Siacoin going to the moon?

Well lads, I've been watching this coin for the last several months. The Siacoin concept and technology is amazing. It's popped in and out of the top 15 of trade volume for the last few months and has made almost 1000% since it first debuted three quarters ago.

They're coming out with their 1.0 update anytime today and speculators are freaking out about the potential.

What do you famanon?

nice try user, but we both know it won't go up

they just said 10 minutes ago on twitter that they need a few more hours to get everything perfect for today's release.

im definitely going in. it is a working, functional product that can help solve problems on both sides of the transaction. it is the most revolutionary move in cloud storage possibly to date.

SC to the moon...yes.

i dont know about october but over the next week, i definitely expect a green up arrow and i'll have to watch them develop and see if they can step up their PR game because it's a pretty cool thing they offer and a pretty cheap coin.

gotta gotta keep an eye on these things. a lot of people probably dont know they should've moved their ether to SC a couple hours ago. but that's how it goes sometimes.

Yeah totally, I'm not sure what I think about it long-term. Reading through their info and interviews, them offering a secondary currency sounds like it would kill value long-term. But short-term over the next few months, I think it's capable of doing some good things. It's probably the most sophisticated and well engineered coin project I've come across so far.

I still think ETH has a lot of potential too but I sold 90% of my holdings a few weeks ago for a nice little profit.

i dumped all my eth on the market this morning when people started tweeting about soft fork vulnerability possibilities and the price dropped down to like 13.60 now it's down to around 12 bucks. but that idea, the decentralized world computer, has longevity. with eth specifically or without them.

SC is the play of the day though I do agree with you on that for sure.

can't wait to see what happens with the 1.0 release!

Yeah man. I don't see any other good short-term buys at the moment with the halving in six or seven days. Too much risk in that short term. I'm hoping SC has a nice increase in the next few days. Sell half my SC holdings for BTC right before halving. And then re-evaluate.

That's a best case scenario.

They fill different roles in the market, and have different purposes. I think both have a future, but there's a lot to be decided yet, for both platforms.

siacoin is totally gonna be a boon for kiddie porn, tho. Just sayin'.

Good thing or bad thing for price? I would think having to buy contracts would deter pedos?

the person sending the data can still be compelled to give up their encryption keys. unless they lose them i guess.

but everybody uses storage. some people and companies use a lot. and true, some people want things stored elsewhere for sure.

is the contract tied to your wallet account only? If so, it would be easy to buy the contracts using an account set up anonymously, I'd assume. I don't actually know what it takes to set up a wallet, I only know what's in the whitepaper.

Best investment I ever made. I can't wait for 1.0 to come out.

There's currently like 20 BTC of sell orders walling off any real progress. Once I see those disappear I'd consider it

To the moon people, just put 1.6 BTC into SC.
Was this the correct thing?

Oh my fucking god every single time I come back, every single time, there's some new zero-substance shitcoin being shilled by the resident NEET.

Do you have any fucking shame you filthy poorfag?

>decentralized storage
>zero substance

A poor neet wouldnt have money to pump or invest. One might even think you're the poorfag who is too poor to ride this money train.

Read up on it... plenty of info out there.
youtube.com/watch?v=hO2AITSLUBU

zero-substance shitcoins are the bitcoin clones that do nothing but the same old thing bitcoin does (but with less reach) aka pass around a looooong accounting ledger.

some new blockchain technologies are occasionally innovative technologies.

yeah i think it was the right move.

>zero-substance shitcoins are the bitcoin clones that do nothing but the same old thing bitcoin does
Pretty much.
Sia is fighting to get 30 million TB of storage that is up for grabs. While every other alt is trying to fight for the hill where bitcoin has been deemed king, Sia looks for a new hill and fortune. It's quite possible that Sia might overtake bitcoin itself in terms of market cap in the next few years.

This new update has been a long time coming.

I hope it doesn't dump. It went down 10 satoshis in 5 seconds.

It's fine. It's just two people who dumped hard.

and if a couple people sell, it will make other people sell. but if it lowers the price then that's a good time to buy more. but it is hard to not be a coward when you are watching and predicting and knowing what will happen very shortterm with other speculators

Can we get a /cyrpto/ board? Stuff like just shits up the catalog

stuff like this*

I don't know why people would sell right before the big important update.

