During 2018, the Sia network forked into four different projects, with independent developing teams, blockchains and storage marketplaces. Amidst an environment of competition and claims about the levels of support between the projects, pan-Sia shows unbiased and verifiable data about the key parameters of their storage marketplaces and mining networks. The code of the data collector is open source (see below), providing auditability to these statistics.

The data for "Active hosts" corresponds to hosts online and accepting contracts (those displayed with a /hostdb/active call). The "Online hosts" toggle displays data for all the online hosts, either accepting or not contracts. For Sia, only hosts using version 1.3.7 or above are considered. For SiaClassic, only hosts using version 1.3.5 or below are considered. Data is updated every 30 minutes.



(*) On November 23th 2019, the host databases of all the network daemons were "refreshed". This made some hosts, previously absent on the databases, to show again correctly as online. You can read more about the issue here. This "refresh" was done for all the forks at the same time to keep the fairness in the network comparison.



(**) On September 20th 2020 Hyperspace was officially declared abandoned by its main programmer after 1.5 years of innactivity. Data about this fork will keep being presented as long as the blockchain produces blocks, same as with the rest of chains.
