first of all, this is a very in depth overview of our network rebuild we are working on! Awesome work and glad you are seeing the improvments!
I would like to give you a little more insight about what we are planning on doing with the / the ERC20 in our V3 network. As you already pointed out, it is used in the network for payment processing only, as its a utility . We are currently looking into good and suitable ways to pay the Storage Node Operators on a more frequent basis. Everyone agrees that having no response for an entire month is quite long. So like mentioned in the white paper, the Satellite is accounting the payment amount more frequently than once a month (e.g. once a day). The improvement that can be made fairly simply would be to send the payments right after accounting. BUT, there are several problems when focusing the . In March 2018 we paid more than 150k farmers and due to the congestion of the , issues with the local nodes used to broadcast transactions, the process took quite some time to completion. Besides the raw time it took to get the payments done, the amount of fees we had to spend were quite high. You can read about that in an article featuring our CTO Philip Hutchins here:
That said, scaling the payment frequency up would mean to spend even more money on fees, which in contrast to the actual amount of payout is getting to a point of non sustainability. To circumvent this issue, we are taking currently an internal test for Micropayments using the “Raiden Network”. If you’re interested, the script/repo for that is found here: The first tests looked very promising and are put into this blog post by our CSO Shawn Wilkinson:
The goal of this test is to achieve/create a payment system, that allows almost instant payments for free and with total visibility to the client (in our case storage node operators).
I hope to gave you a little more insight about the ways we like to improve the payment system as well, if there are any further questions, i am happy to answer them!

On today’s show I interview Joachim de Koning the founder of Internet of Coins.
The goal of Internet of Coins is to create a comprehensive environment for personal finance that gives everyone access to all of the world?’?s Digital value systems. The platform is designed to connect all cryptographic ledgers and to integrate all token systems into an interconnected web through an open source financial networking agent, called hybridd.
Joachim does a great job of explaining all aspects of Internet of coins and it was a genuine pleasure speaking with him! And good news listeners, yes there is a token native to their system! It’s called HYBRID. By the end of this interview the idea of owning some HYBRID of your very own will seem to make a lot of sense.
Even as many governments, including the EU, act to regulate the exchange of cryptocurrencies, de Koning’s Internet of Coins aims to deploy a decentralized autonomous system that can support trading without any trusted third party being regulated by a government.
Joachim’s team has been laying the groundwork for this platform for more than two years and in 2015 they received financial support from the SIDN Fund which was established by the independent non-profit foundation that manages the .nl domain in The Netherlands. The .nl domain happens to be the first country code top-level domain given to an organization outside of the U.S.
Today, after substantial development, the Internet of Coins team, has announced plans to hold a fundraising campaign to help pay for additional development and to kickstart the distribution of its native token called HYBRID. The crowd sale is scheduled to begin THIS Tuesday March 21st 2017 and will be supervised by the innovation fund of the Internet pioneer, NLnet Foundation, the country?’?s first Internet Service Provider that will act as the project?’?s financial and legal advisor.
In addition to being founder of Coinstorm and Internet of Coins, Joachim is CEO of the crypto and security company Metasync. He is also a developer for the NetAidKit, an open-source USB-powered router that protects online privacy, and was showcased at CCC. Next to that he is working on a system to counter large-scale DDOS attacks for Radically Open Security. He has extensive experience in financial markets, including foreign exchange, commodity trading, and automated accounting systems, and is an early adopter of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.
