[ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage

[BillCoin]

Seems like the coin is mainly dead on the exchanges, good time to buy in my opinion.

I predict at least a turnback to the area of about 400 satoshis a coin.

We just need to wait for a good announcement from the dev team and we will be good.

Is it possible to drop again to 0.008 this month?

Hi My mac restarted without SIA shutting down. Now it keeps giving me error when its restarting. "critical error loading sia"

Where you using the last version 1.3? It handles sudden restarts much better than previous versions. In any case, if you are just using the client for the wallet, I would recommend you to delete the installation and install again the latest version. You will be able to access your wallet again with the recovery seed. If you are hosting or renting disk space let us know to guide you with further precautions.

How can i mine this coin?

Thank you. I actually have SIA 1.3 which is the latest version. I did copy the blockchain I downloaded from one of the thread to the correct folder. I had it perfectly working, it was when my computer restarted that i couldn't run it again. Is my only option to reinstall again? That actually took 2 days even with the blockchain copied over. Thank you for all your help.

What is Siacoin?

How is Sia different from Storj? Which one is better and why?

I would try first just deleting the old installation folder and installing the client again. That should not affect the blochain, that it is located at $HOME/Library/Application Support/Sia-UI/sia/consensus

Second thing I would attempt is deleting the folders "wallet", "transactions", "host, "renter" and so with the exception of "consensus" (the blockchain) that are located at $HOME/Library/Application Support/Sia-UI/sia/ Unless you are renting or hosting there will be no problem.

Lastly, if that doesn't work I would delete the consensus folder and try to open Sia again. To accelerate the initial sync, download from here the most recent file from here: https://siawiki.tech/daemon/bootstrapping_the_blockchain

Finally the coins arrived at Bittrex, it just took a while. If you have similar problems, just keep calm and don't panic, its just damn slow

I am very happy to read that

Because Sia are hungry, see why here from the article Their invention is valued at $250 million. Here’s why they’re not satisfied: http://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2017/08/07/sia/sUZ0p3EEAsgVuL2aGCeqEJ/story.html?event=event25
While Storj simply issues multiple ICO's to make the ones on top rich.

Whats up everyone!

A few days ago i tried to load my SiaCoin Client on windows and it has been loading since then.  Just has the message saying "Loading can take a while after upgrading to a new version"  Does anyone know whats causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks and have a great day!

Hi guys! i'm new here so Welcome Everyone
i got a question about SC, i bougth some a while ago, made a small income (day trading), then i got excited and bought some more at 820 sat. and now im really unsatisfied because its over a month later and the price is what it is, do you predict a chance for it to bounce back up again?
cheers

Sia is a really wonderful project,
but it is rather plain. It seems that it has gone bad and it is now the price.
That way, if the project gets in orbit it will get bigger.

Everything is possible...

Yep that was when the coin was pumped before the secret announcement when everyone thought it was big news, after the obelisk announcement it all came tumbling down.
I don't think your going to have an opportunity to sell again above the 800 sat for a while now, If anything the price will continue to drop to around 150-240 sat low

I doubt that so soon it will have that price again. See that the price is below 300 satoshi and may drop more, as @khash4u said:

I sold my SC, I'll buy when the price goes down more

is it possible to reach $1 per SC?

Awesome. You have bought the top of an 50x pump. 

I guess Sia could go down to 50-80Sat until end of the year. Better be patient with buying back guys

Next month September we should see a new update
and some more activity on this thread which has been rather quiet lately . . .

[gildinglite]

Got to get the wallet faster, it's so clunky right now and user (un)friendly.

Love the idea of Sia, but there's more work to do.