...

because nobody wants to be left holding the bag. if they see a predict incoming sells. because of a number or chatter in the poloniex chat box or anything else.

totally new too cryptocurrency. How do I buy coins.

Do I have to download the app and let them use my storage space?

Use circle or localbitcoins to purchase btc with USD.

You'll store it in a wallet, which is a certain long string of characters that's your address. You send someone money by sending it from your wallet's address to their address.

Electrum is recommended wallet as it's lightweight. The official btc wallet will have you download the entire public chain which is like 5GB and takes a while to sync.

You don't need a wallet on your PC, however, you could just send it to your exchange account's wallet. It's just less secure if you're going to be holding large amounts.

Correction of 12AM (midnight tonight) not PM

OH MY GOD I want to buy SIA coins but a USD deposit to buy btc takes a day and I'm afraid SIA is gonna go through the roof when the 1.0 version is released. Now I can't buy SIA on time and I'm gonna shoot myself if I got into this thing late. All I have are trumpcoins, should I convert them into SIA

you could buy from paxful or a bitcoin atm if one was near you but i know with the paxful option you'll probably pay as much in the higher convenience price as we're gonna make tonight when siacoin goes up 20-40% tonight

Man, look at the trade history people are loading up on SIA on Poloneix. Definitely going to hold for 72 hours and see what happens.

Host down when I want to buy. If this shit takes off to the moon im offing myself

>One might even think you're the poorfag who is too poor to ride this money train

Its the fact that I'm the opposite of poor, that is the reason why I'm not involved in dead-end shitcoins, why would anyone with money be shilling shitcoins? We all know you're the NEET, you have absolutely no fucking shame.

Nobody here is a techie by any stretch of the imagination. It looks like you all just constantly refresh Bitcointalk or some other crypto forum waiting for some dev to announce something, scrape barely enough information to shill it here while looking competent to the other retarded plebs then advertise the pump and get out at an appropriate time.

Its a fucking cycle, it happens every couple weeks, something new and revolutionary apparently comes along which is glorified, then never heard of again. Anybody who actually understand anything in tech or crypto knows Bitcoin and Ethereum are the only things wit influence, fundamentals and traction in the real world. Who do you seriously think you're fooling? I bet I've spoke to you before, I must have, you've shilled at least 5 other altcoins before I remember that way of talking. I mean both of you if you're not the same person from a phone on cellular and a computer.

You're either working for or are too dumb to realize all alt-shit is made by the same group of devs who've made literally hundreds of shitcoins.

Why do you guys think it's going to moon when there's well over 100 btc of sell orders preventing this from going over 193?

Sia Tech
@SiaTechHQ
A few things came up during the final checks, we need a few more hours. More info to come.

1800+ in BTC volume in 24 hours period not counting when the hype train hits in the next 72 hours.

tick tock. guess i'll watch a movie or something and keep the charts up on the side...

i'm ready for this SC moon trip though

You still haven't explain how Sia is a shitcoin.

of course it's cyclical you moron. if we were just trying to get in on the ground floor of a longterm project, we would keep that mostly to ourselves and work on acquiring as much as possible.

do you know what day trading is? do you know how prices are affected by news and product releases? hype trains and product releases are for dealing with it short term. any investment would need to be evaluated for longterm merit independently of what would make it spike for a night or a week or a few hours.

the more people that buy and promote it the higher it will go in the next few hours after the release. then you leave when you want; that is the way it goes. you buy the hype because the hype and buys are what makes it go up.

if you dont have enough money to where a 25% increase in one night would help you (like if you only had 10 dollars, you wouldnt care much about 2.50) then i understand exactly where you're coming from and I hope your mom empties out your piss bottles before you over-fill them later.

market user here:

i posted this months ago pic related

at this point i might cash out, its hard to say, buy rumor and sell on news.

After the dip id buy back in , it could moon, however it could also just go down. This i dont know but pic related was an obvious sign

also posted this a couple days ago

now all i need to do is listen to my own advice kek

user is there a forum or a board you post on or follow? I wish to learn more from you and your sources.

Not being sarcastic, I've followed your posts on here and want to learn more.

