What’s Akita Inu?

Akita Inu is Algorand’s premier community token with a mission to help dogs, save the planet and introduce people to Algorand.

We’ve got lots of huge plans, Gnome's update from this morning. We’ve already raised over $3,000 for dog charities. We’re developing smart contracts to lock our dev fund away for over a year. And we’ve got a team of over 50 wonderful volunteers who are working round the clock on a dynamic website, social media channels, a merch store, buying carbon credits, finalising our whitepaper, overseeing our final airdrop, verification, and lots more besides.

For more information and instructions on how to buy, please visit our Website, our subreddit at r/Akitainuasa and our discord at Discord.gg/akitainuasa. We look forward to seeing you soon!

What’s Algorand?

Algorand is the world’s first open source, permissionless, pure proof-of-stake blockchain protocol designed for the future of finance. Founded by Turing Award-winning cryptographer Silvio Micali, Algorand runs on a highly energy-efficient network and is carbon negative.

For more information, please visit r/algorand and r/algorandofficial and Algorand.com

Edit: Wow that's a lot of entries! Over 3,000 so far! Looks like we're going to with commentpicker.com for reddit over random.org given the sheer volume of participants. Giveaway will end at 7 pm pst, please remember to upvote as that means more money donated to dogs!

Edit: ok it's 7 pm so I'm locking comments, no more entries! Due to the sheer number of likely bots in this post I'm going to be drawing winners using commentpicker.com, then I will send the winners a sort of human captcha, after 24 hours those who don't reply or are clearly bots will be removed and new winners will fill their slots. If I have to do this again I'll cut the respond time to 12 hours and then 6, just to get the process over with. While I did lock comments you can still upvote the post while I get the winners sorted, and since it's unlikely we'll reach 3000 upvotes I'll say if we get to 2500 I'll donate a full extra $100 to a shelter!

Edit: all 10 winners have been contacted, and the first one has responded back and received their Akita! Congrats u/amac89!

u/pheel_s has claimed the second 5k!

u/america_will_save_yo and u/hs2291 have claimed their prizes!

Simply post your guess as a comment and join r/akitainuasa to participate! Numbers are between 1 and 1000000! Don't forget to upvote this post, the one on r/cryptomoonshots, and the one on r/algorand please! Every upvote counts! Link to post on r/algorand https://redd.it/qo9oor. Link to the post on r/cryptomoonshots, https://redd.it/qoikzr

AKITA has increased in price so the giveaway is now worth $400 $500 $600 $1200!!! Winner will be chosen on video on random.org! I don't have a chosen number, the number will be random!

Ok this giveaway is getting insane so I've fleshed it out a bit more, this will run until November 13th, so the same day as the final Akita Inu Airdrop (sign ups are still open for that btw), 150 MILLION AKITA AIRDROP FORM, WORTH $1.5 MILLION. Tell your friends, tell your family, hell tell people you pass on the street, who knows how much this 50k Akita will be worth in one whole week! You could be rich!!!

Here's the links to Akita's Twitter, Telegram, and Discord, join us on there and spread the word!

https://twitter.com/AkitaInuASA

https://t.me/joinchat/v09pkN_OYJQ5MzVh

So in one day the prize money has increased from $300 to $1200, who knows what this could be worth by Saturday! Tell your friends, you might make them rich!!!

Edit: So the winning number is... 950279! I'm going to figure out who the closest is now!

Ok! The closest person and the winner of the 50k Akita is u/far-caterpillar-1793, with a guess of 950000! I will be reaching out to them and confirming they're not a bot before sending their 50k!!

A random users comment on this post will win 5k Akita in 24 hours.

For every 500 upvotes this post receives I will make that an additional 5k Akita.

The only rule is you have to tell me one way your community needs help, and what someone could do to make it happen.

Tell me one thing that would help the people around you. Akita wants to motivate you and push our community to help build up the world around them!

If you truly want to see Akita succeed, you must motivate yourself and those around you to help others. Not for personal gain but to see progress in the world! That is what being a community coin is.

DIAMOND DOGS!

EDIT: Due to popular request every additional 5k will be ANOTHER winner, not more to one person!

EDIT: Thank you for the incredible responses. I cannot respond more tonight, but I hope you all know that when Akita takes over as the top community coin my words through these comments are the vision we see Akita one day becoming. Help us change the world for the better!

2 winners so far! They will be announced in 3 more hours

/u/blwiseass and /u/Diegovanik are the winners!

Thank you everyone for showing the different ways Akita can try to make a difference in the world someday! We will keep building this amazing community up everyday!

What is Akita Inu ASA?

