Good question. But I think Sia's aim are more business oriented and they're not concerned about siacoin valuation. The business would automatically establish value for the company, especially if large deals come out in the news. So this to me is a proper investment. But marketing to businesses is definitely important so I'm also curious if there is a budget for that. |

Our goal is to get as many long term users as possible. I think that one of Nxt's biggest shortcomings was that most of their code catered to short term uses. For example, the original Sia crowdfund was actually performed on Nxt, we used it for a short period of time and then we withdrew - our needs for Nxt were temporary. At the moment our marketing focus is more on getting press hits and organic word-of-mouth growth. The user experience is still choppy, and until we've tuned that up I don't think it makes sense to chase mainstream users - they will get turned away as soon as they download. On the other hand, we are making attempts at getting press coverage in places like CoinDesk, CoinTelegraph, etc. We're definitely working hard to grow the ecosystem. |

I'm looking for some mac support. I downloaded the Pre-release of the Sia beta v0.6.0, and was wondering if there was a GUI app instead? Possibly a previous finalized version for mac? Thanks in advance

Keep mining ethereum before these people decide they have stacked enough coin for their plan and they release the pool software they've been using for the past months.

Great trading today for siacoin. It increases to 28% over the weekend. Anticipating version 1.0is quite good for siacoins. More to come with its features. Go Sia.

No. http://forum.sia.tech/topic/185/1-0-update-june-28th-release-with-graphical-uiTaek ADMINS 3 days ago
We've decided as a team to delay the 1.0 release until June 28th, for two primary reasons.
We want the 1.0 release to have a GUI.
We want the 1.0 release to have a wallet that unlocks instantly instead of taking 5+ minutes.
For this reason, 1.0 is being delayed, but will be released with both of those features in place. In addition, we should be able to get a number of wallet recovery and consolidation features polished which currently only have weak support.
For developers waiting for a stable API, we plan on having a stable API sooner than June 28th, perhaps as early as June 14th. We appreciate your patience as we take the time to make sure things are done correctly.
v0.6.1 is almost complete, there is a bug that needs to be fixed before we can create the RC, but the first release candidate should be available early next week. The primary feature in v0.6.1 is renter renewing, however we've also fixed a few bugs, fixed a security vulnerability, and made a small number of user experience improvements. |

lol : with 42 gpu one can solomine and find more than a block per day, no need to wait for pool. |

I will pay if someone want to help me. /Sorry for my bad english/ First install Linux (easier to compile gominer) or (far less easy) keep windows Install sia and let the sync run some hours. Unlock the wallet. Install git and go. Then install/compile gominer (you may need to install gcc libs and open cl libs : on windows, this is not easy). run gominer and wait for the next block found. Alternative : go with the miner from nebulouslab, but you need to launch one for each gpu : not very user friendly with 42 gpu. |

The most profitable way is to solo mine with AMD GPU. |

That very same setup can also be used for mining other things if i wanted to right? |
