About a week ago Polispay added Telos to their supported coins.

Polispay is pretty useful service providing not that many use cases, but those few are very good and well connected together, and after studying a bit about Polispay, it is no wonder Pascal wanted to co-operate with them since, indeed, they do seem to be having some very similar goals as Pascal has in payment area.

First of all, Polispay has a wallet that can hold multiple currencies in it. Nothing new there, there have been them before too.

However, this wallet then makes it possible to have its “Shift” system, which is actually an instant conversion/trade to other coins. Basically a feature that normally Exchanges have, but one that is now applied to a wallet.

Normally when you want to buy some BTC with Litecoins for example, it would take 10 minutes for Bitcoins to arrive at you if things work right, and if not, it could take even a day as have happened with Bitcoin couple of times. However, using Polispays Shift system you will instantly get your BTC to your wallet ready to use.

Having basically an instant payment system in place, this would naturally make a basis for an e-commerce payment system, which Polispay indeed is making right now, making it possible for you to add polispay merchant system as a payment option, and therefore enabling you to sell your stuff on your website against Telos coins for example.

This merchant system is not completely ready yet, but there is already a demo store showing it, so I suppose we might be talking of only of weeks before this Merchant system is ready to use. Of course, at first it won’t have all the features they plan it to have, but I am sure they will be working hard to get the rest of the features set up in relatively short after.

Also, this merchant solution is not limited to just e-commerce, but you could also use this in Brick and Mortar stores to accept for example Telos coins for payment.

Another interesting possibility this Shift system makes possible is the Credit Card system.

And yes, Polispay already has a Polispay Credit Card, a Mastercard to be more precise.

We are not yet there where Crypto enthusiasts have been dreaming of where you can just hold your Telos in your Wallet/Card, go to the grocery store, and use your Cryptos to pay your purchases, but Polispay makes us get pretty close to that already.

You are still not able to use your Cryptos directly to buy your groceries but with polispay, all you have to do is to open your polispay wallet cellphone app and choose to “charge” your credit card. This Charging in practice means that you choose to charge for example 10 000 Telos coins to your credit card, which in practice means that your 10 000 Telos would be sold against FIAT of your choice instantly, and then this FIAT amount could be used with that card anywhere where Mastercards are accepted.

In other words, due to the instant nature of sales happening immediately in polispay with Shift. with one extra step, you are practically able to buy groceries with your Cryptos in any place where Mastercard is accepted.

If the card or merchant options are not interesting to you, then Polispays Vouchers that have been provided in co-operation with Bitcou Gmbh might interest you instead. You can buy Gift Cards to Nintendo eShop, Playstation, or XBOX even, and to make most of the stuff available to you, there are also Amazon gift cards available among others.

Paying these Gift Cards has been made easy. You can buy them against any supported Cryptocurrency, that includes Telos too, and you could as example simply use your cellphone to open menu option from polispay wallet where you can buy these gift cards.

As is usual in the crypto world, Polispay has its own Polis coin as well. Nothing unusual there. POS system, so you can add Polis nodes, which I think Pascal already mentioned will come in future as options to both Peertoro and Blueboxes.

Polis coins will be used for example to pay fees that come from using Polispay Credit Card, Fees that will all be payable only with Polis coins.

Not at all a bad addition to Telos options this one!

YourBrainOnBlockChain just yesterday started posting pictures about Xminer Preorders. As far as we understand it, backed with the website for preordering existing already, although in German language only, it should mean you can now pre-order Xminers for a price of 12 000 Euros through YourBrainOnBlockChain, including a lifetime hosting.

Keep in mind that this should be the only way to buy those Xminers against Euros since Pascal have said he will sell Xminers only against XBTX – 10 000 Euros worth of XBTX.

The price might seem a bit steep, but when you consider this will be having mining power equivalent of 320 Blueboxes, and as Pascal at one point in Discord pointed out, that if Xminer had been mining at that specific moment, it would have been making about 6 000 Euros worth of XBTX a month.

On top of that, Pascal has said he will limit the amount of Xminers, to possibly just 5 in total, making it keep its value and mining power, so not that bad price after all.

True, might be too heavy a price for most of us to get there, but if you can buy it, sounds like it could be the best deal of the year you are going to make.

So your Germany isn’t what it used to be anymore and you weren’t able to follow what they spoke about in KryptoFriday Episode 20.

No worry, Discord Username “Running_Wilson” did some investigative journalism and watched the episode and sent a summary to TELOSNEWS.COM about what all they discussed.

First of all there was a lot of talk about the upcoming wallet update with details about what the next version should hold as well as even about stuff that are planned to become only maybe a year later yet.

Notice by the way that this wallet update is NOT mandatory, so if you don’t want it, you don’t have to take it but you can as well do with your current wallet.

