Slack good me agree.
why not a slack?
Hi Dev Slack is good and easy to operate from mobile and desktop. Hope you make Sia Slack Group because it is more user friendly and most of the investor now prefer slack only Smiley Btw keep doing hard work i'm just waiting for good announcement. Cheers!

It looks like slack is invite only, which is a huge PITA and not very scalable. IRC channels are public.

I've made a slack at siatalk.slack.com, send me your email and I'll invite you. If you have any idea how to make a slack public, that would be a lot easier on us.

unrelated: I also updated the github readme and siacoin site.

Can I use this testnet address as a redemption address?

The addresses that you generated with 'siag' are the addresses you will use on the full network.

All addresses on the testnet will be valid on the full network, though address reuse is generally not a good idea.

can we get a list of redeemed sianotes by nxt account please. is there any way to see the balance of an address?

http://www.siacoin.com/sianotes.html

This page now includes a list of siafunds that have been redeemed.

For the lazy:

I realy like the idea since it is similliar to storjs which i think has huge upside potential however I am not sure if it will be profitable to rent miners at the start due to the high inflation.

There is not currently any way to import your generated address or otherwise use siafunds. That will change by June 7th. We currently intend on keeping siafunds separate from siacoins, including the addresses. We're still trying to figure out what will be intuitive for the user but also secure.

so the current addresses are all tests?

can we get a list of redeemed sianotes by nxt account please. is there any way to see the balance of an address?

Just to clarify, mining is done through proof of work and no longer through proof of storage where you offer up your storage space?

I'm a little confused. Do you get siacoin by offering storage or not?

You can get siacoin in two ways: mining, and by offering storage. Newly minted coins only go to miners, those offering storage get coins from users who are paying to use the storage.

So yes, you get siacoin by offering storage. It's just not newly minted siacoin.

So, out of curiosity ... as new adopter, how long does it typically take to mine a block and gain some coins in order to pay the tolls that otherwise bar the way to experiencing/exploring the functionality?

Cheers

Graham


I am not sure. Right now, it seems like you'd be able to mine a block every 60 minutes or so. At launch there will probably be a lot more people mining, so an i7 might be able to mine a block every few hours or so. p2pool is supported by Sia,once we implement that we can substantially reduce the variance on mining.

So guys. I need more information about blake2b speed algorithm. Where i can download GPU miner for testnet and check speed on different videocards: i got 5870,7790,7970,7870/

im in the same boat ...

amd and nvidia please ...

currently running both sgminer and ccminer-spmod ...

#crysx

As far as I know, there is no GPU implementation for the blake2b algorithm. Someone is going to have to write that. One of us might do it, though if we get a ton of people mining the coin I think it would be better for us to implement p2pool. p2pool is better than traditional mining pools for a lot of reasons, and I'd rather have p2pool ready as soon as people start wanting mining pools so that we don't end up with Ghash.io style problems on Sia. We have someone who will be focusing entirely on the miner starting June 1st. That's not enough time to have stuff out by the launch date, but hopefully we'll have some good mining stuff ready by mid July.

Can I please have an md5 of the wallet files?

Also, http://www.siacoin.com/siafunds.html = 404

I'm not sure what you mean by md5 of the wallet files?

The link is http://www.siacoin.com/sianotes.html. Thanks for pointing that out, I've changed the OP to have the correct link.

Ok , thanks for the OSX fix.. mine is up and running now.

I sent my sianotes to NXT-K5ZJ-NNR2-4J4B-D92UF tx 16463177275275997679 with my generated address

I have got the new Sia client running, I go to wallet, and I see "create address" but I do not see any way to import my generated address. Is this due to beta? how about some more details, per screen.

thanks

But in general, our mining situation is pretty nascent; it essentially forces everyone to do CPU mining.

Sure, np, I'm comfortable mining from the CPU, I do it all the time.

So, out of curiosity ... as new adopter, how long does it typically take to mine a block and gain some coins in order to pay the tolls that otherwise bar the way to experiencing/exploring the functionality?

aye, i have errors when extracting the zip file on windows. please fix that.

Unfortunately, there's not a quick fix for that on our end. Everything should work if you extract at the top level.

It will take time, but we will be releasing a new UI that addresses all of these problems. I think we can have something by August. Sorry that the timeline cannot be shorter. We will fix what we can in the meantime.

you are doing a great job ...

better a great job than a rushed one ...

place the archive at root ( c:\ ) and extract from there ... windows has a limitation of 255 characters and wont extract anything further than that ...

ours extracts without issue from root ...

but - due to issues with windows vista - it wont run ... the package is incompatible ...

thank God we normally use linux - which will be tested next week ... Wink ...
