Have you heard of Flixxo? I was doing some research last night, and apparently it's an ICO utilizing P2P. How does it differ from UpFiring?

They're focused directly on video-sharing, whereas Upfiring allows for several different file types.

Any demo or github code? To be honest, it looks like a scam, without any real product, but want to raise 40k ETH, it seems a joke. Do your class first, don't fool people.

Check the Etherscan link on the homepage for live updates, and look at the stats on top.

Tokens not sold during the contribution period will never be minted, so the total supply will be less. 19% of the total max token supply is set aside for the team.

Yes, I had checked Etherscan. But you should have some stats in the website!

19% seems a lot to me! Usually the team percentage is way smaller.

I had some questions that got lost in the topic, can you please answer them.
I'm preparing an article on steemit about Upfiring and want to have all the facts.

Congratulations for Upfiting... I think this has potential to be huge!!

Most certainly I will be an investor, just got some questions to ease my investment.
Sorry is some questions were already answered, but I was collecting questions meanwhile reading the topic.

There is no information about the team. Will it be revealed?

This project will have a big weight on the developers. What is the current status of the app client?
What will be the milestones, and ETA's?

You say that all kind of content will be available to share, but how is this shared?
This is being compared to uTorrent like programs. Will there be sites to share the .torrent like files?
Torrents are often associated with illegal content. Could this be a problem?

Just found out the bounty programs. This is good because help spread the word about Upfiring! I just found this project!
But I think you should have a Signatura Campaign also! This forum is the biggest way to spread the word!
I really think the twitter and Facebook campaigns are not that good, because people outside cryptocurrency may see this as spam!

Will there be a bounty for blogging? I usually steeamit about my ICO's investments.

Are you considering partnering up with some already established crypto's? Like for instance a privacy coin.

One question I have, is there any way that files that aren't often seeded will have a higher reward for seeding? Nothing more frustrating than trying to download something obscure on utorrent and finding there are no seeds.

Can you disclose who you've chosen for your legal counsel?

I can't (yet), until they release a public statement about Upfiring (likely an analysis of whether or not it is considered a security - of course we strongly believe that it is not, and do not intend for UFR to be used as such)

If it were classified a security it would be subject to much more regulation?

Is this right?

Still curious about this, what would happen if it were considered a security?

I don't think they really incentivize it much like you plan on doing either, not super familiar with it though.

Since you get tokens for seeding content, will the higher demand stuff have higher reward to incentivize seeding it?

Yes, and the reward is split among all the seeders of a file. You get compensated each time someone downloads a file you are seeding, so if the demand is very high you'll get rewarded every single time it gets downloaded.

This reminds me of a private tracker I used to use. You would get points for seeding and uploading, and they even had a bounty system for highly desired content. You could trade those points in the store, mostly for digital stuff like titles and such.

Do you think there will be a bounty board so people can see the kind of stuff is highly in demand?

This is not in the initial development plan, but it's definitely going to be considered as we see what kind of content people are interested in. For now, the amount of UFR required will be standardized based on file-size.

Yeah that makes sense. Do you plan for UpFiring to be more of a community than most current public trackers?

Or is it going to be more decentralized?

Do you see UpFiring being more community based, or more decentralized? Just trying to get a feel for the platform.

They have a small roadmap in the whitepaper.

I can vouch for this project. File sharing has been for a very long time been centralized. This has led to many of the file sharing sites such as utorrents to be frequently shutdown by the government in addition to many suits. also many people share files yet they do not get compensated for it. The Upfiring platform is a peer to peer decentralized file sharing app that will solve some of these problems. decentalisation of file sharing will ensure free file sharing with no government intervention. Also, those who share files will also be incentivised with UFR tokens.

Its simply a great project worth looking into.
