Hello. Is there an official embed version of maps? I'm embedding through iframe map link with #place- for location but i would like to have also traffic map as default. Can i put something on the iframe link to have traffic map as default (like for example: arcanemaps.com#place-19.82,41.33&#traffic_map)?

Nice work, how do you monitor the traffic?

@walterion1 The product looks good! Can you please elaborate how blockchain-based storage helps on privacy protection? Thank you!

@henry_liang1 Thank you very much Henry! Blockchain is used to store the key of your identity so no central server can control it, therefor cant control your data. That key is used to to encrypt all of your data.

Great product, decentralisation is the way forward. What blockchain is it using? Ethereum ?

@henriper Hey Henri, thank you for your interest and yes this way users can control their data. Blockstack is the blockchain we are using, and it is built on top of Bitcoin.

Hello Walterion, loving the initiative and having managed to deliver, blockchain-based ;) What about shared ownership, like 20% split like 10% on contributors, 10% on users, and x3 reward on year 1, x2 on year 2, x1 on year 3 and then? In my mind, would be fair, still compensate for the hard entrepreneurship, and would value as well with equity/$ users. Thoughts? All the best!

Do you provide API access for custom maps to embed onto ASP.net web apps?