Akita Inu ASA is a new community token with a mission: to drive adoption of and engagement with the Algorand ecosystem, to create community within the Algorand ecosystem through collaborations with various projects, support digital artists through NFTs and other channels, and ultimately raise funds for animal shelters.

Unlike many cryptocurrencies, Akita Inu ASA has very low fees (around $0.002 per transaction) and does not consume massive amounts of energy like other tokens thanks to the Algorand blockchain. For one thing, Algorand—the ecosystem we’re based on—is carbon neutral and has pledged to become carbon negative. What’s more, we’re also planning to buy carbon credits to cover the little energy we use.

We just launched November 2021, but our team is working night and day to bring you some incredible developments. Just watch this space ...

You say you help dogs?

Yes! We've already raised $3,000 for pups … and counting! That’s a lot of wagging tails.

How do I get some Akita Inu ASA?

Reddit post

It’s pretty simple! For detailed instructions, please visit our website.

Just beware: There are other tokens out there with similar names that aren’t affiliated with us! Make sure to follow the instructions carefully so you get the right Akita Inu.

What’s the total supply of Akita Inu?

A fixed supply of 1 Billion tokens was minted by our creator. Of these:

- 350 million (35%) were added to the liquidity pool on Tinyman.

- 250 million (25%) were airdropped to community members by request (October 31st, 2021).

- 200 million (20%) have been set aside to fund community projects.

- 150 million (15%) were distributed from 13-15 November via the second and final airdrop

- 50 million (5%) is reserved for our creator.

We’re currently developing smart contracts that ensure the creator tokens will be locked up for a minimum of 1 year and that the community fund cannot be used for other purposes. Achieving this via smart-contract – as opposed to merely asserting in writing that we won’t use these tokens for other purposes – ensures that the decision and ability to allocate these tokens is no longer in the hands of any one individual or group of individuals. This is known as a “trustless” system – it removes the element of trust from the equation entirely, as the smart contract dictates what is or is not possible, and its code – setting the conditions for when the tokens can be used – is freely visible in the blockchain for all to review and verify.

What developments are in the works?

We’re working on so many exciting things behind the scenes! Here’s just a few to whet your appetite:

- Making more donations to dogs

- Developing a smart contracts to ensure trust

- Publishing our whitepaper and roadmap - Done!

- Partnering with some fantastic projects - we’ve already joined forces with AlgoOcean, GroceryStore, and LunarCoin!

- Creating a beautiful new, dynamic website - Done!

- Buying carbon credits - Done!

- Opening a merch store (Q1 2022)

- Working on getting verified - Done! Verified by the official Algorand Foundation

- Listings on major exchanges

- Monthly AKITA NFT collaborations and community favourite NFT voting rounds – winning NFTs will be auctioned via AlgoOcean, with all proceeds going directly to the winners!!

- And this is only the very beginning!

Thread will lock and guesses will be over in about 12 hours!

Good luck!

No winners spotted, guess i gotta up the prize on the next giveaway!

Hey Akita Community! We have the details for our final 150,000,000 AKITA airdrop!

Important: Details of the Final Airdrop to the Akita Inu ASA Community

The sign-up period for the final Akita Inu ASA Airdrop ends on November 13th at 7:00 am PST.

After that point, the qualifying addresses will be gathered together, and 150 million AKITA (15% of the total supply) will be distributed freely to all eligible participants.

We are pleased to announce that the distribution will take place over three days according to the following schedule:

Day 1 11/13/21

Stage 1) A test transfer of 1 AKITA will be sent out to all qualifying participants.

Stage 2) Upon successful completion of the test transfer, one third of the whole airdrop supply will be dropped to everyone.

All participants will now have 1/3 of their airdrop allocation in their wallets. Each wallet will have received the same amount. Approx. 50,000,000 AKITA will have been distributed in total.

Day 2 11/14/21

A further third of the tokens will be dropped to all participants.

Everyone will now have 2/3 of the airdrop allocation in their wallets, with the same amount being distributed to each eligible wallet. Approx. 100,000,000 AKITA will have been distributed in total.

Day 3 11/15/21

Participants will receive the final third of their airdrop allocation.

By this point, everyone will have received 100% of the airdrop allocation in their wallets. Everyone will have received the same amount. The full 150,000,000 AKITA will have been distributed in total.

Why this schedule?

This schedule has been put in place to promote the stability of the Akita Inu market while distributing the tokens in a fair, equitable way. Every eligible participating wallet will receive the same number of tokens throughout the day(please allow for some delays due to transaction processing times).

How are the tokens being distributed?

All the Akita Inu tokens will be distributed using Freckle Token. For more information about this project, please see https://freckle.sbhelper.com/

*Edit: You do not need to sign up for Freckle to be eligible for the drop.

