You have to complete various social tasks, for example, join Telegram group, or follow the project on twitter or some other social network

They do this to raise awareness for their project. It’s free advertising, man! And also to create a community around it. Because if you give some coins to a user, he’ll get involved to make it bankable, you know

Indeed, these companies collect all the data they can in exchange of a few worthless tokens…

If youre lucky you may receive some really really free coins I heard some platforms give away some tokens to the users holding some of their coins, just like that, for free!

Professional Web Hosts vs Consumer Devices Weighing Up Costs and Environmental FootprintFollowing Frank Sylverster’s overview of the environmental aspect — crucial but normally overlooked in storage systems — we’d like to reinforce our promise to deliver a more energy efficient system with some brute facts. It goes without saying that renting disc space from the inveterate hosts instead of amateurs reduces the risks that are inevitably associated with the consumer devices. If we take power efficiency which is calculated as storage volume to electricity consumption ratio, the equipment used by hosting professionals proves far more efficient than consumer devices (see the table below). To weigh up the carbon footprints, we took an average HDD with capacity equaling to 1 TB. A brand new personal computer might have up to 4 such HDDs, although it’s not the case for the vast majority of PCs. Generally, they have only one HDD (maximum two) HDDs. However, we give consumer devices a head start in this example taking the number of HDDs equaling to four. At the same time, a hosting server normally contains up to 30 HDDs, but let’s take a modest one with 12 HDDs. The power of PC is around 300 Wh; for hosting server it makes nearly 500 Wh. I want to make a caveat that these are the ballpark figures I’ve got from our technical team, so they reflect the big picture, but if you want to find exceptions, you definitely will. As we are looking at decentralized storage systems, we also take into account that the PC of a system participant must work all day long (yes, that’s what is meant by an uninterrupted service!). So the monthly use of energy will total to 300 Wh * 24h * 30d = 216 kW (for all the 4 HDDs. That is 54 kW per HDD). For hosting server monthly energy consumption makes 500 Wh * 24h * 30d = 360 kW. And that is for 12 HDDs, or 30 kW per HDD. Given that 1 kW costs about $0.12 in the USA (that’s also an average, see the caveat above), we get the total costs of energy per month, which are then divided into 4 and 12 correspondingly. Overall, the energy consumption per HDD and consequently the cost of storing 1 terabyte speak in favor of the professional hosting equipment. As we’ve arrived at this conclusion, This cost effectiveness means much more than , but also takes less energy for storing the same amount of data. https://medium.com/@Market_space_/professional-web-hosts-vs-consumer-devices-b749d88f9080

How do you think, based on the interest of the project on the part of investors, will you reach a hard cap?

What are the roles of the advisors? Do they really do smth? Or they are just...to impress investors?
The answer is 'they really do' So far we've covered in-length only Mohammed's contribution, but more publication on our Advisors and their role in the project are coming soon thanks Looking forward to it

Thank you all! I'm also a newbie here and been wondering about airdrop! So now I need to keep watching the ICO's ANN for the announcement of airdrops
There is no airdrop concerning the coin whose thread you are writing in. Nothing in the first post speaks about airdrops or free MASP coins. But how safe is it? I didn't participate yet, but read some article that 90% of all airdrops are scams
As for me, I have not been scammed in airdrops, maybe because I choose them very carefully
You can't get scammed if you get coins for free ... However you will be scamming someone if you sell them to them and the project proves to be a scam.
Now, can we please stop with the eye-bleeding quoting and the completely off-topic posts about airdrops?

Sorry man Thats my fault Just saw guys talkin about airdrops and decided to ask... No problem. It just seemed that people got carried away about some airdrop that is not happening and the thread was only full of that ... Anyway, I try to quote only the relevant part of a post so that the thread stays easy to follow.

Big thanks, man, but a quick glance at your posts told me you might be suspended for spamming It may be slightly risky unless you are a Community Manager for all these projects

Can someone register plenty of google drives, dropbox profiles etc (using VPN for instance) and enter as a host? If you don't filter out technically, just deposit, who will you know?
