It's worth checking out Sia, which doesn't seem to get much attention: https://sia.tech/ https://sia.tech/
It works, they have an active development team, and the network keeps growing: https://siahub.info/map https://siahub.info/map
- eddiewang 9y agoIt also has one of the only dev teams in the decentralized storage space that truly understand the power (and more importantly, the limitations) of blockchain.
- nissehulth 9y agoAgree, Sia does look very promising. But plenty of work needs to be done before it is a real product. The first-use experience isn't good right now.
- brndnmtthws 9y agoHow many technically challenging products have been overnight successes? One thing that is really confounding about all the anti-blockchain rhetoric on HN is that people seem to expect these products to be finished instantaneously. Building great products takes years.
- nissehulth 9y agoTrue, but if you visit a site like http://sia.tech/ http://sia.tech/ , in my opinion it gives the impression of a product ready to use today. Though if you look at their roadmap https://trello.com/b/Io1dDyuI/sia-public-roadmap https://trello.com/b/Io1dDyuI/sia-public-roadmap , you get another (more realistic) picture.
- davidgerard 9y agoBlockchain has had eight years to come up with a use case that isn't a cryptocurrency. (And cryptocurrency has had eight years to come up with a use case that isn't illicit goods.) At this point, it's entirely reasonable to ask where the beef is.
- abrkn 9y agoIt got my attention. You can expect a review of Sia on shitcoin.com soon!
