Will every day users who want to use the Social Network layer a la facebook be required to buy amps to get started? Or can they get started without any "crypto complications" and having to buy stuff?
No. On the contrary. If you set up a Synereo node you'll be compensated with AMPs. If you want to upload heavy content, requiring resources which exceed what you're contributing, or if you want to amplify posts, you'll need to pay with AMPs. OK, thanks. Just to clarify though, as an average user isnt going to want to start a node : they can use the social network layer without buying any amps/doing anything complicated? Only if they want to upload heavy content etc would need AMPS?
