Even if omni folded right now. The balances can still be seen and there would be a way to issue safecoin for the balance held. Simple as signing a message with your private key.
Same as above. And can be done now or years later.
Agreed.
Even if bitcoin died, as long as someone has a verified copy of the database then what i said above can be done.
Might seem like an over exaggeration but MAID price is so damn stagnant anyways as it is. Im glad itās not over reactive and found a nice base at .10c for quite some time but now that there is even less liquidity and cheap coins to nab it is ripe for manipulation. What saves us a lot is the hodling but if this IS manipulation we NEED liquidity to prevent this. We want steady growth, not bad technicals that makes our coin look like a pump and dump or alternately, a dead coin. Hell this coin should realistically be somewhere between .40-.70c rn with new price discovery as people become more aware of the project and coin and instead it just drags itās ass across the floor because itās barely being traded.
I find it great for us to accumulate over time but it doesnāt lead to what I think what we are all really looking forward to in the end which is funding for the team, a successful project with high interest, and then some gains for being early supporters and advocates.
Itās time we do something about it.
This is what I was suggesting for but in a much for frantic and panicked way lol. Very well said. The last thing we need is bad technicals and harder funding.
Iāll join you with my tinfoil hat thought.
Justin Sun and friends now own Polo right?
Dont know much about Tron but at a quick glance I see ādecentralize the internet and distributed storageā
Well what a coincidence.
Snuff out the competition perhaps? Itās not an implausible possibility.
Right now the poloniex address has 60,637,406 MAID.
Will be interesting to see how that changes over the coming days.
Also there are a total of 16475 MAID addresses. Will be interesting to see how many addresses the polo address is withdrawn into.
I had in mind that there were only 2.2% of ALL MAID in the order book for sale on Poloniexā¦ And only 13,3% of ALL MAID in the exchange, and you know that many people use it as a bank account to keep their moneyā¦
And another 0,7% for sale on Bittrexā¦ LOL
Iām happy to help anyone trade for a small fee on polo. Iām Aussie so my account still works.
Not sure on your tax laws, but be careful, in the uk my accountant told me trading for others would make me a trader ( incurring higher taxes ). Where as I can trade all day long for myself, and only pay capital gains.
I hope Maidsafe does not get in trouble with these prices. No concerns about that?
Why worry about something that is not an issue for the moment, we could die tomorrow, do you let that worry you?
Gee, I take a break from this trade for a day, and what do I come back to? 
Seriously though, are people more behind the idea of switching to ERC-20? Seems like it.
I cant even look at the price anymore 
Thereās a lot of chatter from negheads and those with vested interestsā¦ such is the nature of crypto trading that the pump and dumpers love and opportunity to stir anxiety and have people act in the ways they can profit from. Stay calm and donāt be exploited.
Poloniex have hit a new low and their customer service sucks too: reply below just received is a boilerplate of ignorance!

other factors such as new guidance from regulators
Iāve queried if that was a factor but Iāve little hope of a clear answer, given the dull response from someone whose feedback is branded as Canadian Circle not Poloniex.
Again - itās just more evidence of the need to move away from dependency on 3rd parties.
Innovation will suffer, if the great projects like MAID do not thrive. I expect this project will move forward well enough but having hurdles doesnāt make it easier.
Incidentally - off topicā¦ I noted a while back that Coinbase does not like the idea of Brexit and might move out of the UK. So, watch that if you use them. UK seems to be intent on self harm 
Given the UK (London) is one of the main financial capitals in the world, I doubt the UK government will be looking to harm that. Indeed, I suspect the talk of Tobin taxes and the like contributed pressure towards leaving.
IMO, the UK will move towards lowering tariffs and barriers to trade. After all, what is the point of unshackling yourself from a cartel if youāre not going capitalise on the advantages it can bring?
At least MAID is up 50% against omni! 
Strangely, there was an announcement about omni investment the other day though. IIRC, it was Tether. Found the link:
Then days later, polo dumps Omni and MAID. It seems too coincidental to be unrelated. Iām not sure what the play is thoughā¦ how does Tron fit into this picture I wonder?
It just occurred to me that the most likely reason the price tanked is that Poloniex is selling off all the unclaimed maid from the former US clients and converting it to USDT so that it can be returned to the rightful owners next month.
Good post this.
Honestly, feeling sorry for the folks who are immediately struck by the price dump, I donāt care that much as long as the dev team keeps marching towards the goal.
As for Polo, speaking from the selfish perspective, I donāt care at all. I left them a while ago. The way they handled the KYC disaster caved me in. I still regret subduing to the policy because I betrayed my beliefs on this. But hell, I wanted my maid back. Then they lost me completely when they began charging 80 maid for withdrawals. Reading they were getting out of the Circle stranglehold flashed a bit of hope, but going with Justin is just more meh for me.
That would be pretty sickening. Crashing the market using misappropriated tokens in order to profit. They wouldnāt massively care what the price was - it would be free money anyway, especially as they need rid of them to re-enter the US market.
Factom (FCT) has actually gone up in price.
