Oh, you did not updated correctly. The instructions for updating are:

- Close Sia completely (In Windows, you have to click close on the system try icon of Sia)
- Replace the old installation with the extracted files form the 1.3.1 version you downloaded
- Open Sia again

In your particular case, as what remains to be updated is the daemon (the core software, not the UI that is up to date) you can update alternatively by going to the Terminal and typing "siac update". This is ok for this case, not the general rule for updating if you are using the UI.

Once updated, you don't have to do anything else for the hardfork: you will be prepared ;-)

Some rumors say that sia will enter to binance soon. You think we can reach 10bln market cap?
If cardano grow so fast, trx reach 13 bln so why not sia with great cloud storage technology and low price.

Don t know if that s possible at this rate. All this coin is doin is losing value less than 70% from it s all time high which is not a good sign. Maybe the dump will be even harder after the fork like what Happened with NXT. Anyway I m holding someone s bag for the time being nothing that can be done about it.

One thing is certain: hardfork deadline is not helping the price.

Bitmain Unveils the Antminer A3 ASIC Miner for Siacoin

Sia's difficulty is going to skyrocket soon. This coin is going to become ASIC coin only if the development team decides to do hard fork and prevent those ASIC from mining their coin. Is that possible?

Hello everyone, I have sia on bittrex it’s ok to leave them there during the fork?

I am wondering the same thing for exchanges in general and for any kind of coin. Still learning here.

Considering next fork, I have problem upgrading wallet from 1.3.0 to 1.3.1.
Till now, I was doing wallet upgrade either replacing siac/siad files with newer ones OR using siac update command. Both ways are not possible in my case for 1.3.0. to 1.3.1 update.
After doing update I can't unlock wallet using siac wallet unlock command - after pasting password it doesn't wait for <Enter/Return> key, but complaints immediately after pasting and doesn't unlocks wallet.
Tried typing password with the same result. I'm not using UI and this way of unlocking was functioning up to ver. 1.3.0. I had to downgrade to 1.3.0. to use wallet.
Any idea how to solve problem or should I wait for next update?

Anyone using wallet 1.3.1. from command line and having same unlocking problem?

I have not personally had this issue with the wallet. I do from time to time have my pc lock up whilst it’s hosting files. I think it’s something to do with cryptonote miner running in conjunction with siad.  On their own they run indefinitely or until windows decides I need a feature update🤯

Can you try to open it in the GUI wallet and see if you have same issue?  If so maybe is corrupted wallet file.  At that point you would need to restore from seed or create new wallet and send all coins from the old to new.  If your hosting files I’d imagine that’s gonna screw things up for ya.  Maybe hit someone up at https://sia.tech  contact info at bottom of page.

Thank You for trying to help. Wallet file is ok and still working with pre-1.3.1 siac/siad. I'm trying to avoid UI and at all cost making new walet and synchronizing from start. Something changed with wallet unlock in 1.3.1. siac/siad so unlocking from command line is not functioning.
Since nobody is using command-line siac/siad, I'll try to migrate my 1.3.0 command-line wallet to 1.3.1 UI. I'll keep posting about results.

on which exchange the fork will be distributed ?

Because people are not keen to follow the "bifurcation" right now because many bifurcated coins are worthless

I want to store some file on cloud and try to use it, do you have any mature application now?

[shamman666]

all spoils the Antminer A3 asik !!! the price of siacoin will be reduced very much and the release of the asiks from the siakon is failed! who has any suggestions, opinions on this matter?

[aceat64]

Hey guys according to me we need to promote and support SiaCoin... as it is having a great technology and Development team... but due to lack of their advertisement strategy SiaCoin is lagging behind. What a beautiful concept , we must admire it... it might solve the storage flaws and provide us a secure affordable storage facility.

[shamman666]

Yes, of course, we need advertising! and a lot of advertising !!!

why the price does not grow? .... Fork is very soon already

[Yana_M1]

Anyone knows is it able to mine SIA on ASICs? There was some news few month ago. So?

[DanTheHam]

why the price does not grow? .... Fork is very soon already

The fork is set to reduce difficulty - therefore a rapid increase in the supply of coins - as you know, any rapid increase in supply is never good for price. Also long term, Sia has an impressive 3292.83 TB of network storage available, but only 114.49 TB is being used. That's a usage rate of only 3.4% - it is essential that this number starts to increase otherwise, the Sia project will likely fail - having over 95% of your assets idle is not good for any business, and isn't good for people holding the coin since nobody wants to buy it to use for storage (again supply and demand)

Downloaded the wallet for OSX and it's asking me for a password I never created.  How to reset it?  Maybe it needs to sync first?

[Jerry79]

The password is your seed
