Any spoiler to share about the incentives for the pitch?

"There are a few additions and announcements being planned to increase awareness as this funding round progresses."

Every Xanadu Maidsafe server is uniquely and securely identified.
Every Xanadu Maidsafe server can be operated independently or in a network.
Every user is uniquely and securely identified.
Every user can search, retrieve, create and store documents.
Every document can consist of any number of parts each of which may be of any data type.
Every document can contain links of any type including virtual copies ("transclusions") to any other document in the system accessible to its owner.
Links are visible and can be followed from all endpoints.
Permission to link to a document is explicitly granted by the act of publication.
Every document can contain a royalty mechanism at any desired degree of granularity to ensure payment on any portion accessed, including virtual copies ("transclusions") of all or part of the document.
Every document is uniquely and securely identified.
Every document can have secure access controls.
Every document can be rapidly searched, stored and retrieved without user knowledge of where it is physically stored.
Every document is automatically moved to physical storage appropriate to its frequency of access from any given location.
Every document is automatically stored redundantly to maintain availability even in case of a disaster.
Every Xanadu Maidsafe service provider can charge their users at any rate they choose for the storage, retrieval and publishing of documents.
Every transaction is secure and auditable only by the parties to that transaction.
The Xanadu Maidsafe client-server communication protocol is an openly published standard. Third-party software development and integration is encouraged.

Definitely no ominous parallels here....

Ontopic please. This is getting boring in a serious topic like this.

No server, no blockchain, am I correct? If maidsafe will have a beta or official release in next year, the price will be... 0.001 btc.

when is the next pump scheduled for?

For those interested, we've seen a load of updates today in the Maidsafe repo on GitHub. This is one of the most important ones:



Appendable data is a form of data which can be edited by anyone. So what does this mean? Well let's put it this way. If you work with a server (like websites) you can write a reply, change it afterwards and more. Think of PHP, JAVA and all the great apps we use everyday. As Maidsafe doesn't use any server they had to find a way to make this workable as well. And that's exactly what they did with structured data like appendable data and more. They also created an API for all devs and app-builders to work with. So what could be build with this??

• Forums
• Blogs
• Social Networks
• "Google docs" where several people can work on the same document
• Websites that allow replies

It's actually dynamic data without servers on a fully encrypted P2P-network  . So on the Alpha 1 network everyone can publish a static website. But my guess is in Alpha 2 every devs can create dynamic websites as well like forums, chats and more. The devs also promised a SAFE Email app in the coming days. This will probably use this "structured data" as well.



So lot of great stuff coming.

Here's a list with all the latest repo updates from this friday

Seems the team is on fire with the new hired devs.

Data has to be served to users from somewhere.  It won't magically appear from nowhere in the client.

Just because you nitpick about terminology doesn't mean the resemblances to Xanadu are [edit: NOT] uncanny (and damning).

Good luck solving too many complex problems in a v1 product.

Yes, of course data has to be served from somewhere. Just like BitTorrent that even works without servers (DHT) and Bitcoin (no servers, just nodes). We went over several testnets where we ran Vaults from home. Nothing to prove here, it already works. A known problem is "data integrity" which means a chunk stays on the system even if it's not requested for years. But the devs are working to fix this. And next to that they just delivered SAFE Mail which is quite amazing as it's a fully encrypted P2P email system.

Great times for SAFE, and I'm glad you still post in this topic because I know for sure 1 day you'll see the magic of this all and actually try the system  . Although I advise you to watch the video a few replies back and test the SAFE Mail today as it's quite an accomplishment what they've build.

The SAFE Beaker Browser is a dedicated browser for The SAFE Network. It won't connect you tot the HTTP and HTTPS internet. It does connect you to websites (safesites) on the SAFE Network.

This is how URL's look on SAFE




The SAFE Beaker Browser runs on Windows, Linux and Mac.


SAFE Beaker Browser dev update

Safe is one of the most reliable projects in crypto world. A lot of years of development, I'm sure, will bring great results.

Nice broswer, what's the core of it, chrome core or ir core? And is it really safe?

I think it's based on chrome. But a lot got stripped off. The normal Beaker Browser is able to connect to the normal internet. The SAFE version isn't. The SAFE Beaker Browser got sponsored by the community and Maidsafe.

Any particular reason why maidsafe coin price declining ? It had a nice rise but now has been consistently dropping for almost a week? 

[OmegaStarScream]

It's normal. For the moment , people are trying to make profit by trading and those coins have no actual use as the Alpha release doesn't include the Safecoins .
Once the official release , you will see a huge increase since would buy them to use them instead of making profit only.

The lower, the better, I want to buy more below 15k sat, I even want to buy at 5k sat, but it is unrealistic goal.
