BUt also, I feel that adoption will be better if the price is much higher.
Rather than see some advantage like ‘zomg’ make tons of killings because of farming. That costs of farming are greater… rent of land, reliability etc. I think it rare you have 170,000$ to sink into farming and willing to do that. setting up 1000 machines is no joke, and keeping the up and running etc equally not a joke so there is that barrier to entry.
Also, the better the price the more people will be willing to farm.
What is the cost of all these human effort to make farmers active??
Differently of Ether (it has a very restricty demand, from programmers only… now, in the beggining of it…), my impression is that Safecoin will be useful for a broader audience.
I always think of Ethereum as a slow monster that needs to be fed with larges ammounts of Ether - again, i’m no programmer ok? In my studies of the issue, i notice that people claims that programming on it is very hard also. So, i think apps for it will need to be very powerful, monsters.
For simple stuff (from “useless” gambling apps to useful apps), my impression is that an Ethereum aproach doesn’t pay itself.
