Thread like this will be posted daily, starting today.
Joshua Brooks
Heavy are the bags of Pajeets.
Ethan Gray
>Blockchain connect HEY HEY HEY
Carson Wright
Can't do better than a 2nd grader?
Chase Garcia
Can someone explain to me the difference between this and Elastos? Elastos is an OS, but also has some features that sound NKNish unless I'm misunderstanding.
Easton Jenkins
The difference is that NEO global capital doesn’t back ELA and it does back NKN.
Cameron Wood
NKN is built on top of TCP/IP, everything what is on the Internet stays, but your data is decentralized: no one can track you down (like facebook or google), you can make a use of unsused bandwidth of other people in order to speed up your connection - intelligent routing, and ISP or government cant simply throttle connection to certain services, websites, etc or say what you're browsing... The idea is that ISP will be just providing connectivy without being able to control what you're browsing.
you'll earn NKN by providing your unsused bandwidth and when you want to use NKN, u pay with NKN...
example... you want to stream high quality video while somewhere in a city but dont have enough speed... you open up NKN app and it automatically routes you through Nodes around you to the Internet providing you high bandwidth. Simply in the future, you wont be looking for free wifi in your area, you will just pull up and join NKN.
Jayden Hill
I don't really think anyone needs what ELA, SUB or SKY is doing... they have gone too far and probably wont accomplish anything of it successfully...
Dominic Reed
Da Hongfei is an advisor and investor in Elastos though.
Seems like their Foundation is made of people who are not even engineers... NKN has top tier engineer and research team. Currently 20-25 full-time employees and 15 developers/researchers.
Thomas Foster
Yep total scam... buying more right now
Angel Richardson
Cool. Will NKN also be able to provide hosting like AWS?
Tyler Carter
Who pays for these trades to pajeets? Developers? Or idiot OP thinks that his daily threads will make pump for coin?
Sia/Filecoin will be used for decentralized storage in the future, NKN for the decentralized data flow (decentralized Internet, while staying on the Internet of course) on the Internet and Ethereum/NEO for smart contracts.
Gabriel Murphy
It sounds good, too good, that's a project which will never succeed it's vision. I invested a small stack of neo and will sell for NEO when this will moon . It will probably moons once but long term it's too ambitious to complete.
Austin Williams
it's already working... this is not over ambitious like Skycoin or ELA, this is actually real.
Evan Ross
they've been working on it since 2016 and they work with Diffie Hellman and his Cryptic Labs (Diffie is known for all computer scientists, he's an invetor of public cryptography - you know without him there would be no cryptocurrencies or secure connections like we use now).
Jason Walker
Give me the link to the app which will let me browse Jow Forums anonym and I will drop 1000 neo in.
Aiden Fisher
that will come in August (public testnet anyone will be able to join and try it)... for know it's private testnet (running nodes on Google Cloud, you can try simple chat app in use-cases they added recently). preview.nkn.org
and on their Medium u have also the text explanation
Logan Richardson
Gimme some use cases. Real cases. Nobody needs a blockchain to borrow bandwidth for streaming a fucking video. Gimme the real deal.
Real anonymity? What happens if people use it for child porn? Messaging? It's allready possible, even with bch. What value give this to the normal internet user?
Landon Ramirez
All Chinese will no longer need to pay for VPNs... just use NKN
no one can control or inspect what's being routed through NKN and you get faster internet while using it thanks to smart routing
David Stewart
You can relay packages through nearby NKN users for a faster internet connection. The real use case is that ISPs and commercial businesses can sell bandwidth to people for NKN. Apparently they have 2 major ISPs that are very interested in this.
Logan Collins
this will basically make VPN obsolete by making it expensive, unreliable and slow.
Adrian Lopez
didn't research but this sounds sort of like substratum - any thoughts?
David Wright
there will be no need to use TOR or VPN thanks to NKN, people dont even realize the magnitude of this thing. Also people will be able to pay NKN on their website for example with paypal or credit card.
Xavier Martinez
Ok forgot about the speed/bandwidth thing, that won't be a problem in the future anyway. Forget about big data like video's you want to stream or download, there are easier methods to do this.
