##What is Masari?

Masari (MSR) is a scalability-focused, untraceable, secure, and fungible cryptocurrency using the RingCT protocol.

Using the power of a distributed peer-to-peer consensus network, every transaction on the network is cryptographically secured against any adversary. Using a cryptographically sound protocol, Masari ensures that all your transactions are private by default.

By using the RingCT protocol, Masari is able to ensure that all transactions are untraceable, unlinkable, and that amounts transferred are hidden from the public.

All of the privacy features in Masari resolve into true fungibility, which makes its digital currency equivalent to cash or gold, where no transaction can be discriminated against another.

There will be around 18.5 million coins issued over 10 years before "tail emission" occurs, which is a small sub-1% annual inflation of 0.3 MSR per minute that would keep miners incentivized and replaces liquidity for lost coins.

There will be a whitepaper drafted when a new scalability feature will be proposed. As this is a Monero fork, its basis are the CryptoNote and RingCT protocols that are well researched and cryptographically sound.

No crowd funding has been done, and won't be for the foreseeable future unless deemed absolutely necessary.
Everything so far (infrastructure costs, exchange listing fees, etc.) has been paid out of personal funds.
There was a 4-5 day gap between the genesis block and this announcement on Bitcointalk (~4k blocks) that mined around 100k MSR which is roughly ~0.5% of the total supply (excluding tail emission). The network was publicly available from the genesis block, and other miners were present pre-announcement. Mined coins were dispersed to community members leaving ~ 12k MSR in the fund.
This approximated amount above has been transferred to the donation wallet and this wallet will be used transparently to help with the project's budget (i.e. developer bounties).
Work for hire is available to be paid for in MSR or BTC.
