Geographical distribution of Sia hosts


  • Global Moderator

    Distribution of active nodes right now, based on output of /hostdb/hosts/active. Note that some nodes are located at the same location and markers thus overlap on the map. Will be posting a dynamic version of this soon. Thought it was fun to share :-)

    Edit: Live, dynamic version now available at SiaPulse.tech.

    Thanks to osensei over at MoneroHash.com for helpful advice!

    That's really cool, we'll probably share this with our investors.



  • There are a few more nodes connected today so I updated the map correspondingly. Will have a site with a dynamic version of this, and more, up soon!

    Is there some way that we could get the dynamic version of this on the block explorer?



  • Absolutely! I will be launching a site soon at siapulse.com (nothing there yet) featuring the map and other stats (host reliability, hosts detected within a time window etc) and other tools (faucet, market statistics, conversions between SC and most major currencies, calculator + more). Its all coded in PHP + JS but should be straightforward to port. Once the code is decent I'm open to sharing any useful features for the block explorer. Its still work in progress though. Aiming to have this beast released in a week or two or three.

    Might I suggest siapulse.tech instead? Would be nice to keep all of the sia related domains on '.tech' so that we're consistent across the ecosystem.



  • I'll ask if my wallet agrees ;-) .tech is a bit pricey ($50+). And who doesn't like .com when a good domain is available!

    namecheap is selling .tech domains for $4.88/yr right now. I guess there's no guarantee that the price will keep up, but I don't think you have that guarantee on '.com' domains either.



  • Ok, I'm sold. Registered some .tech domains :-)
