SONM Q&A session (January 2018)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYUo3cLtrZw&t=Q&A timestamps:
- When SONM is ready in August, how do companies buy SONM to buy computer power? Via exchange is costly in fees, so will it be possible on SONM network itself?
- Is there any plans to integrate Paypal yo buy and sell SNM tokens?
- What about platform for Windows not only Linux?
- What the TOP-10 companies with which you would like to conclude a partnership?
- Why you are better than Golem?
- Can you create the biggest mining far in the world?
- What HW should I buy for nodes, Xeon, or Ryzen? What do you think DDR3 RAM would be fine, or there would be bigger demand for DDR4? Will be Ampere, or Volta supported?
- Recommendations on the GPU - Nvidia or AMD?
- Comments on DADI
- About the previous Q&A and TOP-10 exchange listing
- Have you considered competing in Kaggle and other machine learning competitions to advertise your technology to the machine learning community?
- How successful was the performance of the MVP Testnet?
- Would there be higher monetary gains per unit processed for offering a larger dedicated computing pool ?
- Will there be SONM-level support for enterprise features: failover, replication, snapshot/backup, load balancing? Will it be able to run 100TB "monolithic" DB?
- The end product will be apps for sale/purchase of capacity? As it would be simple for the average user?
- What about Electronic Government based on SONM?
- Let’s say I want to leverage your network’s computing resources to run augmented reality applications (which requires near real-time processing). Assuming that your network has the resources to support the application locally and can meet the low-latency requirements, how does your network guarantee that the processing will be done by those nodes nearest to the requestor in order to meet the latency requirements?
- If a customer wants to use SONM for botnet, then task will be stopped when he send illegal task?
- Announcements and marketing plans for 2018
- About the dividends.
- What are you going to do if somebody runs a virus code on the Worker?
- Ethereum network becoming more and more slow and expensive. Woudn't be better to move SONM to IOTA, ARK or a platform that hasn't mining?
- If SONM is partnering with enterprise storage companies for cloud based solutions then don't you think decentralization concept is at stake?
- How will you found the project over the next 10/15 years, once ICO founds run out?
- Do you have a forecast about when could you have the first income from core business and when could you get positive free cash flow?
- Can you tell us how many customers are using & supplying computing power?
- Do you have any new relevant customer who recently got interested in the future SONM Marketplace?
- Will be some requirements on the internet speed a provider of computing power must have? Lets says a consumer takes computing power from two providers at the same time. Then can you make it work in an efficient way ?
- If a provider shut down on purpose (e.g. he is a competitor) the pc and the consumer do an important task in that case what will happen?
- Are already working on the graphical interface for the Marketplace?
- Your competitors use public roadmap, where all investors could see progress in realtime. Can we do the same?
- Is the use of SONM limited by the development of APIs on Cocaine? How will people be incentivized to develop these APIs?
