Sia offers a cheaper, more robust, more effective, more reliable, inexpensive, and more robust data storage alternative than traditional alternatives.
David Vorick expressed: There are more than 10,000 websites and webapps currently using Skynet.
Trying to set up a nice little explorer page (with links to the list of apps), I learned that number this morning while doing some test builds. It probably won’t be ready for a bit yet
Further, The Sia L2 network is currently doing an estimated 20 billion micropayments per day. I believe this makes us the highest volume payment network in the entire world in terms of raw transaction count.
Community Queries: Is there a higher level, holistic health report? Existentially, – How widely spread are portal operators? – Are any operators profitable? – What happens if siasky_net registrar takedown by DHS? – What happens if The Portal Run By The Devs That Everyone Uses goes down?
Of Sia, Storj and Filecoin, Skynet-on-Sia appears to be the most thoughtful of the bunch. Trying to Ask the Right Questions before building on the apparent tech leader.
Can you post a link to a list of the apps that use Skynet? Awesome and great work! How many new users now per week?
One of the most beautiful things about this project is its organic growth which is one of the hallmarks of a healthy trajectory and solid foundations.
Skynet is the Future, Just like in Terminator. This is how it’s built, Done the RIGHT way.
Since when are you framing Sia a L2 David? (A layer 2 to which L1?) Sia has had an L2 on top of it since 2015.
What type of L2 is that? State channel tech similar to lightning? State channel tech, more similar to ILP than anything else. It’s got a bunch of wizardry in it though (ephemeral accounts, a merklized state machine, and a programmable instruction protocol)
That’s impressive. Generally speaking, what type of applications account for all the volume? Mostly CDN stuff (like webpage assets), and we transfer style stuff.
When did you create an ecosystem with high transfer speed? The technology that makes the current speeds possible was deployed in 2020.
Didn’t reflect price? Here for technology. Value is even more easily gamed. If you have 10 million dollars in crypto, you can hit $1 trillion transacted per day at just 1 tps. This is an engineering flex, we’re only doing as many transactions as makes sense to keep Skynet running smoothly and performantly.