Does it provide TOR like anonymity with more speed? That would be good but still the target group would be too small to profit from it. Tell me why my uncle who has an iPad and an iPhone and doesn't do criminal stuff, living in a developed country with high bandwidth would need it. What advanced, would he have?
Aaron Parker
no ti doesnt, completely different... substratum is trying to create "a new internet" not accessible from the current internet... totally different thing and I dont see why any would want to use SUB in the future.
Adrian Baker
yes it does... TOR and VPN has cons... it's slow, vpns are expensive and unreliable, can log your data... tor has malicious nodes... none of this is possible on NKN, it fixes it.
Camden Gray
NKN is basically the next coin used widely by criminals... because it fixes all the problems of TOR (onion) and VPN
Levi Morgan
So basically, NKN is a better VPN, right? That's what I get from your answers
Isaiah Baker
it's a tool that decentralizes the Internet that we use every day so that ISPs become just providers of the connectivity, it takes governments and ISPs the power to harm net neutrality, packet inspection. Also websites will be no longer able to spy on you by tracking you. And your internet will be faster.
Ian Diaz
Ok I really like it and might use it to buy weed but that doesn't mean it is profitable to invest in the token at all. You would need a big, a really big userbase to profit from it. That will never happen. No normie ever uses a VPN or Tor of even know what it is. NKN s userbase will be alot smaller.
Its nice really, but not worth investing in it.
Thanks the discussion bro's
John Wright
This will x50 by eoy
Angel Williams
well, this will be used by big cable companies like AT&T or T-Mobile, because they will profit a lot from using it, they're already in talk with 2 biggest ISPs in the US, it doesnt rely solely on individuals. So your argument is false.
Parker Butler
Screenshotted user. Look for it on Jow Forums next year. It’s going to be like that screencap or the guy who said ETH was a scam.
Kayden Mitchell
because what do big ISPs do with unused bandwidth? nothing, it's unused right now, they will earn a shitton of money.
Jace Phillips
Big cable companys will provide anonym access to the internet so people can buy drugs or share secret data and also profit on it. Dude what are you smoking?
Lucas Brown
wanted to add... shitton of money and on the other side, strenghthening NKN and making a world better place, which is great marketing.
Hunter Turner
I guess what you've been trying to do all the time... and you miss the point, you were trolling all the time, please don't waste other people's time... I presented facts that they're in talk with 2 BIGGEST CABLE COMPANIES in the US (which are also ISPs as u might know)... and those are facts.
William Powell
It will probably moon like I wrote here. It's a short term investment. The idea is worth alot. But the product will never succeed.
Ian Sanchez
no, this is very long term investment, not short term. You're talking bullshit into potential readers of this thread.
Jeremiah Davis
now go back and invest in your stinky linkies with scammy $32M ICO without whitepaper and KYC.
Josiah Watson
no normies use VPN...
basically whole China uses VPN... you deluded linker.
Jason Collins
i meant this... sorry, bad link to the post
Camden Fisher
I'm serious, sitting in front of switcheo and discussing with you. In talk means in talk, nothin more. Just think about AT and T selling access to TOR. Think that is realistic in our world? Do you think the government and intelligence agencies would just let them do this? Comon we live a complete surveillance world.
Anthony Phillips
I'll screencap you and see next year this time.
Hunter Wood
Are you a brainlet? My entire office staff uses vpns at their homes and they are dumb as rocks. Normies are indeed using vpns
Colton Bell
that's basically the reason why NKN will succeed... NKN doesnt need approval and cannot be stopped. it's like if u wanted to stop ethereum or btc
Julian Ross
u used wrong link dude... i said that basically whole China uses VPN... to counter that yellow man's plain wrong "argument" and lie that no one uses VPN or tor
Noah Cruz
No, in a bull market it will moon like everything else and even more through it's highly speculative character. Screencap and show me this in 3 years. The idea is gold but I see no way of adopting it. I also invested a bit like I told you cause in the end it will increase my NEO stack.
Juan Wilson
i dont see how you dont see people adopting this... it's way easier than using VPN or TOR and VPN is used by ~1 B people daily. 1 out of 4 people in the world use VPN To connect to the Internet to (for example) get through the Firewall of China or to watch Netflx
Connor Murphy
Can anyone tell me why this is better than Holo hosting? Or are they even competitors?
