"But not many startups are trying to radically rethink the structure of the Internet.
UK-based MaidSafe, which has been building an alternative, decentralized p2p network since before Steve Jobs announced the original iPhone, is finally — finally! — gearing up for a tentative launch — flicking the switch on its first alpha test network today ..."
I used these first few line of that article (https://techcrunch.com/2016/08/12/after-a-decade-of-rd-maidsafes-decentralized-network-opens-for-alpha-testing/) as an introduction because I found them inspiring (and because I couldn't find a better way to get your attention) !
I'm not going to usually use the cryptocurrencies news to try to make a few quick bucks (not my style) BUT this time, I had to share.
MaidSafe is such a big player in the crypto world.
It has been semi-dormant for years and now that's it ... the beast has awakened !
Get prepare to see a lot of activity over there !
As you can see the market react quickly to the news.
When this kind of quick pump happens, there is low liquidity below the new price. In this case, we can see a strong support for the new price and we could potentially see it climb higher (fingers crossed !)
I don't know what is MaidSafe, I would strongly recommend you to dig a little into this amazing technology. As I see it, it will be one of the biggest players in the future of this fast-growing world of blockchain technology !
Others projects are also very promising.
Ethereum is trying to get a decent place in the future but is having some difficulties so I won't predict anything about it.
I have also in the radar Steem (off course) but also BitShares (mainly because we will see a fast growing need for a decentralised exchange and stable cryptocurrencies), Lisk (we'll see how their project evolves) and PEERPLAY (because the industry of gaming and gambling on the Internet desperately needs blockchain technology).
I could mention also QORA but it would be mainly because I like the potential return on investment. They are non-stop improving a very ambitious project and if they keep working like that, soon or later their market cap will catch on their real value. It's 0.6 million $ at the time of this article. With the right improvement or release, they could grow in an impressive way.
Enough talking !
I let you enjoy the rest of your beautiful day and wish you a great time in the Steemit platform. Cheers !
A cool video explaining how it works and what is MaidSafe :

MAIDSAFE is an internet revolution!
YEAH ! That's why I strongly believe in the project and I'm very happy today !
Have you been using this yourself? If so what data do you store there? Is it really as safe?
I didn't. I've only followed the project for a while and invested in it. I'll dig into it soon !
Please keep us updated. I would be interested in seeing how this develops and what are the security breaches it bumps into
