Byteballs is the first coin (besides skycoin) to be able to achieve consensus in a public network, without mining. They have gotten rid of the blockchain and replaced it with a DAG. I think the future is going to be with a variant of this approach. We have been considering this for years, for a Skycoin 2.0. I have not reviewed their code or implementation, but the concept is extremely innovative.

Usually I wouldn't spend calories on this, but as the founder of IOTA, and as someone who actually chatted with you when you first announced Skycoin 2.5 years ago as I felt it was an interesting project, I feel I have to clear this up: IOTA announced DAG work back in 2014 and started work on a full implementation mid-2015 with early beta in January 2016. Since then we have had tens of millions of dollars transacted in the network and collaborate with several of the larges corporates in the world with a working implementation, so Byteball being 'first' is demonstrably fallicious.

That being cleared up, I would love to have a chat with you again to discuss some potential overlap.

Regards,
David

WOW i hope you contacted him..

These guys are BCNEXT, CFB creators of both NXT and IOTA...


skycoin is very interesting for sure.

both iota and byteball..

@LiskEnterprise

man, you've just started to post in this Skycoin BCT thread today.
So just to be sure, you are simply proposing a solution, right?
no need to "insist" by having your post in bold.

The best way to have a constructive chat would be to join the Telegram group.

I am interested in this coin and platform.

I downloaded the wallet and it is quite plain.

Is the only feature to send and receive coins?

Is it correct that the development mentioned within the last 150+ pages are all behind the scenes fixes?

Of will more functionality be added?

You can check the github and compile all the features individually.

Is Skycoin the most undervalued coin?
1) Uxto transactions like qtum
2) Data storage like sia
3) Meshnet like maidsafe
4) Decentralized apps like ether
5) New consensus algo
6) VPN like MYST
7) IPFS
Cool Decentralized web wallet

10) Great goal ("We have long wanted a more secure, open and distributed Internet and we’re glad to say that Skycoin is finally building it.")

Can someone give me some straight answers? I've been following skycoin for years but can't for the love of god figure out what is going on with distributions. I know there are ICO's but where are the details of them? How do I get involved? What is the price peg? Is there anypoint buying on an exchange after a pump since the ICO suppresses the price?

This one smells really damn odd. Just trying to understand if it's a straight scam or not. They also removed the link to this thread from website so... yeah

I totally think like you about it Wink
In my mind, Skycoin will probably be in the top five coins for the plenty advantages it have on the others. I've invested the third of my btc some days ago and now it's x3. it is just the begining !

Skycoin is a chain I would very much like to have bridged to Ark when SmartBridge is ready. It will provide a very useful secure and decentralized communications, storage, and compute layer on which to connect with Ark based applications.

Maybe we can talk to ARK - some interesting tech development going on there.  Cool

My approach to Skycoin is it is much more of an investment in the future than an investment to receive a return on, supporting a project I really want to succeed. It might or might not produce the kind of returns frequently seen in crypto, but that is not the primary motivation in this case.

That is the market price. ICO round three has not taken place

Is it known when round three will take place? And will it have the same price as round 1?

The valuation will be higher - you can check http://icocountdown.com for the dates.

How can the price rise when only a fraction of the ico has finnished?

The distribution model is non typical because the protocol itself is non typical.

The discussion led to making sure that Skycoin can be developed for at least 100 years approx so we are trying to make development as sustainable and rigid as possible. The aim is to make sure it will be developed for generations.

More users need to come in on a growth rate - meaning that Skycoin awareness builds and users can get access to the distribution at later times in it's cycle. Making distribution more fair.

Coins will be distributed from dedicated hardware/resource allocations to secure the network - decentralization is the utmost priority also the inherent security of the network through distributed computing.

There is no POS/POW on Skycoin so it means different models are needed to give the best method of distribution possible.

All these things will lead to extensive development cycles - great technology and fair distribution.

thanks for the reply. very thoughtful and edifying Smiley

It is much more subtle and nuanced than that and requires understanding the current forms of social control in society and that they are more about misdirection, counter intelligence, dilution and distraction than straight censorship.

very astute. completely agree.

well, that would certainly be nice.

i'm betting on it. literally.

All of these are going to force a lot money into Skycoin, Bitcoin, etc and anything else outside of control by these scammers, con-men and the human predator class running the "government" and corporations.

is why i'm investing heavily (for me) every week.

So the most important thing is for Skycoin is to be best in class in
- transaction time
- consensus algorithms
- scaling
- privacy
- security
- usability

We need to focus on communicating the fundamental technological innovations we made in these areas. The the applications and other things are a bonus. However, these will be very important for establishing a narrative or a pretense for Skycoin and for marketing to specific segments and building up a community.

marketing, yes. please consider talking with me and my team. we're an early stage firm supporting blockchain founders with marketing and other BD aspects. between the 3 of us, we have David Passiak who did phd studies at princeton on the great awakenings like the ones you described such as the civil rights movements in the 60's. I'm Marc Joseph and have an IMBA and MSW - a background that allows me to really understand where you're coming from on the elite's oppression and control stuff. And we have George Hwang, also an IMBA with whom we are putting together our so-called "Blockchain Speaker Series" as a starting point to give founders a platform for communicating their vision and purpose.

We'd love to do a call with you if feel we may be able to help with the all important marketing aspects of Skycoin Cool



Can you contact me with your details?

Thank you [email protected]

Also Telegram would be better and we can all talk there: https://t.me/Skycoin

I came across this announcement for Skycoin. Do those who have bought in think it's a worthwhile investment for other forum members?
