cant argue with that, you make some good points.
i got updated via blockfolio,
i always say btct is important but i see lots of projects just dont care to update it.
but also the quality from these forums have been reduced by too many scams.
so because everything you said i tried to look deeper into it.
the good thing is, i could sell all my coins now at once.
back in jan 2018 that wasnt possible

at binance there are only 20btc worth of buyorders.
volume in sell orders make me think the price never recovers.
let me quote a 3 day old reddit post for some good news:
Sia 3rd party ecosystem growing nicely!
I was thinking back on how the Sia conversation has shifted over the last few years. Here are some common topics I used to see ALL THE TIME in Slack and Discord chat.
When Binance? - June 13th, 2018 (
https://www.reddit.com/r/siacoin/comments/8qydr5/binance_lists_sc/)
When Ledger? - December 6th, 2018 (
https://www.reddit.com/r/siacoin/comments/a3pfe6/developer_release_of_sia_app_for_ledger_nano_s/)
When lite wallet? - In public beta now - 3rd party solution (

When dark mode? - April 1st, 2019 (
https://gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/-/releases)
When Plex? - July 26th, 2019 - 3rd party solution (Repertory:
https://bitbucket.org/blockstorage/repertory/src/master/)
When will it scale? - April 1st, 2019 (scales to dozens of TB/renter)
When file sharing? - in public beta, official release still several months out (
https://gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia/merge_requests/3830)
Instead, the conversation is dominated by:
New features in Siastats.info
New features in Decentralizer (

New integration Filebase.com
New integration goobox.io
New integration Sia central and Sia Host Manager (

Unprecedented network growth (
https://www.reddit.com/r/siacoin/comments/cz7xol/sia_just_hit_500_tb_of_used_storage/)
Plenty of pre-existing, and fully functioning integrations such as Duplicati, Pixeldrain, siasetup, easysia, siahub, etc.
The Sia ecosystem is very strong and growing rapidly. There are excellent 3rd party integrations for managing the host, renter, and wallet. And new integrations that leverage the renter API coming out frequently. Congratulations to the Sia team and everyone in the community. I've never felt so confident about Sia's future as I do right now.
What'd I miss?
all in all, ill sync it again and see how it goes...
