(no one ever got fired from using Amazon Cloud as a choice, I'm not sure with these guys how they cluster stuff up ...that would be a safe bet)
Noone got fired for choosing IBM either, but how many people still use OS/2 instead Windows or Linux? If fork would remove everything from network but Obelisks, and 10 000 Obelisks would be put to work, 1 obelisk would earn $251.83 per hour (thats what whattomine site says, but calculating manually, I think its about 0.5$, no idea where it went wrong or if I did it right manually, lol) Back to previous 'gripe' I have HOW WILL ANYONE USING CLOUD STORAGE KNOW ABOUT THIS OPTION VS AMAZON PRIME IF THERE IS NO PROMOTION OF THEIR COMING NETWORK? It is not like the current setup is going gangbusters....again, the whole build it they will come thing is fine...but where the we are gonna hand Amazon Cloud and its centralized not anonymous cloud storage their lunch at 10% the price....no noise..deafening silence ...a big mistake IMHO. The prices you claim above with a calculator do NOT exist with the fork ...in that, the value of the forked coin will no longer be a speculative coin....(scarcity) it will be a coin based solely on its use as a token in the above sia-tech cloud storage network. So, if the fork happens, you basically will be mining air....(much like bitmains bytcom coin) ...the cloud storage network is what will determine value that's the rub, and the new reality as far as I can tell. All forked coin value will be based on if they can get their vision network up and take some cloud storage territory..and offer a better product for all their hopeful reasons. Otherwise, it is just a mess of machines making tokens out of the air, from what I can tell. This is at least a PLAN...the forked coin and progress indeed. But still, long odds for this all to come together enough to pull off at the same time. The project has to show some legs, and with cluster's of the past ..still looking more than 'wobbly' IMHO. (damn, I hope I'm wrong and things pick up) later brad

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Do you think these ASICS that were designed for SIA will be good for price? I'd like to find out what the impact would be on the project. There are hardly any coins where a company designs an ASIC specifically for one coin right

I downloaded the wallet to get to know the design a bit, and I had a question, do these items in the wallet all work? Can I upload files using the SIA wallet?

Almost all old coins started to wake up today in response to positiveness of market. I was thinking lats night that Sia should also follow the trend and good to see this 20% increase. This has very significant importance because it will give relief to holders while restore confidence at the same time.

I wonder if the pump will be further in the market, which began recently. In addition, sia was added with usdt t pair on Poloniex.

Does anyone know when the Fork will be happening? I am wondering how long my Blake2b miners can be used before the fork. I don't see this date is confirmed anywhere. Thanks in advance.

Got my 1st of 5 doorstops on Friday August 31st, 2018. Thus it was sent to the data hall (buddy) to sit in the box with the other 5 when they arrive, along with the buddies 5 or more. Without the fork we are not even gonna bother to play with them, or open the box....the coin has to fork or there is no point. At my data hall rates of rent and electric, it comes out to 14c kWh. Using this Siacoin calculator https://minecalc.com/coin/SC#That is a NEGATIVE -0.76c per day loss! (x 5 units is) $3.80 a day x 30 days = $114.00 a month (today's rates) LOSS. That is better than a few days ago when I had a NEGATIVE -0.92c per day figure loss! (x 5 units is) $4.60 x 30 days = $138 a month (a few days ago) LOSS. 1 hour -4.22597924 -0.03 1 day -101.42350177 -0.76 1 week -709.96451242 -5.33 1 month -3,042.70505321 -22.85 1 year -37,019.57814737 -278.04 So yeah, a NEGATIVE -0.76c loss is better than the previous few days than the NEGATIVE -0.92c loss. But without the fork, again, they are not gonna even leave the box. No reason to just tossing money away to mine Siacoin at this point with these units. The fork must happen, or my 5 obelisk's will be a novelty, unopened, when they trip over them on my passing in the attic (hopefully years from now) later brad

Already in a wait-and-see mode, expecting that it will be the last few days for my non-obelisk ASICs mining on the Sia chain. Assuming most of the Bitmain A3s have already been shut down - because of the more efficient ASICs (i.e. Innosilicon S11@4.23T/1200W). With the network hash rate at 88018TH/s at the moment, which means that there are roughly 20,808 units of S11 or equivalent ASICs to be shut off. This is epic. Hopefully the Blake2b miners can be used to mine something else.

Thanks for the link. The following is the latest update regarding the fork: The Fork Proposal Just a quick update on the community proposal submitted by FaustianAGI on Reddit about a month ago.
As of right now, the Sia and Obelisk teams are both in favor of forking, and the Sia core devs are working on a detailed proposal. That’s it for now. (sorry!)It seems the details and the date for the coming fork are still not confirmed. Not sure if it is going to happen by the end of this month.

If it will happen, lets make it happen asap, cause we are talking only about this fckn fork, doorstop or whatever we will call it Sia needs a quick development after the fork and the final cloud storage product to be lunched on the market, if not, Sia will remain a shitcoin in a row

Distributed storage has a huge space for future development, Sia project team needs to strengthen the market publicity, Sia project development is worthy of investors'expectations.

Meanwhile, not working network that makes sense to invest $$ equipment wise for HD's and participate. No Siacoin network fork. But hey, I got my Obelisk SC-1 ASIC doorstop,
day 9, still in the box, unopened. No reason to run it at a $1 a day loss over electric. (but who's counting, days, right?) sob! (live and learn)
a buddy did turn it on to see if they work at the data hall....not impressed..no way to set settings the watts are correct (500w) but it only mines
at 500gh, not the 800gh they said originally...worse yet, no way to do any settings ..it is all locked in..thus can't overclock or underclock ...or anything
you plug it in and it runs as it runs...luck of the draw...
so again, this is day 8 (back in the box/off) just thought folk would like to know what is what...
by the by ..at the 'supposed' 550gh they can do with 2 boards...IF they simply would have shipped 3 boards to a miner (one slot is empty) they would make
the approx 800gh they stated (at probably around 750 watts) ..but still..instead they seemed to go the 'cheap' route and pulled a board..charged us the same price
and said they would make a firmware fix to get to 800mh..whatcha wanna bet..they are simply gonna overclock the hell out of the 2 boards.
now, that really would suck, if you CAN'T MODIFY THE SETTINGS IN ANY MANNER...maybe your piece of crap obelisk CAN'T mine in overclocked mode
on 2 boards when they make the firmware/software mods ..supposedly...
myself, if the settings are locked... I'm simply going to make them 3 board units .....with what I've seen so far ..that would leave me with 3 units vs 5 units..
in that at this rate I imagine one board will be sh*t anyway..if not then I'll have a 1 board unit...but again...not impressed at all
brad
(again, back in the box/off 9 days since arrival...in doorstop mode)

I have non-obelisk ASICs but I also own a bunch of SC. The Sia team REALLY needs to focus on the development of the project itself, instead of the coin or ASICs I'm ready for whatever it takes.

Very detailed presentation on the project. Do I have a question that this memory is capable of self-replication of data security or can notify the user when a virus attack? Software or intrusion alert strange outsiders have always been integrated with the memory.

Yes, in principle, this no one has no doubt, and while it is possible to buy cheap coins, I think you need to do it and wait for a more prosperous time.
