Skycoin - the world’s most advanced blockchain ecosystem Skywire - the new decentralized Internet Lightning-fast, free transactions Stronger privacy than Monero Completely secure, infinitely scalable, ISP independent Powerful DAPP platform Created by early Bitcoin and Ethereum devs Makes 99% of other cryptos obsolete Low circulating supply means Skycoin will be hoarded Holding Skycoin generates Skyhours Fulfills Satoshi’s original vision Fleet of orbital Skycubes (satellite nodes)
If you watch this video, you will unironically sell every one of your shitcoins and go all-in on Skycoin.
they're selling custom paperweight I gues you can probably recycle the CPU fan for hot days and the aluminum frame is probably sturdy enough, for you to sit on it
rotflmao at all the skycucks please provide more entertainment NOW !
Ayden King
In all seriousness though please don't tell me that guy is walking down times square screaming and evangelizing Skycoin like some deranged religious lunatic.
Justin Johnson
>coin is a decentralized ISP >testnet curious to see how that "internet access" can be a testnet without the final functionality. Does it only serve specific servers or what?
Jaxson Williams
ok i wont
just close ur eyes bb, it'll fell gud
Camden Lee
For now, skynodes will access internet through normal ISP. Once they reach critical mass, skynodes will communicate over wireless / radio / line-of-sight / satellite / dark fibre comms links, depending upon which is best for the particular user. This removes ISPs and single points of failure. Once it reaches critical mass, the Skynet can never be taken down. Governments are looking into this too (pic related).
>Stronger privacy than Monero Wait what? Is this guy lying or telling the truth? Can someone verify? Never saw anything like that in the whitepaper.

Easton Butler
yea its a privacy coin using coinjoin, I can't tell if its better though, not a technical guy.
Oliver Cook
Oh ok. No its not nearly as good then. This is more like Dash-level privacy.
Michael King
>skynodes will communicate over wireless / radio / line-of-sight / satellite / dark fibre comms links Do they have hardware specs somewhere? I doubt any cheap wi-fi antenna is going to make the cut for a workload like that.
Also outcompeting mobile internet is going to pretty hard. I mean 5G will support 1-2,5GBit, wiresless, from a handful of antennas per city.
Your magic internet box gotta be cheap to get, cheap to use, and reliable too.
It will be free to use for most people running a node. Basically you get paid in skyhours for routing traffic through your node or hosting storage/computing power on your node, and you pay skyhours when you use bandwidth/storage/computing on the network. You also pay skyhours to access the dapps and games that run on the platform. There are 30+ ICOs already planning to launch. Each ICO gets its own blockchain and wallet and currency.
SKY is a complete blockchain ecosystem with skyhours as the currency. Also by holding Skycoins in your wallet you generate 1 skyhour per Skycoin per hour, so everybody will hodl the Skycoins and just spend the skyhours.
The antennas are in development, no specs yet but the devs say they will operate over a range of bandwidths and distances, with traditional ISP as a fallback if needed. The nodes don't care whether they're connected to an ISP or a satellite line or a wireless link - it's a mesh network and they just route over the best path to the destination.
Maybe because it is Boxmining and anyone who doesn't see that should probably get glasses?
Daniel Watson
you can rebuild the monero protocol on their platform and make it more secure, same with TOR
Eli Young
The Skycoin/Skyhours is one of my favourite, you won't have a situation as you have with most crypto's (looking at you Bitcoin) where everyone just hoards it whilst it was meant to be a currency.
In this way, you have a deflationary currency generating an inflationary currency which people will spend. Somethign to hoard, something to spend, it's fucking genius and I really don't get why any other crypto hasn't thought of this before.
James Foster
You can do that with any platform. Im looking forward to monero on EOS.
Dominic Powell
I have a feeling that guy is actually personalfunfest. I hope that faggot gets struck by lightning walking through the rain with that thing
Isaiah Carter
I love the Scientology-Skycoin partnership - we will kill all other chains! Dianetics is written for the blockchain.
Jayden Rivera
This video actually does a good job of explaining how it all works.
The only problem I find with Skycoin is the community, and with the community I mean the admins in the community, they are serious assholes and pricks and they keep defending themselves that they have to deal with assholes but they are so hostile that anyone that comes in contact with them immediatly dislikes them, they give their opinion on a matter and the admin starts telling them to fuck off and stuff like that. Synth is also wasting a lot of time bashing projects like HOLO, like honestly who even gives a shit but the skycoin community keeps glorifying these things.
