Kim Dotcom intends to seriously expand the range of services provided. Yesterday he
announced on Twitter that in the “coming years” he would launch mail, voice and video chat, and also launch a mobile application. Everything will be based on encryption and other functions that guarantee the protection of information.
The potential audience of audio and video chat is current Skype users who are dissatisfied with the security policy of Skype / Microsoft. The same goes for mail: many people don’t like that Gmail, Hotmail and other providers have been storing access logs and other information for years, providing this data at the request of government agencies. For example, under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Amendments Act, US intelligence agencies have access rights without a warrant to foreign citizen files on the cloud hosting of any American company. Because of this, EU citizens are
cautioned against using American cloud services. There is no hope for Google either: the company representatives
made it clear that they would never encrypt users ’mail, because in this case they would not be able to display contextual advertising.
New Zealand and Mega cryptoplatform can become a safe haven - the safest place on the Internet for personal data, mail and services. Former hacker Kim Dotcom sees an excellent commercial opportunity here.
By running mail, chat and a mobile application, Mega can grow into something much more than just hosting. He claims the role of a cryptographic infrastructure for various online services. With the release of the API, this platform will appear, open to third-party developers.

Yesterday another announcement took place. Mega services can now be paid for with
Bitcoins via
Bitvoucher cashier. Thus, cryptographically secure hosting can be paid for with anonymous P2P cryptocurrency, which is quite logical.
Tariff PlansMega Pro I : hosting 500 GB, traffic 1 TB per month, cost 0,5184 BTC per month or 5.1888 BTC per year.
Mega Pro II : hosting 2 TB, traffic 4 TB per month, cost 1.0373 BTC per month or 10.3781 BTC per year.
Mega Pro III : hosting 4 TB, traffic 8 TB per month, cost 1.5563 BTC per month or 15.5674 BTC per year.
The cost of services will dynamically change in accordance with the change in the BTC rate to other currencies. If you think that the BTC rate will increase, then it is more profitable to pay monthly. If it falls, then it is more profitable to pay for the year ahead.
