Just it is an update still, we don't have exact details about what they are talking about. We have to wait and see up to Friday, whether it is good for all Sia Holders.

This is no surprise as the leader of Storj seems like a surfer dude just in it for the ride. The technical skills, road-map, and actual deliverables of Sia seem far superior IMO.

What do people think about this announcement?

The Obelisk SC1 – the first ASIC built for Sia mining.

Confused.  ASIC for mining only SIA?  Why?  People are speculating the ASIC miner will have more of a role in the storage infrastructure.  As a GPU miner, not sure what to feel tbh.

I don't think ASIC mining is a great idea look at bitcoin and all the large mining operations that control everything. I thought their announcement was a technical one with cool features, very disappointing news.
ASIC resistant algorithm is what crypto is all about, too bad decentralized storage didn't mean mining would be too.

Agreed. Also, I thought the news was not until Friday - so maybe this is just a foundation for future announcement?

It was the big news. But there will be more details until friday. Devs are writing a blog post for tomorrow:

Taek: “I'm working on a blog post for tomorrow that'll walk through the full implications of Obelisk for Sia's users. From an everyday perspective, Obelisk does not affect users at all. From a decentralization perspective, it's an important step”

Yeah, was this the great news coming this friday or is there something else? Price is going down right now. Sad

EDIT: And I can't do anything with my siacoins because I sent them to the wallet when I installed it and it's taking an eternity to synchronize so I can't see my coins or send them anywhere else, how is it possible that it takes so long?  Huh

I was planning to hold for a while, but if I wanted to sell before the price goes lower, I just couldn't because the wallet is the slowest cr*p I've seen in my life. I don't know the reasons for this, but the devs should definitely work on it if they really want that Sia becomes a truly popular plataform, I can see lots of people thinking "f*** it" and uninstalling it after checking how incredibly slow it is.

just take a chill pill. Btc is rising so fast now. And other coins hard to keep up. It will go back to normal! Probably its better for you. That you did not have chance to sell.

Like I said, I bought siacoins as a long term investment, so I was not planning to sell, but I don't know if it's normal that the wallet sync takes sooo long, and I think that's not good for a plataform that I guess that wants to become popular.

And if I wanted to sell because the price was dropping too much and I could potentially lose a lot of the money I invested, I just wouldn't be able to do it, and I think that Sia should warn everybody that transactions/balances are not available until the sync is completed, and that said sync can take DAYS to be completed, that way I would have been warned to not send my siacoin to the wallet until the sync was completed, and I guess everybody would like to know something like this before using the Sia plataform/wallet.

I downloaded the wallet because I invested in Siacoins and wanted to keep them safe, but if I was a casual user that wanted to check how Sia worked and I saw how long it takes to properly work, I don't know if I would have the patience to wait for so long for the sync. I don't know the technicalities behind this, I'm just saying that something like this should be worked out to avoid losing potential new users.
