It will be a better project than Storj and sia. If they make a deal with two companies, they can come to nice places.

I already asked about partnerships... If there is any or if there are conversations in the way. But my questions keep getting lost in the topic. (Maybe I'm touching any sensitive spot )

What wallet do/will we use? Im not comfortable at all with using MEW.
You can use any ERC20-compatible wallet. I recommend using a hardware wallet like Ledger/Trezor.

What is the exact date of unlocking the tokens?
I believe it will be November 7th assuming all goes as planned. We have to distribute the bounty campaign tokens and then finalize the crowdsale contract.

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.
The rewards will be based on file size. We may implement something like this down the line, however. When it comes to storage, will your architecture function similarly to that of Storj? Not exactly. Storj splits up files and stores them on a bunch of different hosts, allowing hosts to earn coins for renting out their storage space. With Upfiring, the files will be stored on the seeders devices, so your files aren't being distributed to the a bunch of different peers in the network - only downloaders.

That is a very distinct difference, thanks for the clarification.

Will the Upfiring protocol be available in "standalone form" or solely as an implementation in a proprietary software client?
As far as I can tell, Upfiring is far more comparable to Gnutella than it is BitTorrent. Is there any more detailed information about the technology than what is offered in the whitepaper? I'm highly wishful in regards to the future of incentivized P2P file-sharing but I have my doubts about what would essentially be an incentivized Limewire.

My feelings exactly. It has my full attention, but I'm also hesitant.

It seems borderline absurd to me. I don't see how it really benefits either of them.
