has the difficulty adjusted - no more miner mega dumps?
¨

You need to read up...

As mentioned earlier, the majority of coins in circulation was mined PRE claymore.

Its these "old miners" who basicly had SIA mining for them selves that has the big bags and can dump.

If you are a speculator and want to bet big on SIA, why not contact the miners directly and trade directly with them at an agreed price and at the same time the miners dumping don't upset the market. Or maybe this is being done before?

Who set up these massive miner pools to dump SIA - are the devs involved?

Read my previous post a cpl above urs

You've got it right, frostminer.  Reading through this thread, a lot of people scare very easily I guess.  I mean, the coin is still BETA!  Some extra hashpower added to the network isn't a bad thing for the coin.  Yes, individual profits may be lower, but the coin itself is just fine.

I can't help but roll my eyes when people panic and start shouting "this coin is dead", when it hasn't even gotten out of beta.  Maybe because I'm a developer and work in software, but I really don't think people understand that development is an iterative process.  Things are constantly being worked on and updated. Be happy you have a GUI wallet and as much functionality as there is....

SIA has one really great thing going for it, if finished.

Decentralized storage has many real life applications.
The potential here is mindblowingly huge.

Ha!  That's exactly what caught my eye the first time I read the OP: their goals for the future. "The long term goal of Sia is to become a serious competitor to existing cloud storage platforms, including Dropbox,
Google Drive, and OneDrive. We envision a future where even massive services such as Netflix and YouTube will use Sia to
deliver the best user experience to their customers."

What an awesome aspiration.  Sure, it's ambitious.  But it at least looks achievable. The tech behind the coin is really impressive, and I'm excited to see what this looks like in year's time.

Yes this is very ambitious and in a good way. But it not yet close to achievable for the time being. Sia's greatest hurdle is scalability.  Until they get past that hurdle, this project is an experiment at best. I am not saying it has no value, it does. But not in the way we think of it. All dreams and promises are still that. But we have to start somewhere.

I had to do a pc rebuild, after installing SIA on to my new hard drive, how do I load/change my wallet to my original one using my address, seed phrase and password phrase?

Thank you,

Brett

It was only a temporary issue until the difficulty adjusted. Should be fine now. Next month will tell.

Is the rise of Sia over? I think this was only a pumped because there was no huge good news after the price went up. Or maybe we still haven't seen the best part yet?

The SIA was mined previously mainly by users, now, it is mined by the professional miners. So there will be dumps.

So does it mean that SIA will be very much the same like bitcoin? Will the professional miners also become a cartel and have power over the SIA core developers and bypass the community? I hope it's not so.
Is there a limit to the number of Sia coins that will be mined or this is limitless ? Thank you !

No, it is limitless.

The block reward drops by 1 each block(Current reward is about 240,000.) Once block 270,000 hits, the reward won't drop below 30,000. So sia is slightly inflationary.

This is an interesting direction that the SIA developers took. But what is the main reason that they made the SIA slightly inflationary instead of having a cap in total possible coins?

Ok, so for the non-techy among us, for how much longer will anyone buying SC face the risk of massive miner dumps?

Every coin which involves mining faces the risk of massive miner dumps.

But the Sia dumping seems to have slowed over the past 24hrs, probably in response to the latest upward difficulty adjustments, and the lower price (that makes it less attractive or unprofitable for miners to sell at current prices).

But it remains to be seen how Sia's difficulty adjustment method will perform going forward. Hopefully a market equilibrium will be reached where sell pressure from the miners is balanced enough to not bully the market.

I think the dumping is happening right now. You can see the price of the Siacoin is drop at the moment.


I dont know SIA well, but u guys seem to panic easily.

Im sure some the sia-guys can confirm that 95% or more off the coins out now were mined BEFORE claymore.

And.. therefore belong in "fewer" wallets than if 1000 miners would share the same payout.


AND there is where u'r dump fear should be rooted.
There are probably some big bagholders here... and that is not due to the new claymore miner.




On the other hand... SIA has gotten GREAT attention from this.
Check the claymore thread.. Its a big thread with many readers.
And every one of them now know of SIA.

How do you determine the value of that level of exposure?
Free promotion ftw.
