Siacoin & The new Minebox!

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Sup errrybody! 

Today I wanted to get some opinions on Siacoin and their new Minebox! 

I got into siacoin all on my own so I'm feeling extra proud of myself right now =) I got in on those crosshairs .00000295 until now I had made most my profits just kinda listening to others advice and opinions.

 

I was researching cheaper coins with decent volume and came across Sia, after visiting their website I thought it was a super cool idea! Second thought was; Of course there is already a cloud storage coin! After doing a little more research, that Siacoin was just looking and sounding too nice compared to the others (I dont speak full nerd but I get the gist). I believe this was just after Consensus, I read somewhere they had received a little attention there so I bought it, fuck it. 

Then I saw the Minebox!

 Its like a big ass hard drive where you can have your own files stored there and in the cloud as well, so you can access your files anywhere! You can then offer up your extra storage for other people's data to be stored in the cloud and you receive a siacoin payout for this! It comes in a 8tb or 16tb version available for preorder last I checked there are only 75 left out of 200! I hope to get one maybe this post is going to greatly lower my odds but if it sells out before I get a preorder ..

Vlado Petrushev hook me up for this great article Im writing you guys!!


However, if Vlado can't hook it up and they sellout, Im also wondering if it would be better to tryn just build my own minebox? Or if anyone else out here knows wether this thing is decently priced for the hardware or overpriced for its convenience of just plug n play. Also your thoughts on Siacoin itself! I've seen on twitter how they work together with storj and maidsafe, the 2 other main hitters in the cloud storage game I wonder how this will pan out!?  

Sort:  

I LOVE Siacoin! I think it is such an innovation! People are becoming more and more worried about their privacy and they are just going to become less trusting in the future.Therefore privacy is KEY and if I could move my data (Pictures,documents,music etc) from a cloud service who hold all my data and could access it without my knowledge etc. and break it up all over the world and keep an eye on it via the blockchain! That is why Sia is so awesome! Minebox is a really cool idea and I will definitely look into it! Thanks!
