I am entirely with you there. The ambition and scope of that project is deeply impressive, and the genius behind it is the monetization of the network itself ,and the computation that enables it. This is a network monetized by user content, which AFAIK is something that maidsafe.net is still debating about. So:
- Use Steemit to monetize content
- Use MaidSafe to monetize
- content distribution (The network)
- computation (the computers & their CPU cycles)
