Is there any more information yet on farming? Now that the coins are launched it would be nice to setup a vault / farm to earn more...
Maidsafecoin is just a temporary coin until they get the actual system deployed.
Maidsafecoin gets traded 1 to 1 with safecoin when that happens.
So there is no farming till then.
However, doesn't prevent folks from designing and selling hardware for farming!
Looks like starting prices for these farms are at $5,000 with 45 empty storage units. Fully loaded with 4TB drives... 180 TB TOTAL storage ... will cost you $5,000 + $7380 = $12,380!
Run the numbers and see how much safecoin you can make in a year with this setup.
But also remember that the numbers given in the white paper are based off 2000 running nodes. so if there was to be 16,000 nodes, which at this point is completely possible considering the attention it has gotten and the fact any person interested in crypto mining on their computer can also run this without using any extra electricity or drain their computer. If the number is 16000 or over nodes you looking at 100 a day not 800.
just a warning, because the amount of attention and funding they received which they completely didn't expect will most likely have been applied to the whitepaper numbers as well. and considering its popularity already, i would say 20,000 nodes is a massive under estimation. and the numbers given out on the white paper are for 2000.
Well the Proof of Resource would be a equation that will include availability and amount of storage. I don't think the number of running nodes comes into the equation.
I just heard over the radio on NPR that cloud storage solutions are increasing by 30% every year. One of the big problems is when the cloud company is taken down by the government (see: Megaupload) or gone bankrupt. So Safecoin actually does satisfy a real need in the space of cloud computing.
It's simply an attempt to say "units".
