So with Tokenly you send BTC to an address and the token you purchased is automatically sent to the address you sent the BTC from?

Hello!

The SJCXCARD sale has been a great success! In only 5 days over 32 cards have been sold!

We stopped seling those on counterwallet since it's painful to use. So we decided to work on
an alternative that is simpler for us and for the buyers.
We are now integrating with Tokenly to make your life simpler Smiley

Take your chance to get them now before the price increases

   Get the SJCX card

EverdreamSoft is happy to announce their collaboration with Storj and the launch of a special blockchain-based trading card, exclusively designed for Storj, playable within Moonga and Spells of Genesis games.

The SJCXCARD, playable as “Storj Library” can only be obtained by using Storjcoin X and there will ever be 1000 units. You can purchase the 1st SJCXCARD ever for only SJCX 54 (equivalent of USD 1), then the price will gradually increase, topping at USD 30 after 200 cards sold.

To learn more about our blockchain-based trading cards read the whole thread here.

Can anyone summarise in short, how does storj compare to sia? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-sia-decentralized-storage-1060294
Just considering if I should get some @ Poloniex.

Is that some anon fork scam ?   Comparing a well funded project with some premine scam ? lol give me a break..

Sia has been under development for longer than Storj. Conceptually I've been working on it since about July 2013. Coding started in December 2013, but we had to throw the whole project away about 3 times before we understood what we were doing. We did a crowd fund in May 2014, which also predates Storj's crowd fund. Then we went under the radar for 12 months while we worked away at the codebase. Had to throw everything away again in October, but we've finally got something that's going to work up to something between 50k and 1m users. That's good enough for us to keep the current project, but we'll have to keep improving on it as we approach that 1m mark. I'm not really sure where the next optimizations are going to be, but as super3 keeps saying you basically have to move as much as possible off-chain. Blockchains simply don't scale. Even Bitcoin is going to give up past ~50 million users.

We'll figure something out when the time comes. We've got a lot of ambition and 1 million users is a good starting place. That would fund a lot of R&D at the very least.

Tell me where I can buy the mining address and where I can download the Drive Share software. I have looked but can't find the information I need. I have my Storj on CP and I'm ready to give it a go.  Cheesy

I just carefully read the blog post and now I have new questions..

If i'm buying a test group B address with 10K does it count as a balance in the farming address?
Quote
Rewards are directly proportional to the SJCX balance held in farming address.

If I buy an address with 10K and I only have 500GB space for farming, while others "contribute" 1TB after changing the scale, will I get a lower reward ?

So if I use 10k Storj to get a Beta address, am I buying the address and "spending" my Storj or am I pledging the 10k Storj just for the duration of beta stage at which point I get them back?  Cheesy

Yes...  you are "spending" your 10k SJCX.

The point is to get them back...  and then some...  through your participation in the Test Group B!   Wink

Can't help you with the actual reward rates though...  the figures are not available yet.

Paying 10K SJCX to participate in the beta ? Are you being sarcastic ?

Thanks for the info.  Smiley If I buy a B address with 10000 Storj, do I ever get them back? Sorry if it's a dumb question but the info reads as if I buy and then depend on rewards after that and possibly not hold or get back the 10k Storj at any stage  Undecided

If you buy them, they are yours, you do need to spend them.  Wink

New to this thread. I didn't buy in the "sale" but I have 10k Storj and some diskspace. Can anyone say when I can get going? I seem to remember hearing that beta could be open to holders of min. 10k Storj?  Smiley Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.  Smiley

As mishax1 says + we have a blog post with more details about Test Group B:

My main concern is that their check for files is not deep enough and too long. Data from Test Group A should support this claim.

Their algorithms are good, but simply don't scale. Merkle based proofs are simply too much overhead. I expect files to be lost at some point, from any malicious attacker.

Will be keeping my eye on the network. There is definitely things we can learn from Sia.

... lol give me a break..

Hey, no offense Smiley I'm only trying to get different points of view here after reading this from sia-thread
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11477225

I prefer solid objective knowledge but I guess it will allways be somewhat biased no matter who you ask.
