I'm looking for some mac support. I downloaded the Pre-release of the Sia beta v0.6.0, and was wondering if there was a GUI app instead? Possibly a previous finalized version for mac? Thanks in advance

Good question. But I think Sia's aim are more business oriented and they're not concerned about siacoin valuation. The business would automatically establish value for the company, especially if large deals come out in the news. So this to me is a proper investment.

But marketing to businesses is definitely important so I'm also curious if there is a budget for that.

Our goal is to get as many long term users as possible. I think that one of Nxt's biggest shortcomings was that most of their code catered to short term uses. For example, the original Sia crowdfund was actually performed on Nxt, we used it for a short period of time and then we withdrew - our needs for Nxt were temporary.

At the moment our marketing focus is more on getting press hits and organic word-of-mouth growth. The user experience is still choppy, and until we've tuned that up I don't think it makes sense to chase mainstream users - they will get turned away as soon as they download.

On the other hand, we are making attempts at getting press coverage in places like CoinDesk, CoinTelegraph, etc.

We're definitely working hard to grow the ecosystem.

How large a marketing budget do you guys have? You want to avoid problems NXT has had (great tech, no user growth)

how to fix the "siad has stopped responding:1 (undefined)"
sia-ui v. 0.5.2 /win7 x64/8gb ram

the only reason i think is consensus.db reading issue - if you make new consensus-data dir then sia-ui starts well, but from the 1 block and later...
it`s a cure but I got 3G limited internet and no ability to re-download +2gb traffic each launch time  Shocked

This issue has been fixed on the latest branch of the UI.  0.6 does not have a UI release since many API calls changed, breaking compatibility with the UI.  There will be a new UI release around the time of 1.0 or shortly after which will incorporate this bug-fix as well as the new API calls and other UX improvements.

how to fix the "siad has stopped responding:1 (undefined)"
sia-ui v. 0.5.2 /win7 x64/8gb ram

the only reason i think is consensus.db reading issue - if you make new consensus-data dir then sia-ui starts well, but from the 1 block and later...

This is probably a UI issue. Try running siac from command line instead to see if the daemon is running and synched.
tried, it works, not siac but siad  Wink
then tried to start sia-ui (when siad was running), it works, but freezes in a couple of minutes - siad keeps running
 Huh
buggy release - as always  Cheesy

Check CPU usage of siad after launch and if it seems to be "doing something", just wait. After the last update it took 3 hours to fully launch on my PC. Seems like each new siad version forces a full rescan of the database. The next launch was normal.

Yes, but you must have at least 8.4 GH now to be able to find a block each day. You can also use the official miner since it's a little bit faster.

Hi Riseman,

I tried my r390 to mine on win7 with average speed 1000mhs, do you have any idea what's the speed of r390 on linux?
Appreciate for your info.

Thanks.

I don't know but I think there shouldn't be much difference.

Do note however that the developer of gominer has not released any prebuilt binaries and if you download that version you are trusting Riseman to provide a clean version.

Not saying he's necessarily untrustworthy but something to consider since this is crypto after all.
can i use this gominer mine with 0.5.2 beta gui, i mined for about 1 day nothing found.

Thanks.

Will be released next year on Friday!  Cheesy Grin

The Sia wallet is telling me my balance is too low when sending an amount smaller then the balance it shows. What to do?
V. 5.2

Problem was in the UI. Daemon works just fine.

I had the same problem. Had to use an older version to send coins. Then I created a new wallet and it solved the issue. It didn't occur to me to try and use CLI though.

Just bumping this from the official forum.



That's a great update! So glad I invested in sia right back in the early days on the nxt AE. A real highlight in my portfolio!

can we host files on dynamic ips yet?

"The new expected release date for v0.6.0 is this Friday..........."

Who exactly Friday ?? Next year it?
