Its crashing today. Whats going on with Skycoin, its seems a brilliant project with huge potential. Why is it so unloved right now? When I bought the other day bots instantly dipped the price down, is it being heavily manipulated?
Price is being suppressed on Binance by whales. This will not last forever. They want to get as much as possible for cheap because Skycoin fundamentals are so desirable.

Idk who’s worse, skyfags or vetfags. The coping is reaching maximum anal penetration.
How much did you pay for your box of orange pis? Be honest now? Taking into account the fact that the rebate in sky declined by almost 90% in value in between when it was issued and received. How much did it cost you? Why would a supposedly decentralised network need their miners to be whitelisted by a centralised company?

its vaporware my man

>its seems a brilliant project with huge potential.
top zozzle.
literally every altcoin (that is, "any crypto but the original Bitcoin") has always been a "Hurr Durr brilliant project with Herp Derp huge potential".
>TLDR: gullible people always trust buzzwords. BTW, anything "brilliant" is only meant to take your money. Anything "huge potential" is only meant to scam gullible faggots.
>vaporware In today's cryptocurrency market, a top project by developer activity is described as vaporware. What does this say about all your shitcoins? Ranked #1 out of selected projects by @jimtalksdata twitter.com/jimtalksdata/status/902333935983751173 Ranked #13 out of 864 for project activity on cryptomiso. cryptomiso.com Ranked #19 out of 2341 by developer score on Coingecko. coingecko.com/en?sort_by=developer_score Check development progress yourself by viewing the Skycoin Github. github.com/skycoin The Skywire testnet is online and growing, with a node count of 7500 so far. discovery.skycoin.net:8001/#/ Most of your ICOs from last year are failing right now, their price may still be up but the actual teams aren't developing. They are running out of money. That just means more developers for Skycoin.

>How much did you pay for your box of orange pis? People paid ~$700 for a miner. They also paid most of 1 Bitcoin to support the development of the project, for which they received a rebate in Skycoin.
>declined by almost 90% Most don't care about the short term dips. Personally, I have Bitcoin that I've held through ups and downs since 2014.
>Why would a supposedly decentralised network need their miners to be whitelisted by a centralised company? It's not "supposedly decentralized" because it's not even built yet. It's barely two months in to testing. The foundation is still measuring and figuring out real world dynamics for a decentralized internet. You may need to read up on the project more if you think that this stuff is going to pop up overnight.

lmao you got scammed plain and simple. 1 BTC for a bunch of raspberries, get SKY in return thats now worth 1/10. Team recieved hundreds of btc, spent maybe 10% of it on the pi's, gave you SKYbags in exchange. This shit's going to $0.5
Logan Morgan
Yes but the rebate coincidentally declined massively in value from the time it was issued to the time it was received. So in terms of dollar value back people who bought skyminers spent thousands of dollars on them. Why couldn’t they just sell one for a normal amount of money like Holochain are doing with their holoports? Holoports are 200 dollars in fiat. No convoluted btc sky rebate scam needed.
They claim they are building a decentralised internet. Why do miners need to be whitelisted by a centralised authority then? No other decentralised crypto requires this. Don’t tell me ‘they’re still figuring it out’. That’s bullshit. If I want to mine ether or holo I can do so right now with no ‘whitelisting’ needed. Why does sky need to whitelist their miners?

T-E-S-T-N-E-T THEY NEED TO T-E-S-T THE NETWORK THEY NEED TO KNOW WHO IS RUNNING WHAT BECAUSE THEY ARE T-E-S-T-I-N-G FUCKING RETARD, USE YOUR THINKMEAT

They're actually stopping that practice going forward since part of the price dump is people selling their rebates.
Depending on the price over the next few months, I'll probably make ROI in November. My DIY miner will make ROI this month. If I just cashed everything out as I got it, I'm pretty much getting free hardware for participating in the testnet. After launch and the mainnet is live, I'll probably end up with 4x that 1 Bitcoin in mid 2019.
Production lines take time to warm up and the 1 bitcoin price was a means of supporting the project, not a get rich quick scheme. People were more than welcome to build their own while the foundation worked to get their supply chain and manufacturing processes in line.
Holoports are not modular, nor do they provide performance for what they're sold for. Holochain will be a slow hobbyist platform.
Testnet is not bullshit. Data collection is important for defining what kinds of devices should be run and which should not, like weeding out virtual servers and other centralized spoofing methods. Holo can issue infinite tokens because their coin doesn't actually do anything. Skywire is metered and utilizes high performance protocols like MPLS and more complex concepts like a closed loop coinhour economy.
If you don't like investing your time and energy in a thoroughly tested and robust project, you should definitely go buy a holoport from their indiegogo campaign.
