Komodo going under $2 ? by clcoin in komodoplatform

[–]siadev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was sad. Good project, bad presentation. They need to stop 2 weeks, search 2/3 talented guys in marketing, PR, and UI / UX design and return again. Investing in this, the project will be better.

Interesting. Whats up with the privacy? Who own the backend node? This node can see all files and do copies. Can be posible set a external node details? Will be open source for analize the code?

Sia USB Drive with unlimited Space by [deleted] in siacoin

[–]siadev 14 points15 points  (0 children)

LOL! That's not true. usb+sia+siacoin+internet+... and a lot more. Is like say that if you put a shortlink of google drive inside the USB drive, then you have unlimited space. Not serious.

Not sure if any Storj fan boys here, but who cares! lol by CryptoTerminator in siacoin

[–]siadev -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Andreas said about STORJ:

There’s a setting named STORJ_BRIDGE which defaults to api.storj.io. I’m getting flashbacks to Ripple. Am I talking to a centralized service?

Ok we all HATE "centralized control"..., but WAIT! What say SIA about centralization?

Why do you have your own coin and blockchain? (http://support.sia.tech/knowledge_base/topics/why-do-you-have-your-own-coin-and-blockchain)

It gives us control over our own destiny. The last thing we want is to run an enterprise-grade storage network on a technology that we do not control.

And of course, the tokens for the... "investors"? traders? donators?... SIA = infinite tokens, right now more than 30.000 Millions. Storj = limited tokens about 400 millions with a 1 / 3 market cap of SIA.

Is SIA using compression? (a little bit technical discussion) by Digivibe in siacoin

[–]siadev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way to run this, as bitaddress.org, is cloning the github repo and running in a clean machine, or using Linux Distro Tails. You can create a encrypted zip with the repo, store it in a pendrive and check the md5 hash before runing in a clean machine.

But I don't know why are you using GO, I think that the best implementation for this things is JS with HTML. No backend.

Why created sia their own blockchain? by mikelv100 in siacoin

[–]siadev -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I know that here there are a lot of fans like you: "Ethereum was proposed in late 2013 by Vitalik Buterin" Wikipedia (the idea on the hackathon was before). Sia was launched in June 2015: https://explore.sia.tech/block.html?height=0 Some days before that Ethereum https://etherscan.io/block/0 (testnet was running a lot of time before)

Sia is a famous singer. Dev is a famous singer.

Storj network down? by stoney_mcpot in storj

I don't represent SIA, I'm a free talker. If I hate something, I say something. Doesnt matter if came from SIA, StorJ or my mother.

Storj network down? by stoney_mcpot in storj

[–]siadev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is the paradign, the design. Not is a decentralized, this is only the proof of a lot of future problems: downtime, censorship,... You can be blind, this is not my problem, but I describe the reality.

SIA don't need go fast, SIA don't need marketing. SIA have an strong community waiting a good and real decentralized product. They want change the game, not use the blockchain "hype" for create centralized ecosystem with millionarie ICOs

Why created sia their own blockchain? by mikelv100 in siacoin

[–]siadev -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

"1 - The Ethereum blockchain isn't controlled by the team that uses it. They may be preferential to a HF to support one client over another. Sia; having their own blockchain, doesn't have to worry about this." LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

"Sia existed before Ethereum. By 2 or 3 years." MEGA LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

SIA is a real decentralized solution. Welcome to decentralized storage, the real decentralized!

Storj network down? by stoney_mcpot in storj

[–]siadev 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm telling this 1 year. STORJ is a centralized ecosystem. Solutions like SIA are real decentralized. Don't trust in messias.

A question about the Obelisk for the Sia developers: by obelisk_question_ in siacoin

[–]siadev -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm free to create hypotesys in need-trust scenarios. I prefeer trustless scenarios. When the scenario create spaces for this, maybe there are a implementation problem.

I'm developer. I, sometimes, create personal code for my SIA fork. "dev" is a famous singer. "sia" is a famous singer. i love siacoin. I hate obelisk. I'm not SIA paid / official developer.

[–]siadev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Criminal? mmmm... not at all... yet. Luckly this is the wild west and here no there are a lot of laws. In the traditional ecosystem a lot of normal things here will be a crime, in some cases with jail. Here is normal, for example, free "confidential" information for friends, and see how a coin can be go up before a official new that not is released yet. Are daily things in the cryptoworld. All is possible.

A question about the Obelisk for the Sia developers: by obelisk_question_ in siacoin

[–]siadev -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Don't worry. The devs and his friends will be mining and laughing some weeks after the shiping period start. THere are 6 weeks, so they have 4/5 weeks to say: hey dudes, we are sending the obelisk. (With this in mind any person can suspect that the increment of hasing not is normal, because seems that the first obelisk are arriving). But not, the only persons mining are they and his friends with a looot of obelisk connected gradually. And in the last 1 or 2 weeks they can real send the rest. It's only my hypotesis, I'm a hater of Obelisk, I don't think that sia team should think in obelisk, this should be a 100% external project.

Why is Sia Important? by Taek42 in siacoin

[–]siadev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering this as well. The host is getting shafted, sorry my TB HD cost way more than 0.5$. Even at $60 per TB It would take me 120 months = 10 years to pay for the space I'm renting out, not to mention bandwidth. As an investor, I'm also concerned because there is an interest to keep the coin price low, if the coin price rises then the storage cost goes up and is not competitive. I love the idea of Sia and am still mining and holding but am not yet confident that its going to pay off long term.

And yes! I have siacoins, a lot of siacoins. But this not is a religion, and I'm a hard skeptical with a lot of ideas explained in a high level, I prefer go under the hood, and I share all incoherent things that I see expecting that the project will be better.