Jace Allen
I agree the community managers are pretty bad, I don't mind synth though he's sharing his opinions on things from actually reading other project's source code and business plans
Hunter Cook
topkek
Eli Hughes
that's actually boxmining
David Morgan
No he isn't, he just scans something he knows nothing about and then spouts shit that is always provably wrong.
Don't believe in oracles brainlet. Synth is really not that smart as they come too.
Leo Hall
Why is it so difficult to buy?
Brandon Lopez
Sounds like something I want to steer far clear of. Thanks for the heads up guys.
how is someone supposed to take a photo of a satellite in space?
do you have any idea how much that would cost?
t. aerospace engineer
Daniel Gray
There are an estimated 2,271 satellites supposedly in space and none of them can take real photos of another satellite?
Jeremiah Cruz
Skycoin biggest dupe since bitconnect
Ayden Phillips
Just saw on a Skycoin interview, they have over 100 employees globally now.
Adrian Kelly
why do the black men steal so much
Gavin Bailey
Uhh, from another satellite with a decent camera?
Christian Lee
>weird and creepy
Daniel Phillips
True. The admins are total dicks. It makes it seem really unprofessional tbhfam. Also they use the absolute shittest of the shit tier trading exchanges. Might buy some once they get on some real exchanges and learn how to treat their investors with respect.
Jaxon Collins
>sovereign >government backed
you are an idiot and no one fucking cares about Skycoin
Dominic Cox
You guys are seriously complaining about telegram admins. Yeah they might not be the most pleasant but who cares to dismiss a project over that is pretty retarded desu.

Did anyone mention the ceo literally went into holochain telegram and started attacking holochain and saying its community was racist. Lololololololll
Jeremiah Scott
Is the community actually racist? If so, I might want to look into Holochain
Camden Butler
Yes
Nathaniel Clark
why doesnt anyone speak up
stupid skycrap why does it have to be centralized why cant we use gpu to send into space
Lincoln Sanders
It’s a fucking shitcoin ponzi
Charles Hill
Because you’re not actually mining, you’re forwarding bandwidth. Your gpu isn’t going to do shit. Go build and diy miner and dyor.
Jace Wood
so the project is viable user ?
Thomas Cooper
link to conversation?
Dylan Thomas
Someone convince me that basedcoin isn't just a scam to sell hardware.
Hudson Myers
Yes, go watch some recent interviews. They even talk about 3rd world adoption as a priority. All you need is a raspberry pi (orange pi prime to be exact) and a router
If you just use Substratum or vpn or Tor, you can browse anything, no need for meshnet. I'm already worried about cancer; I don't want to stick a high powered antenna on the side of my bedroom thanks.
Lucas Miller
>Go build and diy miner is it worth it? I'm thinking about building one, but they might release their 2nd gen miner soon.
Jace Richardson
For this to achieve critical mass you will need to have at least 3-4% of the population to own a skyminer. Something which is absolutely unrealistic given that 3-4% of the population in the US own crypto or even have enough money to their name to buy such a miner. I would be thoroughly surprised if they'd even achieve 0.5% of the global market cap. A kickstarter project selling some mesh network router for 20$ has a higher chance than this pos. Not saying that skycoin fundamentally sucks, but critical mass to decentralize the internet is nothing more than a cash grrab. Probably hard to understand if you are a brainlet tho.
>youtube.com/watch?v=7zc12ZPbMLE Good video. Skycoin shilled by the fucking United Nations now! Skyledger and Obelisk mentioned multiple times, including around 9:55, 14:00 and 17:30.
1 min into the vid this fucker thinks litecoin is on par with ethereum as block chain 2.0
straight off the bat you know this guy doesnt know shit.
Ryan Jenkins
>even have enough money to their name to buy such a miner This is a long-term project. They're developing a low-cost USB node (sub $30). It will reach mass adoption easily when people can just buy a $20 USB stick and then get free internet forever. They're also releasing a hardware wallet this year (again, sub $30), they'll have their own DEX soon, all sorts of cool stuff in the pipeline.
Skycoin literally have a Prof. Dr. Dr. shill in the fucking UN. This guy has like a ton of degrees hence the retarded name.
Linked to the time where he literally mentions Skycoin's Obelisk (consensus algo) and Skyledger (now known as Fiber, which is the ICO platform) as the solution for ending corruption in the third world.
