I think it would be really nice if you could add the average cost per GB storage on the front page.

We're working on a new explorer that is a bit nicer. You can see it at https://explorestaging.sia.tech

We've moved all of our urls over to sia.tech:

https://sia.tech
https://blog.sia.tech
https://explore.sia.tech
https://forum.sia.tech
https://slackin.sia.tech

we did have some trouble over the past 24 hours where we accidentally broke all versions of the 0.4.x UI due to a longstanding latent bug. All old versions are working again, and the next version (0.4.5) will have a patch that removes this bug from the client entirely. Sorry for the downtime.

We do have a new forum now, we are planning on moving most of the conversation there - will be easier than trying to do everything from one thread. Please come check it out - https://forum.sia.tech

Crypti is currently doing a contest:

For the next 8 weeks, the Crypti Foundation is holding a dapps hackathon contest, where they are asking Node.js/JavaScript developers to submit their own Crypti based dapps.Donations to the contest's price fund are flowing in quite nicely, now valued at over $4000 in Crypti (XCR).So, anyone looking for a challenge and possibly some nice price money. Please head on over to their new chat group at: https://crypti.chat and give them a shout. They have some quality documentation, tutorials and example dapps all ready and prepared.For more information please check here: https://blog.crypti.me/dapp-contest-create-your-own-decentralized-application-and-win-up-to-300000-xcr/

would be interesting to see someone create a Sia-related dapp for crypti.

whilst the new explorer looks great it's lost too much information for my liking like network hash rate and difficulty. can you bring this information back?

I know I'm always a little late with things sometimes, but have you guys checked out the new home page with new logo and look, and looked through the pages?

Wow I am really impressed! lol Looking pretty spiffy and commercial now. Nice Job Taek and devs! I feel like we are entering the mainstream now  Wink

Luv it!

I was reading up on granite coin a few days ago and almost mined it for a bit... but got sidetracked at the last minute with a new coin launch with "GPU's" so,,, still mining that a bit longer, then I may jump in the Granite pool for a bit.

I get bored and want to GPU mine occasionally and collect some coins  Wink

I have already mined my fair share of Sia at launch,,, was one of the fortunate ones to snag enough to keep me involved lol But I have really got into this Sia concept,,, everything about it. And the way its being serviced with its own coin. The free market will set the price standard based on the Sia product and reliability. Its is cutting edge and is powered by crypto that's the best part!

I can't resist the urge to post a +1 on this. Great work.

New explorer looks great and it ties in with the new Sia look and theme. So great to see all of the new enhancements on all fronts.

Thanks for posting all of the .tech links

Keep at the great work, very impressive  Cool Little by little the stage is being set for Sia....

Wow sounds like you got your hands full! lol

Have a safe trip, 16 hours is right much. Will be keeping an eye on granite. Ya I have some old dell servers on standby if the demand is there for Sia. Not as much horsepower as you mentioned, but along with everything else it should add to the fun maybe with dedicated servers/storage for Sia.

K, take care!

tanx ...

im working on granite in a big way ... a lot to do with a lot planned ... so i hope all that is getting done will be to the satisfaction of everyone that is involved in granite ...

but this week is a difficult week for me being away for a minimum of a week ...

having said that though - when i first found out about sia - i was not only intrigued - but as a miner - got right into it also ...

like you - i have various interests here in cryptoland - but i ALWAYS am interested in what taek and the gang have started here ... its one hell of a project ...

i had a 25TB server ready at the waiting to be decommissioned - only to have it crash at the late week of decommissioning - so that is into recovery mode now and im pulling my hair out trying to recover the lost data i have on there ... 6 drives per raid - in RAID5 - in 4 arrays as a single vm in scientific linux 6 using xfs ... two drives died in the same array knocking the entire system off-line - after a power outage and power kickin ( surged the UPS and server ) - destroying the drives and the whole filesystem ...

had all this been on the sia network Wink ...

when sia becomes massively stable - ill reinstate something much larger than this server ... until then - ill sit in the sidelines for sia - unless there is mining to be done ( which ive also stopped with sia for the time being ) ...

hopefully all will be well - and i wont be away for too long ... which means when i get back - ill be looking at implementing much more than just the mining ... and like you ( again ) - ill be more involved in sia ...

as well as granite - of course ... i wont stop the development there either ... Wink ...

sleep time for me soon - as i have a 16+ hour drive to start at 0500 tomorrow morning with my partner ...

When does the amount "to be earned" that is now showing, become "earned"  Wink What trips the switch to get paid... been a bit confused on this..  Huh

Happens automatically after 6-8 weeks.

=================

Sia 0.4.4 has been released!

https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-UI/releases/tag/v0.4.4-beta

This release features a reskinned UI, an 'upload folder' button, and some significant improvements to the uploading algorithm. As with previous releases, we have also made a serious of bugfixes and minor usability improvements.

There's also a new miner, v1.0.3, that needs to be used with the new sia version. 0.4.4 should have a much lower stale rate than previous versions.

Please don't forget to upgrade from v0.3.3.3, the hardfork is just a few days away.

Which hard fork?

the hardfork that WAS after 0.3.3.3 ...

Can I store my data on the SIA network right now if I own SIA coins?





You definitely can!

Check out the block explorer for some basic file contract stats:

File stats: http://explore.sia.tech/
Host stats: http://explore.sia.tech/hosts


(Yeah, the explorer moved and there is an issue with the redirects apparently)

straight arecord redirects should 'just work' ... maybe there is an issue with the redirection directives ...

Looking very nice.

Transition bug
www.siacoin.com transfers to the new address, but siacoin.com ends up with a dns error. 

I'm sure the team is working on it, just wanted to mention it in case it was forgotten.

Keep up the good work.

Hello,
The nvidia cuda miner (https://github.com/KlausT/Sia-CUDA-Miner/) is not compatible with 0.4.3 (the miner can't connect properly to the wallet, it may use a deprecated method to get job), I don't know how to join KlausT, do someone from your team could contact him about this or fix it please ?
Thank you for your hard work.
Regards.
Yeah, I have released version 2.01 now with Windows binaries.
But I have not found a block yet to make sure it actually works.
