This is great news! The network will have a foothold to be further built upon.

Using training wheels for the toddlers first ride is the sign of responsible parents. Watch out though, they grow up so fast. Soon it’ll be denying requests, cutting your connection, slamming vault doors, and hanging with the wrong crowd. Letting go is the hardest part. It’s all worth it in the end though. Once matured, all of those headaches it gave you during its youth will be overshadowed by the enormity of its impact on the world. We can only hope people make it a good one. :v: :slightly_smiling:

Thanks for another great update Maidsafe devs, WOW this is going to be so much FUN. :stuck_out_tongue:

Teacher @dyamanaka will you make another great instruction video?

Preferably sing this in soldiers voice :ant:
“The SAFE Network will soon be up”
‘The SAFE Network will soon be up’
“We’ll ride this just like psycho ants”
‘We’ll ride this just like psycho ants’
“Left right”
‘Left right’

With self-auth, making your account is very much like making a brain BTC wallet right?

So if you make an easy or common login (ex: pin=1234 pass=pass phrase=phrase), then you may be sharing that Login with many other people who have used / guessed it as well? Just checking

Thank you for the update, I greatly look forward to trying it out and learning from the demo apps!

I appreciate this, and I’m sure many others do, as well.

Good luck with your tests!

Yeah, but it will be hard to do. So many combinations possible.

Username: username
PIN: 1234
Pass: Password.

I wouldn’t pick that one. But when you put a little effort in it you are good quite fast. And guessing isn’t possible I heard once. The network will provide a dummy when you start to request a log on and no personal file is there.

Right. Just wanted to make sure that’s how it’s working

Great update! Thanks @Ross! Building my server back up tonight. Can’t wait to do some testing.

EDIT: Will both Linux and Windows testing be available?

Very exciting news! I have a MacMini standing by, and can’t wait to participate!

I think so. Which reminds me, I think a Bitcoin wallet would be a much appreciated SAFE app… at least in the short-mid term.

Is there a repo for this “demo” app so I may watch development?

How long will each phase of testing last before the main network is up? That is how long is each cycle before a “reset” of the network and credentials and data is wiped? And is there any estimate as to when all this will be done and we’ll be ready for beta/launch?

As for my reaction to the MVP well it runs along the lines of something like this:

…followed closely by this…

Needless to say I want my maidsafe!

How much capacity will be available?

Should we prepare sample pictures or videos?

That sounds quite pointless.
You can’t connect to Bitcoin on the SAFE network.
And if we could, I can just post a portable wallet app on a public SAFE share and call it Janitor’s Bit Wallet.

Just a few Mb/Gb per vault AFAIK at the moment. I think clients will be limited to 100Mb or similar for now. These limits are false though and will be removed as we move forward, not too mcuh point uploading a ton as early tests will be fast and data dropped quickly I suspect (at least weekly). We will still run parallel networks and droplets will get deployed in parallel networks. I am not sure how much initially these networks will be linked for tests etc.

Of course upload a wallet :wink: JBW sounds not bad to me :smiley:

And I just had Quora crush on me the moment I needed a question answered promptly, and the japanese banks have started with negative interest rates. Safenet and safecoin can not come out too soon.
