What I think will determine the ultimate price of Safecoin is whether the SAFE network has a network effect. Network effect - Wikipedia
So Bitcoin’s price has risen so much because it had a head start as the first viable, distributed cryptocurrency. Its network effect was that the more people started using it, the more useful it became, and so the more people started using it, and therefore bidding for it. Other blockchain currencies were started, but they are separate spaces, and a more-or-less cumbersome series of steps must be engaged in to move value from one blockchain to another, and people usually have no incentive to do so.
It’s obvious that the bigger the SAFE network becomes, the more useful it becomes and therefore the more attractive it becomes for people to join.
It seems obvious that it is functionally isolated from its would-be imitators, such as someone who takes the GPL-licensed code and rebrands it as a new network. That new network’s coin won’t be recognized in the SAFE network, and if Safecoin is recognized on the new network, and the routing works between them, then it isn’t actually a different network. The new nodes would have to comply with the existing rules.
A fork of the code (call it ALTSAFE, by analogy with alt-coins) would have to offer some compelling advantages, just as in the case of alt-coins that hope to gain some traction.

I’m a lot more ambitious than you. DropBox alone is $10bn, never mind all the other webservices it could replace, oh and don’t forget the black market ;). If it all works as we hope it will then I would start by adding three naughts to your top end and work upwards from there 
Nah, Iota already exists, they just don’t have a proper GUI yet, and that’ll be ready in the next week or so. They are also chainless consensus.

It’s worth currently what the speculator wants to give for it. Nothing more, nothing less. Every price above $0 is inflated, a bubble price. Sorry to be so straight forward, but we, small and big investors alike, have invested in a dream, a fata morgana, a vision, that still has to come to fruition. Believe me, I’ve invested quite heavily in this dream. But currently I’m trying to be very realistic about where we stand: We’ve got a token that will give us a headstart on the future Safe Network. We’re getting closer and closer to the MVP, but please also take into consideration that 95+% of crypto projects have failed, are failing, or will fail. Paycoin, anyone? So, fact is, there is nothing substantial happening on the Safe Network yet. Every price calculation now is a wild guess. And wild guesses include wild price swings…

very realistic,
I also know this is a project investment,
hope everything goes fine but nobody knows what it will be some years ahead,
0% chance to fail for safenet 
… 2awesome2fail 
“failing” would mean it would become just a dropbox with some extra-features

I was speaking to a good friend of mine last night who lives in New Zealand, and hasn’t spent a penny on cryptos, but has a very good understanding of what is going on this space. He told me, when he mentions Bitcoin to others, they cringe and their first impression is that it is something of a pyramid scheme for geeks. When he mentions MAID, they instantly get it. Not only do they get it, but they get the potential. Really, that’s what we are all speculating on. The promise, or hope others will get what we already see. I was encouraged, because he reiterated something somebody in this community said earlier. If MAID does what it says on the Tin… then people will come. This is what I am waiting for. Everything else is just noise.

Anyone know why some coins are marked “offline” and not available to trade on shapeshift?
Maidsafe and several others have been unavailable for several days now.

i think is fake, so huge wall
yes, right at top, 7M… 1600 btc!!! cor blimey. those big ones are rarely real and placed right at top 
How big is that order? I’m on a mobile phone and Poloniex is lagging like crazy…
2500 btc, normally is around 1000 or less
It was also real last time , when it bought 300 BTC’s worth of MAID and 1000 btc’s
It was more than 1600 btc and now 1579 and the wall as been moved forward so I think someone really want to acquire a huge amount of MAID
