In retrospect, how do you rate your decision of switching form PoW (dagger-hashimoto ) to dPos? Was it good? Or if you have to ability to travel in time you would choose stay with ethash?
Lisk is like ethereum v2, if you though Bitcoin was congested imagine what eth will be like. The dapp platform separates dapps from the main chain. This means we can scale nearly indefinitely. Ethereum has many problems as well.

That is $20 per shift, I wouldn't count on that. SHIFT explodes this month up the top 50 ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) He used a metric that makes sense (market cap) and you chose on that's irrelevant (value per token). Look at things ranked around 50, maidsafe, siacoin, golem, dogecoin ffs. We will have a working product its a really important issue this project is trying to solve. noooo reason this project and coin cannot be $20/coin easy. it'll take alot but it's do-able for 2018. $10 should be easy as pie. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

First off, I'm wondering what type of behavioral incentives are going to be in place to incentivize growth of the SHIFT user base once it goes live?
Also, I've been following the discussion regarding what gives SHIFT tokens value, and I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly. I'm an economics guy without a strong tech background, so I'm going to try to paraphrase my understanding in very laymen terms, and I'm hoping someone can tell me if I'm grasping this...
For the sake of this example, let's assume speculation is not affecting the price of SHIFT. The price is only affected by the demand for the utility of the SHIFT token...
Tokens will be used to pay for functionality on the platform, like hosting. While the user base is small, and the token's price is equivalent to $10 USD, someone may pay for a year of hosting with 2 SHIFT tokens, with a price equivalent of $20 USD. As the user base grows, let's say the demand for hosting doubles, but the relative price of hosting remains the same in USD; $20. To accommodate the added demand, the price per token must increase by a factor of 2. So rather than the relative price of hosting increasing to $40, the value of the SHIFT token would increase from $10 to $20, and the cost of hosting would become 1 SHIFT token.
Am I on the right track here?

Shift team should really jump on the net neutrality news and start pushing a marketing campaign hard.

Sorry if my question is off, but don't really understand this...
Is shift like a search engine, like Google or what?

No, SHIFT will be used to host decentralized websites. Example: You made a website, uploaded it to SHIFT's Phantom dApp and it will be hosted on many servers (example:50 servers) and you can point your domain towards your Phantom hosted site thanks to the JENGA solution. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Also, such hosted websites are harder to DDOS and censor by the government (let them try to shutdown 100's of servers ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) )!

First they will release their new website (till end of December) on testnet and then we can only wait for the full Phantom release to be implemented on the mainnet, it needs to be stable. Here's the latest newsletter from SHIFT's team: https://www.shiftnrg.org/newsletter-november/#phantom

With the net neutrality situation the time for truly decentralized peer-to-peer internet is needed now more than ever. When the new website is released together with the marketing video explaining ipfs and shift, shift is sure to boom!

Sup folks,
pls don't kill me, but I've failed to figure this out on my own for the last hour. So I've just voted for 10 delegates which are now sitting under "my votes". Do I have to send them additional SHIFT in order for the staking to work? If so, how much? Is the share payout at the end of each month?
Sorry for all the noob questions, but it's my first time staking, heh.

Best to ask them in the Ryver chat in technical: https://shiftnrg.ryver.com/application/signup/members/Q3vvIv5azjNuFKl . They are very busy lately because of the obvious reason but still do answer from time to time.
