Why does a company make a bold statement like this but not back any of it up? Are they a publix traded company and are hoping for a stock bump?

The owner could hold and hope for another fork to happen if it ever does and spend on the fork side. If they were determined and willing to break the law they'll probably wait to do a crypto swap. Trading BTC for another crypto that is

AWS. If not them because in you're worried they'd also shut you down than probably BackBlaze. Could also just buy a bunch of fairly cheap 100 mbit unmetered boxes off OVH/Kimsufi for a total cost probably of ~$300/m.

Reasonable is subjective to the amount being earned and the extent of how hands off the service needs to be. This is very much achievable around $700 - $1.5k/month, does not include the cost of food itself and supplies. This is reasona

It's also important to position the company in this light to prevent telecos being able to lobby hard against Starlink. If Starlink had come out saying they wanted to provide access to everyone the telecos would have came in and said S
