Yesterday we celebrated 11 years of Sia! Join us in welcoming in not just another year around the sun, but a year of innovation, adoption, and real decentralized solutions that foster a more private, free, and decentralized future for all.
In 2008, the true innovation of #Bitcoin was user-owned money and self custody. This past month, we made that possible for your data.
👉 Sia Storage app for iOS and Android
📣 The Sia Storage App is live! Now, you can control your own data. Download from the App Store or Google Play, and receive 50 GB of free storage. Let us know what you think! ☁️ 🔐
@SiaFoundation For years, Sia was building the engine.
Now it feels like they’re building the bridge.
Not just storage.
Not just infrastructure.
But a way for ordinary people to own their data without thinking about the technology behind it.
Still here.
Still building. 🌱
Exactly— when your every bit and byte is data to be mined and exploited, it matters where your every email, photo, and video is being stored.
Sia Storage app on iOS and Android📲
(plus, 50 GB on the free account)
Big Tech doesn't want you to make the switch—not when your valuable data is free to mine, extract, and profit from.
Today, that changes. Download the Sia Storage App and own your data.
@SiaFoundation It’s been a long wait for this use case/app, but now it’s becoming a reality. Good times are ahead for our data/privacy and also for #SiaCoin 🤞🤭 #SC
Never lose a file again.
The Sia Storage App is now available on iOS and Android!
Your files are encrypted and erasure-coded on your phone then uploaded directly to the Sia network. No middleman ever sees your data. Download now.
