welcome to the forum

People here on the forum who have “Maidsafe” behind their names are the actual Devs. It’s a team of 9 Devs and other that work for Maidsafe. Totally around 15 people I think.

Do you work on some user-friendly interface, like ethereums mist browser? Or would you let that to other developers?

Is somehow resolved consensus? So there can’t happen what happened to bitcoin? (not being able to rise block size)

No blocks are used. So when the network goes live and it works like expected it should scale to 1 million users without a problem.

@profispojka

I guess that informations will be for security reasons stored on multiple places. For the sake of speed of the most popular apps, will they be stored on more places, than less popular ones?

Well, yes and no. Every file is like stored on 4 different places on the network. When a file becomes populair it will become faster due to caching.

Here’s Safenet in 5 minutes. I hope that explains some more. And below that it the Wiki.
