Topic: [ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage - page 42. (Read 1382227 times)

Almost all old coins started to wake up today in response to positiveness of market. I was thinking lats night that Sia should also follow the trend and good to see this 20% increase. This has very significant importance because it will give relief to holders while restore confidence at the same time.

offtopic

but what are the current blake2b coins?

nano?

hypercoin?

or does the above come to naught?

thanks

I downloaded the wallet to get to know the design a bit, and I had a question, do these items in the wallet all work? Can I upload files using the SIA wallet?

Do you think these ASICS that were designed for SIA will be good for price? I'd like to find out what the impact would be on the project. There are hardly any coins where a company designs an ASIC specifically for one coin right

Back to previous 'gripe' I have HOW WILL ANYONE USING CLOUD STORAGE KNOW ABOUT THIS OPTION VS AMAZON PRIME IF THERE IS NO PROMOTION OF THEIR

COMING NETWORK? It is not like the current setup is going gangbusters....again, the whole build it they will come thing is fine...but where the we are gonna

hand Amazon Cloud and its centralized not anonymous cloud storage their lunch at 10% the price....no noise..deafening silence ...a big mistake IMHO.

The prices you claim above with a calculator do NOT exist with the fork ...in that, the value of the forked coin will no longer be a speculative coin....(scarcity)

it will be a coin based solely on its use as a token in the above sia-tech cloud storage network.

So, if the fork happens, you basically will be mining air....(much like bitmains bytcom coin) ...the cloud storage network is what will determine value

that's the rub, and the new reality as far as I can tell. All forked coin value will be based on if they can get their vision network up and take some cloud storage

territory..and offer a better product for all their hopeful reasons. Otherwise, it is just a mess of machines making tokens out of the air, from what I can tell.

This is at least a PLAN...the forked coin and progress indeed. But still, long odds for this all to come together enough to pull off at the same time. The project

has to show some legs, and with cluster's of the past ..still looking more than 'wobbly' IMHO. (damn, I hope I'm wrong and things pick up)

Yes, usually having trouble first and that is a normal thing, just wait when it will happen. Hopefully it will run smoothly later.

Noone got fired for choosing IBM either, but how many people still use OS/2 instead Windows or Linux?  

If fork would remove everything from network but Obelisks, and 10 000 Obelisks would be put to work,

1 obelisk would earn $251.83 per hour (thats what whattomine site says, but calculating manually, I think its about 0.5$, no idea where it
went wrong or if I did it right manually, lol)

I just got a notice that at least ONE (of my five sc-1 doorstops) is in the mail

this is what I'd make if they arrived today. Using this Calculator.  https://minecalc.com/coin/SC

This is at the stated 550gh they've only managed to get so far and 500 watts (not sure about watts) and 14c kWh data hall rates


1 hour    -6.62458086    -0.04    
1 day    -158.98994068    -0.92    
1 week    -1,112.92958479    -6.45

Yep, staying in the cardboard box and unopened for easy use (cardboard slides easier) for my FIVE doorstops. Seems to be the ONLY current plan.

Even if they do FORK and use the forked coin for their decentralized anonymous cloud storage vision to compete against Amazon Cloud at say 10c vs $1 Amazon pricing,

as they claim. Still long odds. I see all this stuff hitting the world, then supposed fork, BUT NO PROMOTION OR PLAN AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, to show WHY you would

use their vision vs Amazon? (no one ever got fired from using Amazon Cloud as a choice, I'm not sure with these guys how they cluster stuff up ...that would be a safe bet)

So this whole, build it 'they will come' vision...is just not gonna cut it...especially with their past clusters on this project

but anyway, a fork is better odds than the current NO odds (no fork) so it is that or the above 'doorstop' plan

Earlier in this thread people were talking about it, no idea if true...but without
it, Obelisk miners are obviously worthless

What fork do you talking about?
Can you provide some more info?
I am interested in hosting/disk share coins and SIA is one of them.
I will be gratefull, thanks.

Thats why I think we can't predict how profitable Obelisks would be, as difficulty would be drastically
lower with other manufacturers ASICs taken out of the game

The difficulty is taken from third-party services, so I assume, on a fork, the difficulty from that the new fork will be fetched.

i also was wondering about that ..on a fork do you start on the last difficulty before the fork or do you make a new difficulty with the new algo in some other manner?

If SIA forks to keep their Obelisks usable, how do you know network difficulty?

Obviously, I was wrong with the mining algorithm but that does not affect the estimated calculation which is still correct.

I know...I think you misunderstood my post completely

I think you should misunderstood something,
SIA had its own ASICs (called OBELIsk)

Anyway I would like to ask what is the rate for share our diskspace now.
Is it already worth to start?
Still 2000 SC deposit required?

So SIA switched from blake2b to sha-256? Where are the details about it?

If not, maybe that calculator is not too good, if owner can't even get

mining algorithm right 

heh..using their revised 550gh hash and 500 watts (I assume that is the same) and at my data hall rate of 14c kWh

here it is, in its ugliness below

1 hour    -5.57261422    -0.04    
1 day    -133.74274139    -0.85

does not look good

no fork, best they stay in the box as doorstops

edit: oops..fixed watts to 500

sooooooooooooooooooooooooo   


is there anything to do with my Antminer A3 ?