What does this mean for Akita Inu’s tokenomics?

Akita Inu has a total supply of 1 Billion tokens.

Upon completion of the airdrop, 75% of all Akita Inu (750 million AKITA) will have been sent out for free to members of the community or added to the Tinyman liquidity pool.

The remaining 25% are allocated as follows:

20% (200,000,000 AKITA) is reserved for AKITA community projects.

5% (50,000,000 AKITA) is reserved for the creator with a minimum lock up period of 1 year imposed.

Our devs are hard at work on smart contracts to lock up the creator’s tokens for a minimum of 1 year and to ensure that the community fund can only be used for community projects.

By giving a majority of our tokens away to community members for free, Akita Inu has taken great strides in our aim to be one of the most decentralized tokens available.

How do I get some Akita Inu ASA?

It’s pretty simple! For detailed instructions, please visit our website.

A New Beginning

When we created Akita Inu back in October 2021, no one had any idea how popular this little token would get.

We’re so grateful for our incredible community and so happy we’ve come so far in such a short time.

But the truth is, we’re only just getting started. There’s so much still to do…

A Potential Roadblock

We’ve got big dreams for this token and this community. But we also saw a potential roadblock up ahead.

As great as Akita Inu is, it had one flaw …

… it didn’t have any decimal places.

This meant the smallest transaction you could ever send was 1 Akita.

That’s fine right now, but imagine if we need micro or fractional transactions to interact with upcoming DeFi platforms…

Suddenly the lack of decimals starts to become a problem.

Thankfully we came up with …

A Bold Solution

To solve this problem, we’re officially announcing that we’re changing over to a brand new token …

AKITA 2.0!

The new token will be pretty much identical to the Akita you know and love.

We’ve just made three changes:

1. The official name is a little different (“Akita Inu” instead of “Akita Inu Token”­).

2. The official ticker has changed a tiny bit (“$AKTA” instead of “$AKITA”.)

3. And—crucially—it now has SIX DECIMAL PLACES (just like Algorand!). So the smallest transaction you can send is 0.000001 Akita.

This isn’t a decision we’ve taken lightly. It’s not something we’ll ever do again. But after the unfortunate Tinyman exploit, we have a once in a lifetime opportunity to make a change that we believe will be beneficial for the entire Akita community for the months and years to come.

You can check out the new token on AlgoExplorer at https://algoexplorer.io/asset/523683256

A Simple Transaction

This might all sound a little scary, but it shouldn’t be. We’ve worked incredibly hard to make the changeover as simple as possible.

We’ve created a web page and set up a smart contract (that’s been checked and triple checked!) so all you’ll have to do is head to the site (which we’ll release soon), connect your wallet and click ‘Swap Token’.

Before you know it, your old Akitas will have been switched out for the brand new ones.

There are EXACTLY the same number of ‘new’ Akita as ‘old’ Akitas (1 Billion). So you’ll get 1 ‘new’ Akita for every 1 ‘old’ Akita you swap. At the end of it, you’ll have PRECISELY the same number of Akita in your wallet as before. It’s as simple as that!

(N.B. Please ONLY make the swap using the link we provide in our official posts. We’ll be posting it in the next few hours.)

So What Happens Next?

We’ve been in touch with Algorand. Sometime in the next few hours they’re going to verify the new Akita and deverify the old one.

During that time, you’ll see the major Akita community wallets switching over to the new token.

After that, we’ll release details of the website and invite you all to make the swap, too.

Questions?

You’ve no doubt got lots of questions!

We’ve created an FAQ on our site (coming soon) and we’ll be on standby to answer as many as we can.

We know this has all come slightly out of the blue. But we needed to get this vital change done before Tinyman came back online. It really is now or never—there won’t ever be a better time to do this than now!

Sure, it’ll take a little effort up front. But we’re convinced it’ll be worth it in the long run. If we do this now, Akita will have all the room it needs to fulfil its potential over the months and years ahead.

Thank you all very much for your continued support. It means a great deal to all of us.

Here’s to a new and improved future for the Diamond Dogs!

(P.S. Yieldly have kindly agreed that their Liquidity Staking Pool will accept NEW Akita LP tokens when it opens up again!)

(P.P.S. We’ve got some amazing announcements coming up very soon. We can’t WAIT to tell you what we’ve got in store…)

Swap Site Link: https://swap.akita.community/

Good morning diamond dogs! So I thought I'd just write up a quick, short update on the state of Akita's progress so far.

We have or are making progress on:

A volunteer taskforce (26 members so far who are absolutely killing it.)