Dylan Hernandez
Not exactly, supply of GAS is capped, meaning there is a disincentive to spend it. Why spend now when it will be worth more in the future?
Skycoin Coin Hours are deliberately inflationary to encourage spending, thereby creating an actual economy within the Skycoin ecosystem. Coin Hours will be spent to access services on the platform - bandwidth, storage, computing, dApps, games etc.
It is only internet over internet initially to test out software. the hardware antennas are being developed simultaneously. Imagine a seperate internet that can be easily deploable in the third world because you dont need massive state owned infrastrcuture. There is still like 3 billion people who dont have access to cheap reliable internet.
Jason Campbell
Kek It’s more like, hey give up your color tv because I have a brand new black and white one
Jose Jackson
Initially. Deploying a new global decentralized internet doesn't happen overnight.
>government pursues exchange to remove skycoin pairs >price drops to 0 >no one wants shitty skyboxes anymore >back to normal
Andrew Anderson
KEK, governments can't pursue DEXes, there's nobody to pursue. Do you know nothing about crypto? SKY is only really listed on one proper exchange today anyway (Craptopia). It's going to rocket when it hits the big exchanges. Once the SKY mesh network is running it can never be shut down by any government. In any case, many governments will work with SKY and encourage use of the network.
They are ambitious, I give them that. But I don't see them reaching a adoption rate anywhere close to the amount needed to reach critical mass. More than likely some company like Google, Facebook, Tesla or Apple will come out with mesh routers and take the largest share of the market. Just give it some thought: Not even 5% of US population uses Crypto yet - It takes a 3-4% minority to kick start a status quo - SkyCoin is at less than 0.5% of the entire Crypto market cap. For SkyCoin to take off we'd need this to be a top 5 coin and Crypto to be something used every day by average people. It is going to be a tremendous task and extremely long term effort (talking decaDES).
Extremely ambitious project..but I am having my doubts user's. Not saying it is a shit coin, community and team seem pretty cool. Maybe I am missing some stuff, who knows o/

The beauty of Skycoin is that it doesn't need to appeal only to crypto adopters. It will appeal to anyone who wants free Internet. They don't even need to know about the blockchain/cryptocurrency in the background. All most people will see is a cheap box they plug in to get free Internet with no censorship, no ISP spying on them, fully encrypted, no dropouts, no bandwidth throttling, and even available in undeveloped countries with minimal traditional ISP coverage.
dex has no volume and no fiat pairs, and never will have
i assume that KEK was to your own retarded statement
the fact that you began to shill centralized exchange listings just after is the icing on the cake
the delusion is real
Zachary Reyes
>dex has no volume and no fiat pairs, and never will have Right now, there are no decent DEXes, but that's changing very quickly. This year we'll see FairX, SKYDEX, NEX, Binance DEX, EOSFinex and lots more. Many of these will have fiat gateways.
But for that you first would need a critical mass to establish a wide enough mesh network, no? That will be the primary challenge. Having a device for free internet doesn't really help me if there is no mesh around to connect. Rolling out those networks even through large-scale community efforts is still a gargantuan task. I could see it work in a small city, but the decentralized nature in crypto where everyone is spread out across the entire globe makes it even harder. What I would see working is a open internet mesh standard which a skyminer along with many other mesh device/companies could plug into and create a wide area network. This way Skycoin could benefit of others success and vice versa.
The Skyminers will be network agnostic - they won't care whether they're connected to an ISP, wireless, satellite, radio or dark fiber - they'll just use whatever connection is available to connect to the mesh network and earn Skycoin Coin Hours while doing so. Cities can be interconnected via dark fiber, all it takes is a data center or telco or other business to install a node and connect it to some of their spare capacity. Remote areas can be accessed via satellite. Everyone who uses it will be incentivized by earning coin hours relative to the amount of bandwidth/storage/computing power they can host.
It is a big task, but look at Detroit, they've already done it because there is a real need there. With Skycoin it becomes even easier because adopters are financially incentivized to run nodes (unlike most existing mesh networks today which are run by volunteers and therefore unsustainable long term).
But Jow Forums told me Skycoin was a scam, how come it is mentioned in the UN as the future of blockchain? This is unacceptable, just imagine what can happen if the mass media start talking about it, and chads start running nodes from home. What will happen with my shitcoins then?
