And that assertion is based on?
Maybe in the fact that the number of hosts in the network has increased a 30% in the last 2 months?
Perhaps in the fact that the number of active file contracts has increased 3x in the last 6 months?
Maybe in other figures like more than 13000 daily transactions on the network, more than 103TB of stored data, more than 3.3 Petabytes of available storage on the network? (https://www.siastats.info/index.html)
Or is based perhaps on the fact that later this month or on early December we will have a new version increasing dramatically the reliability and speed for renters? Or because of features on the roadmap like file sharing or media streaming? Or because of the new integrations with Duplicati and Minio? Or because of the arrangement with RNDR network to use Sia to save their data? Or because Core devs hired a new developer last month? Or because the development of Obelisk ASICs is advancing greatly (6x more speed than the original promise) ensuring the Sia network will be safe from GPU pool attacks next year?
Thank you for posting this, you saved me bunch of work here! I just hate when people without any research just shove some random shit out of their mouth
