i just suggested another option for paying for the storage 
anyway - like my thought or not - your choice ā¦ iām not the one to decide anyway 
ā¦nobody ever suggested to place āunnecessary impedimentsā afaikā¦
Exactly. Any impediment placed is necessary to prevent spamming the network. Just because an impediment exists does not mean itās unnecessary.
Yes, I think many of us are concerned about how the initial store of Safecoin will be distributed and how one pays for it. When you consider the possibility of Safecoin being priced on the open market at hundreds of dollars it brings up many issues. To me this seems to be of upmost importance to the overall prospect of Safe Network. Maybe when divisibility of Safecoin gets sorted out it will shed some light on possible solutions. The conundrum is that if Safe Network (and Safecoin) turns out to be immensely popular and the price of Safecoin soars, will the initial algorithm of how to provide Safecoins to new users still be valid and, if not, can a workable adjustment be made to the algorithm in a kind of dynamic way? Would be interested in hearing what David has to say.

Oh? I thought until final release it would only be TestSafeCoin.
Iām not talking about preventing one or a few users from spamming the network, there are other, more effective, ways of doing that. Iām talking about limiting the number of users by unnecessary requirements. If all, or most, new users might be good candidates to spam what you suggest might be useful but one shouldnāt cut off his nose to spite his face.
Excellent point. Most individuals will connect to SafeNetwork via their phones and farming by phones will be limited to times when they are charging. Someone should be able to farm enough coins overnight for simple puts the next day.
ā4, When I first started with bitcoin, there were faucets where you could get 2 BTC for free:) Faucets for Safe coin can be created.ā
Back then that only meant two pizzas 
ā5, What prevents me to create a web page on safenetwork, where people can get like 0.001 SafeCoin for solving some tasks? There can be many ways how to giveaway some coins to friends. There can be official fund in early days where people can send donations and other people could claim their small piece of coin. Such official fund web can be as homepage in browser. The only problem is to prevent someone from claiming his coins with some automatic tool.ā
I really hope something like this is planned. Again, appropriate implementation of divisibility is crucial.
If there is nothing gating new user creation than I can write a bot to create 1M new users per day to spam the system. Obviously 99.9999% of new users are fine. But Iām not. Iām a bad hombre, and I know how to script.
If Iām not mistaken, the bot problem has been addressed in other ways. Surely a different issue.
Well, look up if thatās true and get back to me. Since the network is distributed, which means different account creation attempts by my bot will be handled by different nodes scattered all over the world, I have no idea how it could have been addressed, other than by demanding safecoin, but I look forward to your reply.
Excuse me? Not attacking anyone, simply engaging in constructive discourse (see what I did there? ). Understand, we do get new users on this forum who are not as informed as you. Iām not speaking at you as much as following up on the points you make with, maybe, a different perspective.
You answered your own question. 
Nonsense. Donāt play games. You started this, so you go fetch the answer or admit that new account creation must use safecoin.
Never said it didnāt. Just trying to consider how the details of distributing SafeCoins for initial uploads would work, given the probability of increasing values of SafeCoin on the open market.
Dead cat bounce or healthy price recovery?

At least CryptoKitties seems to be a success. It will also be available in China, although it is now the year of the Dog.
I hope it will be something like this (but then mainly for MaidSafeCoin): Bitcoin Doesn't Give a Fuck - Embed
Feels pretty healthy, I thought we had the dead cat already and now weāre just seeing some steady gradual recovery.
I dunno. Everything is so dependant on Bitcoin and turnover is nothing flash
Foe crypto in general it is rarely ādifferent this timeā, and I wouldnāt be surprised to see new lows and a prolonged flat line for a couple of years.
However, Maidsafecoin has been walking to a different beat since the crowd sale. Looking at Maidsafecoin charts looks like we are due a bounce, especially relative to Bitcoin.
Who knows though? The current Bitcoin price is still way more than I expected this bubble to spike at, never mind form a floor.
True, but this time it actually is a bit different given we havenāt seen the full impact of institutions getting involved yet
Is there much evidence of institutional money actually coming in? I heard a lot of people hyping that idea, but suspect the derivatives/futures markets would be more appealing to institutions, which donāt actually buy/sell any actual Bitcoinās (it is just a tracket index).
