Actual price x5 is still cheap for SIA users Cheesy

I think we can go higher than this

How far this calculation will work because there are many whales who are holding a lot of SIA coins. Right now the price of SIA coin is very low and what are the chances that the price of SIA will increase.

sc looks really promising, but i'm concerned companies like Google 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?

In my opinion, if Google is the reference in internet it have to think if it need to buy (or invest) in crypto/decentralized projects.
Maybe it has done. Now All projects are small and recent. Time to time.

For me sia is already valued too much. Mostly china holders holding this coin. in a month it made over 10x. For long term it could be come back to 50 satoshis.

bou !

We can put the mined siacoin directly on the wallet as eth?

Because the address is different each time on the wallet.

I noticed that sometimes during the big pumps, wallet on polo doesn't work for the coins that is growing, so miners\holders cannot deposit and sell their coins.

Is there anyone who is aware of situation with polo SIA wallet? why it doesn't work?

I've also observed this. But this is more common with SIA. Initially, I thought the reason behind this was Polo, but after reading Reddit posts by SIA developers, I understood that it is due to their programming. Possibly, their integration fails when a large volume in place at Polo. Hopefully, it will be corrected so we can sell our coins to get profit.

I've just got response from Zach regarding wallet in polo:
"Hopefully in next day or two. We are still in close contact."

More updates from Zach:

We didn't expect blocks to be filling up as early as 2017, so the software didn't really have the capability to handle full blocks.
But... blocks are filling up now. Every few hours and sometimes several times in a row we'll have full blocks and full transaction pools. It's causing the network to choke. We've pushed out about 5 different fixes for various components of Sia that let them more gracefully handle full blocks, and we've got about 3 more in the pipeline.
We'll be doing a beta release of the new scalability stuff later this week, with hopefully the public release next week.
edit: need to mention that we've given the exchanges everything they need to get unstuck, Polo is dragging their feet but Bittrex has been working with us continuously. They should both be re-enabled soon.

Zach on the overall poloniex situation:

Quote

They are really really far behind. They went from being behind and having 2,000 users always online to being behind and having 50,000 users being always online in like 30 days.
First they had to scale the platform, then the ops team, then the support team, and now finally they can start shrinking the backlog. Or so I imagine. Suddenly onboarding 10x users is always going to hurt, Sia is feeling it too.

From Sia slack regarding fake wallets:

Quote

As a reminder, all Sia binaries are signed by the developer key, and all git tags are signed by me (lukechampine on GitHub). Instructions for verifying signatures can be found here: https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/releases/tag/v1.0.1

If you discover a malicious third-party wallet, or an "official" Sia binary hosted on another site that fails signature verification, please alert us and other users.

thats all i get when trying to load the wallet :/

yes its same problem like me. and sync is very very slow
can you find a solution please?

For both of you: we need more info in order to help you.

- Is this the first time you open Sia?
- Which version are you using? Be sure to be using the last one (1.2.2) downloaded from the team's webpage http://sia.tech/apps/ DON'T use a wallet or client downloaded anywhere else. People is reporting some fake wallets around that will steal your funds.
- Windows, Mac, Linux?

As a first attempt, I would delete the installation folder and uncompress the Sia download again. If problem persists, try deleting also the blockchain, wallets and rest of the files (in Windows, they are in Users/your_user/appdata/roaming/Sia

It is perfectly normal the synchronization of the blockchain takes a long time: it will be about 2-3 days on an HDD or 1 day on an SSD

Just bought my first portion of SC @571sat

Here is a comparison of sell/buy on poloniex:

SELL ORDERS Total: 1000093400.68161130 SC
BUY ORDERSTotal: 1748.00602145 BTC

It means: 3X more ppl want to get it at this moment.
Is This A Good Trend?

It's ridiculous
to become a host I have to pay a bunch of liens, fees and penalties and I'm not even given the money transfer from Polo Huh

Over a dozen wallets are frozen on Poloniex from What I hear.... They have blocked Monero withdrawals for over 2 weeks now. But you should get your coins, keep at it with support tickets

And yeah, hosts are charged (nominally) so that they deliver their promise to host files. IF they are not available for more than 95% uptime they are docked the contract fees.
Otherwise just about anyone will signup to be a host, and disappear after a couple of days and the users will struggle to get their files
Its not ridiculous, its a great idea. This system ensures hosts are incentivised to maintain uptime throughout the contract otherwise they will be losing their deposit

BTW: This is the MIT Bitcoin presentation of David (taek), talks about everything you want to know about Siacoin
