Bitcoin is too valuable to be used as a currency
Hi,

I'm looking at advanced Crypto 2.0 platforms.
And so far StorJ is building decentralized, incentive-based file storage system, based on StorJ blockchain, that I can understand.

But Maidsafe seems to offer similar functionality (coin + app platform + file storage), without a centralized ledger, without a blockchain !

Anyone understands how can it possibly work?
If a client connects to the network, how the network can find his files? Or his coins?

This should give you a better understanding of the project, its really huge in terms of sheer monstrous size of the codebase.

More specifically for double spending. long thread...
