I will not run around telling everyone to convert their fiat to bitcoin because bitcoin is volatile. Waiting for a currency that is not volatile or the bitshares bank may do for now.

Well you could start develop something for the SAFE network.

when does Maidsafe actually release a product???
Same ETA as ethereum, end of 2014. |
|
|
|
|
Fun fact: Maidsafe is dirt cheap atm from sellers wanting to get in on the ether presale.

No cap? Send as much as you can? With the rate this is going i forsee atleast 20000 BTC.
No immediate returns guys, wait 10 years to see something significant
20000 btc marketcap would put them in 10th position. If you believe they will have a higher position than that at a 20k btc pre-sale, then that is profit. |
|

|
|
I also need to remind people that it is in everyone's interest to prevent you from investing if they invested in the pre-sale, it means they get a bigger slice of the pie. So be careful with believing in any ones posts.

I think some posters here need to do more research on their own, ethereum is not new, it's been in development for a long time now. There is plenty of information on the net about the developers, their past projects, etc. They are some of the most popular and well-known people in the cryptocurrency realm.
What most people, including me, who are used to throw-away type altcoins and have grown so skeptical and cynical, don't understand...is...ethers are not coins. They are tokens to be used to "rent space" or complete any action on the ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is a programming language which allows developers to build applications on a decentralized internet.
For example, you have a website...your website is hosted on somebody's server. But if you have a website hosted on Ethereum, your website exists on the blockchain. It's decentralized and updated through the mining process.
For those who think Ethereum is a coin, its not. It aims to be the beginning of the next generation of internet, where the entire internet exists on a blockchain, everybody pays a little ether for every action they make online, and the whole net is supported by mining ether the same way the "bitcoin ledger" is supported and updated by mining bitcoin.
There probably will be no immediate or short-term gains. But it might be something you can buy and give to your children and grandchildren.
That's a very bold statement to make that there will probably be no immediate or short term gains. You can't justify that. |

I can't find any information on the mining
Will it be PoW?
They are still working on the algorithm but it will be POW or POW/POS. |

Let's say they are able to gather 10K BTC for 83.5% coins. It's 12,000 BTC market cap, 11th place on coinmarketcap.com.
Ok, it looks much better. Could bring 200-300% profit short term.
If you want to make your calculations more accurate... take into consideration that at the end of the first year there will be an additional 26% ETH created (total ETH distributed through the ether sale * 1.26); this process will continue the following years as well. Doesn't the ether distribution go down every year. |

I read a post made by one of the storj cofounders on the maidsafe google group development forums and he came across extremely arrogant. He also mentioned that storj will be developing applications on the maidsafe protocol: "am the co-founder of StorJ.io, which is an open-source software company developing applications for the MAIDSAFE protocol". Does this mean storj is just a maidsafe storage application that tries really hard to hide this fact? https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/maidsafe-development/RZfKNFe3Dk0 Even if they are using anything maidsafe, how is that "trying really hard to hide this fact" when the Storj guys have been openly been saying something in the line of that they will incorporate any code/projects that makes sense? That's the beauty of open source. If you don't like people using your OS code for other OS projects, then don't bloody hell release it as OS. Well going on the storj website i see no mention of storj being an application on the maidsafe protocol. My initial impression was it was developing its own network. The least they can do is mention maidsafe and give credit where credit it due. |

This is another copywrighting coin with a grand IPO. This is a Mastercoin 2.0.
Does anyone think this will work out? A lot of these copywrighting coins end up being ponzi schemes ran by wealthy investors who are begging subsequent investors (bagholders) to come in to buy their coin and it almost never works as nobody wants to contribute to a get quick rich scheme.
The people who invested into Mastercoin (which had a huge PR campaign and a huge developer team) would had made more money buying Doge, NxT and other coins. The same is true for Maidsafe, all the balloons who bought Maidsafe would had made way way way more money off Darkcoin.
Funny coming from you the biggest NEM fanboy of them all, promoting your own get rich quick scheme. In regards to Maidsafe, i was following them before they even considred adding safecoins to the network, i am interested in the technology and the implications it has on the future of privacy. There technology and time in the business of decentralization is unmatched. There is no spurt of emotion that will change that fact. If your interested in only profit, maybe start making your own coins so you can pump and dump them, its not very hard. |

i would, should, could but i won't.
why not? I'm interested in shares in the bitshares bank but its too late for that. Maybe ill pick some bank shares when it goes on the market. I also don't think bitshares has features which are significantly better than its close competitors. |

give us a video demo and tutorial, thanks.

I am thinking about investing in AGS but i am reluctant to join the circle jerk fest of applications which are designed to make the shareholders rich.
|

I really like Bitshares and Bitshares AGS.
You guys should also look into Swarm.
Those are IMO the best two IPOs I've ever seen on these forums.
I wouldn't touch SWARM. Lighthouse is a crowdfunding platform that is being built on top of bitcoin at the moment. There is no room for SWARM and its 2% fees. |

Well i was expecting bitcoin to reach much higher values this year judging from its previous year performances.
Oh darn, the get rich quick scheme failed. Better luck next year! I only wrote that comment because i was getting paid for every post i write due to the advertisement in my sig which i just took off now cause it may cause me to write about shit I don't care about. |
