The SKY fags are right... How the fuck is any of this decentralized if the internet infrastructure is controlled by the internet mafia aka comcast/time warner etc
Once people figure this out, every other coin is dead unless they can figure out how to decentralize the internet
net neutrality is dead on the 11th of june and you will have to use Sky Wire to access a free internet
Gavin Powell
NKN = decentralized internet
Camden Thomas
It's basically a race between sky nexus and holochain to see who can create the first fully functioning decentralised internet. My money's on all three. We'll probably have parallel systems for a while. Like how Apple and Microsoft both dominate personal computers

They are essentially attempting to re-define what it means to be a blockchain.
Either you are secure all the way down or not at all.
I am already using Skywire to watch US Netflix when my paid VPN service gets detected by Netflix.
People like to make fun of the Skyminer but only because they don't understand the design philosophy.
The 1 computer 1 vote original vision is ACTUALLY happening with these shitty Orange Pi's Skyminers are using and retards are too ignorant to realise.

Tbh cryptos would soon be banned due to their communist influence. If it actually becomes mainstream it would only lead to communism
Ethan Nelson
you probably should fucking buy skycoin unless you wanna be encino caveman level IQ when net neutrality hits
Samuel Cook
Nice FUD
Alexander Gomez
skycoin is very cheap right now on binance. i will buy some :)

synth is a genius see you cucks fags and pajeet Coca cola kid suck dicks

Tron (TRX) is already internet 3.0. Look up some videos Justin Sun did to explain how it works.

Substratum is literally dogshit compared to sky
Adrian Price
oh my god you blacked cuck take justin sun and shove it up your ass idiot
My ISP is starting to block crypto-related domains. This thing better come fast.
Grayson Nelson
fuck off back to twitter or your shite facebook "crypto group".. your not even worthy of reddit
John Cooper
LOLOLOL you must have sub 70 IQ
Lincoln Myers
Fucking retard.
If the Internet is a web of lines and nodes, then the parts that verify transactions are on the edges of the web(s). The network medium or the owner of transmission doesn't matter. Just a connection of some kind to the network does.
Decentralized means your processing takes place at the edge, not at a hub.
Why would I even want decentralized internet if I'm not a pedo or arms dealer?
Wouldn't it be slow by nature? Why would I want that I just got fiber and never going back to lag
Landon Sanchez
But holo run on the regular internet dude. Holo need to use Skywire to be truly decentralised while Skycoin doesn't need holo at all with its parallel chains. Holo would be nice as an firefox plugin though.
Tell that to the Chinese. The need for decentralized internet is huge. Maybe in the US you don't care if you get spied on, but realize it's a downward spiral. Someone in here just said their ISP is starting to block crypto activities. Censorship is very real.
Lincoln Morgan
The sky meshnet isn't even technologically plausible. It's just bullshit that sounds good to people who don't know shit about wifi.
Jordan Gonzalez
Meshnets are a reality, they just need better and cheaper antennas (a matter of time) and an incentive to support them (like a cryptocurrency as benefit for providing bandwith).
Hmm just like electric cars have needed better battery capacity for the last 10 years? You can't rush innovation lad, this is likely premature
Ryan Brooks
doesn't matter they're all the same
Grayson Allen
is this a psyops bot? no human can be this intentionally retarded
James Rivera
You are a retard. Nodes doesn't have to be on the edges, they can be the first jump, it all the depends on the amount of nodes and where you live, just like with the regular internet, retard.
Because ISPs can throttle speeds to different websites e.g Netflix for having a lot of traffic unless Netflix pays them money. This is unfair and undemocratic. Imagine if Amazon pays your ISP to throttle Netflix so that Amazon Video is faster and better usable in your area, wouldnt that suck? This doesnt matter if you have fiber or not, if you call your ISP and say "Netflix is slow" they will say its a problem on Netflix end, and if you call Netflix they will say its your ISP, so there is nothing except Netflix paying the hefty fee that stops this.
Dumbfuck, there are small areas like detroit and cuba who already uses mesh networks, although they arent specially designed like skywire is. They are just using REGULAR instore routers, antennas and ethernet cables. Skycoin is developing their own stuff to make sure it works better and there is an incentive to run a node which isnt the case in other mesh networks, this helps with adoption and more nodes.
They have their own blockchain you retard, probably the best on out there as well
Chase Nelson
You're gonna make it bro. As soon as i learned about independent mesh networks, i swapped all of my positions for Nexus and Skycoin.
I don't say this lightly, but i truly believe 90% of all coins will be completely obsolete within a few years because of Sky and NXS.
Luke Campbell
Nexus should just focus on the satellites and merge with skycoin because skycoins platform and concensus is far superior. But both definitely have great ideas and should try to work together

>nodes can be anywhere.
So point me to the centre of that.
Retard.
>Doesn't know the difference between logical and physical structure.
Wtf are you talking about you retard? Centre of what? Skywire isnt centralized so there is no fucking centre you oblivious retard
Adam Adams
Oh holy shit you must be really fucking retarded. Internet in the US is owned by 2 companies, these companies can throttle internet speeds to youtube or whatever they want and you cant do anything about it. Further more there is centralization when it comes to data, for example all data passes through your ISP and they can read and see wtf you do, data stored on google/amazon servers are also a centralized part of internets infrastructure, can you stop being such a brainlet and learn to fucking think? There is nothing about the internet today that is decentralized, you obviously doesnt even know what the fuck decentralization of the internet means if you think so
Ethan Cox
You can already use skywire as a VPN. WiMax functionality coming later on
Hudson Parker
>hurr durr technologically impossible
idiot
>15-30km wifi antennas >only a few gb fiber nodes are required for the whole network to provide broadband in any larger area >VPN/TOR functionality built in >cheaper and healthier than 4g/5g due to wifi having a longer frequency signal >it even has transaction pooling like XMR
>hurr durr if you have nothing to hide
This isn't the 00s idiot, we're on to you and your FUD is more outdated than Vitalik's fashion sense

Achieving what they want to achieve would be near impossible even if a big company with tons of money and smart people running it were behind the wheel. The chance a couple autistic faggots will pull it off is literally zero.
Logan Walker
funny you should make a thread like this right now. NKN was literally just released onto a DEX. The creators are the same guys responsible for ont/neo. It aims to decentralise internet data as well as hosting (sounds like a DENT/holochain hybrid from what I can tell so far). it's getting onto big exchanges shortly supposedly
Alexander Scott
If there's anyone here with deep-ass questions regarding Skycoin, you can drop them in here to have Synth check them out:
It still relies on the classic internet you fucking retard, it solves nothing
>Achieving what they want to achieve would be near impossible even if a big company with tons of money and smart people running it were behind the wheel. The chance a couple autistic faggots will pull it off is literally zero.
Hello retard, meshnets already work, Skycoin is even creating specialized equipment to make it even better and you dont need much money, you just need nodes (people) to forward the traffic, guess why people want to be nodes? Because they will become "ISPs" and get paid in coinhours for doing so, a INCENTIVE is the only thing that has been missing from creating a good and big meshnet
