Alright, if so then this coin was also just a target of too early speculation as many in the space are. What features are you referring too? I thought that the SIA platform was already up and running for some time isnt it?
But in general I stick with my statement, marketing is key in this space, it has become more important than being able to deliver on your promises, therefore if you dont do it, other projects will have an advantage over you, even if your project has better features etc. I think one should not underestimate this in the current times.

Yes, the network is already working, and currently 3300 Terabytes of storage are available of which 100 are in use.

The problem is that the part of the code for renters needs to be optimized, to improve speed, scalability (currently renters can't upload more than 5TB) reliability and the ability to recover your files just with your recovery seed. All those items are in the roadmap, and actually the next version 1.3.1 that is about to be released on the next days will be a huge step forward in that direction.

Yup, at least that, to keep investors on track so that they dont loose faith after loosing a lot of money while holding on to SIA. Some regular updates here from the devs would really do good as well.

The developers are being extremely transparent writing weekly reports about the development of Sia and other regular updates. Just check the #announcements channel on the Discord of Sia or the official Reddit

Can I run the forked client in the datadir of the old directory, so I won't have to download the whole chain again?
Thanks.

Just replace the installation with the files of the new version and you won't need to sync the blockchain again. For more details, check: https://siawiki.tech/client/updating_the_interface

Because of disabling my account at Bittrex I could benefit of the previous rise to increase the number of my tokens by trading existed. I have submitted docs and hopeful to be able to start trading with my Sia coins there. I will move large amount and will let only small portion. Sia looking again in good movement.

More people using Sia means more funding available to hire more developers. Cleverly thought...

It is to bad, that devs are not active at least on twitter. It would help a lot. Of course not even mentioning better marketing. Please try to be more active on social network.

Second this. Better marketing could really be useful for SIA. I think there should be more marketing because SIA already got a working product. Not like many other projects that just talk about their future prospects but actually have nothing at all to show. These kind of projects often do alot of marketing efforts and therefore price of their coins/tokens gets pumped. I guess it would really do good for SIA to do some more aggresive marketing.

It's not ready for mass adoption. It doesn't have business grade stability and lacks certain features which are very important.

When it's ready, they'll advertise.

I'm watching volumes since early December. Is it somehow connected with buying before the ASIC?)))
It seems that the price of 50 satoshi, this is the final bottom, and I can not believe that in the summer I traded this coin for 700 satoshi.
Someone in the branch wrote that he was waiting for x20, which is quite possible.

We need this to launch. I'm sitting on a lot of Sia. Cool concept but until it launches, it is just talk.

What you mean launch?

You've been able to host and rent for ages.

I think the storj's market manager was more active than the SIA
the community was more strong than the SIA,
so if the dev team would more active in market,I would hold it more.

I didnt know there will ne a hardfork. When will it happen?

https://blog.sia.tech/reminder-upcoming-sia-hardfork-e0ffcde9ebcc

It was yesterday

Generally, the hardfork might help Sia's network to increase its ability to control difficulty fluctuations, particularly after ASICs for Sia officially distributed to customers and miners.

siacoin asics and siacoin siaberries going to be a game changer Wink

The fork also help to keep Sia network stable over time. It's good ideas from developers.

I upgraded to the current version of the SIA-UI (v 1.3). I tried to update the wallet, but it eventually stops working and gives me the error: "Invalid Argument". Anybody know how to fix this?