Due to the massive nature of the update, it is not going to be named regularly as 2.1 or something, but instead, in homage to certain movie franchise, it is going to be named version 33 1/3.

This new Wallet will be based upon PIVX 4, and it will include loads of improvements to interface, functionality, and looks.

One of the most telling changes is the reduced amount of memory needed. Before you would have needed 2Gb Ram, now you need only 200 Mb. That is memory reduction to only 10 percent of what it used to take!

Another one that might interest those interested in running master nodes is that setting up master nodes is made much easier with this wallet. Basically you are going to be getting quite far with just point n click system, as you click on the tier you want to set up and stuff you used to need to enter manually, will now get automatically set up for you.

There is even a plan that in future even the server-side would be automatically done by wallet, but that is not going to happen in this update yet.

Graphics will be very different from the current looks and will also include some useful rotational banners which can show places like Peertoro and Kryptobay, or even exchanges where Telos is available to be traded at.

In addition to wallet update, there was also talk about Polis co-operation in which Pascal confirmed that there was co-operation happening between Polis and Telos.

In the past Pascal hadn’t specifically noted Polis, but now it happened to be that Polis had adopted some same things Pascal was planning to adopt to Telos too, so why not co-operate instead of reinventing the wheel and both can benefit.

Polis should integrate Telos into it during next week (does it mean this or the next one? well, I guess we will soon find out) and Pascal have already taken a look at Polis App and says it looks very good.

There was talk also about Polis Credit Card into which Telos will likely get too since Polis guys are already hard working on that. If this happens, then you could pay with Telos on the go.

But as already mentioned, this is co-operation, so it isn’t onesided benefits, but as Telos is setting up its own exchange, with German licenses all, this was naturally of great interest to Polis too, and similarly it is planned that Polis will be included in Telos projects, like peertoro and Blueboxes will soon also include Polis Nodes in their offers.

Then there was also mention of the latest price development where the Price of Telos had gone from 45 SAT to 70-75 SAT, and it was wondered if we will reach even 80 SAT soon.

there was also a mention about upcoming Tangem Telos cards, but there was nothing that TELOSNEWS.COM hadn’t already reported in its article about Tangem notes coming to Telos and Subsidium.

There you have it. Thanks to Running_Wilson you can still keep ignoring your German classes.

There is Bluebox, Greenbox, and upcoming Blackbox. And these are now joined with X… Miner.

Xminer was somewhat announced this week by Pascal and Xminer is, as the name suggests, meant for mining. It is basically a very powerful PC in X-shaped cover and its main purpose, or at least as far as we have been told, is to mine XBTX.

Price is pretty heavy, 10 000 Euros, and payment is accepted only in XBTX. Price might sound steep, but Pascals estimation was that if this Miner be mining right now, it would make about 6 000 Euros a month of profit currently, so not that bad price after all.

On top of that, we have to remember that Pascals plan is to keep XBTX mining very restricted, that you need to get one of his Willy Wonka tokens to be able to mine XBTX at all with your own equipment, and this will include that.

For this reason, this might well be a long term investment, unlike those other unnamed miners we have learned to know that get old in a year or two already, if they even be worth it even at beginning.

Only very little info about this machine is known yet, and Pascal already told that he is hiding some surprises from us. This reminds me about Blueboxes when Pascal was completely hiding from us that it could also work as a Miner, until suddenly he announced we would be able to mine a whole new coin-XBTX.

There might well be some worthwhile surprises waiting there, if it be anything like the Blueboxes secret was.

Miner takes roughly 500 Watts in normal mode but is completely silent since it is water-cooled, and if you don’t mind the electricity bill, you can make it work up to 1 000 Watts of power.

If you do mind the electricity bill, there is also a Co-Location option available like in Blueboxes. Split is 80/20 and you don’t need to worry about electricity or even where to keep it anymore.

When will this be available for order? Your guess is good as mine. All I can say is that probably soon.

Masternodestats.info, the place which was first to have statistics of all 5-tiers of Telos and where you can buy with TELOS more coins to be listed to their list of followed coins have just added first two other than TELOS coins.

Of course, no one really cares about anything but TELOS, but in case you want to sometimes see how some other, less interesting coins do, you can now also keep an eye on statistics of PivX and DASH. The main interest is of course in following how fast they will be worth less than TELOS and how much less they will be worth.

Also, don’t forget there is a cross-promotion offer between masternodestats.info, peertoro, and bluebox.

And another announcement first done by YourBrainOnBlockchain, this time it is an announcement of Greenboxes being available to order through YourBrainOnBlockchain.

Greenbox is very much like a Bluebox, except it is directed for companies, and instead of meant to just make a profit like Blueboxes are, Greenboxes idea is to work as an cheap alternative for Companies to get their CO2 certificates.

