SafeCoin has literally nothing in common with MaidSafeCoin.

So., erm, Maidsafe is working on a decentralized internet. If your Safecoin has literally nothing in common with them then what benefits over that are we talking?

And I am not sure Monero (Which is not Bytecoin) has failed just yet as stated in the OP. It started less than a week ago.

I am not sure about anything else as you say that there is much more 'benchmarking' and 'debating' to be done.

I'm not trying to bust chops but there is some information that seems not true or not accurate or however you might want to put it...

My question would be, what benefits does maidsafe provide? Unless laundering Mt Gox coins is considered a benefit, I don't see any. We already have a dozen different decentralized internet coins, none of which are as good as the already existing TOR network, or the TOR network's competitors. And, maidsafe isn't decentralized. If you look at its structure, it's actually centralized. So.....a better question might be what advantages maidsafe has over the existing internet. I don't see any.

My second question would be how any of that has any relevance to Safe Currency. Maidsafe does not actually provide any additional security measures. In fact it is far less secure than bitcoin. I realize that SafeCoin is a catchy name. I understand it helped their IPO. But .... they have nothing at all to do with Safe Coins. And they're not the originators of the Safecoin name either. They didn't even have a safecoin domain name until 4 weeks before their launch.

Monero is awesome. I only mean that it failed in being a CPU-only coin. And to be fair, you are correct that it hasn't. But BYTECOIN did fail. Last night. And Monero is a cloned fork of BYTECOIN. So, it is inevitable now. The belief is that it was Botnets. I do NOT mean that MOnero has failed as a currency. I have high hopes for it.

With regards to your concerns about lack of information, or untrueness...that's fair. I expect that from anyone who knows what they're doing.

The trust and the belief won't be there until after the launch and the code release. And rightfully so. There is no IPO, I'm not selling a promise, like so many others have done.

The features either interest you, or they don't. If they do interest you, proof and code and all that good stuff will come. I just want awareness at this stage, not allegiance or investment.
