Criptoreal’s Third Monthly Update !

Criptoreal’s Third Monthly Update !

This post is to share a part of the official announcement of the Criptoreal Team talkin about the Third Month update (April 2018).
Official post : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2909292.msg36154011#msg36154011

This is what we’ve accomplished in the last 30 days:

• Official Android Wallet and Web Wallet

As you may already know, CRS is one of the very few masternode cryptocurrencies to have ported Copay,
the most secure Bitcoin light wallet, to its core.

Since CRS' main goal is to help retailers and consumers deal with crypto in Brazil and LATAM,
we couldn’t take ages to release a mobile wallet, so we’re very happy to tell you that the Official Android wallet,
called Cripag, is already available in Google Play for all to download:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bitpay.Cripag

Because of the fragmentation of the Android user base and some security features inherent to Android OS updates,
we had to limit compatibility to Android 6.0 (codename Marshmallow) and up, for users with previous Android versions
we have released the web version of Cripag here, this enables everyone to use CRS on the go.

• CRS Paper Wallet

Inaccurate are those who think that Paper Wallets are exclusive for storing highly valuable cryptos,
even though CRS is a small cap, brand new cryptocurrency, masternode owners appreciate having a
physical backup for their payee address and private key.

Also, our Paper Wallet will be used in the future for distributing CRS on events, a kind of offline airdropping, if you will.

I remember a certain event here in Brazil, years ago, where participants were given a BTC paper wallet with
only 1 BTC on it, lots of them threw them away because BTC was very cheap at that time, I bet they are regretting that now Wink

• Shared Masternode Automatic Platform - SMAP

First, we’d like to credit whoever created the "SMAP" name on our Discord, although I’m sure it was created
out of laziness save time, we loved it and will use it from now on.

Since the launching of CRS, we had one main concern, to protect our community.

People who trust our project are the most important people in the world for us and we didn’t want to risk their money
on third party shared masternode services, so we started our own shared masternode service for CRS.

What we never imagined was the success this would be, today we manage more than 30 masternodes for our community,
in fact, some people prefer to have their Masternodes managed by us instead of going through the process of renting a VPS and taking care of it.

The problem is that this is A LOT of work; for you to have an idea, currently there are about 180 share owners with over 300 shares overall…
This is impossible to manage with a simple google form.

• Easy Masternode Setup

Masternodes are one of the best addition to cryptocurrencies since they were invented, the enable instant and private transactions,
fast connection among nodes and speed of blockchain distribution.

Their service is invaluable to a currency as CRS that aims to be usable everyday and not Just Another Masternode (JAM) coin.

Side note: The term JAM was coined by Allen Hena on the Stake and Nodes website,
which provides invaluable masternode information for the newbie and professional alike,
his Education articles are a must read, click here, if you want to learn everything about MNs.

The problem is that Masternodes are still new and some people are scared to setup their own because it gets a little bit technical on a Linux VPS,
to solve this we have created an automatic script that sets up a CRS Masternode in under 30 second without Linux knowledge.

Feedback from the community has been great and crypto beginners from Hong Kong, Russia and the US have been able to get their CRS MNs
up and running by simply pasting this code to their VPSs:

Code:
wget -qO mn crs.one/mn.sh && sudo bash mn

• Bitconf - The biggest Bitcoin Conference in Brazil so far.

We announced our sponsorship of Bitconf on our very first monthly update here, and it’s finally happening,
Bitconf will take place on the WTC Sheraton Convention Center in São Paulo on May 5 - 6
and they are expecting over one thousand people to visit the conference.

• Presenting CRS Masternodes and Decentralized Governance to the World

If the benefits of masternodes and decentralized governance are still hard to understand on the developed world,
they are even more difficult to understand here in Brazil, where almost no information about them is available.

To help Bitconf attendants understand those benefits, we asked Rodrigo Digital to be our spokesperson on the event,
our 60 minute prime time presentation will be about such benefits and how they will help the Brazilian society on a regional Crypto as CRS.

• CREX24 - New Exchange - BTC/CRS Pair

As most of you already know, we asked to be delisted from SouthXchange on the beginning of April,
the reasons behind our request are publicly available on our Discord announcement channel and on our previous monthly updates.

Since then, we’ve been listed on Crex24 which is another small cap exchange, but we are very happy with their service.

Their support reps are on our Discord, withdrawals and deposits are very fast and
they have great charts for the technically inclined trader out there.

• FXCBIT - New Exchange - BRL/CRS Pair

This is another very important roadmap item that has been advanced,
what use would CRS have on retail if there is no fiat pair? NONE.

Imagine having to buy BTC to then get CRS in order to pay something with it, sorry, that is not a real world solution.

By listing on the respectable Brazilian exchange FXCBIT, Brazilians can now buy CRS with BRL Fiat,
I repeat this is real BRL fiat, not a token like USDT.

The importance of having a fiat pair, can not be understated for CRS, as this it's the pillar of our retail solutions,
where regular people will be able to accept CRS on their businesses without worrying about the volatility of decentralized crypto currencies.

• Almost 20,000 USD (Twenty Thousand US Dollars) Bounty Campaign (500k CRS)

Please, read this subtitle again, no it's not a joke, we are giving away half a million CRS on bounties.

Our Bounty Campaign managed by Legendary Seccour has been a huge success and it almost over, but there is still time for you to get a piece of the pie.

---

And for April, that’s all folks

Here’s a quick overview of what we’ll be doing in the next 30 days:

• New Website

We’re launching a new website, with blog and e-commerce store, we have no idea what to sell there,
but it will be the first test of our e-commerce plugin that accepts only CRS as payment without a third party gateway. Grin

• Partnerships

As we mentioned a few weeks back on discord and this thread, we have secured a partnership with a UK
based betting platform that wants to accept CRS as payments for Brazilian players.

They are a competitor of BET365 and SportingBet, willing to spend millions in advertising, so it’s going to be huge for CRS,
and we are working really hard to finish the implementation of CRS into their payment methods.

• Local Media Exposure.

We have recently secured a media contract with one of the biggest crypto portals in brazil,
called Criptomoedas Fácil and our Media will start to display there next week.

• Run For CRS - Android Game

Who doesn’t love a good game?
What about a game that pays you real money?

This is our next gift to the CRS community, The Run For CRS (Run4CRS) game will be available
on the Google Play Store later this month and players will be able to earn CRS.
