Totally agree, when we hit 50ish cent in fiat i will sell enough to clear my mortgage. They would be coins i bought to trade, not my stash for my future.

It will hit $10 and much more but I do see retirement in my future.

Depends on what you call retirement i would guess. I went to a 0 hr contract on the last boom, and have done very little âworkâ since.
If / when we reach $10 , well before to be fair, i shall travel this earth helping others.
If my life is that blessed it will be the least i should do, and will become my work.

If I want to quite my job thanks to MAID, I will have to wait until $50 or more

⌠I would end up âworkingâ more.
With my hands unchained⌠no stopping me being creative with code.

haha yes itâs all the positive talk and influx of Maidsafe Devs has me head scratchingâŚseems to have come out of nowhere. I thought we were just floating along for another couple of years, when David announces weâll know rough timescales within 2 months.

Mastercoin scammers from the ICO
Yeah, how dare they come out with more clarity and a path forward. Itâs almost like they want the project to be a success.

We all want success, clarity and a clear path forward and the team are delivering that. Having followed along since ICOâŚthere have been some points in time, where it appeared a launch may be imminentâŚclear talk of a launch by Maidsafe, which subdued. Iâm making an observation in which the buzz seems to have started to rise again.
Given all the innovation that has occurred since ICO, itâs hard to imagine how the Network could have functioned as intended without those breakthroughsâŚso as far as Iâm concerned they can keep at it as long as it takes to be awesome.
Maybe Iâm imagining, but they seem to be teasing something biggish coming up.

Perhaps I misunderstood then. You seemed skeptical about that happening, no?

No not sceptical, just conservative with the optimism due to the enormity of the task

I just prefer to think tomorrow Iâll wake up with a full working network and a $20 per coin price tag to go with it haha.

Your in the right thread for dreaming 
You might not know, but Maidsafe projected Safecoin maturity at 10 years post launch. So dependent on age itâs something to think about when cashing outâŚthese Safecoins will not be easy to accumulate if your a non-developer and âPay the Producerâ getâs canned.

You mean not easy to accumulate once actual network coins are swapped and used?

Iâm suggesting there will be no easier method of accumulating Safecoin, than buying MAID now. The potential of Safecoin to do work on the actual network may be way more than itâs fiat value.

Well I havenât been shy about buying so if thatâs how it ends up, I feel good.

So you should, itâs good that individuals accumulate as much as possible.

Good to know youâre just trying to find levelheadedness amidst developer clamor.
My sense is that this is literally the final stretch, no code re-considerations / tightening / refactoringâbeyond what is absolutely necessary, this time. The developers know that they canât wait for the code to be super efficient anymore, on top of the fact that theyâve finally laid down/considered practically all the possible requirements. This is the most practical & positive route now. Theyâve had all the time they can get for that kind of thing up to this pointâto where, if they do not have this specific shift in team focus (that which theyâve never yet had up to this point), then we will really fall into an infinite crevice (to be dramatic). The sheer fact of (at its core) it being an open-source project would have to carry the weight of development; i.e. no big pot of funds to propel too immensely forward. (Worst possible scenario would be if that does happen: people passionate enough about the project will continue codingâwith still available ability/ingenuity to gather yet more monetary incentive, since thatâs most ideal to speed things up. But I just like to ramble about all possibilities, at this point.)
I feel there will still be times of convolution, or even conundrum. But, now: with an exit plan â by having, well, an entry plan! Into new lights, immediately, to prevent feelings of discouragement. And, âŚthatâs pretty much all my thoughts!
