Welcome to the Sia Weekly Update! We’ll take you on a quick tour to get you updated on the latest news and info regarding the Sia Storage Platform.

Earlier this month we released Sia 1.5.4, the update that is required for the upcoming network hardfork. The hardfork institutes a dev fee that funds the Sia Foundation, a non-profit that will guide the future of decentralized storage, with a particular focus on the Sia storage network.
