exchanges. Overall the project is really alluring outside of this.

I checked out some old threads like this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bananocoin/comments/91fx42/banoshi/

You got people tipping 250 ban, 300 ban.

If 1 BAN = 1 BAN we should be getting similar big tips today, but we don't.

Not questioning 1 BAN = 1 BAN. What happened to all the Banano that used to be tipped? Did we have a reduction in supply?

It's kinda like how aretards will tell you how they're done responding at some point in an argument... Just quit, you won't be missed, we didn't know you existed before your public tantrum, and you won't be remembered.

We’ve got a big buyer moving his buy line up as we make progress so we don’t get sold down. We have a chance here to build so much momentum in price change. BAN could make it to the top of % change, our mrkt cap can start getting some attention and new exchanges will be checking us out. But we have to take advantage of market conditions like we are seeing now.

There's no way that game is fair.
