-16 mill cap (taking into account VC token release by EOY). -Founded by Yanbo Li, guy who wrote the code which NEO and uses -Rest of the core team all held high level positions at Nokia, Qualcomm, Google -Ambitious, but great use case for blockchain relating to removing inefficiencies and bottlenecks in internet and cellular data -Working with ISPs in Asia, EU, and USA, along with 3 of EU and USAs largest cellular data companies, under NDA so far -Research on consensus algorithm being done by Diffie's Cryptic Labs -Backed by large VCs from both west and east : NEO Global Capital, BlockVC, Arrington XRP, Fenbushi, among many others -Silicon Valley based and most of the work they have been doing is with western industry giants -FUDded to high heavens on /biz, which usually a good sign
A couple of their medium posts which are great reads if you're interested in how the tech works:
Soon test with 10k nodes reaching multiple K TX/s and having the best blockchain in the world.
Only algorand and avalanche is close... but they can do these kind of TPS with a small fraction of nodes. NKN can scale to billions of nodes easily with their revolutionary consensus
Biz won't change its mind until it's back at .50c then they will fomo in and miss all the good gains like always.

If only we get back to 0.50. It just feels so far away at this point.
Lincoln Baker
it'll happen sooner than you think

Fuck i'm streched between link. qash and aurora... need to find something to invest in it before it will be too late

The only fud for nkn is its shit liquidity exchanges. Devs have been on point with their roadmap and are active as fuck. If this shit began last Nov it would be top 20 in mc right now. Anyone that isnt loading up for when the market recovers isnt thinking long term.

Good. I want my fucking money back
Ayden Ross
Nice analysis. Will take that into considering. Thanks user.

Bentley Brown
yes, takes quite some time right now.
Christian Roberts

Daniel Scott

"NKN’s economic model will provide token reward for participants who help relay traffic for other users. In addition, mining reward will also be proportional to the amount of data that participants help relay."
If any of this traffic you relay is illegal, will your ISP see you as the owner and distributer of that data?
ISPs typically have fair use policies. How long till they get pissed off with people making money off their infrastructure?
These are the only two issues for me preventing me from buying NKN for the long term, anybody got an answer to either of them?

It's all cool. It's not like TOR exit node owners ever find themselves in front of the FBI or anything. I'm sure it'll be even more understandable when you're making bank in the process by laying down the most efficient routes and cheapest bandwidth.

I've tried to read as much as I can about nkn but dont have a sure answer. My guess though is the data will relayed in a way that it will act as a vpn so what your data is used for wont be known by your ISP but i could be completely wrong. My second guess is your ISP would have to monitor the public chain to try and track where data goes and what it is used for. Maybe someone else understands it better. They try and simplify their medium articles as best they can, I can tell, but half of it still goes over of my head man.

Cheers for the input. I'll do more reading. It's a shame the volume has dried up on switcheo.
