no and not feasible to try, even with a data center full of servers lol 

I used to love secure coin" remember that lol pure CPU most profitable coin ever for me....

I was involved with Burst for almost a year, but this seems interesting. I'd not have any need to store things myself, but could offer some (considerable) storage, in the area from 50TB to 500TB.

Is it any calculation tool showing what I'd could earn (preferably in BTC) by making part or my whole storage available to Sia?

Hey, ya I remember Burst   anyways, SIA is very much in beta mode still. However, it is fully functional. For me it is the best crypto project I have seen in a long time and actually breaks the mold of everything else that I thought I knew

As far as putting a potential earnings on storage rental. It is really hard to say. (and its SIA coin income only) no BTC.... But I will say this, when the more finalized version is released and the green flags are waving I see huge potential in the SIA storage service once the word is really put out there on the street. With as much storage space as you have I would start reading up in this thread and on SIA.com etc.

Get ya a wallet if you don't already. There are "tricks to the trade with it" as in any other wallet/coin. I'd seriously get on the bandwagon now  

Good luck.

Thank you very much for a insightful description It is kinda good that it still is in beta mode but that you can familiarize yourself with it until official release; I got some time to do it when vacation comes!

Unfortunately yes. You'll have to either use the UI or use siac. siac is available in this download: https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/releases/tag/v0.3.3.2-beta

We've got miner binaries that seem to be working for all systems.

Linux and Mac can be downloaded here: https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-GPU-Miner/releases/tag/v1.0.2

The Windows binary was compiled by a third party (be wary of malware, etc.), and can be downloaded here: https://github.com/droghio/Sia-GPU-Miner/releases/tag/1.02j

They are also available through Sia:

Mac binary seems to be missing some files. There is no makefile or sia-gpu-miner.c, so make does nothing. I have tried older commits, and even pulling the makefile out of the linux build , and it at least tries to compile, but the dependencies are wrong so it wont run after it compiles.  This is now above my pay grade, but taek has been pinged, and assumed to be sleeping. I see these commits were 5 hours ago.

Selling siacoins. Send me your offer in price per Million ( 1M = 1000KS = 1,000,000 Sia )

Why do you keep spamming this thread and the selling thread as well? Everybody knows you are selling your siacoins. We got it the first time. Please stop spamming now, thank you.

Sia seems more and more interesting the more I read about the currency... Time to act soon.

I just saw that www.copy.com is testing CudaDrive Beta where cloud storage will create Disk Drive and not just folder.

It would be great to have simple "Sia Drive (S:)" and some credit (SC coins) in my account. Then when I copy something to this Drive it will simple deduct some SC from my account.

What is next step for Sia from user point of view?

The point of Sia is to be a back-end, high-speed, dirt cheap, decentralized, secure database. At least that's why I'm pursuing the technology.

I know and it is great. However Sia or some pioneer must start with first application for end users.

If somebody would like to create "Sia Drive (S:)" app instead of folder, would it be possible to start now in this direction?

Will we have some hub with programs using sia?

Sia is open source and they accept pull requests,
so anyone can join helping to develop sia itself or to develop nessecary interfaces to be used by whatever you want to build ontop

Sia is in very early stage, tho the current protocol is already working.
It will engage more and more people - think of an onion.
The enduser and hence an enduser application will probably done more towards the end than now in the beginning.
Think of a car that can barely drive and you start to ask for a better radio

[marek3ball-orig]

I hope some first steps of nice projects for end users will show up shortly! Can't wait for it.

Next step we'll be allowing you to upload up to 4GB at a time (maybe more) and selecting entire folders instead of just one file at a time. We're also working on a file sharing server called 'Sunfish', which will be open source such that anyone can run a Sunfish server.

New Release Available

https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/releases/tag/v0.3.3.3-beta

https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-UI/releases/tag/v0.3.3.3-beta

The in-app 'update' button does not work very well, it's recommended that you disregard the update button and download a fresh install.

There is a new command in siac for merging wallets. If you have coins in multiple wallets, you can use the merge wallets command to load them all at once. You will have to restart siad to see the new combined balance.
