i havnt received my confirmation email from stojtalk yet, even after i clicked resend.

with regard to the crowdsale on mastercoin, how do you plan to overcome the very issue that maidsafe guys encountered when they had theirs on the protocol?
Activated you manually.

The main problem was that those who wanted to do that crowdsale bought Mastercoin because it was valued over Bitcoin, and then the crowdsale ended in 5 hours. This left a bunch of people with Mastercoin when they really wanted Safecoin. The solution is simple. Either don't accept Mastercoin in the crowdsale, or place a way smaller percentage for Mastercoin.

That way the BTC holders are happy, and everyone is happy. Does that address your question?

In the event that this is open source, will you release the code before the crowdsale ?

It is open source. Wouldn't have it any other way. All our code is public. We will be constantly releasing code before and after the crowdsale.

We have our own forum now at http://storjtalk.org. We will be giving out 1 SJ0 per post when we do our crowdsale soon.

weariness for too much IPO. hope STORJ good lucky!
any patent problem with Storj ? http://www.jstor.org/
We are not doing an IPO. Thats only for silly little altcoins. Cheesy

We are doing a crowdsale so we can have more full time developers on the project. Working out the final details this week. I think once we release the details you will see that this is way different than what you are used to.

We should be fine on that.

I just tried to create an account there on the forum, but I keep getting "The following errors were detected in your registration. Please correct them to continue: You did not answer the verification questions correctly." I tried several times with different captchas...
Sorry about that. Was trying to weed out the spam, but might have made the questions/captchas too hard. Try again. If you have any problems then just ping me and I will add you manually.

I can undestand a "proof of backup" - I take a hash of my file at many different, wacky offsets, then ask for hashes made at these offsets every once in a while, to prove "they've" still got my data. But how do I know "they'll" actually send it to me when I need it?
Because you pay them for the transfer as well. If the don't deliver data for some reason you can terminate the contract and have the data hosted somewhere else.

do nodes get paid with storjcoins?
If your running the software on your computer you get paid in Storjcoin. If you are running a public node then you can get storjcoin or bitcoin.

"How are you going to distribute the initial coins, if not by proof-of-burn?"
For protocoin(let's just call it that for now) standard genesis address funding, most likely using the Angelshares model. We would rather use the BTC to further development then destroy it. I'm thinking of a very interesting equity and mining distribution. I'll be combining all the models that have seemed to have worked over the few months, and adding some of my own.

Quick question about an old post: Have you thought about using peershares for the initial ipo/coin distribution?
Because Storj is multi-token and multi-blockchain, we could perhaps release a token once peershares is stable and has a good feature set. As the Peercoin web lead, I'm watching Peershares very carefully anyways.
