Obelisk Upgrade Board Sale Details
Dear Obelisk Customers,

We are excited to announce that we will be launching a new sale later today, Tuesday, December 4, 2018, in the late afternoon (Eastern Time). Below are the four items we will be offering:

1. Obelisk SC1 Hashing Board, Gen 1: $699
Purchase a Siacoin Gen 1 hashing board, compatible with Batch 1 DCR1 or SC1 units. Incompatible with units from Batch 2-5. Estimated ship date: February-March 2019.

2. Obelisk SC1 Hashing Board, Gen 2: $1499
Purchase a Siacoin Gen 2 hashing board, compatible with Batch 2-5 DCR1 or SC1 units. Incompatible with units from Batch 1. Estimated ship date: February-March 2019.

3. Obelisk DCR1-to-SC1 Paid Conversion: $1199
Convert a Batch 2-5 DCR1 for a Batch 6 SC1. Estimated ship date: February-March 2019.

4. Obelisk DCR1 Buyback: +$300
Obelisk will buy back your Batch 2-5 DCR1 unit for $300. You will still be entitled to receive compensation for missing the estimated shipping date, which is currently worth approximately $125.

Purchasing
You will be able to apply existing coupons to your orders, and we will also be crediting your accounts with the compensation for missing estimated delivery dates. All purchases must be made in Bitcoin. Please ensure you have Bitcoin available to spend, as unpaid orders will canceled after 8 hours.

Compatibility
SC1 boards are compatible with DCR1 or SC1 miners, but you cannot run both DCR1 and SC1 boards simultaneously. If you decide to place SC1 boards in a DCR1 chassis, you must run a firmware update. If desired, you can operate a unit with only one hashing board installed.

Logistics
The sale will take place through the Obelisk Customer Portal. For the first 24 hours, we will restrict the sale to existing Obelisk customers (those who purchased a unit in Batches 1-5 directly from Obelisk). After 24 hours, we will open the sale to the public, and anyone will be able to register for a new account on the portal and make purchases.

More Details
We will send an announcement later today when the sale opens that provides more details and links to a full FAQs document.

As always, please let us know if you have any questions. In addition to emailing, you can always reference our support center or join us on Discord.

Best,

– Team Obelisk

I wonder if they really will take my (1) $450 coupon for 1 board and (4) 250 coupon for remaining boards? I swap'd my 1/2 off coupons for a dcr1 miner which does not seem prudent right now...

I am kinda 'meh' on ordering (even with coupons) much more than (1) board (hey, its a $450 coupon) ...what do you guys think...the Jan/feb 2019 ship date is clumbersome with the current crypto price dump

So SIA is a platform service provider storage? How to uploud the document into the drain? some service providers provides free storage for storage of small scale, and is required to pay when they need a larger space, how about SIA, do they provide it too or is required to pay to be able to to use the service?

But the inflation rate drops a lot over time to ~3.5% by 2020. And with coin burn in a few years the coins should reach a near maximum supply.

I've been testing the upside trend for the last few days, but I haven't been able to break it and it is therefore very important to keep climbing now.

You are absolutely right! Since I also do not see any special advances ... I'm a little disappointed with the work and attitude of the team! Siacoin has a good potential, but for some reason the team does not induce any special movement ...

IF...they truly get the decentralized blockchain cloud storage network up to compete as they say against Amazon Cloud at 10c to the $1 and anonymous as they claim...

Does not pay to get the equipment for such cloud storage, yet, no hype, not enough movement ..zippo...

without that getting up to speed...siacoin is worth zip

Where is the promotion? Where is a roadmap that makes sense and is moving along?

again zip

For me personally Sia is one of the few projects that really benefits from the usage of blockchain technology instead of just exploiting it as an easy way to collect money.

When it comes to invest in any market first thing to be watched is support whether it has not not. If project has use case to serve something real and potential to grow more also exists alongwith support you should jump on that. Sia is one of the very few coins regardless of the opinions of people is best market for investment at these prices. It may fall further but it has to bounce back in the end.

that's all! Team Sia crap. idiots.

Theres no max supply

Circulating Supply
38.227.008.534 SC


what is the Max Supply ??

thanks

Is this a new contender in SIA space?

https://cryptoslate.com/neo-announces-neofs-distributed-file-storage-competing-dropbox-amazon/

Sia is a great project with a company behind it, institutional money will come in at some point in the future if they can act together

Can someone help with the hosting and address to announce? Cannot get it to work? I am running windows 10 and have HOST Online, but cannot announce.

Now you can at 100.

correct and i dumped. good bye sia, seeeeeeeeeeeyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa later

Am I reading this site correctly that siaclassic has plenty of available storage and 10x the hash rate compared to siacoin, and thus is in much better shape?
https://keops.cc/pan-sia

What's the likely future trajectory? I guess that siaclassic is going to be a massive project given the experimental state of siacoin at the time of the fork, so should be a lot of time before it is clear what will happen, but there must be a lot of money in the bricked ASICs that would be put into siaclassic?

First of all the idiot is in your mirror
There is no lies, and I am out of this trolling
Just stop replying me
We are not at the same level, obviously

Can someone enlighten me on the changes that were implemented in the news version and what are the pros and the cons?

makes even more sense to 'liquidate' the assets then double down on more equipment and this whole project...they would be prudent to take the BTC profits and run with it

but if they did cash out their BTC at that amount of $$ they likely spent it on equipment and their cloud vision and are like the rest of us going 'what the F*ck!* that did not work out at all

we will see...but if it is a choice between tossing more $$$ at projects in the crypto world and taking some BTC and running with it...a lot of places are gonna dump and let the corporation

eat the losses....they also don't want to go back to work for someone like me (thus my dump of 225 LTC and 15 btc later today to get me into 2019 and pay my health insurance for 2019 in advance

and of course, set aside cap gains on taxes etc on the above)

all this sucks indeed ...but if it is flush the business and go work for someone or work for someone again..you are gonna see a lot of flushed businesses and folk keeping what crypto or cash they

can rather than go back into the 'working world' IMHO
