Another coin thingy? Thanks but no thanks!

I would check out the wiki (https://safenetwork.wiki). The network's been in development for a decade, it doesn't use a blockchain, and the coin isn't the goal of the system (just a feature).

Oh, well, just because you call it "farming", not "mining", it doesn't make it vastly different.
