BANANO launched in April 2018 and is growing steadily since then. BANANO is 100% freely distributed and has feeless transactions (don’t worry about gas fees or transaction fees ever again!). Now it’s December already, meaning it’s time for another fresh Monthly Update from the BANANO ecosystem! The idea of those monthly updates is to keep our community informed, provide a good starting point for new people looking at the project, and to be transparent about BANANO’s ongoing distribution activities and community growth.
This BANANO Monthly Update December 2020 summarizes all important happenings in the BANANO ecosphere in November 2020, which is the 32nd month since the BANANO main-net launch.
New Exchange Listing: BANANO is now on Altilly!

What the Fork is BANANO?
For those of you who don’t know BANANO yet: BANANO is a cryptocurrency (like Bitcoin or Ethereum, just a much newer generation). BANANO was forked from the cryptocurrency Nano in April 2018 and thus is powered by DAG technology — here to disrupt the meme economy. BANANO has memes, and also feeless and near-instant transactions, a highly active community, and active technical development! The BANANO community doesn’t take themselves too seriously, but we’re here for the long run and we enjoy what we do.
On top of this, BANANO is super easy to use. Just try our slick mobile wallet called Kalium and get your first free $BANANO from one of our faucets within minutes! Also, BANANO has a free ongoing distribution through innovative faucet games. You can find more details on our official website: banano.cc, and you’ll find help getting started at banano.how.
BANANO is already traded on several exchanges. You’ll find current information collated at Coingecko (and Coinmarketcap) and an overview about all current exchanges here.

Updated data from December 1st, 2020:
Circulating Supply: 1,132,835,130
Burned Total: 504,335,067
Total Supply: 2,898,488,602
You can always check current supply and burn details through our supply API.
BANANO Faucet and Distribution Overview
Aside lots of events and intermittent faucet runs as listed above, we also have several faucets running. A short overview of those faucets can be found below.
MonkeyTalks
An instant & self-sustaining faucet, combined with on-chain messaging
BananoMiner
Earn BANANO by contributing CPU/GPU power to medical research via Folding@Home
BANANO Powerplant
Browser-based altcoin mining that pays rewards in BANANO
Banano BoomPow

BananoJobs
Complete bounties or microtasks called ‘BananoJobs’ — get paid in BANANO
BANANO’s highly popular faucet game ‘Black Monkey’ until mid 2020 was running regularly in focused 24 hour events. Unfortunately Dmitii, our core dev running this faucet hasn’t been able to allocate the time to it due to other priorities and Coronavirus lockdown with bad internet, but it will return — stay tuned! Until then, we’re currently refining another faucet: The BANANO Story2Image faucet! And who knows, maybe there’ll be a new BANANO Runner in the not too distant future ;)
New faucets and modifications will follow over time, and adjustments might always be made to ensure that BANANO’s free distribution stays fair, and also doesn’t make our community members too dependent on BANANO earnings.
Within November 2020, we’ve freely distributed a total of ~12 Million BANANO (October: 13M; September: 16M). Just to name the major events, this has happened through faucet payouts (Bananominer, Powerplant, Monkeytalks, BoomPow, Story2Image faucet), BananoJobs, VITE airdrop, tipping allowances and celery (rewards) to all core team members, major contributors and moderators.
BANANO Tipbots as we use them at Discord, Reddit, Telegram and Twitter are instrumental for showing newly joining members how easy-to-use and fast BANANO truly is, and to actually have everyone use BANANO for what it’s made for — tipping others!
Example Twitter/Telegram Tipbot: In total, since the Tipbot was started in Mid April 2019 until December 1, 2020, more than 44 Million BANANO were tipped in more than 419,000 transactions, only at Twitter and Telegram!
