Very important reminder:On block 135.000 (in about 5 days) there will be a hard fork in order to implement the new hashing difficulty algorithm. This was planned 6 months ago. Be sure to update to version 1.3.0 if you haven't done it yet. Prior versions will not accept the new blocks and so will not sync anymore with the network. Download the latest version here: https://sia.tech/apps/If you need indications of how to update, follow this article of the Wiki: https://siawiki.tech/client/updating_the_interfaceThis is the announcement of David Vorik, lead developer, on the official Discord: Thanks for that explanations man! Appreciate it very much. Thats exactly the case, I am using a HDD. So thats why it takes ages... Thanks for the workaround tip I will check that out. But on the other hand a cold storage is all I need at the moment, because I want to hold my SIA for long term anyway and dont want to send them anywhere in the next year. So yeah, I guess I will just do it that way.
My pleasure

My pleasure I just bought in a couple days ago, project looks awesome, really great idea. My coins are still currently in exchange (cryptopia). Do I need to do anything for upcoming hardfork?

If Cryptopia has their wallets with the software updated to the last release, all should be good. The version 1.3.0 that is compatible with the fork was released 6 months ago. However, keeping your coins at an exchange is a terrible idea in general. Exchanges can crash, can be hacked, can run away with the money, and in all those scenarios you'll lose your coins. Just remember how many exchanges have crashed in the past, even the huge ones. Just remember what happened with MtGox, that back in time was the biggest exchange. I honestly recommend you to keep all your coins in wallets that you control, not only Sia

If the data which is being stored is decentralized, wouldn't it technically make my data more vulnerable?

Sure, they may miss the embezzlement of their client's data, which is pretty disgusting

Just the opposite. If your data is centralized, you can lose your data in any of these scenarios: - A government or the storage company reads your files and shut downs your access to the data beacause of some policy (hello, Google Docs) - The storage company changes the pricing terms on the fly asking you to pay more to keep accessing it (hello, Crahsplan), or simply shuts down due to bankruptcy - A technical failure in the bridge or connection to the storage company - A hacker access the storage company and destroys your data In a de-centralized network like Sia this is impossible: - Each particular host can't read your files, as it has access to incomplete fragments of it, and even if several of them were compromised, your data is encrypted - A large number of hosts can go offline and you'll still have access to the data. Each file is distributed among 30 host, and you only need 10 of them to download the file. Hosts are spread worldwide

Each file is distributed among 30 host, and you only need 10 of them to download the file. Hosts are spread worldwide ^^This comment make me register, well explained sir. I must add that the de-centralization of the data is the future because it's clearly proven that on almost a daily basis that centralized data is at risk; data leaks, Mother Nature damage or even a terrorist attack (EMP sort of) on major datacenters Storing encrypted parts of data on multiple node is absolutely brillant; the data cannot go down, be destroyed or vanish. I have been interested into and started mining back in september. -Edit : hi guys...does anyone know how much hash would i get for minin Sia with rx 470 8gb? tried to find with uncle Google...no success...
I am currently doing 509.6 mh/s with a RX 470! -Beaver from Canada

The SIA tech is the future of storage, i think...i believe someday SIA will partnership with netflix, airbnb, developer, alibaba...and other company who need storage...SIA is so efficient...

Seems not really mooning for the upcoming fork. Also as I understand the fork is not a real big thing so wondering why the price should increase much. But let me know your thoughts.
