ASIC mining rig is a great news!
WHy is the coin being dumped like that?
Such bad news or what?
EDIT: And I can't do anything with my siacoins because I sent them to the wallet when I installed it and it's taking an eternity to synchronize so I can't see my coins or send them anywhere else, how is it possible that it takes so long?
I was planning to hold for a while, but if I wanted to sell before the price goes lower, I just couldn't because the wallet is the slowest cr*p I've seen in my life. I don't know the reasons for this, but the devs should definitely work on it if they really want that Sia becomes a truly popular plataform, I can see lots of people thinking "f*** it" and uninstalling it after checking how incredibly slow it is.
just take a chill pill. Btc is rising so fast now. And other coins hard to keep up. It will go back to normal! Probably its better for you. That you did not have chance to sell.
And if I wanted to sell because the price was dropping too much and I could potentially lose a lot of the money I invested, I just wouldn't be able to do it, and I think that Sia should warn everybody that transactions/balances are not available until the sync is completed, and that said sync can take DAYS to be completed, that way I would have been warned to not send my siacoin to the wallet until the sync was completed, and I guess everybody would like to know something like this before using the Sia plataform/wallet.
I downloaded the wallet because I invested in Siacoins and wanted to keep them safe, but if I was a casual user that wanted to check how Sia worked and I saw how long it takes to properly work, I don't know if I would have the patience to wait for so long for the sync. I don't know the technicalities behind this, I'm just saying that something like this should be worked out to avoid losing potential new users.
