Reminds me of mid 2017 when Bitcoin left everything in it’s wake and it took a couple of months for the rest to catch up a bit

Nobody’s here worried about Orchid Labs and their project? They have just raised another quite huge amount of money and they have much more visibility in the press…
No, I am not worried because it is a blockchain based project.
Actually most people don’t care if a project is blockchain related or not… They are looking for products that fill their needs. And I’m worried about projects that develop similar answers to the same issue but with much more financial and communication power.
I completely agree! They have to tackle the common blockchain issues like scaleability, transaction cost, transaction speed, energy consumption and so on…
There is only one project which tries to solve all these problems. So I am really

Yes you’re right, so far blockchain still have many limitations. But there are thousands of brilliant engineers working on these issues so I’d be surprised if those problems were unsolvable with blockchain technologies, maybe if it will be in a few years only.
Gartner Survey: 90% of blockchain-based supply chain projects are in trouble.
This only handles supply chain projects, but it again illustrates that blockchain has its restrictions.
No one still know if SafeCoin will be…

Bit of a leap in price but lack of competition probably doesn’t help things. So withdrawals pretty expensive for anything under good few thousand now

Nice explanation 
I also would like to refer to the interview with Max Keiser in august 2014 with David and Nick, where David caught my attention ever since by saying:
Bitcoin is very good for a public ledger, but public ledger should be for government and corporations, not for people.
(minute 3:20)
This is so true and it goes along with my slight anarchistic nature, because i also believe government and corporations should be held responsible for their actions

a blockchain simply makes no sense if we are talking about lets say a library of all porn movies. That would mean every full node would have to have a full copy of all of those. I am sure its in the like 10k terabyte range or more

I am sure the MaidSafe team is honored to be building out the perfect andyypants spank bank network . I mean porn does take up 30% of the Internets bandwidth, so I would say shortly into its launch there likely will be similar traffic for it, and likely some very upset porn companies when they realize they can’t stop copyright content from popping up. They will have to adjust and up their game I suppose.
I think some really huge value use cases for this network are resources that need to be dl’ed frequently and repo groups are tired of paying big hosting bills to support it. One such use case could be the iPhone jailbreaking scene for example. These are folks that host repo’s that pull in source code to help modify the iOS behavior/apps. How awesome it would be for groups like BigBoss(arguably the biggest iOS jailbreak repo group) to be able to host a repo on the safe network and folks upload their mods to it with 1 time put cost and then be pulled/updated and used by everyone forever with no month to month hosting fees! That is a pretty awesome win for use cases like that.
To stay on topic here though:
I see MAID is rising up with BTC right now, broke past the 16 usd cent!

man now is the time we see if that whale wall is really buying or not. I mean he ate 10 BTC and didn’t run away. I think he is just playing MM here while people are like kinda skeptical then when there is hype form fleming he will play MM on the other side.
Altholugh I did think of one alt theory and I am not saying its the most likely but is possible its a giant wash trade to make this average look good. Either way he is clearly into buying alot and that makes me much more confident then walls that have never been approached.
Yea… Feels like we are about to enter another price spike cycle. If you’ve loaded up at the lower prices - enjoy the ride up.
