The Dublin Tech Summit, which took place on April 18 and 19, was the culmination of the launch of the Mingo messaging app for its ICO . Mingo is the first major cryptocurrency project fully developed in Ireland. To spice up even more, the project team announced a 20% bonus for any purchase of the Mingo Utility Token (MGT) by May 1, 2018. The platform consists of a messaging application built to collect messages from various applications, with plans to create a plugin economy that will include, among others, the MingoPlay plugin.
MingoChat is a free instant messaging aggregation application that supports Facebook, Twitter, Steam, Discord, Slack, Skype and IRC Cloud. The application is designed to reduce the number of missed messages and response times, to eliminate redundant messages and eliminate the need to switch between applications by streamlining all conversations between platforms in a single stream of conversation . Mingo will automatically sync your contacts across apps and organize message feeds accordingly, making Mingo the only app where you'll have to go to find all your messages. In addition to the seven messaging applications currently supported,the development to integrate WhatsApp and Telegram is currently underway and should be integrated with the platform this summer.
In addition to messenger aggregation, Mingo plans to build a plugin system on its platform . This will allow service providers and merchants to sell their goods and services via plugins on the Mingo platform. The platform will also allow micropayments, which was previously too expensive with conventional payment methods. The cryptocurrency associated with the platform is the MingoCoin , which will be usable for transactions in the Mingo plugin's economy. MingoCoins can be transferred between users and stored in the MingoWallet of each individual.
The third element of the Mingo platform is MingoPlay , where users can compete in skill games and tournaments with the opportunity to win MingoCoins . Thanks to the plugin system, developers will also be able to launch their own games on the Mingo platform . MingoPlay and the plugin platform will be beta tested this summer, with full implementation expected before the end of the year.
Joe Arthur, CEO of Mingo and Blockchain enthusiast said at the Tech Summit here in Dublin:"We were very pleased to announce the launch of the ICO. It's the biggest event of its kind in Ireland. ICO will help us not only to implement our business model, but also to develop the community and connect with new motivated users. The goal of Mingo is twofold: to introduce cryptocurrency to the masses and finally make messaging easy and simple.Recently, Mingo announced a partnership with Swirlds, who created the public consensus platform Hedera Hashgraph . Swirlds is helping Mingo revolutionize its message aggregation technology and create a unique platform for communication, cryptocurrency transfer and gaming. This will make Mingo a pioneer in the use of Hedera Hashgraph, a technology capable of disrupt the Blockchain industry.
The Mingo ICO will continue until May 30, 2018, with a minimum target of 8,000 ETH and a cap of 45,000 ETH. The Mingo Token (MGT) is an ERC20 compliant token and will be issued on the Blockchain Ethereum. To learn more about Mingo and its ICO, visit their website at mingocoin.com.
