Spare your minute and teach us, will you? It may give us a hint on which channels have been the most effective as far as attracting new MAIDheads, thanks!

same as @rthgnl the Guardian article, although I already had a vague sense of remembering it from some earlier reference that I hadn’t acted on.

From Alex Fortin!!!

In bitcointalk -forum, or maybe Reddit, I don’t remember exactly. I read about the crowdsale and the whole idea made a lot of sense. Still it took over a year to actually buy any MAID and a couple of years to register here.

I was listening to the Crypto Show podcast and Nick Lambert was one of their guests. This piqued my interest and I began researching the SAFE Network afterwards.

I read this book whilst on holiday and maidsafe was one of the projects talked about. When I got home I done some research and since then been trying to accumulate.

I can’t actually remember… I remember reading the old Google group and being sufficiently convinced to take part in the crowd sale. I am guessing it may have been the bitcointalk forums when I used to frequent there.
