When it comes to non-crypto natives, concepts like Indelible could be modified so that anyone can handle the crypto aspect on behalf of their family / friends, so you wonât need to on-board many people to crypto, just enable crypto-natives to give friends / family access & arrange payments informally with them.
The team also has plans for abstracting away the crypto using some of the new protocols emerging that enable simple credit card purchases etc, so thatâs being worked on and should come in time.
For now, the crypto-native audience is already a huge market for Autonomi to start with. None of that crypto stuff is a barrier to those people. What they need is apps that add value to them with a good user experience⌠once that is in place, with a growing crypto-native user base, more effort should go on barriers to non-crypto-natives to broaden the reach further.
So, while crypto is a barrier to some, itâs not the biggest factor holding back this project from gaining traction, and the roadmap shows several approaches to lowering the crypto barriers in time.

I assume by âcrypto-nativeâ you mean people who understand and interact with cryptocurrency regularly? Most people who upload data to the cloud, anywhere on any platform, whether businesses or individuals are not âcrypto-nativesâ. I doubt even most systems analysts, software developers / programmers are âcrypto-nativesâ either. This is pie in the sky thinking.
âthe crypto-native audience is already a huge market for Autonomi to start withâ
maybe for trading tokens, not for using the network. 2 very different interest groups.
Yes.
No, itâs a beach head market that faces less friction due to the usersâ knowledge of using crypto products, and also a market who could be utilised to bring the network benefits to their families & friends who wonât want to interact with crypto.
It may be a relatively small market, but it is probably enough of a market for Autonomi to experience significant growth within once it has an offering thatâs ready to gain traction.
Itâs a market thatâs driven Filecoin to $1bn market cap & Arweave to $230m.
It seems like common sense to initially market to a lower-friction audience while the UX is improved to reduce friction to appeal more widely.

Pump and dump comes to mind. Pump the price up, get people with FOMO buying then the pumper sells.
But with the low liquidity, I am not sure it would work fast enough for the pumper to make enough to risk the buying

I doubt the intention is a pump and dump, but there is âherd mentalityâ. Most followers of the project know that itâs current price is near all time lows. Seeing the price spike initially from a small whale whoâs just buying a stake at the low price, has definitely driven others to buy in as well in the hopes that itâs going to keep moving up ⌠and that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Eventually it will level off and then likely go back down again.

Or maybe all the sellers are waiting the next year to not get the taxes for this year

update on the shareholder claims and selling. We have seen a slowdown in recent month of selling, most of it is from one single claims whale. As to the recent price spike, I think this is the bull trap I was expecting much earlier, it will taper off once the buyer has accumulated enough and more of the still massive outstanding ant is claimed

I agree and suspect those maid tokens are mostly lost forever. This project is really old, and itâs easy to think that the bitcoin walletâs associated with those old maid tokens are no longer in play - either because they are simply forgotten and/or access to them is no longer possible. Also HitBTC wasnât releasing Maid tokens for a long time, itâs possible they lost access to them as well and all of those are locked permanently.
No idea about shareholders - I canât imagine those are in any way locked, but could be many of them are forgotten.
Just a FYI, I couldnât really find historical pricing data on MAID/EMAID/ANT from coingecko and coinmarketcap, in terms of the complete picture between all 3 tokens & aliases since 2014+. I maybe looking at the wrong places on those websites, but I am not really sure.
For what its worth, I did find a old csv where I had consolidated all these data points before, so I am really glad I still have that locally, and its useful for tax purposes (cost basis), and other charting requirements for any future application (development).
This is how the chart off that looks like:

That csv could maybe be of importance to many on the forum and beyond, any chance to upload that one?
Sorry tobbetj, I donât want to be responsible for accuracy or inaccuracy here, and follow-up questions with folks on what the source of the data was, between the 3 coins and data provider that was used, and the method that I used (between clicking the button on website and using their API by my personal account via API keys months ago).
None of that metadata is listed in my old CSV.
According to Coingecko:
CoinGecko permits the use and display of its data for general purposes like a website, book, or research report, provided you attribute CoinGecko as the source
. However, their policies impose strict restrictions on re-uploading, caching, storing, or reproducing their data in a manner that competes with or infringes upon their services, especially if you are using their API.
According to CoinMarketCap:
CoinMarketCapâs policy strictly prohibits unauthorized
scraping, copying, or automated downloading of their content, viewing for personal use is allowed, but commercial use or data extraction for other products requires explicit written permission or a paid API subscription (like their Pro API) for authorized access. Re-uploading their data elsewhere without license is a violation, as all content is owned by CMC, so using their data for other platforms or products needs their consent.
I wrote the above post as a FYI to the community that data maybe missing from these default data providers through common methods, unless I am looking at the wrong places. Folks are welcome to investigate further if need be. I realize ticker data is public domain, but I am also not a lawyer.
