Hello there,

I recently signed up and tested uploading some files to Skynet and I'd like to know: how do I set a custom timer for auto-deletion of my uploaded files?

I'd like to set some customized auto-deletion timers for my files such as 3 years, 5 yrs, 10 yrs etc.

Is it possible to do it considering the current version of Skynet's protocol?

How do I do it?

Is it planned to be implemented soon?

as i know autodelete is at 90 days after upload, with the free uploads

@Financisto

You can't delete files based on a time set. Let alone on auto-deletion, you can't even delete any uploaded file on portals(Skynet).

As of now, the only time a file gets deleted is if there are no portals that pinned(stored) the file. So your uploaded file cant be deleted and edited. That's how the Skynet works.

Regarding file deletion, Many Skynet portals haven't yet fully support file deletion/unpin, even if there are some portals that have that feature, there is a chance your file still exists in the network if only some portals still keeping it.

Sia keeps being developed maturely, thanks to them since they have been in the game for a long time. I don't think it would stop making any improvement since the cloud storage market is predominantly lead by centralized big tech. Any solid project that offering a decentralization of storage will compete to offer a better option for the mainstream, it surely the possibility won't end on the specific timeframe you mentioned.

SIA is a too old project now, they missed the train when it was possible for them during golden year (2017), now, CHIA will take the lead, becoming unavoidable HDD miner.

Those are 2 completely different projects, one is focused on smart contracts, other on decentralized storage

Hello , i'm trying to send my SC coins to binance but it doesn't broadcast , don't know why , what can i do ?
What kind of wallet you are sending from? Sia-UI, the web wallet or something?

If you using Sia-UI make sure you are fully synchronized to the network. If you'd care to elaborate more on your problem, others might find it easier to help you.

Sia-UI , i do everything it's supposed to do but just doesn't broadcast . I click on "SEND" , insert the SC adress , amount and click "GENERATE TRANSACTION" , i verify everything and click "BROADCAST" . The next screen that should appear the coins sent don't show up , only a "FINISH" button

I personally haven't encountered that problem, but a quick search able to see others that have a similar problem like you.

Unable to send funds from my wallet, no broadcast summary
Cannot send out Siacoin from Sia-UI
Take a look there, you might find some suggestions.

Also, if you still having that problems after trying the linked above suggestions or want to send the coins ASAP, maybe you can try to use the Siacoin lite web wallet, AFAIK you can recover the seed from the Sia UI to the web wallet.

Does anyone have experience integrating Sia with Nextcloud?

I tried to pair Sia and Nextcloud for personal cloud storage, but I can't find any apps integrations for it. I do notice https://gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-Nextcloud, but the project no longer maintained. I haven't try to use that, did anyone have tried it and it still works?

gagux123, Roadmap Sia: https://trello.com/b/Io1dDyuI/sia-feature-roadmap

Navigating the Skynet rebrand

Quote
With the launch of Skynet, Nebulous' focus shifted from building the leading decentralized data storage platform to enabling a user-controlled, truly decentralized internet. As a result, our company has completely rebranded into Skynet Labs, with all our attention on developing Skynet and its ecosystem.

Thank you so much for this information!

I have a question and I can't understand it... but what were the reasons for not continuing with the previous project?

I found the idea of decentralized data storage very promising.
Was the project no longer viable? Was there no demand? What are the reasons?
Thanks

Isn't the size of CHIA network vs SIA network a bit ironical?

Hello guys!

Well, I’ve known Sia for a few years. I think it is a very innovative platform that has a promising future ahead!
But unfortunately, I feel Sia is undervalued and does not have the recognition that it should have.

In your opinion, what can Sia do to become more valuable and be better recognized in the "world of cryptocurrency" and have greater adoption by people?

It has been a while since I have been aware of Sia's events for reasons related to my study.
Is there any kind of improvement on the platform?
What are the goals in future?
Any news?

Thank you so much!

regards,

Sia, in my opinion, is a very undervalued asset at the moment. Even despite the difficulties the team faced in the past, we can still see that sia is actively developing and I think that in the future we will see more user interest in SkyNet and cloud storage. Everyone has their own opinion, but I see the potential for sia in the future.

What wallet you are using?
Just a warning, don't share your seeds or private keys with anyone else that try to contact you in PM.
Never share your drive with anyone using TeamViewer or similar services because there's a high chance of getting scammed.
STAY safe :l
