[ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage

[Branko]

SIA is a too old project now, they missed the train when it was possible for them during golden year (2017), now, CHIA will take the lead, becoming unavoidable HDD miner.

Those are 2 completely different projects, one is focused on smart contracts, other on decentralized storage

Sia keeps being developed maturely, thanks to them since they have been in the game for a long time. I don't think it would stop making any improvement since the cloud storage market is predominantly lead by centralized big tech. Any solid project that offering a decentralization of storage will compete to offer a better option for the mainstream, it surely the possibility won't end on the specific timeframe you mentioned.

Hello there,

I recently signed up and tested uploading some files to Skynet and I'd like to know: how do I set a custom timer for auto-deletion of my uploaded files?

I'd like to set some customized auto-deletion timers for my files such as 3 years, 5 yrs, 10 yrs etc.

Is it possible to do it considering the current version of Skynet's protocol?

How do I do it?

Is it planned to be implemented soon?

You can't delete files based on a time set. Let alone on auto-deletion, you can't even delete any uploaded file on portals(Skynet).

As of now, the only time a file gets deleted is if there are no portals that pinned(stored) the file. So your uploaded file cant be deleted and edited. That's how the Skynet works.

Regarding file deletion, Many Skynet portals haven't yet fully support file deletion/unpin, even if there are some portals that have that feature, there is a chance your file still exists in the network if only some portals still keeping it.

as i know autodelete is at 90 days after upload, with the free uploads