It is a quite brilliant approach actually. Normally companies would simply pay 100 Euros to buy some certain amount of CO2 certificates, but now instead they could use the same 100 Euros, and instead of getting just 100 Euros worth of CO2 certificates, they will get much more worth of certificates since those 100 Euros will be used to buy for example Telos node and these nodes profits are then used to automatically buy CO2 certificates.

You could say that with Greenbox you are buying a CO2 certificate generator that keeps producing you more and more CO2 certificates in time.

No need to worry each year to buy those Certificates when you can just buy Greenbox once and it takes care of it automatically each year.

Although I mentioned 100 Euros, price is not that cheap actually, but you can either buy one for around 599 Euros to your company to operate yourself, or you can buy a full service version that also includes 100k Telos nodes for 1 500 Euros a piece.

Concept is pretty simple. Lets say you want to get your footprint compensated. If you live in Germany your carbon footprint in a year is about 11 000 Kg. One Greenbox in YourBrainOnBlockchains example produces roughly 4 000 Kg worth of certificates a year. So pay once to get yourself 3 Greenboxes, and you can continue living as you like forever as your Carbon Footprint is more than compensated with these three boxes with this one time bought.

All projects for greenboxes are chosen by MyClimate and are approved by the United Nations.

If you are looking for an easy way to get CO2 certificates for your company, well, Greenbox automates it all. All you have to do is to order a Greenbox, and everything else, including buying those CO2 certificates, will be done for you. No need to waste manpower, just buy greenbox.

Today it finally happened, Apple approved iOS wallet and now you can download it to your iPhones and Apple Watches.

However, since Free the wallet bounty is still not filled up, this means that iOS wallet will cost 10.99 until that Bounty is up.

However, if you own pretty much anything Telos, like Peertoro or Bluebox, you can ask for a free voucher to download the wallet.

In addition, there is also a little campaign going on right now which makes you think twice if using that voucher is actually smart or not. For if you are one of the first 100 to buy that wallet for 10.99, you will in addition get Peertoro 10k node for yourself as a bonus. With current Telos price, that is worth around 40 Euros, so might be wiser to pay than to get for free right now.

This is also a good opportunity to tell to your friends who have been interested in Telos but havent jumped in yet. What an easy way to get into Telos, just buy iOS wallet, and you get a node.

Looks like today is promising to become a good day for those looking to read articles about Telos, for we already have one article to read today and as it is Monday, we expect Lucky Seven to release his usual Monday article at a later point too.

Crypto Masters has released their article titled “Telos 2.0: A Centralized Vision For Decentralized Innovation” which tells quite a lot of things about Telos, mentioning Aeguana, Bluebox, etc. and also telling about Telos 2.0 changes, like the Tiered model.

Now you can go and read the whole article, which is pretty long actually, and after you are done reading, perhaps come back to check if Lucky Seven has already released his Monday article, for TELOSNEWS.COM will, of course, tell you about that too when it happens.

Collateral for a Dash Node nowadays usually costs around 100 000 USD. Imagine if you could set up a Dash node for just 90 000 USD- And that is what Peertoro is now offering!

Yes, you heard that right. Peertoro now has a new pricing model where instead of paying double to triple of node collateral for a lifetime hosting (which is not bad either), you are now instead paying only 90 percent of the nodes collateral to get a lifetime hosting.

But yes, there is a small catch. You will get only 90 percent of Nodes income since the remaining 10 percent is took as a hosting fee.

But that is still pretty amazing offer. Either pay 100 percent and a monthly fee to host your own node, or pay one-time 90 percent, and no more cost to you, but still 90 percent of nodes income. Making you basically be able to buy 10 percent smaller nodes for 10 percent less price with lifetime hosting, making it cheaper to get in and cheaper (=no cost) to keep them running

And yes, TELOSNEWS.COM does understand that the Dash examples problem is that Dash is not on Peertoros list of nodes yet.

But don’t worry, there is a solution to that too. In addition to the new node pricing model, there is also a possibility to get more coins listed for hosting.

Coin Developer can pay a one-time fee of either 3 000 Euros in FIAT or even in that new coin to be listed currency, or pay 1 500 Euros worth of TELOS coins, and the new coin will be listed to Peertoro hosting.

This means that you could first buy Dash to be listed to Peertoro and then buy that node for 90 Percent of the price, making it still the cheapest way to get to having your own Dash node.

In addition, this newly listed coin will also be listed to Bluebox owners as a possibility as well as will get a one month of free banner rotation in both Kryptobay and GunsRus websites.

oh, and talking of bluebox owners, do notice that this new 90 percent offer doesn’t include the “buy one, get another to bluebox for free”-offer as Gold node offers do.

It was also said that a cross-promotion offer with MasternodeStats.info will follow at a later point.

