I thought Skycoin was a scam? Is it just being pump and dumped?
Why are retards still buying this shitcoin, it has climbed about 100 places on CMC this month, WTF???
Why does this scamtoken keep mooning?
It's definitely a scam until I'm finished accumulating. I needed literally one extra week before this shit took off.
This
Are you fucking retarded or what? If you just do a bit of research you will find out this is one of the few actually legit projects in crypto
Skyledger and Obelisk mentioned in the UN, does that sound like a scam to you??
Fake and gay. Skycoin is a well known scam, just google it. The price is being pumped by idiots from the telegram group and it will fall back to earth soon. The lead dev is a delusional retard, with all these big plans that never actually happen. Stay away from this premined scamcoin desu.
Everyone said bitcoin/ether were scams a few years back, just google it. Lmao
What does it even do, something about cube satellites? Yeah that sounds completely legit, KEK. Every time I see it shilled here some user is talking about something else it's supposed to do. If it tries to do literally everything it will succeed at nothing. Whatever it hopes to achieve I doubt it will ever succeed, or if it does it will take decades and by that stage there will be better tech anyway.
Only thing they managed to achieve so far is charging gullible fools $20,000 for a miner to mine premined coins lol.
this
scams also moon, retard. See bitconnect and practically all ICOs
L O fucking L
you fell for that shit?
Get out Delphi. OUT!
That's a lie
Holy shit this board is full of fucking retards going all-in on an ERC20 led by a fat fuck who never interacts with its community vs a legit project which is lead by an early Bitcoin developer working 5+ years on a new technology blockchain solving scaleability, mining centralisation and destroying the need for 342049324 different shittokens nobody would ever want to use SMFH
I thought this was a Scientology affiliated chain. L. Ron. Hubbard fucking rocks!
If SKY is so good why has it taken them seven years before they even launch main net? Are the devs totally incompetent?
"seven years"
There is no fucking proof of that other then Synth saying it all of the time
you got scammed by faggot moonbois with their ERC20 bags. OP have you learned nothing?
yes, whats it even about? I didn't do any research and those cube-sattelite things sound fucking retarded, haha can't believe anyone's actually buying this, 10/10 will be bagholder haha
There's no proof anything synth says is true, the guy lives in a delusional fantasy world, he honestly believes he's going to launch fleets of fucking Borg Cube style satellites to force everyone to use his dumb tokens. Mega fucking KEK. If he even tries to launch them they'll be shot down by US and Russian missiles before they leave the atmosphere.
because skywire is just a fucking side project of skycoin, that has been in development for far less time. the coin was done being developed years ago, and is still unmatched by any other coin.
Why don't you try sending a transaction? Speed is unmatched, fees are 0. What they have finished is sublime and beyond any other project in crypto so far.
When are the satellites launching retards?
anyone built a skyminer yet? I'm thinking of trying it out. I have around 20 R pi's from a postponed project
When Skycoin hits a billion MC Synth will be launching one just for marketing lol
the satellites are just for fun . . . not at all an integral part of skywire.
its pretty funny how everyone with half a brain only pays attention to muh "1 btc miner (that came with 1.5 btc worth of skycoin)" and muh "launch satellite at 1 bil marketcap (falsely inferring that skywire will have 500 ms latency)" and never realize what the skycoin platform actually is.
build a 4 board one, its pretty simple if you're linux handy. need 64bit processor for golang, however.
I'm not sure why people on this board are so tryhard repelling ''FUD'' and promoting their holdings. Honestly, anyone who keeps argumenting the same shit either is a holder having fun or someone seriously just didn't bother doing their homework and I don't see a need to spoonfeed anyone.
Jow Forums is the only place where people call legitimate singular blockchain "tokens" and then call any random erc20 shit token (like holo or req) a coin
what will it do exactly, I just found out about skycoin about an hour ago. From what i got so far its just some new internet??
yes
during testnet it functions as a decentralized VPN (free to use, just download skywire client from github, no special hardware needed to connect to nodes, only to participate in testnet and get rewards). The harware being tested right now is prototype for network backend, not for consumer grade participation. peer-to-peer unidirectional antennas are being built, will be shipped with the next revision of hardware.
Skywire is just the first app to use the skycoin blockchain, Point of Sale wallet and hardware wallet with integrated DEX are in prototype stage as well. KittyCash is a tomogachi like cryptocollectible game that is alpha launching with a public airdrop in the next few days.
