Alright, if so then this coin was also just a target of too early speculation as many in the space are. What features are you referring too? I thought that the SIA platform was already up and running for some time isnt it?
But in general I stick with my statement, marketing is key in this space, it has become more important than being able to deliver on your promises, therefore if you dont do it, other projects will have an advantage over you, even if your project has better features etc. I think one should not underestimate this in the current times.
Yes, the network is already working, and currently 3300 Terabytes of storage are available of which 100 are in use.
The problem is that the part of the code for renters needs to be optimized, to improve speed, scalability (currently renters can't upload more than 5TB) reliability and the ability to recover your files just with your recovery seed. All those items are in the roadmap, and actually the next version 1.3.1 that is about to be released on the next days will be a huge step forward in that direction.
Thanks for the information about this. I also think that speed and scalability are key components that need to be addressed to be superior than the competition. Do you know what the next version bring to the network in details? Or can you point me towards the source where I can read up on it? Thanks in advance!
