Ok, I had to reread that a couple of times. But that is just genious! You force the user to share some local storage for the benefit of the developer. Will that be practically feasible?
Sounds like an opportunity for the first of a long line of SafeGames.
Do I see that in the first year, or even 5 years of the Safe Network? No. It will take time to grow and integrate itself in the market. However, awareness about privacy of data is finally circling back around to where people are starting to care again. If the Safe Network is able to get just a few killer apps, mostly in the social media and secure messaging space, it could draw customers in to the network based on privacy and control of data, alone.
There are a few avenues I think the marketing team should aggressively pursue.
- SOLID integration and partnerships will get some much needed eyeballs on the project from some very important tech influencers.
- Privacy focused email/messaging developers. ProtonMail is starting to gain traction and with a big enough user base that if they get on board, it would be a huge win for the Safe Network. There are a couple other lesser known ones with still a few hundred thousand users, like Tutanota, that may want to get in on the ground floor.
- Content creators. Even many of the ultra-successful ones are simply fed up with Youtube, and Vimeo is pretty much a joke. Just a couple moderately successful creators mirroring their content on the Safe Network and promoting that people go there to watch it would be a huge win. Combine that with a Patreon-like app to fund uploads and the new Youtube could be born. If I’m not mistaken, pay the producer is slotted to be in the farming algorithm. I’m not sure how much this would generate for the content creator, for say, 1M views, but it would be interesting to be able to calculate those stats.

IANAL, but how can the law require you to delete data you are not technically able to delete because the user made it so?

Also who is the who that is supposed to delete the data.
Its like saying that a person carved some text in the rock face then is asking the earth to delete it.

Unfortunately laws like GDPR take a long time to pass. The previous EU data protection law was from 1998 - almost pre-Web. So it will have been drafted before there was much use of P2P technologies at least commercially. Hopefully common sense will prevail and amendments will be introduced sooner rather than later.

Will the Bulls be back for Christmas?
Hoping so if for no other reason than I want an end to the morbidity the Bears bring to the party (everywhere)
About a year ago we were ready to fly around the world to meet up… Bears chased all that away, getting bored of it now.
Tis the season to be jolly after all

A seasonal crypto bounce has become a bit of a tradition. Seems a bit too soon still, but maybe a wee bounce will come!

Calm down folks lets keep it low so I can still do some slow $200 dollar at a time accumulation every few weeks 
. Trying to get enough k’s of MaidSafe that a fiat USD price target of say $10.00-$30.00 per coin in the next 2-4 years means decent moon for me

Could be tempting to sell on the Xmas bounce, and wait for a fall to buy back in.
Except, that it would complicate tax issues?
I guess it depends on the size of the bounce.
How many MAID do you own, like 10, 100, 1k, 100k, …?
Just another pump and dump.

You just never know!
Prople will be saying that as we leave low levels never to return.
Its gonna happen at some point.
Lets be positive.
Tbh. Looks more like heavy accumulation to me.

That would be a fine present indeed. Today’s action seems to show that there is a lack of liquidity of available MAID that will make it very hard for anybody to acquire a significant position without driving the price up. Should lead to a rather dramatic rise at some point, I would think.

This is the whale buying before their planned pump-n-dump
They buy cheap first to have plenty of coin to sell in the dump
Then they start claiming its going to jump in price because of this or that (pump)
Then when its jumped in price because of all the FOMO and others trying to take advantage of the pump n dump the whale sells all their coin they accumulated (now) and the little they bought to start the pumping of the price.
I’m guessing they think alpha 3 is about to be announced. It would seem though that is still too far off for a successful pump-n-dump now/soon. So they may end up holding the coin till they can do a PnD

I wish them much success holding it down. I would like to keep accumulating as long as humanly possible.

All that surge in Maid buying appeared to be only on HitBTC - but the whole exchange/all offerings surged around 27% in trading volume over the last 24 hours while most other top exchanges posted red over the same period. If its a Pump-n-Dump it looks to be exchange wide. Pending exchange news perhaps, new owner or whale moving into just HitBTC?