To Quote Dev: “Operation Pacman – We gonna eat you all” has Begun

Dev have just announced he have got DUNS number to Apple Appstore.

What does this mean? It means Dev can release stuff to Apple Appstore, and this includes the possibility to release Telos iOS wallet, and this is actually what he plans to do, except, there’s a little catch. Telos community needs to step up a little.

You might have noticed this pinned post about Android wallet for free.

Dev now says that not only will Android wallet become free when 400 000 Telos is collected on this bounty, but also iOS wallet will become free, and also released, when this Bounty is reached.

We are halfway there already, so open up your wallets and put your Telos flying towards that Bounty

To help with this effort, Dev have even made an appealing offer for all the Bluebox owners. If you own a bluebox, and you donate at least 40k Telos in this bounty, then your usual 64k Telos in blueboxes will be upgraded to 100k. This means that by donating 40k Telos, you are actually getting back 36k, by other words, you donate only 4k Telos in practice, now how little is that?

I would hurry up if I be you, theres space for only 5 more upgrades anymore, then the bounty is fulfilled and rest will miss this chance.

Telos side product GunsRus is a Youtube kind video service aimed at gun-related content because Youtube has started banning them.

Just a moment ago Dev announced that GunsRus now has a “bitcoin related” – category.

TELOSNEWS.COM naturally wonders why would anyone care of making anything Bitcoin related anymore when they can just make Telos related stuff.

In giving some additional motivation for people to make a bang by aiming their videos to be uploaded to GunsRus, there are now prizes available for uploaders.

One with most views in a week will win a 100k Telos node from peertoro. And this prize is not given just once, but once a week, the first prize given already a week later at the first of September.

In Addition to this, every uploader will have a chance at winning bluebox gold. Once a month a winner will be picked by random among all uploaders.

With these prizes in place, I guess it is about time to make that video idea of yours a reality, for it could earn you a bluebox gold even if no one wants to watch it.

What happens at gamescom don’t stay at gamescom

As previously reported by TELOSNEWS.COM Gamescom was held from 20 – 24th of August 2019 and Telos was present there too.

In Addition to Dev hitting High Score at IK+ and our previous report about Retrodragonbox shop stocking IndieGO Console, lots of other things happened .

Lucky for you, you don’t need to find out about them yourself but TELOSNEWS.COM is here to give you a roundup of what Dev has so far revealed.

It appears Bluebox is going to be getting some sort of add-on regarding mining. This add-on will be designed by people experienced in FPGA based devices, and among their belly is, for example, the fastest Classic Amiga computer card currently existing.

Return Magazine is one of bigger Retro Gaming magazines, although in Germany only. Regardless, they are about to make an article about IndieGO Console and Telos.

Another magazine going to be making an article is Amiga Future Magazine, the biggest Amiga Magazine in the world and the one with whom Dev shared the booth with.

Speaking of Amiga, it seems Telos is about to get a strong foothold among Amiga Community.

First of all, there were talks of co-operation with Hyperion Entertainment, which is the company behind current official Amiga Operating System called AmigaOS4, and they have also made some amazing game and other ports to Amiga, including some drivers like graphics drivers for example.

Hyperion is also important for many Amiga Users in that to some of them it symbolizes the real Amiga way.

One of the things Hyperion was interested was selling IndieGo Consoles games for Amiga Computers. What makes this especially interesting is that new IndieGO games require the IndieGO AppStore to be present on the Amiga, making much more people get IndieGO Appstore to their Amigas.

This will then open up the next possibility which was talked, which was talks about funding future Amiga projects through governance.rocks. This would naturally make sense if lots of Amiga users are already having IndieGO Appstore in their machines and therefore are already used to using Telos coins for their purchases.

Amiga community is not only one to adopt IndieGO Appstore soon, but as was mentioned in the previous article shortly was mention about dragonbox shops Pyra handheld Device starting to sell also IndieGOs games in there. But what was left out was that dragonbox shop is actually planning to add IndieGO Appstore to these devices. With 7 500 sold Pyra Handheld devices, this gives quite a nice new potential for Indiego AppStore customer base growth.

There were naturally more talks with people, but worth a mention still is a man named Trevor Dickinson. Trevor is a Business Angel from New Zealand, and as it happens to be, one of his angel companies has something to do with Cryptos and he decided to put our Dev in touch with them. Will this result in anything? Who knows, but maybe even something big. Trevor and Dev are even planning to meet again at October in another event.

Another interesting thing that Dev got from the gamescom was that he found out a bit about how to publish a paper magazine and now he is giving a thought to publishing he’s own cryptocurrency magazine. Will this happen? We might find out in coming weeks as Dev finds out more about it.

See, this exactly why you need to read TELOSNEWS.COM. Just imagine how long finding all that would have taken you.