Christian Hill
No one is trying to do what NKN does...
Holo / SUB / Skycoin / ELA
they are all different, not even competitors and mostly what they aim to do will never be used by normies or can't even be done properly - Skycoin
Good that you mentioned it, i see a supporter here :-).
yes, that's the biggest selling point, Cellular Automata why this is such an amazing thing... that's why it's even called New Kind of Network, it's play of words on Stephen Wolfram's work New kind of Science.
Holo is a bunch of hippies working on their communist vision in their backyard, nkn involves actual software engineers developing a product with ample funding and industry connections.
this is not Holo's thread and there's a difference between making fun and insulting. You just got played.
Jonathan Gray
Be kinder to newcomers by showing them how to become included. To play another steals wealth from speculative investors turned off by behavioral concerns.
Xavier Cruz
I'll try, it's just hard with so many insulting people thinking they can do anything simply because they're on the Internet, but I understand it's the way to go.
Aiden Johnson
Well yeah, everyone got aggressive and condescending the second I mentioned Holo. That's telling to me.
Carson Nelson
Yeah, I 'really' get that. No elders of internet so everyone has to grow up with it in their own time. Shitty part is that so many take the little nicks from the internet because, well, society really has dropped the ball on how it should interact with itself.
As long as Trump is President, then reality is FREE GAME.
I just see no reason in playing without helping others up/out because I've known lots of rich people who live in isolation. They forget how to have inclusive conversations with others and just throw their, "Because I'm rich," as an argument for increasingly poor behavior.
Then I will lift ALL brothers up that I find. I will not let my life be reduced to a story that fizzles because I could not convince others that the nameless conversation we have within is shared by someone like me.
Dylan Martinez
Tripfag. Now I know this is just DBC 2.0. Get out know if you're in.
Josiah Evans
A teachable moment: Where is my tripcode, exactly?
Christian Bell
Write me an email and post the last two words of the email here from your ID, if you want... [email protected] - my spam email used for purposes like this.
Xavier Turner
e-mail address.
Matthew Wilson
got it :), u should have an answer.
Nolan Richardson
Your negativity attracts only negative.
Colton Allen
Correct, however the lesson is meaningless to who you reply to if you do not give them a positive to rally around or feel included by.
Remember, this is for you to learn and use as you see fit. I gift nothing less to those that understand how much bounty I wish for my brothers.
Be kind, be communicative, and no killing until that respawn tech is perfected.
Carson Taylor
I can’t wait to create a node and make money with a Raspberry PI running Linux.
Jaxson Gutierrez
The team’s communication is improving here. This is better than what you guys tried before. Don’t ever do that again.
Cooper Campbell
what team? It's just my initiative to spread the word about nkn
Anthony Perry
You probably didn't pick up the hints. You are part of the team now. The less you reject, the more gains accept you.
Connor Hall
Okkk
Benjamin Watson
How else do you think NKN threads keep happening? Decentralized cheerleading. Here's ya pompoms.
Ethan Lee
I made most of them on my own... that’s how it was happening... but daily thread is a better way. I made like 50 threads.
Aaron Jackson
So this is all about sharing spare data? Isnt that what QLC and dent are doing?
Isaac Foster
No it’s not, read the inteoduction on nln website, watch the videos, dig into it. 3 am here, sleepy to spoon feed anyone
Hudson Hill
I'll pick the thread up so you can sleep.
It is about mathematically maximal network utilization. When ISP or a mobile phone carrier goes mesh network 5g it is NKN they will use to let their networks carry other tokenizations of services.
NKN is like if Tor actually rewarded its users and also performs the same function as the Connectify software (merge multiple bandwidth sources into one for a commutative speed increase)
Kayden Edwards
Thanks man... gonna go to bed now. I’ll create July 1 threadlater in the afternoon UTC time.
Adrian Fisher
Strength, brother memory. I will remember you when you wake. I count on it.
Logan Wood
lmao i was reading that thread last night. We need flags on this board
Kayden Powell
Are you brain-damaged? I don’t even invest in nkn, but there’s absolutely nothing wrong.
