MaidSafeCoin (MAID) - Price & Trading topic (Part 1)

I haven’t seen any great volume since the Polo decision with US customers. Has anyone else seen anything?

think we are all seeing the same thing. I know my volume (which was only a small percentage of it) is not very high right now. Was aggressively buying on top of that 1300 wall but now higher prices, US market leaving, the unfreezing of MAID with that loan… I am just kinda sitting on my hands to see if we are stable here or if there are gonna be much better buy ops soon.

Same but a little bit different. Was buying on top of the wall but after the loan announcement decided to sell some part of my position. Especially with Flemming who knows when. Seems not to be clear what will be part of Flemming and what not. Guess they have to figure it out first. Now kind of checking polo too often :sweat_smile:.

Weren’t we all expecting a dump by US holders of Maid? Looks like it didn’t happen or they found another way around it. The easy way would have been to transfer to private wallets and Hodl.
Looks like Polo was a non event

It did happen but the buywalls at 1500 and 1300 held.

The turnover doesn’t back that up

I keep a history of maidsafecoin balances via https://api.omniexplorer.info/ask.aspx?api=getpropertybalances&prop=3

Poloniex made their announcement about spinning out of Circle and removing US customers on 18th October.

In that timespan approx 25M coins have left poloniex.

Just thought this might be interesting to some people in this topic.

edit:

15 Oct: 15860 addresses
6 Nov: 16175 addresses

Difference: 315 addresses
Using some dubious assumptions, the average is approx 80K MAID withdrawn per ‘new’ address.

Thanks Mav, I for one would be interested in the ongoing monthly summary and being tech dumb wouldn’t know how to get them. Any chance you could update going forward?

Hope everyone’s sacks are full.

Looking at the roadmap,

We probably don’t have that much more cheap buying opertunities before the hype of an MVP launch.

I am not so sure the prophecy of the Fleming release price pump will be fulfilled without a professional marketing team. It will eventually catch on cause it is just too useful to not. Just the grass roots way is going to take more time. I would expect it to be more of a gradual ratcheting up over months rather then a big boom right away.

If we could port or create a mapping and communications app that could aid Hong Kong protestors it would give the network publicity by aiding in the struggle toward freedom. This would be replacing the app Tim Crook at Apple took down. It would also cause the Chinese market to hear about SafeNet for the first time in ways we could not pay for.

Such apps will have short lifetimes, before they too, are taken down. I fear that any generic SAFE app will quickly fall victim to this. That can be forestalled somewhat, if apps that are certain to draw the gaze of governments use SAFE as the back end, but maintain their own individual identity.

Once an app appears on SAFE it won’t be possible to censor it. Once published, the app and it’s code are there forever.

Don’t think it would be a good timing to attract enteties with almost unlimited power and resources to disrupt technology.

ya I was kinda thinking it would be better if we focused on freedom enhancing apps that do it in other ways besides haha screw you government there is no way to stop us. Of course as the community grows there’s gonna be people that take that approach. But ya lets wait til we are really unstoppable before we pick big fights :stuck_out_tongue:

Sure. I was thinking of phone apps. If the generic SAFE phone app is linked to activities that anger a government, it will be removed from the app store.

Android people will be able to side load it, but iphone people will be out of luck. But, apps that use SAFE for their backend will be whack-a-mole. Apple removes one, and four more will pop up in it’s place!

That would be great imo. It shows more organic and stable growth that gives technical analysts and investors more confidence rather than seeing it as a garbage pump and dump chart that only a mother could love. We should be grateful we aren’t a 2017 ICO project that have nothing but all time lows.

Maidsafecoin is like waiting for the singularity to come.

Both are lofty goals, but Maidasafecoin will only take order-of-magnitude 1-10 more years vs. reaching Singularity 50-500 more years, which is quite a difference.
