The first TYX airdrop was distributed as a bonus to those who expressed early interest. There will be succeeding campaigns, bounties, events, and faucets to distribute 65% of the total circulating supply of 299,792,459 TYX. We are going with this airdrop strategy to ensure the Tachyon token is in as many wallets as possible, a step closer to our goal of complete accessibility.

Tachyon (TYX) is an ERC-20 token built on Ethereum. ✓ Circulating supply will be 299,792,459 which is one more than 299,792,458 m/s, the speed of light in a vacuum. ✓ No inflation or coin burn. All coins are minted immediately at creation. ✓ Divisible by 18 places ✓ Fixed Batch Overflow Bug which broke some ERC-20 tokens TYXs function is best served token for tipping and micro-transactions. It thus aims to be integrated functionally for tips on forums, chats, and elsewhere for small transfers along. Tachyon will also be releasing a community board where users can post small online tasks and pay with TYX upon completion. With the Casper update coming out in Q4 for Ethereum, sending TYX will be cheaper as well as faster.

Depending on who you task, tachyons might be a theoretical impossibility or an exciting prospect. Based off the Greek word tachys meaning swift, tachyons are hypothesized particles faster than the speed-of-light. This may seem impossible according to our current understanding of the natural world. To travel at speeds equal to light, one needs a mass of zero. This means that to travel faster-than-light, the particle would need to have a negative mass. Is such a concept possible to conceive? For now, tachyonic particles serve more as a placeholder for imaginary concepts within astrophysics, similar to how the variable i denotes an imaginary number in mathematics (as is the case when, for example, one tries to factor the square root of a negative number). However, string theory calculations of particle vibrations has found that the squared mass derived from these vibrations can sometimes yield an imaginary number. We are likely limited now by our available tools of detection. Regardless of their validity, tachyons have captured the imagination of science-fiction writers and popular culture ever since it was popularized in James Blishs Star Trek novel Spock Must Die ! in 1970. Its since been seen in Babylon 5 , The Watchmen , and many other pop culture references. Science-fiction has often referenced tachyons to send messages, payments, and digital media in an instant  and TYX will be its crypto-embodiment!

We envision Tachyon (TYX), with its fitting name, as Ethereums complement for tipping and small transfers between friends. Tachyon is a project focused on accessibilityand this includes the novelty aspect of the coin. Meant to be embedded into existing forums, chats, websites, and so on, Tachyon is a memorable token meant to accessorize payments in this digital economy.

This will pose a significant problem since Ethereum has different use-cases when used in smart contracts, payments, and decentralized applications. Ethereum's primary function is not as a currency, but instead as gas for the network. With the Ethereum network only getting larger, its usefulness as a 'currency' will further diminish. Many tokens will thus emerge in time to fulfill this currency function, as a way to accessorize payments done over the Ethereum network.

Ether is to be treated as crypto-fuel, a token whose purpose is to pay for computation, and is not intended to be used as or considered a currency, asset, share or anything else.

With Ethereum moving from a proof-of-work to a proof-of-stake system, its ecosystem will inevitably expand and improve over time. Yet, with its expansion, there will likely be a need for a go-to token for micro- transactions. This is because, as the price of Ether continues to increase, a smaller and smaller fraction will be needed for the average person. The Ethereum.org website itself states in its description that:

Tachyon (TYX) is a new token and currency built on the Ethereum blockchain to streamline peer-to-peer micro-transactions with a focus on ease-of-access, fungibility, and everyday usefulness. Aiming to be an accessible ERC-20 token for tipping and micro-transactions, Tachyon is a cryptocurrency designed to complement Ethereum. With the Ethereum network rapidly growing, Tachyon hopes to be the light-fuel for the futures informal digital economy.

I am interested in the name of your project, mate. Tachyon, the Greek word tachys, seems very unique. Do you plan to provide ICO? I think it is a good way to promote it. I cannot see the idea about it above, but I think it should be better to plan it.

Thanks for the kind words. We considered holding an ICO, but we figured that a nonorthodox strategy of many succeeding airdrops of 5% of the total supply each time would be best.Our goal is to get the Tachyon token in as many hands as possible, which suits our aims of accessibility. The integration of TYX into existing forums, chats, micro-payment channels, and so on, depends on the token, first and foremost, being accessible. The EOS model of token-airdropping really caught our interest as being a potentially better strategy for our project's purposes rather than a standard ICO as has been common on Ethereum.

The concept of the project is easy to understand but equally interesting.The 5% airdrop allocation strategy is also very good, so I will join and support everything that can be done (such as long-term hold).Wish the project success!

Glad you like what you read!We will release our whitepaper within the next day or two. And our website will also finish its development just as soon.Bear in mind, we are only a team of two developers, but we're dedicated to pushing this project to its limits. It's become almost a full-time job because of how fast its moving. It's pretty exciting. So make sure you hold your TYX! -- good things are soon to come.

tachyon has been my favorite word/thing since i found out about it , faster than light particleswas looking forward to something related to it in crypto, lets see how the project goes looking forward to the airdrop the concept is good i hope in future you are able to move this token on its own blockchain which could actually make transactions faster than light
