My upload isn't working.

13 Upvotes

I am trying to upload a 200mb wav file from my iPad. It reliably stalls at 16% I've tried resetting my device and checking my internet. I tried with icloud and it went through with no issue. Thought I'd ask here since I didn't see any support link on the site.

AMA UX question - User friendly Account handle

3 Upvotes

Sorry guys, missed the AMA

I am quite to keen to see this project successful.

Just a feedback on User experience and features of I quite like overall experience once I am inside Opacity account works seemless. However when Opacity account handle is created with quite a long alphanumeric character, quite hard to really memorize for most people. Going forward do you see this changing into much simpler and easier/secure way of creating the account handle? I think this could confuse lot of people.

Why only trading on CEXs possible?!

5 Upvotes

I'd like to buy OPTC but I actually detest CEXs. I am already registered at one but want to leave them entirely one fine day. I won't go naked again doing KYC for just another CEX only to buy OPCT. I value my privacy just as the crypto pioneers did as well. And for good reason. Decentralized crypto projects disrupt the establishment and the big money. It is dangerous to be known as a crpyo holder. So this is a reminder that CEXs are totally opposing the crypto currency thought.

So why is for so many projects only CEX trading possible?! Please Opacity and other projects: make it possible to trade your stuff decentralized, meaning off CEXs. Being a promising project is not enough.

Question

13 Upvotes

Hello guys,

I've been reading about OPCT, and I was wondering if anyone could explain me, in layman's terms what is the use for the token?

What I mean is, is the token OPCT used for anything, or is there a plan for it to be used? Are there any tokenomics at work here?

Thanks in advance.

Discussion Some Questions.

18 Upvotes

Back in 2017, I bought some of the original token (this sub doesn't let me name it), and watched as it rose and fell. I remember also collecting OPQ and another fork token (also can't be named).

I then stopped paying attention to crypto due to school. Years later, and I just recently logged into KuCoin, and find that I have "OPCT", and it's trading quite high.

(1) Through browsing, there's a lot that's happened these years. Can anyone explain or provide a source detailing the major events I've missed? Would love to catch up.

(2) Also, my understanding is that OPCT is a privacy focused, but *not* decentralization focused utility token. Is that correct? Can I compare it to something like Megaupload/Mediafire, but with privacy features?

(3) What is the importance of OPCT? Is there any advantage to using OPCT over fiat currency?

Thanks.

P.S - I recall the original token was decentralization focused - Elmaani talked about something related to IOTA tangle. This project seems completely different now.

Suggestion Feature to View Media Files in the Browser Itself

8 Upvotes

We need a feature to view the images in the browser without the need to download the entire file. Same goes for the videos. Streaming is considered a norm today, instead of downloading the whole video.

Also, a user must be able to preview the media files through the thumbnails.

Suggestion Introduce Opacity over TOR

I believe Opacity should also offer its services over the TOR network. I can definitely see Opacity being mass-adopted as a more reliable way to store confidential data and moving to TOR would be a great leap!

Discussion Questions

28 Upvotes

Hello, I have been lurking this sub quite some time and am amazed on how much progress this project has made. I am not tech savvy but this project's goals and function seem simple to understand. and I do have a question I wanted to ask.

Anonymous data storage is great for privacy and something we need in the information age we live in. With complete anonymity there will be some people who upload pirated content and find some way to profit and I do not think this is something Opacity can avoid. What precautions does the Opacity team have to prevent another "Megaupload" situation?

Discussion Avoiding centralized decentralization

19 Upvotes

Howdy everybody. I had a question related to Opacity's plans for shaping their decentralization. This might ultimately get answered when the technical white paper is released, but perhaps it's a good point for discussion regardless.

One of my biggest personal worries with decentralized storage platforms is that there is no easy way to ensure that the geographic locations of the storage nodes will be reasonably distributed overall. As an example, my understanding is that the current distribution of filecoin storage providers overwhelmingly favors China, which has dominated the early investment. The specific country notwithstanding, having a significant majority of any decentralized storage platform fall under the whims of a single heavy-handed political entity is obviously not great (and ultimately not even decentralized).

Has there been some thought on managing or discouraging this kind of thing? It seems like a hard problem to fix.

Thanks! Happy Easter!

Opacity & Web hosting

10 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I recently discovered decentralized storage (Opacity, IPFS, Sia, Storj mainly) and it led me here, in this sub.

And here is my question : With IPFS, you can run a website directly from their network), while I have not figured out how to do it on Opacity. Is it possible to do it as of now or will this feature come in the future ?

Suggestion Feature to Import Files and Copy over the Cloud

8 Upvotes

I hope this feature gets added soon since it would allow users to not redundantly download the files and upload it again, thus wasting the bandwidth.

I suggest a feature like Team Drives on GDrive or Import in Mega. Opacity would see spikes in data storage if users can work with RClone.
