If you put the data on Storj DCS, it would run about $40k/month for list pricing with global availability and encryption. I'm sure you could get a deal if you asked though. It has S3 compatibility, so would be plug and play with w

There is discount pricing over 100 TB. Its a tech demo so Tadigrade.io sponsors it. Pretty powerful demo on easily storing large amounts of data especially when Github goes down.

It is a tech demo of https://tardigrade.io , because easily storing all of Github certainly gets peoples attention. Its only expensive because cloud providers overcharge. The listed prices on Tardigrade start at half of Amazon S3

Have been increasing sync speed over time. It about double where it was a few weeks ago. It definitely does take some time to upload so much data.

The total cloud market is around $180B. 90% are on running Linux, and 2/3 are running on OSS. If it is not in the billions its not enough.

What really should happen is that the large cloud companies (really just Google, Amazon, and Azure) should be providing a portion of the revenue generated to the open source projects. The open source companies would make more features and d

Filecoin whitepaper came out a few months before the Storj one. Filecoin however is not functional, while Storj has been functional for about 8 months.

CEO of Storj here. You can sign up to use Storj and get the tools working to upload/download your files in 60 seconds. Last time I tried to use S3 it was 12 steps, and a phone call. Its faster, more secure, 50% cheaper than traditional

While we are excited we got the grant I kinda agree. Our stuff like the whitepaper ( https://storj.io/storj.pdf ) or KFS ( http://blog.storj.io/post/150825969108/introducing-kfs-a-loc... ), allowing y
