Private and decentralized open-source cloud storage app with encrypted file sharing and media streaming support. With grants, we’re growing Sia together. See what we’re thinking and building. Discover how our decentralized, encrypted network p
At the Sia Foundation, our job is to make decentralized cloud storage secure and accessible, offering everyday people the same privacy and agency that security experts enjoy.
Siacoin (SC) is the native utility token of Sia, a blockchain-based distributed, decentralized cloud storage platform. Sia acts as a secure, trustless marketplace for cloud storage in which users can lease access to their unused storage space.
Sia is a decentralized cloud storage network that connects those with extra storage (hosts) to those who need affordable, distributed storage (renters), using a Proof-of-Work blockchain and storage contracts 1. Storage is paid for with Siacoin (SC), the n
Instead of forcing users to entrust their data to a centralized cloud storage network, we created a new decentralized one that can store — but not see — your data. At its foundation is a blockchain layer that supports the software above it.
Sia, however, has built a decentralized cloud storage network that relies on individual users running distinct network nodes and offering up their own excess storage space in an effort to foster a highly democratized infrastructure.
