Is it possible to earn SIA by sharing diskspace to the network?
Yes, but you cant make sc by renting out 100 GB on a pc thats on and off. There is an algorithm that lets renters know how stable your equipment is (online time), and penalty for low available disk space.So if I have a VPS with 1TB I could make some money? Or isn't it worth the trouble?
Siacoin is dead, no good
And you determined this how? By the fact that they recently hired a new dev, passed a storage milestone, and a new version is slated for release next month? Yep, sounds like a dead product to me!Siacoin is very strong and keep being top 100 since last year. I have bought siacoin at 20 sat and now I am still holding it, I hope I would earn more money if Sia has new releases, maybe next price will be 200 sat again.
There already 1.3.1 hosts on the network testing. https://siahub.info/network
