>we put 9 raspberry pi in a box pls buy coin

you really believe this crap? lmao how gullible

its orange pi desu

skycoin top 5 eoy

Don't be a cucking fuck and get on Sky before products are released. Once everyone sees what Sky is capable of they'll be pissed they didn't get in sooner.

it was designed that way.

The consensus algorithms is not computational intensive so you don't need high range boards. It's designed to scale horizontally with cheap components.

8 Pis and there will be a version that will be a fridge size with up to 256 nodes.

Each nodes are separated because the blockchain architecture (fiber) is designed to be scaled horizontally. So the 8 nodes could be running 7 completely different blockchains (each blockchain is one ICO on the platform. also there are 30 ICOs in the pipeline)

Just from the test run of 500 official miners they are going to get 4000 nodes deployed around the world.

20 skylet here, I'm never gonna make it am I

why would you use their version of the internet if everything is on the blockchain?

believe it or not i don't give a shit because i know all you vpn people will come crawling to it when the testnet shows that it works.

it was leaked on the wechat group that the private testnet is faster than their paid vpn service already.

Skycoin internet 3.0 sir synth is a god sir plz buy altcoin sir guarnteed best coin on the market buy now discount on cryptopia sir

The blockchain is only there to incentivised the network.

p2p networking is nothing new and that's why we have tor.

The problem with tor is that there isn't enough incentives for people to become a node as they are not getting paid.

by layering blockchain underneath a p2p network, suddenly you can have an economy because incentives are aligned for everyone.

people will happily forward traffic no longer for altruistic reasons but because they get fucking paid.

also the data packets are encrypted + you only know the nodes ONE before and after where it is hopping so you have no idea what it is in it, no idea who forwarded and no idea who requested it. you just need to forward encrypted data and get paid. meanwhile you can use VPN yourself for free if you hold skycoins.

lol it's literally so awesome you question if (((they've))) funded the FUD campaign we've been seeing all over the place

this shit is going to overtake Bitcoin

screencap this

dont touch cryptopia. c2cx is much better. they are going to release a new wallet very soon to help fix the cryptopia issue.

Cryptopia is a 2 man team from new zealand so they are pretty fucking useless.

This. Goes way further than any other coin and marketing is picking up big time

Is it still possible to get on the list for the testnet?

already got mine bro

as far as i know, everyone can use testnet and become a node. however only the whitelisted people will be paid.

so you can use the testnet and get specialised VPN for free when it launches.

damn son get that shit assemble asap. the test net is launching soon. they said early april.

Can you get paid after testnet? Or arn't they implementing new hardware for that phase?

>trying to avoid the watchful eye of the government

I for one welcome our CIA overlords

only whitelisted nodes will be paid for testnet. non-whitelisted nodes can access and use the VPN but will not be paid for providing bandwidth.

Obviously in mainnet everyone will be paid for uploading but for testnet they are still working out the economical models.

I actually would put up one if i didn't have to buy for 1btc

its nice to have such high barriers of entry into decentralized internet, isnt it?
yeah you can use my skynet but pay hefty for it you poor fuck

they premined all the coins and now give you a few for running a VPN

no thanks

>people running vpns on raspis in their 2 bedroom on 500k/sec upload is faster than dedicated services

kek

nobody needs to fund anything. anyone who's been into crypto for a while sees this for the scam it is.

>im surprised all you people aren't all over this shit already.

Did /g/ do it?
They were talking about making a mesh intranet.

>implying

weak af

Give me 10 basic reasons why a normie would buy this

List them. I hold this coin since ICO but I don't have a clue why

I already made a lot of money but now I'm gonna shill it to my SM following (over 2 million+ people)

Give me the basic rundown

You can build your own. Also, you pay 1 btc and then the rest of it goes to you purchasing skycoin. The skyminer it's self doesn't cost 1 btc. You get the skyminer and all the skycoin

Yeah fuck that.
>no easy way to buy SKY
>costs 8-9k to host a node
How is this ever going to take off?
How is this any better than Substratum?

Synth is the mother fucking rainman. Bow down faggots. Synth the savant spent 6 years locked in a dungeon, ate rats, drank his own piss, all so he could build the new internet, web 3.0. Skycoin will dominate comcunt, the FANG faggots, and take a shit on the top 100 with rainman tech.

lol you fell for the autist meme
synth is an experienced companyflipper who is in the vc scene for more than 10 years
brags about how 40 mio are not enough for him to retire
go figure


also this shitcoin already did an 5000x (or 50000x?), what else do you expect?

I don't like this coin because i asked technical questions and got radio silence.

It smells like a scam because they are selling a proxy, not free internet. You would neead powerful wifi antenna or copper/fiber.


I mean the miner looks cool, but you can literally make a giant pi cluster just using standoffs and a baseplate. The plexiglass and aluminium do nothing, and pi's need no cooling.

research it yourself faggot. not doing your homework.

bought 200 sky for under $700
hosting 8 nodes for under $600
fuck off fag

That's nice but it isn't on binance
and you still didn't tell me how this is better than substratum

Cryptopia is excellent. And they're far from a two man team these days user. I'm predisposed to loathe kiwis, but they are better than most.

dont know what substratum does nor do i give a fuck. Skycoin is scheduled to be listed on big name exchanges already, hence all the fud to buy cheaper. buy the rumor sell the news.. im sitting comfy tho so dont feel the need to justify shit to you

Skycoin makes you your own ISP, Substratums still uses controlled ISP's so if they find out what you are doing they could just shut you off

I think skycoin is one of the most ambitious projects out there. If they actually achieved what they wanted it would easily be a top 5 coin.
Or even set up the internet mesh in a city or small country.

But would it work?
I don't know enough to know if it's actually possible yet or if they are just betting on future tech.

ERC20 token that doesn't even have a beta yet should not be compared to Skycoin
