I’ve used some forum members their ammo ā€œDiversifyā€.

#Things to do to help the equity sale

###Wikipedia

Friend told me: I can’t even find them on Wikipedia.

I didn’t even notice, but I often go to Wikipedia myself to check if something is ā€˜worth’ an entry to gauge it’s value. So I do understand this is a thing.

Anyone good with words and some free time should consider to volunteer starting a Wikipedia article.

It’s hard. It needs to be

  1. Factual
  2. Objective
  3. Not sounding like a sales pitch
  4. Sources, sources.
  5. Multiple authors

I tried writing an article (about something unrelated) a few times in the past. They always got deleted. :disappointed_relieved:


###Twitter

Security advisors and authors on the internet talking about hacks, censorship, DDoS etc. You can send them a tweet asking if they know about MaidSafe and/or tell them how it might prevent these problems in the future.

Spot on - I just noticed this yesterday,.Wikipedia one of the first places I’d check when doing background research on a company. The presence of a well-written Wikipedia page is a trust signal, which could be vital in tipping potential investors into pushing the button. I notice that all the other comparable decentralised networks have an up to date Wikipedia page.

They should have lowered the minimum investment to something like £500. Otherwise small investors like myself are still locked out. Oh well.

What time zone is using BNKToTheFuture? When will end 26.September? Did I miss it already, or not?

Likewise. Maidsafe is an intriguing company and different in all the special ways that count, and I really like, trust and respect the management and the forum too - passionate backing is really important in this sort of venture. Call me tight though, but to me in its current state of development it’s more Ā£500-intriguing rather than Ā£1000-intriguing. Ā£1000 is a significant psychological barrier (especially if you have to explain it to your wife) and given the leap of faith required I feel it’s pitched a little high. Ā£500 a punt and I might buy two :grinning:

Gmt afaik. It’s maidsafes time, not bnk. So it’s the next tier already.

Afaik they wanted to Lower it but bnk didn’t. Nick posted about it in this very thread, iirc.

Nice momentum building here… great to see

The podcast was amazing, and I’m gonna release my notes of it soon. I want to maybe do a quick video or audio to boost investment

I’m investing, it says 2ish bitcoins, can I do this in a few transactions if I have to, like ShapeShift? Or does it need to be all in one clean bitcoin transaction to register?

And it’s good that you can do your own refund, if that happens, so you don’t need to worry about sending from your private key like in crowdsales

I don’t see them accepting part investing, so I gather you would need the minimum before investing in MAIDSAFE

Yeah I meant piecing it together from lots of BTC wallets. I kinda worded it badly I guess

All set! That’s me! Just invested!!

Wasn’t going to go through with it until I heard @fergish 's new #34 interview with @nicklambert just now.

All the ways that MaidSafe can profit from SAFE are truly amazing, I’m trying to write down all the profit methods I heard in the interview but it made MaidSafe as a company sound like such a great investment for anyone who believes in this technology at all

Remember to do your (photo) ID verification (see near top of topic for details & discussion)

Without that you cannot receive anything back, be it dividends or results of BTC mining or refunds if investment fails to meet minimum.
