Ye they pay per click. The stats are showing up for me now and they seem pretty accurate.

I have also signed up with this service and have seen no stats for 4 days. My site does not have a large amount of traffic, but it would be nice to at least see that their software is recording the impressions and any clicks that do happen.

I think if the cost is a little more than current storage services, there will still be a market for this service although much smaller. If this network can provide a cheaper option then this service will take over. Even if the cost of having storage on this network is significantly higher than other services there will still be a small group of users who will continue to use this and since this is an open source and community hosted network it can adapt over time to potentially reduce cost by possibly reducing the amount of redundancy or improving the algorithm in another way to make it more efficient. I think the price $2/month/TB Not sure dough. Time will tell Went through some of Shawn's posts earlier, and remember one where he mentioned that EMC charges $3k/TB for its cloud storage services. Huge gap to play with between $2 and $3k, IMO. Google Storage charges about $1.99/Month for 100GB and $9.99/Month for 1 TB and Amazon provides similar prices. I doubt EMC is charging that for only storage. $2 a month for 1TB would be very competitive.

Food at the grocery store. This is the only thing I buy from a store regularly.

I am very interested to see where the market puts the cost of 1GB of storage on this platform once the background complexity is abstracted away and users only see a Dropbox type storage solution.

Quote from: MrTeal on January 01, 2015, 07:14:04 AM Just let this die. The guy has no intention of building a miner or a farm. This is all just lame backstory for funding loans for his cloud mining "operation" or actually starting a future ponzi cloud mining outfit. I agree OP probably will not be able to accomplish what he hopes to but I still find it interesting to hear about some of the knowledge needed to accomplish this. This information would not be easy to find using a simple google search and maybe somebody may be able to use some of this information in future.

Quote from: hungergamespro132 on December 30, 2014, 01:40:02 PM am i only one who cant find any bets on this site No you are not the only one. There have been none for three days since I began checking. Maybe they are off for the holidays or maybe nobody uses it so they have not put a lot of effort into adding the lines. I was trying to get some XCP to see if I could figure out how to write a bet. It seems they call it a 'feed broadcast'. Quote from: virtapayseller666 on December 30, 2014, 01:26:35 PM i have some XCp in my wallet around 0.25 xcp but they charges fees in bitcoin every time to send any payment Yes you need small amounts of BTC to make a XCP transaction which is why I think Ethereum should be a better implementation of this. though, I am impressed with what these guys have done so far.

on: December 30, 2014, 12:58:28 PM

Yes it is a great platform for bets. They seem to be creating the ability to do everything Ethereum can do except it is attached to the bitcoin blockchain which costs extra BTC and causes a lot of extra data on the blockchain. Counterparty seems to be far ahead of Ethereum in creating this environment, but I think if Ethereum can produce what they are promising then that will be the better platform. By the way on BetXCP where you buy XCP from Vennd.io they sent my bitcoin back and did not send XCP, so I guess that service is not working at the moment. I guess they are not getting much action and are slacking of on the XCP betting thing. At least they took the time to send my BTC back minus a small tx fee.

Quote from: ticoti on December 30, 2014, 02:12:38 AM so this keeps the bets on the blockchain? or how this exactly works? I believe it is on the blockchain. In the counterwallet you can create feed broadcasts that I think are the bet contracts. BetXCP usually has some of these contracts created, but there does not seem to be any at the moment. I have not found documentation online to find out how to write these contracts. I am trying to get XCP because you need this to create the feed broadcast.

Quote from: ninjaboon on December 04, 2014, 07:08:01 AM Did anyone make a BTC > XCP trade on BetXCP yet? I have just made this trade. Did it work out for you? It has not for me yet.
