MaidSafeCoin (MAID & eMAID) - Price & Trading topic (Part 2)

Anyone got some data or screenshots or a link to this timelapse? I was talking to someone yesterday about recent developments here, and was claiming “oh yeah, MAID used to be in the top 10”, but I never actually knew the specifics.

What number was MAID at its peak? What was its longest period in the top 10? Etc. People seem to care about facts like these, so it’d be good to know them.

I think I have it saved on my phone somewhere maybe. Let me dig a little today and see if I can’t find it. Actually I’m almost positive it’s in the JAMS Twitter timeline. @JAMSplayer on twitter

This is already great, I can now say: I saw a screenshot where it’s 8th, and can provide you with the screenshot. Excellent.

Getting back to just number 10 would be a 100 and something times increase, of course, but keep it to yourselves

Dec 7th 2014 #5 MAID

Think it dropped out of top 15 by about May of 2017
When the market was officially flooded with shitcoins.

MAID now = $70,687,041
5th place = USDC = $29,965,061,446

That makes roughly 424x. Oops, definitely don’t tell anyone that, as these are simply fun calculations :desert_island:

I don’t think MAID will ever get back up there.

(SNT on the other hand :boom:)

I don’t think MAID would ever have lower price than SNT… Or do we have a way to know if everyone has converted their MAID into SNT?

But rank goes on market cap, rather than token price. Maid is only a proportion of the overall supply.

Really puts it into perspective. Sounds like the scope of YouTube right now: shitvids via hype algorithm to generate hype views. It’s why people from back then know this project’s coin will increase some day—since it’s just a giant project that had many many delays without a product due to its scope, while knowing the market was flooded with shitcoins—yet even they are more shaky than they should be, since the power of algorithm is so grand that they say, “Well, since we’re in the 300th places, maybe we really are falling from grace?” When that’s not the case.

Closer to launch and conversion Maid should climb on the charts.

Since my “fun” calculations recently, I couldn’t help feeling I had forgotten something… what if MAID got to Bitcoin’s level? I was half not doing it because I think it’s a silly game, but I couldn’t help myself.

To recap previous calculations, if MAID goes from current market cap to 10th place’s current market cap, it’s ~110x. To 5th place it’s ~420x.

And to current 1st market cap it’s…

~7300x. Those are some ri-donc-ulous numbers :smile: @Southside will be able to buy Scotland at that stage and set it free

There is crazy potential… but why stop there?

I’ve been in Bitcoin since 2013 and still rarely use it for practical purposes. Hardly anyone uses it regularly, and many people simply aren’t interested.

The Safe Network works well, takes off, and great stuff is built on it, it is something that I’d likely use multiple times a day (e.g. browsing, messaging, payments, backups, gaming etc etc).

The benefits of freedom and self-ownership of data are things that will appeal far beyond the current crypto crowd, so potentially many more users might regularly engage with it & hold SNT.

So, it could be hugely more useful than Bitcoin in people’s everyday lives, as well as appealing to a far larger audience.

It also could be better better money than BTC due to faster, easier transactions, and demand should be more stable over cycles due to demand for data applications & storage constantly increasing vs speculative value being the major driver.

If it’s used more regularly than BTC by a significantly larger number of users, works better as money, is less energy intensive, and has broader utility, it’s not impossible for it to achieve a large multiple of Bitcon’s current market cap in my opinion… though I can’t say how likely it is!

At 10x of BTC’s market cap, Southside could buy Scotland, set it free, AND cover any fiscal deficits that may follow! :smiley:

Admit it - you have been consuming MSM products again, haven’t you?

There is NO fiscal deficit - there is however English accounting and a cowed compliant media.

The biggest issue is that you have to onboard and offboard from/to fiat to be able to buy/sell real world goods. Even gateways are doing this for you.

Until SNT is its own economy where people are accepting SNT for payments of goods then no one is buying much using SNT. It’ll have to go through some gateway to be buying or selling goods until then.