>i posted this months ago pic related
Still eternally grateful.

nope lone wolf here

i just look for patterns and research

I also like to share to help others out

Im not sure how much higher nxt will go at this point
I started off with faucets, got to 10k satoshi and started trading, a year ago

Best thing i ever did was make my mistakes with 100k satoshi and learn ,rather then thousands of dollars.

>buy rumor and sell on news.
Also, buy the rumor sell on the news only works when you don't know if something is coming out or not. This is more waiting to see if the product released is good or not.
If it's good, it'll fly, if it doesn't, it'll dip/dump.

yeah thats where it gets me nervous, those days i either increase my stack of slowly end up with less, either way ive learned to take profit when i have it and be happy

Sia Tech
@SiaTechHQ
.@will1hardworker @JuanDFacundo no still today, should have said 12AM. We're testing now, hoping it won't take too long anymore..

What was it about SIA and NXT that tipped you off they were going to moon?

I swapped my ethereum for sia yesterday. With no news of new ethereum crowdsales, Im thinking this will get attention because its the first blockchain to offer something besides just "another currency". Even better, they beat out amazon and Google (who haven't said much in the way of blockchain) prices by a at least a factor of 3. If they can pull this off it will be huge, especially if it allows people to host illegal things online without repercussions.

Their project on github is basically done right now, just waiting for the release.

The team finished 1.0 but are working on the code and exe to get it working for causal people (idiots like me)

>when the price tanks but u don't care 'cause you believe In the coin and you're not on margin

It's out.

github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Well first it was research:

> i like what sc had to offer

>bought at 15 sold at 30

>saw an ascending triangle pattern bought at 30 again

Nxt

>back when i had only some btc and doge from faucets i liked it but never bought in

>saw some news about it

>saw it going up

>shit shit i missed it hmm i see a bullish pennant forming

>buy in at 2600

honestly its a combination of good tech, news, rumors, and patterns.

when it comes to random pump n dumps its harder to say

i almost scored 2000% profit from expanse but went to work instead

NEM i noticed at 50 satoshi, i loved the tech, loved it was coded from scratch and the fact is was made by a Japanese man, sadly i sold at 400.

If i could quit my day job and leave my family to focus i would not miss out as much.

research, research research my friend

so far all of my favorites are moving

i persoanlly never ever got into eth

top kek i bought in once and said nope sold for something else, hours later eth it was hacked, i thank god for that one

what do you reckon might be the next alternative to get pumped?

what is the max this coin will ever get to?

welp it's out.

time to kill mysef

see ya guys

here a list of what i liked since jan, and a couple since may

>xem
>sc
>dgb
>lsk
>nxt

now when lsk and dgb will hit idk

im waiting on rumors, news and patterns, so far its no certainty

those random PnD are a shot in the dark, ive scored on qora and others before but thats a risk

so the next one?

>idk

but i like what dgb is showing and my finger is on the trigger to buy, im currently trying to accumulate btc to buy more of both, but dont bet on it yet

I actually have been doing heavy thinking and research of where crypto should be taken too, and if i could come up with a good team to help i have some ideas that can be huge, i just need some anons to help

reporting in chief

Anybody downloaded it yet? I am synching right now, the UI looks cosy as fuck


Don't worry, I doubt it will go to the moon so fast, you should be able to catch up


>im waiting on rumors, news and patterns, so far its no certainty
let us know when you get a good tip. Personally I am starting to get obsessed with cryptos. Not sure if it's a good thing or not. I agree that those show promise, although I am skeptical about dgb.
> i just need some anons to help
I am no developer or PhD brainiac, but if I can give a hand anyway I would be glad to do so.
What do you think about FCT? I think that has a lot of promise too. Also nobody is shilling it even if it keeps going up recently, which is a good sign it is legit.

I never really looked into it honestly. i might just to see what it has to offer

Have you looked into DGB news and community at all?

They actually have some interesting things to offer, if anything at all its a nice way to double my coins at some point

>also

i forgot to mention sometimes i day trade, which is risky, ive made some serious gains and losses this way.

