Two years ago I did a rough estinate in this post: SafeCoin value at launch [Speculation] :
You have to consider that MaidSafe is disrupting several industries and it can change the internet economy as a whole, it is the ultimate paradigm shift.
Computer Security companies, Backuping services, Hosting, CDNs, cloud storage, among others will become obsolete the day SafeNet goes live.
The Computer Security industry is worth $60 billion dollars.
The Disaster and Backup Recovery industry is $5.8 billion dollars and it is anticipated to grow 20% the next 5 years. (There has been a 300% growth since 2007)
The CDN industry is worth $4.2 billion dollars
Cloud storage industry is currently worth $18 billion dollars
In total we are talking about a $88 billion dollars from this sampling alone.
Let’s take this as a reference and what would happen when all these industries become obsolete and all that money gets poured into SafeCoins?
It is an educated guess, but 10K% is quite conservative.
Based on this I calculated that the fair price by getting those markets disrupted is 20.5 USD per SafeCoin .
That’s what I believe to be a bare reasonable minimum, I haven’t included the demand for SafeCoins as digital cash, tokenization, the eventual demand of the Safe app market, distributed computing, OS integration (ie. genode.org ), etc…
