Same buyer as seller indeed, who doesnt want to let go of its Maidsafe position, passing it on to himself, hoping to create panic and catch a couple more Maidsafe, in order to:
Primarly pay commission?
Create fear to buy some more MAID, hoping that people will feel afraid enough to let go of their coins at THIS point in development?
Create fear so hopefully he can close its short position that has got him hanging upside down by the balls while Poloniex keeps banging on the door?
I can’t wait the launch of Fleming! I think this will be THE “come back” of Maidsafe. A lot of OGs had a bag of MAID before and was chilling the project on Twitter. Hopefully this will bring back lot of old and new community members.
A comment on github made it sound like things can grow quite large rather quickly, not having pruning right away won’t be an issue? I can’t remember what the issue was even about exactly, just curious.
It will be an issue, there are a few ways to do it, a crude way will probably be initially used, otherwise it’s just a huge memory leak. @Jean-Philippe and the team are on it and aware
Oh yes Maxwell will be upgrades, efficiency (pruning of PARSEC) and finalising the farming algorithm, basically. So Fleming is a “here’s a decentralised new Internet” Maxwell will be “here is a better one” and then we are in Beta when Maxwell seems solid and agreed.
I have been looking at governance recently and especially how we can decentralise code. Probably will create a blog post/forum thread, but my thinking is very much based on automate what we can. So I have been looking at cargo-crev as a code review tool for SAFE and apps. That is nice as we can review the app at a specific version etc. based on it’s address on the network as immutable data (so safe from corruption).
That may cover apps and SAFE maintenance a bit more but leaves new features/changes to algorithms etc. up in the air. As a start it may prove useful then using a similar WOT type system to evaluate polls or suggestions on potential feature upgrades of core. We have a long road to go there, but a a start I feel the time is now to sort this out.
Oh god this is an insane deal. Crypto drop across the board, new crazy dev announcements every other day. What is even happening is yet to be seen. At least it finally broke me out of my predictive mental cycle. Buying opportunity ahoy! People should really be looking at the top100 list more than the price, 'cause damn if people can’t see this above the # value it’s now at then I don’t know what to think.
My theory is that 100BTC worth of MAID changed hands based on an agreement about price, off the exchange. And the remainder is being sold at market price??
I still don’t understand why people like seeing the price of maidsafe crash. It’s bad for the image, it’s bad for us investors. Surely you want the price to go up???!
It looks like the whole alt coin market is crashing.
Maid at the moment doesn’t look bad relative to any other coin.
It does look like a bargain though.
Investors and pure speculators just joining the party do not care about the project because it is not in their job description.
Supporters of the project, in their pure form, in contrast would prefer MAID not to be existence in the first place. But unfortunately funding is needed to get things off the ground and so they have a love-hate relationship with investors.
People who are partially in both camps at the same time must feel this love-hate relationship internally. These people could first hope to buy in at a crazy low price, then contribute like crazy to the project’s success and hope that the project succeeds and price sky-rockets so that they make lots of money at the same time. But less money than the pure rational investor, and imperiling the project more than the pure supporter.
(Where are you on this scale? 50% supporter and 50% investor? I think there is a fudamental trade-off so the total needs to add up to 100. )
