no presale

and supply is not limited, tho blockreward is dropping over time to a lower cap of roughly 10% of what it is now

feel free to contact me, incase you want to buy

What's the total supply?

was there any presale?

E:\Distrib\Siacoin\Sia-v0.3.3.3-beta-windows-amd64>siac hostdb
No known active hosts

E:\Distrib\Siacoin\Sia-v0.3.3.3-beta-windows-amd64>siac sync
Could not synchronize: No peers available for syncing


What the...  

I downloaded it from here: https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/releases

Now downloading from siacoin.com. It's 50 Mb instead of 4 at github. Should work better. 

Hey OC you would be a pioneer if you could custom write something that worked good luck.

PS: you would OWN the pool market for SIA if you did. Start wrapping you head around it lol. I am sure Taek and or nemo would help as much as they could, but the SIA wallet is their top focus I'm sure. 

~1 block in 5 days

Yes, I know the Algo, but as far as I see, the daemon is not compatible to stratum which makes it difficult...

I'd like to know if there are any plans to implement stratum or if I need to wrap my head around the current RPC and write something custom

Could someone share what are the chances hitting a block with 350MH/s

If you could prepare a pool for SIA , mate - it will get huge interest of miners to point ON...

I think a pool is definitely in order here.. Either that, and/or a decent miner.

Which algo does Sia use?

Any plans you guys are implementing a stratum compatible mining rpc ?

I'd like to add a pool. Octane uses the same algo, got a pool for that already.

write 9981 and 9982 open.

Is the Sia-UI v0.3.3.1 still usable? Can I still make transactions with it?

this tool will tell you if your port is open.

The FAQ in this thread says:

This error gets returned if siad is unable to connect to itself over the internet. Most of the time, this means that you have not forwarded your ports. You may also see this error if you are behind a firewall or are using some kind of VPN. If you are unsure how to forward your ports, check out portforward.com, a site that can help you forward your port. Most of the time, forwarding your ports is easy, you just have to see how to do it the first time. Sia's default ports are 9981 and 9982. If you are using the default ports, please forward both of those ports.

Hello Taek,

I sent you a PM,

can you give me some news about my PM ??

Thank you very much

How to fix it?

Because Sia is home-built software and doesn't match the API of any existing software, I do not think the standard services will easily be able to integrate with Sia. We will have very basic transaction crawling ready by the end of the week.

If coins went missing, I'm assuming it happened around the time you upgraded from 0.3.3.1 to 0.3.3.2. We changed the way wallets were stored, and unfortunately we did it in an unsafe way. However, using the 'merge wallet' tool in siac, you should be able to recover all of your coins.

While running the latest siad release, you can run 'siac wallet merge [walletfile]' to merge a different wallet with the siad wallet. You will need to restart siad for the coins to show up. I would recommend doing this with all backup wallets that you have created, as well as all the backup wallets in your sia folder. You should also merge the wallets located in '$HOME/.config/Sia/wallet/'. If all goes well, your missing coins may turn up. Multiple people (myself included) have been able to recover coins this way.

You can also use the merge tool to combine wallets across multiple machines (using usb sticks).

-------

I didn't mention it earlier, but we've added a '--force' flag to the command 'siac host announce'. By running 'siac host announce --force', you will be able to announce your host on the blockchain even if the "ports aren't forwarded" check is failing. For the majority of users, I do not recommend this. But if you are certain that you have forwarded your ports (a good way to tell is if you have more than 8 peers. If you do, your ports are forwarded) then you can use this command to bypass siad's buggy port forwarding test.

taek ...

i too have had issues with where the coins have gone and have no way of tracking them ...

coins just seem to go missing - which have been hard earned through mining ...

we would be happy to donate and get a block explorer going at the same place we have granitecoin ( we actually have four - but for sia we would recommend the most comprehensive one ) ...

if you are ok with it ( and give us some guidance with what is needed to get it organized ) we can have this done within a few days and have the block explorer up on chainz ( like ours - https://chainz.cryptoid.info/grn/ ) ...

we recommend chainz because of its in depth analysis and its continuous and frequent updates ...

the only other that is as indepth as chainz is blockexperts ( like ours - https://blockexperts.com/grn/ ) but it doesnt seem to update as frequently as chainz and seems a little behind chainz in facilities ... but not by much ...

we would be more than happy to pay as a donation for the incarnation of the block explorer ...

the owners are very helpful and will have it setup within days - if it is easy for them to do so ...

let me know what you think ...

Unfortunately we found and fixed a bug in the consensus code. 0.3.3.3 will only remain compatible with previous versions as long as nobody triggers the bug, but it's going to happen eventually.

This update should be considered mandatory. Sorry for the hassle.

You can't , there is no block explorer, try to close and reopen both wallets, and make sure these are new versions.