The coin itself is wizard, wallet to wallet takes seconds, i get my coins off cryptopia within 1-3 seconds as long as cryptopia isn't backlogged processing.
There's a sandbox MMO that just entered pre-development, and groups working on casino style games using skycoin as well. then there's the UN project, there's countless university and corporate and even government partnerships being launched as well.
The crypto space is filled with a bunch of bullshit hype, the skycoin project is so fucking busy DOING SHIT that they don't even have time to handhold for the testnet that launches TOMORROW, let alone send out 100,000 tweets about every future move.
...
yeah I read that, it's really the most baseless article I've read in a while. They have done 0 research. I think the Skycoin community is kinda tired anyway combatting all the scam accusations.
If Jow Forums learned anything, scam accusations are often a huge buy signal, especially when the project has been around for more as 6 years...

How is it baseless when synth claims that guy isn't the coo and never was but there are multiple times when Skycoin has said he was?? It doesn't take a genius to see they are trying to cover it up and lie. Enjoy your $10k raspberry pi !
HE said he was. HIS ASSISTANT said he was. That's it. The COO's name is Sam and he was COO long before bradford ever came through.
Skycoin, eos, nano, ethereum, steem, monero and 2 others I want to keep a secret. Thats all the real projects ive ever found.
Even then skycoin is a longshot. Yes its real and moving toward something big, I just dont know if this team can scale to that level.
Satellites in space? Cmon man, you dont even have a mesh router yet. Not entirely sure he has ever even heard of a phased array judging from how he keeps dicking around with motorized antennas.
Scamcoin
The idea is this acts as an incentivised way to do a mesh network, IE it will disrupt comcast and other ISPs.
They are starting off with incentivised VPNs, because they are easy. Im becoming concerned its taking them this long to launch a VPN service. Its literally not that hard. There are hundreds of them on the net, some of them free. How many months has he been working on this now?
After that they are supposed to come out with router hardware so you can share your internet with your neighbors, and resell it. You can also relay it across town from hop to hop and potentially replace an entire cities worth of ISP. Presumably they will come out with hardware attachments for cell towers, as they are run by 3rd parties and they have a fiber link already run to them.
After that they launch satellites in space. You point a dish on your roof into the heavens and get internet that way. Yeah, I dunno about this stage of the plan. They cant even set up a god damn vpn service.
Another thing is that none of this really "requires" skycoin. I know he will design his software to use only his token, but you could copy paste his code and make it work with Nano or Eos or any other free, high throughput coin. I would think that any professional setup on a cell tower would accept many kinds of payment just to expand their customer base. I dont really see the need for skycoin brand skycoin.
top lel. nice bait.
Even so᠌yboys know that organizations and companies can't launch satellites. It just doesn't happen.
-phased arrays are already being designed, motorized is a stepping stone
-satellite was literally just a meme, it's 100% to show off and nothing else.
-VPN has been working since december, at least. skywire VPN is a means to test and bootstrap skywire hardware deployment, not and end itself.
-skywire is just an app for skycoin, being developed by the people that made skycoin (AFTER they made skycoin). Why would they build it on another coin?
Yeah, that's one of my concerns too. They claim to have been "working" on this for seven years but they have absolutely nothing to show for it except a pile of broken promises. Literally nothing actually works right now, its all 'planned for the future'. And yeah by the time the future ever comes some other coin will just copy it and the SKY token becomes worthless. This project is dead in the water.
Right, exactly, this was all proven by the flat earthers long ago.
All the shills itt are from the same telegram lol. Confido 2.0
>Why would they build it on another coin?
The people at skycoin wouldnt. The Rodger Vers of the world would simply copy paste his open source code with a token of their own and instantly be competitive.
Do you have a source for the phased array thing?
>guy makes website
>guy handles twitter
>guy has an assistant, or at least, an assistant's email account
>starts posting and directing inquiries to himself as COO
Not hard to work out.
They do have a working unique blockchain with zero fees and high transactions per second. They had that years before IOTA and Nano (raiblocks).
If their marketing team wasnt such a goof troop this thing would be a top 10 coin by now.
That was one of the great things about Nano, really clear concise marketing. "We are money. Free, instant money. Thats it. Do one thing and do it well."
Meanwhile the skycoin clowns are all OBLISK, INCENTIVIZED BITTORRENT, FREE INTERNET, SATELLITES, COIN HOURS, SKYWIRE, AND OH YEAH NONE OF THIS CURRENTLY WORKS.
