Which one is your favorite?
I am so curious about the plug and play model, especially that is made for beginners and for those on a budget with a hardware platform on which they can deploy their own applications. Practically, the platform grants you your own personal cloud.
Cool! So is there a reward for the plug and play nodes? Say you buy 8 of them, do you still get 8 SKY per node?
I have a dilemma…
Would it be cost effective for me to build my own skyminer now that the testnet is live?
Or its better for me to wait for the release of the official plug & play skyminer once test-net is over?
My opinion ,the earlier you get in, the better the reward. Yes waiting for the plug and play mining device is very cost effective, but you may miss out a lot...if you wish something cheaper, you can try an DIY Skyminer.
Getting into skywire mining now is the best thing to do.
Ok so there is lots of hardware, this gets us closer to the decentralized internet. Also the buyback is interesting, hoarding a few Sky basically gets you more Sky. :-D
Well I wonder the same thing. Do I get any rewards for the plug and play one? Then there s the tech side... I m not Mich of a technical guy but if a DIY gets me some monthly skycoins I would try to build it
I like Plug&Play device, makes it easier for me to install it in my parents house.

whatz gonna happen with obelisk?! it's replaced or has flaws as well? at some point they were kinda bragging about it
prob just some updates, as they clearly state. nothing wrong with that, it s better to have a bulletproof version before it s irreversible
