why asic is a good thing for SIA (or any other coin) ?

They want the Chinese mining force to broke decentralization ?

Take a look at this post: https://blog.sia.tech/choosing-asics-for-sia-b318505b5b51

On summary, deploying ASICs kicks out GPU mining from a coin, thus preventing potential 51% attacks from big ETH mining pools. Currently any of the 3 main ETH pools is big enough to account for 51%+ of the Sia (and many other coins) hashrate if they decide to switch to Sia.

Also, Obelisk is controlling the distribution, so they'll never sell more than 20% of hashing power to a single entity, preventing centralization.

this is a very good reason, thank you

Is it true that it would be delisted on Bittrex? How about on other exchanges? Could anyone explain if this is true. I love hodling this coin cause I know it will go hyper on the coming hardfork and support from Obelisk on the release of ASIC Miner for the Siacoin network.
Who tell you this ?
I read about it somewhere, but now I really be stick on DYOR rather than reading on some groups.

That's simply false. Bittrex has actually been working with the Sia dev team to update their wallet software and correct their issues with deposits and withdrawals, which are working again. Why would they take so much trouble if they plan to delist the coin? Don't listen to the FUD out there.

Is there a rental rate sheet for those renting out there spare HD space?

You can check the table "Top 100 hosts average settings" at SiaStats to get an idea of what the most competitive hosts (thus those that get most of the file contracts) are using for pricing: https://siastats.info/hosts_network.html

Sia is really quite cheap atm! Remember ath! With stable BTC alts will soon start a rally to reach old heights!
Indeed, because so it's better to buy some cheap alts like DOGE it's on the hype too right now. Stable BTC means surging alternative coins.

SC looks really promising, but i'm concerned companies like Google, Microsoft, Dropbox have cloud storage on a mass scale in the bag and probably already creating something like this in the background, could this be a genuine contender for mass adoption or is it more specialist?
Well, as far as I watch the video, Sia is competitive as tge latter companies you've just said. Sia will be known especially on the upcoming events that would  happen next month and hope price would skyrocket because of it.

i will buy some conis and hold for 1 year...its good?

Sia can be quite cheap at the moment, hence very appealing for a decent amount of tokens held. Nevertheless, I would suggest to buy something else which could be more profitable. However, make your own decision at the end.

Sia is probably one of the longest and most solid projects in cryptoland. It addresses a real use case, differently from some other projects. It is really unfair to see it out of the Top 100 list of Coinmarketcap, despite all the profit it gave us ever since. I think the market has started to correct that error.

You can check your balance in the blockexplorer. You don't need to download the whole blockchain for that.
