RE: STORJ - Decentralized Cloud Storage on the Ethereum Network
Hi @nightshift1134,
There isnt a set charge per month using Storj only being charged when storage used.
I dont think there is a way for any company to provide a an average users amount of data storage with a one time fee.
Sorry i meant for renting/sharing your free space payments or at least an estimated payout
Yes Siacoin is better in this aspect using the mining model, pays as is used and has its own smart contract's which I believe storage deals can be made between stoarge providers and consumers.
There is a possible sceanrio with Storj, if all user were to leave network it would cease to function but that is no longer a problem due to the amount of users and storage providers combined at 43K and with the new user base on Ethereum is a very unlikely possibilty.
I'm currently testing siacoin as well for whatever storj doesn't use. I can't wait till maidsafe hits alpha 2
Maidsafe does look like a good product one problem is the fact they don't use blockchain, this could lead to a lower level of security vs blockchain storage but will remain to be seen and won’t really be fully known until is released at scale.
