Version 1.3.1 just released!

Announcement post in Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/siacoin/comments/7l41hp/announcing_sia_v131/

Download: https://sia.tech/apps/

Instructions for updating, in case you are not familiar with the process: https://siawiki.tech/client/updating_the_interface

Take in mind this version is including a hardfork for correcting the Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm at block 139.000 (in about 5 weeks), so update your clients before that deadline!

Note: Like the last harfork, this is a non-contentious fork (all the community is accepting it and upgrading), so there will not be a new coin generated. In other words: this is not an "airdrop".

Thanks for the continued hard work! Smiley

Judging by the sharp growth of the coin, it can be assumed that it can easily reach the level of the Ripple or Litecoin by capitalization. Any opinions about this?

Some months ago SIA rose 15X but then we had to watch it coming down again. So I would pay some attention the second time...

That is a desaster... to avoid this happening again you could look at:

Have a nice day.

why there is a so big price difference in polo and bittrex ?at this time polo 124 sat and bittrex at 145

The same reason Bitcoin price is different all over the place. Each exchange feels out it's own price based on supply and demand.

it would be great if we could transfert from POLONIEX to bittrex... if there was not this "completed: error" and lost your 500'000 SIA in a withdraw... seem that this problem is know since months...

somebody here tried to withdtraw from polo this lasts weeks ? or is this the reason of the recent update in sia ?

hope this is a strategy from exchange for a massiv pump comming ... and if possible if i can have my 500'000sc back Smiley

my coin is in sia mobile wallet, what should I do?

When launched, it give message "Unexpected end of stream"

The wallet no longer available in playstore to be updated

Download in your computer the official client (the Android app is not official) at https://sia.tech/apps/, wait until it is fully sync and use your recovery seed to access your funds

How come the wallet does not synchronize? do i need to do any thing?

It is an issue some users are experiencing after the hardfork of 2 weeks ago. It should be totally fixed on the version 1.3.1 that is about to be released.

In the meantime, if your wallet is stuck in synchronization try this workaround to add more peers manually: https://siastats.info/nodes.html

Yup copy and paste each one of those lines one by one in the terminal until you get a couple connected peers.

Hi

Some time back i downloaded sia wallet had a look at it and remove it again. Now i have bought some siacoin and want them in the wallet, but it ask for password that i dont have because i didn't have any use of it at that time. How do i fix this?

No way to access these funds if you did not save the password. This goes for any wallet in crypto - no one else has access to your information, only you do.

Have some newbie friends interested in this coin, shows that new crypto investors are finding sia among all the crypto madness.

2018 could be a great year for the price of Sia, forgive me i dont want to dig around but could anyone link me to a calculator or give me a rough idea of what kind of returns to expect from allocating hard drive space to sia? Thanks, happy holidays to sia community

SiaStats has a table with the average settings of the top 100 hosts of the network: https://siastats.info/hosts_network.html . When a renter makes file contracts, the client picks up those with a high score, so these top 100 are who get most of them. Currently they ask for 71SC/TB/month in storage and on average 20SC/Tb in bandwidth.

Currently there is much more storage offered by hosts than what is being used (a 3%) so currently it is not being profitable, unless you already have some empty TB sitting in a computer connected 24/7. However, once the usage increases it could be an interesting business: making about $1-2/TB/month you can ROI your disks in 18-24 months, and if you purchase NAS or datacenter-grade disks they will last 5 years or more. Electricity costs in hosting are irrelevant compared with mining (a 4-5 disks NAS box consumes less than 50W).

Happy Holidays too!

There is always a long password generated when you create your wallet, hopefully you have saved it somewhere.. have you ?

No i did not save it. Just had a look at it, to see how the wallet was. thought i could downloade it and open a new one, one's i decided  to buy siacoin. So is there a way i can make it forget my computer? Or can i use another computer to get a password and use that on my own?

If you didnt save the passphrase at the start of opening the wallet then there is no way to access those funds.

I dont have any funds there. I just download it that time to have a look at it. now i want to use it and send coin in to it. so there is no way i can open a new one on my computer?

There should be an option to generate password/backup the wallet once youre inside. Do you see those options?

I cant find where to generate new password or wallet.

Go to the UI Terminal and type this command: "wallet init --force". That will destroy your current wallet and create a new one, providing you a recovery seed. Alternatively you can just delete the old wallet folder. In Windows is located on c:/users?you_user/appdata/roaming/Sia-UI/sia/wallet On MacOS on $HOME/Library/Application Support/Sia-UI/sia/wallet


I read this new:

24- December SC 1.3.1 release
         1.3.1 General Availability (public release) is expected next week.


I would love to know where those websites get their info from (pro tip: the fabricate it). We are very close to that version release, but  the developing never announces it for a specific date, they just release it as soon as it is ready. It can happen today, tomorrow or in one week, but that version is almost ready. Beta-testers have been testing the RC4 version these last days successfully

Thank you. I just delete like you said.
