omg! does it mean that when somebody decides to store some child porn in this decentralized dystopia of yours, everybody in the network will have some child porn on his pc?

no wonder that "THEY" are pushing this stuff that much. once established they don't need any secret police as every critic can be legally thrown into jail for child abuse.

For the people that don't understand, it is very likely to be a scam :

The idea of paying for a decentralized peer-to-peer Internet is totally contradictory. If you get money to run nodes, then you'll inevitably end up with centralised nodes !

The fact that this copy of freenet omit to quote freenet and claim to be a new idea is the proof that MaidSafe is highly dodgy.

It could also be a manipulation to pump the price of MasterCoin up as the price per MSC is fixed.


The whole point of safecoin is that when you contribute a node, the P2P is enhanced.

Similar to Bitcoin in the sense that when you mine the coin, the P2P network becomes more secure.

Different from Bitcoin is that your node does contribute real value in terms of storage (and possibly other resources in the future).

I heard David Irvine speak and he sounds very idealistic and is on a mission.

The website says, "To balance this, we decided to purchase all remaining MSAFE coins to ensure that backers who sent their bitcoins would have their orders fulfilled. This does mean that we can still accept bitcoin orders until the cut-off point at ~6000BTC." And they are at 5698 at the time of writing this.  Pretty amazing IPO.  https://blockchain.info/address/1KHfLixa2idRnZXMUfEisBati1vpywaH6E?offset=0&filter=0

Lots of people screaming scam, but I was impressed enough to send in some bitcoin. :-)

1.2 million in BTC for vaporware given to a charity with no legal comebacks......I really need to run an IPO.
Anyone want some EvilCoin?

Clueless as usual.

How so?  Maid Safe has been 8 years in development and it'll likely never release.  Everyone just gave these guys over a $1 million, that'll likely pay the six figure salaries for the developers for years to come.



Have you read the papers?

Have you looked at the code in GitHub?

Have you met David Irvine?

So you really are unqualified to make that judgement on whether $1 million (actually $2.5 million in BTC) was worth it.   Reality check,  VCs spend tens of millions on companies that go nowhere every day. 

These folks seem to have a system where resources contributed to the network add to the value of the network.  Unlike BTC, where mining just usually goes to waste energy.

Anyway,  I'm an investor here.  So if it pops like Ripple, then we are talking here of about a 10x gain at least.

I heard from others that dev use crowd sale mastercoins to buy safecoins. I saw the mastercoin's block and found that there were about 20000 mastercoins were transfered out then in. Did ripple guys do dirty things like this?

this tx was for the people that sent in 5000+ btc to get converted into maidsafecoin

How come nobody's talking about this? http://maidsafe.net
Looks like one of the most innovative uses of
the blockchain concept since bitcoin itself. After
all it's it just about the money ;-)

People were talking about it the IPO pretty much is nearly sold out
Or I guess not really an IPO crowdfunding project
It is interesting stuff

I am waiting to see my Safecoins in my Mastercoin protocol. It was a gamble, and it isn't over yet.

Smiley

Thanks ;-) we are processing the BTC manually now with the help of the Master Protocol team, it was a rush for sure. We had and are having a few issues with omiwallet and I think the master exchanges are having some sync issues (if you used MSC to buy in). We have everything recoded though and the blockchain does to. Pretty leading edge for sure but it's secure. That's our main priority. I hope by end of today we have all the transactions done. Omiwallet needs to sync with a system that's under stress at the moment, it will hopefully resolve soon. Anyhow we are processing the inputs and the guys should have an on line spreadsheet showing the manual orders being processed as they are done. I do know they said it was painful, I am heading to the office to see if I can help now (3am, tired staff need coffee).  This is where though the blockchain is great, we can audit everything and make sure nobody loses out.

Thanks again

Is the crowd funder over now? I might throw in a bitcoin or two, but would like to know if I can still purchase some Safecoins. The website still has the address posted, I don't know if the cap has been reached.

From http://www.safecoin.io/:

If your funds are returned to you it is either because you have sent currency to the wrong exodus address, e.g. mastercoin to the bitcoin address, or all coins have been sold and the sale has ended.

Here are some folks who have done somewhat of an in-depth research on this:

Wrong branding. "DaveSafe" would be a better name - even a honest one. Cheesy

I don't know if it's vaporware, but it's too expensive given the unknown status of the project imho.

There's already a google wallet and Amazon coins.  Then there's Ripple and Marinecoin.  We don't need another rigged
Scam corporate coin like safecoin.

Anybody knows what is happening? Why maidsafe don't list the mastercoin address  1ARjWDkZ7kT9fwjPrjcQyvbXDkEySzKHwu anymore and continue to list only  the bitcoin address  1KHfLixa2idRnZXMUfEisBati1vpywaH6E  for fundraising?  Huh Have they problems with the particular address due to traffic or something like that or could it be something "bigger" than that ?
PS until now (2 hours) they received about $1.200.000 only from bitcoins*
I suppose they have get more from mastercoins due the best deal for fundraisers...
PS2 After they taked the mastercoin address out MSC price has dropped from 0.17 btc to 0.09 btc !!!
* https://blockchain.info/address/1KHfLixa2idRnZXMUfEisBati1vpywaH6E?offset=0&filter=0

Genius scammers. Unbelievable.

They planned in advance to pump&dump Mastercoin to make even more money.

From the start, what they are doing is manipulating the market. I don't think a promising project's dev would do something like this to make their coin become notorious》
