Folks, I am not in the office and I am not in meetings. What I post here is my honest feelings of what’s possible. Whereas MaidSafe can create the native currency and … do everything, I feel it’s not necessary.
With the launch and transaction data available there is are possibilities for anyone to do that. Not necessarily tied to data etc. but create currencies. That’s great IMO.
I think some folk want maidsafe to do the currency and
and this is where, as a community member, I disagree.
Yes MaidSafe can, but they are not the only ones.
As a MaidSafe shareholder/employee/team member then maidsafe doing the native token and capitalising on that sounds great.
But my personal driver for the network has always been a network for the people by the people. Not a single company, not a single group, but as quickly as possible having many groups able to work/compete and expand the network.
I think some folk seem to be aggressively pro maidsafe and maidsafe alone, but I honestly feel the more that work on the network the better it is for us all. The more democratic it can be, the more powerful it can be.
Economically, and I feel this is a huge (massive) driver for many, then the key is network use and growing network use. The more folk using it the more money folk make from their tokens. So for those that are driven by profit then I am not sure it makes sense to demand some team with some name as the only ones that deliver that!
tl;dr
I am not arguing maidsafe cannot or will not do a native currency, they will do that. What I am saying is that I believe it makes no sense to assume any team are the only possible team to deliver the best currency. In fact some unknown team may create currency that just takes off and makes sense to also use for data.
It’s a lot like trying to up front a team to create the next app that goes viral. IMO it’s best to let everyone go for it and see what works, not put all eggs in one basket.
I hope this is more clear, but honestly I am at the point of not giving opinions here these days, particularly in relation to anything to do with money. It’s an absolute poison subject to so many in so many ways. It could be fascinating to explore possibilities.
