Is Safe browser looking for donations or investment like Decorum etc? :confused:

I think this is being run by SAFE itself no?

So many really great updates. This update took more time for me to get through, because I kept going off for more details, than any other update.

Great job! Keep it going strong!

These are more donation based as opposed to Decorum where participants received coins in return for their contribution.

Hi James,

We are trying to keep the focus on MAID as that is the currency in which the proposals were presented and it would be good to give MAID more utility. However, if it is a real PITA to use MAID then contributing BTC is OK. We wouldn’t want to add to your “ball-ache” :slight_smile:.

Here is praying that Omni becomes useful so Maidsafe can make some money off those tokens.

But an asset swap does not necessarily provide capital. Will be interesting to see what they have come up with.

For the people who want to donate for the SAFE Browser, you can just use Shapeshift.io, this way you don’t have to buy your Maidsafecoin first and after that send it to the address. You can just deposit whatever altcoin you got and put the SAFE Browser’s receiving address like so:

The balance is now 1.01366084 BTC and 9371 MAID. I added 2000 MAID this morning. To my knowledge this is the first time the MaidSafe team has asked for donations for a RFP and given the high levels of enthusiasm in the community it’s disappointing that this hasn’t translated into more of a contribution. For those not able to help by devoting their knowledge and time (big thanks to @Krishna_Kumar, @cretz, @joshuef) I’m sure a small monetary gesture would be appreciated. Time to show some love!

This is different from “We’re doing a crowdsale, take part and get coins”. This is a donation. I already donated something. Not the nice amount you did btw, thanks for that :thumbsup:. The Bitcoin wasn’t there this morning, so we more than doubled the value in only 5 to 6 hours. That’s a nice thing. We’re at 1491 dollar at the moment, probably more to come.

The question to answer here is:

  • What’s it worth to you to have a SAFE Browser in the coming weeks/months next to the Vault, Launcher and Demo App?

For some it might be $20 for others it might be $200 because they want to give some extra support. To someone else it might be worth $100 but they can only pay $2 at the moment due to personal issues. Everyone is free to support whatever and I’m convinced we reach the goals in the coming weeks to give us our beloved SAFEr Browser :thumbsup:. Thanks to @19eddyjohn75 for showing how you can use BTC to support with MAID in one easy step.

Agreed, my comment wasn’t meant to be a moral judgement, just a bit of a nudge :wink: and probably also easing my conscience because I haven’t contributed to any of the ‘real work’ nor the crowdsales.

Still looking forward to this!!

And you won’t be disappointed with @neo, he is one of the best :smiley:
