Following Nebulous's decision to perform a hard fork (on October 31, 2018) to drop all non-Obelisk ASICs from the Sia network, three alternatives have emerged for the owners of non-Obelisk miners: Hyperspace, SiaClassic, and ScPrime (originally SiaPrime).In the table below we have summarized some of their most important aspects, to help you decide where to move your miners.(If you find any inaccuracy, please send us an email!)PoolsSiaMining has set up a mining pool for each of the 3 Sia derivatives, giving miners full freedom to decide what to mine. The switch can be performed by simply changing the port number in your miner's configuration.Here are the direct links to the pools:Comparison TableFull disclosure: SiaMining is not affiliated with any of the projects below. In order to remain neutral, we have declined any monetary contribution (in any form, including premines) from these projects.
