News & How-To's about the cryptocurrency $BANANO
Round 30 of BANANO’s popular Faucet Game ‘Black Monkey’ just started about 1 hour ago! It will run for a total of 24 hours – make sure to check it out!
All Details at Publish0x.
BANANO has just announced BoomPoW (bPow), BANANO’s peel of the distributed proof of work (DPoW) system created by members of the Nano community.
Read all the details here at Publish0x or Medium.
In case you missed it: The Meme Faucet is back online, paying 15 Banano per image description!
Otherwise there are a total of 6 events for $BANANO distribution running right now.
More details: https://www.reddit.com/r/banano/comments/ac3rkg/banano_memefaucet_is_back_online_plus_other/
Banano (BAN) already is listed/traded at Mercatox and has won community votings at two other exchanges launching soon, Txbit.io and numex.exchange.
Now here’s another new exchange voting where you can support Banano: Buzzex.io
Buzzex will launch in early 2019. If you register and vote you’ll also get Buzzex Coins (a token issued by the exchange) for free.
How to vote (only possible once):
1. Register at Buzzex.io
2. Click on “Voting” at the top of the website
3. Find “Banano” (search for ban only, otherwise it won’t work) and vote
Done! You’ll get additional Buzzex coin rewards for certain bounties and for completing KYC, check details here.
Txbit.io just released an article giving an update on the exchange launch and Banano/Nano/Nollar listing.
It basically says the official launch of the dutch exchange is delayed, proposed start in January 2019, no exact date given.
It also mentions that all three DAG based coins winning during the voting phase (which includes Nano) will (hopefully) be listed at launch.
Yes, you heard it right, there is a $BANANO meme faucet, and here’s how to use it to earn Banano.
In this faucet, you’ll need to describe and identify memes (and other images) to prove you are human. So it’s basically proof of (meme-)work. This faucet is aiming to make sure bots or cheaters have no chance, and only real people will earn precious Banano through a fair distribution. Find other options to get free Banano at banano.how.
First, you register with your Banano address on the Banano meme faucet website: https://image.faucet.banano.peppersoft.net/
If you don’t have a Banano address yet or don’t know Banano yet, get help getting started at https://banano.how first.
In the future, whenever coming back you can login with your Banano address, so remember which Banano address you used to register.
Edit: If you get an error message like “Error: IP not registered. Please create a new account to register the IP.” you will need to register again with another BANANO address. This is sometimes required in order to prevent cheating.
Next, the Faucet rules pop up. Make sure to read them. If you try to spam or abuse this faucet you’ll be blocked and get no Banano. All submissions are manually checked by humans, so don’t try to get away with sloppy or inappropriate image descriptions, or any kind of spam.
Then you get started, and you will see two different kinds of options:
As below, you sometimes have to select the correct description. You have 60 seconds to chose. If all four answers are incorrect, click “Report”. Otherwise click “Submit answer“:
You will then see images that need a description, and for this you will get Banano. Just describe what you see:
That’s it, just keep going, and after your submissions have been checked you’ll get your Banano directly sent to your address.
Surely not as exciting as Banano Runner (rumors say it might come back soon), but for now at least it is an ongoing faucet!

The vote itself costs 1 CET (CoinEx token). However, you need to have 1,000 CET in your account in order to vote. CET is the exchange token from CoinEx, you can buy and sell it there. While holding it, you will receive daily dividends and regular airdrops.

You can currently vote for Banano to be considered for listing at the exchange CoinEx. A user from the community has submitted an informal request for this competition.
Short how-to:
EDIT: Detailed, updated how-to here: http://vote.banano.how – better continue reading there!
CoinEx is a rather new exchange that has quickly gathered high volume. Banano’s brother NANO is already listed there, and many trading pairs are BCH-based.
It currently is unclear if the Banano devs are supporting or endorsing the voting, and there is no guarantee that Banano would be listed after getting 500+ votes, but in any case it surely is a good sign if Banano gets lots of votes. Thus, please consider voting!

I have put together a comprehensive FAQ about Banano on the Banano subreddit, here.

Welcome to the fourth general update about Banano. Come back regularly to not miss new BANANO developments!
When Banano Runner and payment?
The fourth runner event happened on July 4/5 (24 hours) with an improved new Banano Runner version 4.2. Great job @mitchellcairns! The payments for this are still outstanding since thedevs carefully check for bots, but no worries, everyone will receive their payments as usual. It still appears unclear if there will be regular schedule for the Banano Runner faucet game in the future, and if payments will be 1:1 or not.
Monkey Match – another official Banano Faucet game
Coranos has further optimized Monkey Match, and on July 5/6 there was another round for this official Banano Faucet game where you could get free Banano. There surely will be more in the near future, so keep your eyes open.
General comment on faucet games since I saw some people complain: Keep in mind that these faucet games in general must cost you time and don’t make you rich overnight. Still surely a much nicer way to distribute a cryptocurrency for free when compared to basically all other faucets or airdrops. So these games are not primarily made for you to have lots of fun, but to ensure a fair and equal distribution. People in Venezuela or other poor countries will earn enough to make their living with these games, while for most others it is not profitable to play these games. If you like your time more than those games, consider rather buying some Banano directly. 😉
Bananobet.com is now online – with a daily faucet!
The website bananobet.com is online since yesterday. Check it out, it is a Banano-based betting website with a faucet giving you 25 Banano daily for free. Full article here.
How To Buy Banano and the current price
Banano has not been listed at a bigger exchange yet, mainly because it is not that distributed that much. That means there will be faucet games and giveaways to fix this in the intermediate run, as it was announced regularly. However, you can buy Banano for Nano at the discord, but prices have recently gone up quite a bit. Current prize is 2661.66 BAN : 1 NANO.
@ironbfly has posted a nice summary of how to buy Banano through the discord escrow bot at #jungle-bazaar. Check it out if you have any questions.
Otherwise Banano was recently also listed on the small South American Exchange troca.ninja and has a BTC and a TNJ trading pair. I tested it with a small amount and withdrew successfully. However, be careful 😉
The Banano volume at the discord recently also has seen some peaks, with more than 2000 Nano volume in 24 hours a few days ago. Thanks @beardless duck for the screenshot:
Banano Minecraft Server online!
@Ryo Akio created a banano minecraft server and added a Banano tipbot to it. Check it out if you like, it is quite fun. See all the action on the server with a dynamic live map shown at http://banano.cash.
Instructions to getting started: Start Minecraft (multiplayer, server IP: banano.cash). When you first enter, you will set a password for your in-game Banano wallet. Open the chatbox with t and type /register followed by your wallet password twice (in one line). Every time you join the server, you’ll have to /login with your password then. Type /balance to see your address and balance/pay player amount to pay another player/withdraw address amount to withdraw Banano. If you are using an offline client (not premium account) don’t use a premium nickname. If you use a premium nickname you will see a error when you try to join the server. There also is a channel at the discord, #minecraft, which is synced with the in-game chat. You also can ask questions there.

Banano Talent Contest

The final pot was 17856 Banano! @BroDyaGa#4061 will be the overall winner and get 40% of the pot if Croatia wins, @Pedro Perez#6524 if France wins. Good luck both! All others who have tipped correctly will share 60% of the pot.
