Limited Beta
Storj is offering a very limited beta. We want to get some good feedback as we develop this application. There are currently 16 slots available. If you reply to this topic early(just say you want in on the beta), I can just add you to this list. As we run out of spots, I'll reserve spots for people who provide interesting use cases, or want who want to help out.
If you miss this beta signup, just make sure to be signed up for our email list on Storj.io. Once Metadisk is a bit more polished we will be releasing it to everyone on our email list.

What is Metadisk?
Metadisk is the first storage focused blockchain-distributed web application, which means that there is no central authority or entity that controls your data. Metadisk runs on top of the Storj prototype platform, which allows users to sell their hard drive space for coins.
How does it work?
After the file is encrypted and uploaded, a SHA-256 hashing algorithm will be applied, which produces a hash of the file that serves both as a unique identifier and a way to detect file tampering. The generated hash will then be stored in a block chain entry. Metadisk communicates with the Storj network to find available storage resources, then transfers the encrypted file to three (3) separate locations. This 3-time storage complies with the cloud storage redundancy standard. Because all data that enters the network is encrypted, malicious nodes and thieves cannot open, copy or modify files, because they do not have access to the decryption keys for them.
The current functions and specifications that Metadisk offers are just a small prototype of Storj. Metadisk allows us to experiment with many methods and algorithms, while still providing user security, privacy, scalability, and cost savings over many current cloud storage systems.
