is Maidsafe 'safe' to buy via poloniex? I am reading conflicting reports on this (though they are dated from more than 6 months ago)

thanks.

I have had no problems trading Maid on Poloniex.

These 3 videos have just been released:

You can find all the videos in this Youtube playlist.

The SAFE Network from First Principles is a series of talks by Erick Lavoie, that aims to introduce all the core ideas and algorithms behind the SAFE Network in a technical yet intuitive and accessible manner. The ideas presented will also allow you to better understand the upcoming wave of decentralized applications and be ready to effectively develop them.

Thanks, was good to have a look at the videos

I have around a BTC worth of Maidsafe in my Omni wallet. I also have like .01 or so BTC to cover the two fees (more than enough.)
I have tried for over a week to transfer those coins out and after filling out the form a popup-window appears, I click send and it just
keeps timing out. Any ideas here?

try using an incognito window in chrome, might help.

I never thought of the browser as I was able to click on "send" in the popup-window (I'm using Firefox). I'll try the suggestion. Thx

Oh you shouldn't use firefox. My bad thought you already know that. You should use chrome.

Hey KeyJockey, once you bought the coins on poloniex or masterxchange you can withdraw them to your own bitcoin address. Preferably the same one in which you're already holding coins.

Thanks for reply... okay, so I did that and it seems to have worked: 25000 balance shows on Omni for my MaidSafe now, cool.

However something strange too... I have on that address also 1.0 BTC but now the bitcoin balance is also showing an extra transaction that put 0.00000547 there? What is that for?

It's kinda annoying just because I've tried to keep only "whole bitcoin" transactions and balance on that address, so now that's been goofed up by this weird 547 satoshis dropped there.

Can I send them out of that address to "clean up" that balance again OR do they have to stay there for MaidSafeCoins for some reason?

Have to say, also, this stuff isn't very smooth at the moment, very confusing and I HOPE that once the actual SAFE Network is released that all these user-experience and interface issues will be improved...

Currently, Maidsafe coin need to be sent with a small amount of BTC in order to travel between wallets. The BTC can be spent with no risk to your Maidsafe once they are in your wallet though so you can clean up your balance.

Safecoin will have a dramatically better user experience...right now, it's a Mastercoin asset...

Hey MaidSafe people... quick question maybe someone here can help me out?

I bought ONE BTC worth of MaidSafeCoin last year in the IPO, connected to a bitcoin address in my main blockchain.info wallet that I set up specifically for this, dedicated only to this SAFE project experiment.

So using omniwallet it still shows there is "MaidSafeCoin (3) 23,800" on that address, same as it's been from the start.

So far so good.

But suppose I wanted to top this up a bit more, say for example buy another 1200 MaidSafeCoin on Poloniex to make my holding an even 25,000.

Once I have 1200 more on my Poloniex account, they're being held by Poloniex "for me"... right? IN THEIR CONTROL as they're the exchange, i.e. same as MtGox was. Bad idea.

So, what do I need to do to put all the MaidSafeCoin tokens "all together" in anticipation of conversion to actual SafeCoin some day?

Where would the best place be to keep it all SAFE (pun intended) and how exactly do I go about doing that?

Hope it's not a dumb question, and I've looked around a little bit for a guide to this but didn't find anything (maidsafe forum software design is just horrible, wish they'd set up on some standard type forum!)

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey KeyJockey, once you bought the coins on poloniex or masterxchange you can withdraw them to your own bitcoin address. Preferably the same one in which you're already holding coins.

On another note, if only comparing the currencies, Bitcoin and Safecoin, in my opinion Safecoin is better.

Safecoin doesn't waste energy like bitcoin do. Energy is used to store data.
Safecoin transfers are instant.
Safecoin is anonomous, you can't track the coins in the blockchain.
Safecoin doesn't run the risk of a 51% attack.
Safecoin doesn't need a 15GB blockchain to be used.
Bitcoin is more well disturbed (but it wasn't in the beginning)
Bitcoin is already up and running (but they seem to be working hard)

Is safecoin "Bitcoin 2.0"? And if not, why not?

Can anyone confirm MAID blockchain is moving? The bex is stuck on block 00000000000000001779b320a7cece695022edb4b42282f722e55c0106a9bf79 since several hours ago https://masterchest.info/transactions.aspx

Is there another block explorer so I can compare data? I have transactions not reaching the destination Sad

Any bitcoin block explorer should work but to check MaidSafeCoin balances go to https://www.omniwallet.org/

It works, but it is really not the same, I need a block explorer to be able to check transactions made to an address, the BTC chain is not helpful either because the data is display in a way that it is not possible to pin point exactly how much was send to where. This is very strange that the block explorer is offline in a moment where the coin price is rising.

Without a working bex there is no way to proof a transaction with X MAID happened and is at Y address or not, this is very unsettling, I hope the developer is aware and working on the bex.