Stay obsessed and learn, but one thing of advise if you find your self slowly losing your assets, stop, walk away, do some yard work, or something, come back with a logical attitude

>UI looks cosy as fuck
Is it just text based? I only see siad and siac.

you might be lucky on this one anyway. not much action (yet anyway). a more vocal hype and colluded pumping is a lot more effective

iktf
bitcoin coming in tomorrow
;-;

the UI is here:
github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-UI/releases

>Have you looked into DGB news and community at all?
Not much, but it put me off the fact that they announced partnership with Microsoft, gave that super hyped speech and yet it didn't moon at all. If that doesn't trigger a race to the moon, I don't know what will 2bh. I sitll think it's a good idea though, just not as revolutionary as SC.
>i forgot to mention sometimes i day trade, which is risky, ive made some serious gains and losses this way.
I have tried doing that but I am a noob and ended up hodling too long and losing whatever I had earned. Didn't lose much at all, but I could have doubled the value of my coins and I didn't. I get better everyday though, I guess it's all a matter of practice and experience.
>if you find your self slowly losing your assets, stop, walk away
Yeah, I have already come up with ways to at least cut my losses if I fuck up, and ways to avoid fucking up. I am a fast learner, but sometimes I just stop thinking about it and clear my head.

I have another question. DId you look into Plutus? Their ICO expires on the 30th. I am undecided whether I should put some money into it, it looks promising.

Use circle

I just downloaded the SC app...

...it's actually really impressive and a cool idea.

No bullshit, this is a really sweet idea.

THAT'S WHY I HAVE 200K SIACOINS MY FRIEND!!!111!!111!!!1!!!1!

really though, the app is quite impressive.

I wonder if there's a way we could get this in the hands of the dark and black hat communities? If this thing gets adopted and word of mouth love from people doing sketchy shit, this thing will take off.

jesus christ how long does it take to deposit btc on poloniex? its my first deposit there btw...

in the meanwhile you can download the software and synch the blockchain, which takes quite a long time

By the way, here's the place to download the app and check it out.

sia.tech/

thank you friend

Bought in a few hundred thousand coins just before release, definitely going to hold for a long period and hope for the best.

i would buy some now if poloniex would ever send me a damn confirmation email

only 55k here, doing the same tho

i don't think they're doing enough marketing, but i feel that within the next months and up to a year its really gonna take off

I have some serious doubts about this crypto. It is a nice concept, but I have a feeling it will remain in the novelty phase. The renting prices keep going down ($1/TB is the competitive price), and there's 88 TB of free space available. Too much space and not enough demand. There's very little ROI for farmers. I think I'll just wait for MAIDSAFE.

Did anyone buy in when it was around $.00002?
Would have made quite a nice investment by now.

The pump has just started.

I bought a lot at 36 sat back in march. It's been a very good investment.

>waiting for something that will never happen

nice must feel good about that investment

>look at all these fantastic features, already available for you
>fuck that, not good enough, wait for something inferior to come out in the future

MAID is the ideal candidate for the expression 'having eyes bigger than your stomach'.

Im guessing this is more of a long hold? Where do we see the ext few resistance points?

Hard to say honestly, since it keeps going up.

Someone posted their initial experiences using SIA app.

steemit.com/sia/@java1959/sia-coin-cloud-storage-releases-version-1-0-0-rent-your-unused-hard-drive-space

very nice software

it cost $11 to buy 10 GB for 6 months, so a 500 GB hard drive is worth over $1000 per year at these prices. It looks like the money went to a lot of different people.

another issue is that the uploads progress bar isnt accurate, because I was able to download the file before it finished uploading

we need to develop a plugin that lets people download music/games/movies from other host contracts for like $0.05. Then sia could torrents because no one has to seed anything.

the coin's price was supposed to go up after they released their update, but its gone down instead. what's up with that? bad reviews or someone just panic dumped?

Releasing in the dead of night probably didn't help, the price hasn't fluctuated at all really since it came online.

well it was at 147 this morning, and is currently at 137 on poloniex

>I think I'll just wait for MAIDSAFE.
MaidSafe is interesting, but has an entirely different target audience and set of claims. They do not compete, so don't use it as a reason not to buy Sia.

down to 130 now even

sc next stop at 80

People expected it to go up, so it didn't.

just dumped my 10mil sia lel

will buy back in after it's settled down however

Yuck, that's not what I was hoping for. Guess I'll ride this fucker into the basement and hopefully can stay in until the next pump.

This is so fucked
