The idea to invest in MONA came from the yesterday's cryptocurrency investors and traders meetup in Manila. The guy who is organizing has a huge knowledge and he told us that halving on MONA is happening soon.

This is an old coin: **Monacoin LAUNCHING 2014/01/01 0:00 GMT**; but because it has it's roots in Japanese pop culture it's still in game. And just recently some vendors in Tokyo accepted it as they did with bitcoin!


The PC shop in Akihabara began to support bitcoin and monacoin.