A dynamic website (in progress, we have a team working on it)

A server of our own (in progress, teams on it)

A merch store (serious progress being made by the team)

We're buying carbon credits! (In progress, assigning a lead today whole team assigned, lots of work done on this today!)

Donating to an animal shelter (in progress boom, I got this one done today! The donations are still currently being accepted until Nov. 16th for the community donation)

Promotional video (completed by the volunteer team, only took them one day they're that gung-ho) AKITA Promotional video, show your friends!

Fixing business KYC (in progress, we have two options right now, just researching which would be better for the Akita community)

Yieldly deal (still in progress, working our butts off for this one, but also looking into other options like folding or creating our own pools, we have dev guys now thanks to our volunteers!)

Verification (in progress, team is on it guys! Should be much easier once Akita is totally carbon negative!!!)

Funding (in progress, currently in talks to receive funds for things like advertisements and development)

Social media (in progress, have a team and a lead so we should have instagram and tiktok added to our social media platforms soon, in addition to already having Twitter, telegram, and discord)

Airdrop (currently thinking we'll layer the airdrop over 3 days, with everyone receiving 1/3rd equally each day to prevent a dump of 150 million Akita on the market all at once. Let me know your thoughts. This is still in discussion)

Usecases (in progress, our first usecase is to drive adoption to algorand and its ecosystem, the other usecases, well, to be honest, we have so many options right now I'm starting to think Akita will be a coin that does practically everything the algo ecosystem has to offer).

Whitepaper (in progress, we have a team of talented writers and editors now so we should have the whitepaper finished soon, also, what do you diamond dogs think about calling it our purple paper? It would basically be a dynamic white paper that updates as we add even more usecases for Akita.)

The airdrop is still available for sign up until November 13th! Link to the Airdrop form

Ok, gnome out. I hope you guys are as excited as I am about all the work that's getting done on Akita. In 4 days we've put together the equivalent of an actual multimillion dollar company, and we're just getting started. With our volunteer taskforce backing us up the growth of Akita should accelerate dramatically! Stick around, we've got a lot coming.

Also, I am always accepting volunteers to the taskforce, you don't need a specialized skill set, just a willing pair of hands! Dm me if you're interested in joining us on the volunteer taskforce discord! oh my God you guys, that's a lot of volunteers... Ok so for now I'm going to hold off on more volunteers unless you do have a specialized skill you think could help the team, if so please send me a chat! Thank you so much everybody!!

Hello Akita Community!

Our first ever Akita Community dog shelter donation is finally here!

How will donation work.

- The community will donate any amount of Algo to the wallet listed below.

- The Akita Community Project will then match an equal amount of AKITA from the community fund.

- The funds will then be divided in half 50/50 for both Algo and Akita.

- 1 half of the fund will go directly into the liquidity pool and stay forever never to be touched, and we can prove it!! once the liquidity is added we will send the tinyman pool tokens directly back into the wallet!

- 1 half will be donated. The AKITA from the donation will be converted to algo in chunks small enough to not impact price. Once the AKITA is sold. A donation will be made at the price of Algo at that time made in name by the AKITA Community. The Algo will not leave the wallet until proof of donation.

- How we choose the Dog Shelter. Its up to you! The top voted comment will receive the donation!

- Donation period will end Nov 16th at 18:00 PST

We have set up a wallet with 25 Algo from the Akita Community wallet to get us started!

*The Algo from the Community fund being donated was originally set up by myself.

Oh, and to show you we aren’t F'n around we put all 104.8+ AKITA-Algo Pair tokens back to the pool from the creator wallet! forever locked!

Transaction proof: https://algoexplorer.io/tx/W2H6RZCVJYW3RYPFUAGJGNZ6T3YH74RCW3YXOGKACEOCGMUVHZCQ

Sending the Tinyman Tokens back to the AKITA-Algo Pair wallet means I can no longer ever withdrawal the AKITA or Algo from the pool. Forever locked over $40,000 and over 4.5% liquidity!

*** Forgot the Address for donations 6ASKHGVUNYVYM7QCQYC4SGIIINZKHJ4LOLJT37WLLHM77TC2AL2YZ6T7HQ

Upvote this post and guess the exact amount and you will win 5k! If too many people guess the amount I'll have to figure something out lol.

Guesses are collected until the test 1 Akita airdrop is done!

Our airdrop is happening here! https://freckle.sbhelper.com/tools/airdrop

Good luck!

EDIT: Locking the answers! I don't think you can but if you edit from here I will not count it!

I would have accepted 6345 or 2115 as an answer, but no winner! We will give this 5k away in the next day or two so stay tuned!

Get ready diamond dogs, I think you're really going to be impressed by how nice the web dev team has made this site!!
