Topic: [ANN] IPO of MaidSafe:  Entering the Future of the Decentralized Internet - page 113. (Read 579765 times)

I've been away for a while.. is it possible to exchange maidsafecoins for safecoins yet?

It might have little effect on the market...but the tech is freaking awesome.  I'm not too worried about the market.  It raised faster than I wanted (not complaining though).

Thanks for posting the update...

Apparently testnet1 will be up and running in the next few days upto a week, They working very hard coding it . will be interesting to see how it affects the market. might do jack all :L

edit.    actually already up: https://www.maidsafe.org/t/dev-update-week-beginning-7th-july-2014/668

Then it is one of the most elaborate Crypto scams I have ever seen...here is the latest Dev report.  There should be another one out soon...

https://maidsafe.org/t/dev-update-week-beginning-30th-june-2014/608

As far as investment goes, it really depends on how widely used it is.  I think to begin, a lot of the price will be crypto speculation and people setting up farming networks to earn the Safecoin.  The Safe Network at the beginning, as one person put it, will likely be a geeks playground until people and (hopefully) commercial business start seeing the benefits and overhead savings. 

I can't wait to see what happens...

I still think this is scam.

The 90% will be farmed and given to developers. also developers of applications will be earning 10% of the farmers income if the farmers are using their apps

The more popular an application is, the more people use it, the more 10%'s of peoples earning potential.

Stores would need to cover costs, but they would be earning coins from people visiting their store, they would also have the ability to trade openly for maidsafe allowing them to sell directly for the currency which can then be used to maintain their applications running costs if there was any.

The price couldn't obviously be too extreme but it would depend totally like most businesses on profits. the price of a single coin wouldn't matter in regards to anything if they were making profit, if their application was making more than it cost then the price of the coin is not really that important, they have a application that earns them money , to an audience they wouldn't have otherwise. every week they are in the green they make more maidsafe than it cost to run the application.

but then you would have to go even greater in depth, people who made money are one thing, but new business and people who don't make money would likely drive the price down, unwilling to purchase for over a certain amount and following strict guidelines to ensure profitability and increased chance of success of their own applications. Which will drive price down a little but it would equalize around the middle of the 2 gaps....which are undetermined because anything currently would be purely speculator.

But it has the ability to be, not stupidly highly priced but to increase in value by much more than it is currently.

The overall idea of MaidSafe is incredible. I feel like buying some just to take part in yet another great experiment.
But would you really call this an investment, relative to BTC? I mean BTC is poised to go much much much much higher.
Now, imagine MaidSafe becomes very accepted and is used, isn't a high price of the tokens counter productive to it's use?
I'm being honest here. Again, I love the idea, but I question its use as an investment. e.g. In two years if BTC hits 10,000, does MaidSafe go up to .48 app?
Are the 90% that weren't sold to be used for those wanting to take part in the network?

Thx in advance,
Its about sharing

Did you try omniwallet.org ? It's really sweet.

Most of the trading is still happening on masterXchange

That liquidity definitely helped a lot
MasterXchange really is not one of the most liquid ones out there and having it around with more coins helps.

Its great to see MaidSafeCoin's get on other Exchanges!  I hope MasterCoin finally gets a Wallet out.

 

Quick answer: Once the SAFE network is up, farmers who share their bandwidth, disk space and CPU-power will get rewarded in safecoins. People and companies who like to use the network will use safecoins to pay for them self. 

could anyone please ELI5, whats the purpose of purchasing Maidsafe coins if this is a decentralized web?

Finally in the green too.. feels nice.

Hasn't made it there yet (1.5x at this mornings peak) but it is now worth more than the IPO price I paid.  Finally! 

It's going to tail off a bit for a while but it is a great sign.

Finally got into a more liquid exchange... poloniex.

I would not be surprised if it doubled it's IPO price.

Why is price going up? Where is relevant information regarding MAID?

Crypto Analytics has rated MAID a buy!
