SONM – ICO begins = Site crashes

[Urban Crypto]

As the ICO for SONM is about to begin, we have prepared a Profile of the company.

SONM is a decentralized, open source structure where users can buy and sell computing power while building a market profitable to both.  SONM uses fog computing, which unlike existing cloud-based computational systems (Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and others) which use a centralized system where they utilize their own servers and computational power to achieve the same result.

Fog computing is defined in Wikipedia as:

An architecture that uses one or more collaborative multitude of end-user clients or near-user edge devices to carry out a substantial amount of storage (rather than stored primarily in cloud data centers), communication (rather than routed over the internet backbone), control, configuration, measurement and management (rather than controlled primarily by network gateways such as those in the LTE core network).

The internet backbone can be defined as the use of strategically interconnected computer networks and core routers on the Internet.  While the bigger cloud-based computing companies use their own interconnected networks, SONM uses a different approach.

It is working now.

There was a bit of a controversy in the beginning as a thread was opened by one of the former team members claiming that they did not pay him and kicked out from the project and from then we now have all these mess,some thing is wrong with the project or someone is trying to tarnish the project,with these sort of uncertainity it will be really difficult to be successful.

Not yet, SOMN will start to distribute the coins only after the ICO end.

It's clear that the ICO madness is in full effect, it's just the site getting too much traffic and hence not being able to load. All those ICOs get bought in seconds. BAT got sold in seconds, Bancor too, all those ICOs... its crazy. And there's still Civic and Tezos to come, which will get sold fast as hell too.

I think this is due to influx of investors and other persons who wants to get more info about the ICO's. We know that SONM has a great project also, that is why the community is eager enough to be part of the said good project.Hope they fixed it already, more investors are waiting.
